Wordless Wednesday – Tega Cay Ladder 1

Random Thoughts Tuesday…ahh

• My oldest boy learned to ride a motorcycle before he could ride his bike. I think learning how to not have to learn how to pedal helped…crazy motorcycle says he should be 12…whatever!
• What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger!
• I love my Fathers day gift – the 16 Gig iPod Touch…I wish everywhere had WiFi then I wouldn’t be Jonesing for an iPhone
• Boys should learn how to sew…girls should learn to change a tire
• I crocheted a scarf for my wife
• My current max bench is 225
• Felt I should say what my max bench was after I said I could crochet
• Climbed to the top of a Ladder 1 (77′) a few hours ago to see what the top of Walmart looked like
• Should really do my post way before 2:00 am
• I liked (and still do) Duran Duran when it wasn’t “cool” for guys to like Duran Duran
• I could put the song “It Takes Two” on repeat for a solid day and never hear it to much and even though I can’t rap love to try to rap with it
• Spent 30 minutes finding the best music video to show you how good Rob Base and DJ Easy Rocks “It Takes Two” really is.

Wordless Wednesday – Spongebob Haters

Random Tuesday Thoughts: Hmmm

Visit the UnMom

• This is the second time I have done RTT
• I love Google Analytics because it shows that at least 1 person comes to this site and actually a lot more than I thought would
• My wife just learned that I have this blog
• I hate Google Analytics because it shows nobody is viewing my fire training site…where there should be people viewing it (http://training.tcvfd.com has 2 loyal viewers and one is me)
• I am done with all the candy that I like in the 5.6 pound bag of candy that my wife got
• Can’t understand why I gained weight this week …approximately 5.6 pounds
• has finished w/o EAS Active workout number 6
• suffering from Coke withdrawal symptoms
• Is addicted to seeing a number near the comments in WP Dashboard
• Clowns are Evil…that’s just the way it is
• I love me some Captain Crunch
• 911 is not the fastest number to dial on a rotary phone
• I feel old cause I remember when phones had a rotary dials
• Thinks he should set an example and change the batteries in the smoke detectors 2 times a year like we tell everyone when we do fire education talks.
• Checked to see if WiiDads.com was available…its not… cyber-squatters have staked their claim
• I like to end my post with videos although I forget sometimes
• I like this British public service announcement

Wordless Wednesday – FF8

FF8 Wear

FF8 Shirt

The short story, since this is suposed to be Wordless, I got the Firefighter of the Year in 2008 for Tega Cay. Chief thinks I am a little to cocky for my own good and nicknamed me “FF of year” What kind of nickname is that? A nickname is something you can yell. Something like “Speedy” (my Fort Mill Fire Dept. nickname and yes the Highway Patrol was involved). What I have learned by having a last name like Bugert is if you embrace a nickname and change it a little you can make it what you like. So I had the shirt made and called myself FF8. At the bottom of the shirt it says “If I only had a little humility, I would be perfect” ~Ted Turner. How’s that for cocky?!  BTW I am wearing my EA Active Boxing Hulk Gloves. Yeah my wii is Pimped. Tomorrows post will be on my pimping of my EA Active.

Random Tuesday Thoughts – When I grow up?

I am getting older by the year and well I would think by now I would know exactly what I want to do when I grow up. I’ve been at my job now for 5 years …wow 5 years! I haven’t done anything that long. I have been an engineer, cnc programmer, insurance adjuster, short order cook (that sucked), stock boy, flower delivery boy (which surprisingly was a great job) and now a web developer. The only thing that is constant through all that time is being a firefighter. Maybe that is what I want to do. Nope I know exactly what I want to do watch TV and surf the web. Now all I have to do is figure out how to make money at it. On a totally random aside I have to remember to take a picture tomorrow for Wordless Wednesday.

I love Kit Kat bars!

My wife looks like the Tooth Fairy (a very cute one I might add) …our oldest lost his 1st tooth…he used the wii remote to take it out.

Had to much Mountain Dew

Born to be Wild

Had to much MtDew

I had a lot of Diet Mountain Dew today and it shows. I broke out my camera today at lunch and decided to have my own little photo shoot and being the lazy guy I am…I never left my seat. I have been envious of all the geared up cameras and the amazing shots I see continuously and of course I have to attempt to do that also. Thankfully I have some skills in Photoshop and can take a ehh shot and make it look halfway decent. So here is some of the ‘decent’ shots of my office after I took a bunch of ehh shots (and I do mean ehhhhhhhh).  Most all of the shots were way to dark but by using the fancy “Levels” Photoshop feature I was able to make most of them look well lit.

I wasn’t quite happy with this post so I also included some shots of the kids playing in traffic. Luke has totally learned how to ride his bike now after first leaning to ride his electric motorcycle.
