Every company has payroll problems. It is a hugely complicated and labor intensive part of having employees. The only reason this made the news is because of the sensationalism. Some were overpaid too, showing that this is all an honest (and mabye ignorant) mistake. I have been shorted and overpaid more times than I can count. That people blame bush for payroll errors is absurd. Mike

Who do you work for? I was a Chief Dispatcher in San Bernardino for the BNSF but I exercised my seniority and am moving back to Ft. Worth as a Dispatcher. Being in management sucks! Mike

Keely, Those remind me of the Nam when I was droppin napalm on Charlie, Oh yeah, I might not be moving to TX, perhaps Lake Havasu instead. Mike

Having my nuts bit off by a Laplander, thats no way for a man to go...... anyone hear that before? Mike

Eric is my favorite RW guy and the ONLY other NASCAR lover at Perris. Im sooo glad he is a miracle case. He is so well loved at Perris by everybody. I remember a hybrid jump with him where I was hanging from his chest strap in a stand and his visor on a full face flew up. I felt him squirm but I wouldn't let go. We had a good laugh after.....Oh yeah Eric, Ill keep your Vette exercised, even though it is an auto..... Love ya man, Mike Skaggs 8,15,1 & 3 forever

I was there last night and it was awesome, aside from standing in line 3 hours. The rediculous part was that everybody was in costume and they still checked ID'seven though most people had wigs and heavy makeup on....What would you do in that situation though? We got in at 4 AM this morning, slept for an hour and drove to Perris for the Film Festival Party. My liver hates me. Mike

All this is funny, and belive me, I like to bash California too but when 3 of my employees are standing in front of me crying because they lost everything and I am asking them to work anyway, it is not so funny. Only the people that have seen someone after their house burned can understand....This is a very bad situation that will affect many more people than 9-11, not in deaths but in total number of people that are suffering.. Mike

I work in San Bernardino, which is right in the middle of 2 big fires. Anyway, I am leaving work at 0500 after 14 hours of hell. I was tired and driving slow in the right lane of a 35 mph 4 lane road in a shopping center. I saw a car in the far right lane (my lane) coming right at me head on! I swerved and missed the car by a foot or so. The oncoming car took no evasive action. It was really close. After I made sure I didnt crap my pants, I turned around to confront the drunk (as any good Texan would) and possibly beat the shit out of him. The oncoming car had turned into a parking lot and was sitting there in a spot with the lights on. In front of the car in the bushes, was a mexican man beating the hell out of something with a claw hammer. Im thinking, this isn't a drunk, it is some methed out tweaker killing his dealer!!!!! I sat there with my brights shining on him from 30ft and he never even looked my way. I then noticed someone in the car. The person in the car got out, and it was some old black lady that stumbled like she was drunk and she didnt even notice the guy in front of her car still beating thee crap out of something. I pulled around the corner, rolled down my window to talk to the lady and she ignored me. There was another lady outside and I asked her if she was drunk. "Por Que" was the answer. I then noticed the Dialasys Clinic sign and realized she must have been low on blood sugar, not drunk. I called the CHP and they came and ensured that her daugter would drive her home. The Mexican guy turned out to be a gardner, I still have no idea why he was beating the bushes with a claw hammer at 0500 along with 3 of his buddies. I had no idea that diabetics could be so dangerous and ...well...it was just a freaky ass morning and I had to tell someone....Oh yeah, the ashes were an inch deep on my car too.....These fires are unbelieveable. Mike

Can anyone believe he is alive after that? That is an equal or worse to Geoff Bodines Daytona Truck Crash. Mike

Nice....very nice.... Mike

oh yeah....ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!

I went to college in Tuscaloosa, AL is a crappy place to live but the girls are hot and everyone is polite. Mike

Your words are too big....You lost me at protagonisisition.

Dude, Gay people are the best. My best employees are gay, my landlord is a gay skydiver and the nicest guy ever, Queer Eye for a Straight Guy is one of my favorite shows. But, I was taught to be a homophobe in my redneck upbringing. Luckily, I figured it out. Closet, flamer, whatever.....Gay people rock! Mike (straight as an arrow)

What if everyone adoped the 10 commandments, and them only, as the worlds religion? It's simple and if everyone did itm the world would be much nicer...Mabye we could exclude #7... 1. I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 2. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. 3. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them. 4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 5. Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long. 6. Thou shalt not kill. 7. Thou shalt not commit adultery. 8. Thou shalt not steal. 9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. 10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's.

But then none of us would get to heaven. I figure theres a 50/50 chance of a Trinity or 70 virgins and endless wine.......I see why people turn to Islam.....Heeven is a big party!

I firmly believe 9-11 and the resulting agression is a religious war. It is NOT over oil but stupid ass ancient religions. Why can't we all just get along?

I just watched the movie Patriot Games for the 10th time and I don't get it. What is the beef with the Irish and the Brits? It seems so insane, they both talk the same, like warm beer and ....I just dont get it.....I can see why the people in the Mideast hate us...but not this....what up? Mike

All rigs have to have it at Perris...Since the weather is crappy, the loft did mine today with no wait. They have extras. Plan on this weekend being a zoo though.

I got mine done today. It is pretty involved. They put a tag on your cable and write the AD compliance on your pillow if you got one.

Why did Helen Kellers dog run away? Youd run away too if you were named "blaahhhooofffgghhhhssss"

Keely, How do you figure letting bulls run down a street as torture? Better not go back to Texas with that hippy crap. Come over an do my website. Mike

Yes I do....I cant use the demo Crossfire for the baloon jumps...Ill be there till 5 pm sat.

Heres What Im thinkin....Drive to Lost Prarie for the whole boogie, Drive to Oshkosh for about 3 days of the Airshow then to Rantoul about August 4 or 5. Then drive to Memphis spend a day then to Dallas for 3 days then home. Ill take the Cobalt 135 if youll let me use it. Ill be at the DZ all day tomorrow. You? Mike
