beed's casa.......literally

there's a reason why the beedstah ain't been postin'. it's because he has been workin' his culo off on the casa. beed has a new digital camera and is gonna share some photos with ya. this first photo is of a bastard lily that ended up next to beed's fence that surrounds the pool.



why did beed call it a bastard lily? cuz beed has about 9 zillion of them around his fence but every one of them look like the yellow ones below. the red one is at the very end. beed don't know what transformation took place but it happened somehow. we didn't plant it. the yellow ones around the fence are in full bloom now and beed will add an updated photo of all of 'em later.

below is a recent project that beed undertook. in the corner of the beed estate the water company for whatever reason saw fit to put beed's and 3 neighbor's water meters. the only problem is 2 of 'em were completely covered with dirt.....this begs the querstion. how in the hell were those guys checkin' how much agua we been usin' with those things covered up?

anyhoo beed got out his trusty hoe (not his trusy ho', that's an entirely different post....j/k) and chopped all the grass and dirt and unearthed the two meters that had been buried alive. he then took some landscape timbers (from the sandbox that beed disassembled) and spiked them into the ground.

then he used some of that black netting that is supposed to keep any grass or weeds from growing. it looked like this.

he then took one indentured servant (miguelito) who looks like this.

and we spread river pebbles around it. it now looks like this.

beed has also been workin' his culo off on opening his pool. when he drained it it looked like the photo below. after much cleaning and scrubbing he painted it with two coats of rubber based pool paint. 65 freakin' dollars per gallon X 4 gallons thank you very much.

added a new diving board, the one in the photo was cracked. replaced all of those missing tiles and grouted the entire thing. beed will post a new photo of the finished project when he posts the new photo of the lilies.

this is a photo of his 20 year old japanese maple.....it's gorgeous. it was only about 2 feet tall when beed planted it.

here is a shot of the beed casa. notice the landscape timbers lining beed's po' white trash gravel driveway. also from the former sandbox. as you can see, beed is not just a hoops expert. he is a man of many talents. he wears many hats.

landscape timber technician, pool painter, plumber, carpenter and last but certainly not least.....female eye candy.

your buddy,

the busy one.

pop ups and virus' beed hates 'em

some background. beed's old computer gave up the ghost around a year and a half ago. monitor was fine, printer was fine so beed got online at work and got on bestbuy.com.

found the computer he wanted and ordered it. it would arrive the next day at the local best buy. you walk in with your confirmation emails go to the service desk and you are out of there in less than 3 minutes. it's the only way to do it.

the new computer came with some very good pop-up blockers and anti-virus s.w. from norton. as the first year wuz coming to a close it would pop up a reminder that it was nearing expiration.

bein' the procrastinater that he is beed would always click on remind me later. it got down to the last couple days and beed finally sat down and paid 80 bucks for a 2 year renewal.

beed is no techno-dweeb but he's always been pretty good at loading software. not this time. it took beed's money and downloaded the software but after repeated attempts, beed could not get the software to activate.

having a short temper at times beed just said "f' it, i'll work on it later". or get dahbicito to work on it. he is a techno-dweeb.

a couple months passed and the computer was almost rendered unusable due to pop-ups and some faggoty-assed homepage jackin' virus. every time you would kill one webpage numerous more would pop up.

so last saturday beed rolled up his sleeves (you know that ain't true cuz beed always wears sleeveless shirts in the summer to better sport his tattoo) and went to work.

FINALLY.....FINALLY was able to activate the software. did a full system scan and it had 7 worms and thousands......yes, thousands, that's right THOUSANDS of virus's. 99 percent of them were in miguelito's folders. beed made him watch them all increment as his folder was being scanned.

at the end......norton had worked it's magic and beed's computer is disease free and workin' great.

beed tries not to hate anybody. it's just such a negative emotion. but there are times where beed hopes there is a special place in hell for certain folks. for example, child molesters .....halliburton cronies, enron folks.....there should be a place in hell for them where even the devil walks in with one of those oriental fans in his hand and says "damn boys, it sho is hot in herr!!!!!!"

the people that design virus's and worms and such and homepage jackers, beed hopes there is a special place for those folks too.

beed's computer surfin' these days is kinda like drivin' in one of kramer's luxury lanes. smooth and wide open. 80 bucks for two years protection......dot ain't nuttin'!!!!

your buddy,

virus free,

dahbeed

i am a free throw machine!

no, make that.....i am a free throw god!

the old basketball goal was in bad shape. the neighborhood boys and beed's sons been hoopin' it up since we opened the pool. the old backboard developed a crack in it and beed had to replace it monday.

beed hasn't shot any real hoops in a couple years so he started foolin' around shootin' some free throws after puttin' the goal up.

he hit 9 out of 10 one time but couldn't seal the deal on 10 for 10. yesterday afternoon beed wuz bustin' dahbicito's chops about shootin' freebies. we would shoot until we missed and then the other got to shoot.

beed hit 13 in a row at one point. final tally 42-50 free throws hit. 84%. not bad for a 46 year old white boy that ain't picked up a ball but a couple times in the last few years.

on the 50th attempt beed dribbled it 3 times, pulled the ball back and found the seam with his middle finger, bent his knees, cocked the ball back........looked at his son and closed his eyes and let it rip. booyah!!!!! nuttin' but net. all beed's boy could say wuz "you can be such a prick"

guilty as charged. beed don't know why he enjoys bein' "such a prick" at times but he just does. he's not that way all the time as many can attest. beed can be a very nice guy.

but it wuz fun talking trash to his 19 year old son. and it's always fun to shoot hoops even if it's on the backyard court.
