so what are you studying in school?

*78 Chevyrado* · 01-19-2010, 06:36 PM

Yeah 2009 was the worst yet since like 93 or 94. This year will be better though cuz the vultures/theives/people who were around causing BS are gone and never never coming back or they go to prison, not jail.. heheh And my uncle had the kemo done to his prostate cancer, and surprisingly after approx 30 treatments it never affected him (made him sick) and it's all fixed up now they said.

I done figured if I ever do get married there will at a bare minimum be a pre-nup for the truck. It will say, no matter what happens, I get my truck, the bike, the big TV and every single tool. lol

Hope everything gets easier for yall Panhead and Rusty.

JohnC · 01-19-2010, 06:42 PM

Keep your head up Mark. Things will get better this year!

S10Fan · 01-19-2010, 06:58 PM

Wife? I sure did better the second time. The first one, Satan's sister, no doubt.

Thanks for sending her to me, Bryan. Sounds like my first wife, too. I definitely traded up.

Good for you!

My Dad (RIP Pop) once told me that if I had killed her I'd be out on parole by now. LOL.

73step · 01-19-2010, 08:32 PM

**old Rusty C10** · 01-19-2010, 08:43 PM

the first and the second time...i thought she looked familiar

*BGRAFX* · 01-19-2010, 09:31 PM

You guys seriously have me cracking up. I agree, my exwifes dad tried to kick in my front door friday night to pick up my son. I lost my house and a truck in 2009 to the divorce. but got great kids and will soon have a new crewcab shortbed.

Love this forum!!! You guys are amazing.

S10Fan · 01-19-2010, 09:41 PM

My divorce was worth every penny!

She caused me 6 years of direct aggravation and an additional 5 years of residual aggravation. She now lives with her father in Florida, no doubt shortening his life as we type.

Rollinsqrbdy · 01-19-2010, 11:56 PM

I think 2009 was a doozzy for alot of us but heres to a great 2010

. Also that is a clean sweet truck. Keep ur head up bud. We'll get through it together

**old Rusty C10** · 01-20-2010, 12:42 AM

the words of hope are that i got rid of my ex wife and i met a wonderful woman who is my wife now.. i can honestly say ive never been happier since ive met my current wife.
as to the ex i would get upset because every morning id see her face on the iodine bottle and not the milk carton

that is a good one and one that I am going to use...thank you sir

JohnC · 01-20-2010, 10:58 AM

Guess I'm a lucky one. My first, and hopefully only, wife is awesome. Yeah we have our issues from time to time, but at the end of the day I love her more than when the day started.

However, since she was married before maybe I'm the god send.

She just calls her ex-husband a sperm donor, and says she had Mad Cow disease.

I feel the same way about my current wife, and the same thing my wife was married to a gambler who lost everything including their apartment , furniture, cars etc. and he was constantly cheating and abusive to boot.
Not only do i never abuse or cheat on my wife but i treat her with respect, cherish her, spoil her when i can, help support her kids and our grandkids, but ive provided her with stability and we hold each other up when the other is weak,, its a wonderful thing
Ive learned that life is like a game of bridge... if you dont have a good partner you better have a good hand ( and if you dont have a good partner youre not playing the game)

S10Fan · 01-20-2010, 03:29 PM

Amen Bob and John, come March me and Mrs. S10 will have 20 years on the books.

Billetmaster · 01-20-2010, 04:31 PM

Wow. Reading this thread makes me feel even more blessed than I normally do.

Life is great. Had a fantastic 2009 and looking forward to a better 2010.

Just celebrated 23 years with the one and only wife last month. 4 great kids. 2 great jobs. 1 great truck.
