About Me
- Jerry
- Born in Memphis, TN many moons ago. Educated at East High School and Christian Brothers University in the mysteries of Electrical Engineering. Married for 36 years this year to the same lovely lady with three beautiful children. Lived in LA, WV, IN, IL and essentially all-over TX (well, at least on business trips). Love my family deeply, feel very blessed by God (more than I deserve) and appreciative of all the friends I have made in this life! My first car was a Chevy II Nova (in upper right of my picture) - one of the first Nova's of this type made. It had a straight 230 cu in six and Torque Drive. Torque Drive meant it had no clutch but you still had to shift it from first to second when starting out (second to third was automatic). Very unique car. I loved it! Now I have a Mustang GT (going on 19 yrs old) given to me by my wonderful wife and it is still a blast. I now have a new daughter - the beautiful lady my son married! So thankful for all my family!

Coffee anyone?
Well, this morning started with a bang! I went down to our Starbucks coffee shop (yes, we have our own - right in the building where I work!) and the girl who works there in the shop (who is always nice) filled my order, proceded to hand me the coffees (white chocolate moca for me, regular chocolate moca for Sheila) and the lid popped off the chocolate moca and boom - it spilled all over my pants! Needless to say she was upset and apologetic but I told her not to worry about it - I'm wash and wear! LOL So, how did your day start today? LOL - Love to all, Jerry

What...no cell phone photo to go with this story!? Ouch...hope it was not too hot! Did you go home?
Yeah, sorry no photo of the stains. Lol.... But no, it didn't burn me. I was jumping out of the way as I saw the lid pop off and the cup tilt in my direction and the coffee had poured all the way across the counter top (stainless steel) so it had cooled "some" before it got to me so I was fine. The poor girl that works there was so apologetic as she cleaned up the mess! Lol. I stayed the day because after the coffee dried, it didn't show up too bad and to go home change and come back would have taken 1 hour out of my day. I guess I'll just learn to bring and extra pair of pants on days when I go to the coffee shop! LOL
Pretty nice to have Starbuck's at your office! That would be hard to resist...especially about 2:30 every day. I'll have to try the mocas.
