Well, I just finished putting together my daughters Barbie Jeep. I had no idea it was going to take so long. I thought when I bought it all I had to do was pop the battery in and away she'd go on Chrismas. I opened it up to put it under the tree and suprise there were a million pieces and stickers that had to be put together and applied. So after a couple of hours Santas now headed to bed. Can't wait to see her eyes light up in the morning. Theres nothing in this world better then that. Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all get what you want!

Damn, you said the key words "Lost my buzz". You hit it right on the head. I poured myself some crowne and coke before I started and later found myself pissed off(Just a little)without a buzz. To many damn stickers is an understatement. I am making up for it as I type this though. :D

Damn, You're right thats what I get. I NEVER read what the damn box says when it comes to toys. I just look at the picture and say "cool my daughter is going to love that." But in the end I end up hating it. They should have GIANT bold print that says:
WARNING:
This product takes at least an hour to put together. It is not recommended that you partake in alcohol consumption. If you do there is a risk that it may take you at least an extra hour putting this "Made in China" product together. We have purposely hired 3rd world countries to make our products knowing damn well the rest of the work will have to be done by dumb ass Americans (Me) willing to buy American products (so we think) made in 3rd world countries (That pay children 3 dollars a month to work in sweat factories building this crap) so as to save a buck, then turn around and sell the product for 300.00 when it costs 10.00 to make. Then we'll claim we are bankrupt(Tyco) after paying, no giving our top executives millions of dollars in stock, penthouses, luxury cars, escorts, fine dinners, private jets, etc. In the end unfortunately we have to pass it on to you the dumb ass American consumer. Thank goodness you buy our products or else we wouldn’t be able to afford our lifestyles. Hey did I mention Enron...Sheeesss, I could go on and on, but bottom line is we all eat it in the end. Damn see what crown does to me. Someone get me a coffee quick!!!!!!Geeeeez did I get off my topic a little???

Hey Im off to bed for sures now. Hey Mike(Rexone Marine) thats a nice town you live in. I have freinds who live in La Verne cool ass city. Hey Rod, I'll give you props for living in Kingman. I used to pass through that town as a kid on my way to Tijeras New Mexico. It was always good to see kingman cause I knew I was finally out of CA. and on the way back It was cool cause I knew I was getting close to Cali.(You know how it is on a vacation you want to get out and your stoked to go on your trip but a week later you are telling yourself I can't wait to get back). Oh and K3 I give you props just for being up. Damn the Midwest(Land of Tornados, snow, dust, but some fine ass women as well). Hope you get to Havasu this coming spring or summer(And if you do bring some of those fine ass midwest women with ya). Night all!!!!!

Love those kids toys.
A few years ago we decided to buy my daughter a swing set from Santa. We put it together XMAS EVE, it was 25 degrees that night. We finished it at 2am (it's still standing 6 years later). We woke up to 10" of snow XMAS morning, what surprise for her. wink

Unleashed, I know what you mean. I can Build a 100,000 sq. ft. building, and pull and replace a small block in a day. These damn toys drive me to drink every time!!! (Wife-"It doesn't say grinder in the instructions" Me- "Humph. Leave me alone.")
Gotta love it though.
Merry Christmas All

Deano
Unleashedclothing (http://www.unleashedclothing.com) The drive is about 4.5-5 hours pulling the boat, not bad.
Have not had any problems with where I live in west lancaster. There can be problems anywhere. I live at the end of street with no exit, that helps. Still get people that want to speed down the street to get no where. I put cones out to make them slow down, helps a little. One neighbor (who speeds) called the police to complain, they came out and we talked for 45 minutes about boats and cars after he saw mine. Said keep the cones out there.
