I don't know why I never put anything on it but that is a good thing. I also don't know why I haven't tried to close the account sooner. Nonetheless, I tried to close it today and when I called to close it I found out that my account has been removed from their system and my account is inactive. So I told the lady, "well I just want to close it because I've never put anything on it". So she says to me, "I can't close it, the only way to close it is to write a letter <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">stating</span> that I want to close the account". Then I asked her if she meant like a hand written letter. She replied "YES, let me give you the address you can send it to". I quickly cut her off and said, " no thanks I don't need the address because I will not be writing a letter to close this account". Then I told her that it was <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">ridiculous</span>. She replied "yeah, <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">I'm</span> sorry". Oh yeah, everything she said was in broken <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">English</span> might I add. Anyway, I quickly told her thanks and hung up. I'll put a Snickers bar on that card to reactivate it before I write a letter to close my account.<br /><br />So I'f you get a Best Buy card either keep a balance on it or cancel it. Or you can just do like me and give your buisness to someone else.johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-16425488183225597982009-04-08T14:17:00.000-07:002009-04-08T14:18:24.136-07:00UNCJust to re-cap......I hate <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">UNC</span> with an almighty burning passion that will probably never end!!!!johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-4533177926830245952009-03-29T16:56:00.000-07:002009-03-29T17:06:20.719-07:00TigerSo Tiger Woods wins again today, not that he is on a winning streak though. This is his first win since his knee surgery. It wasn't just a normal win though, he was 5 shots down going into the final round today. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Saun</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">O'hair</span> was sitting pretty with a 5 shot lead over Tiger. The worst thing <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">O'hair</span> did was get out of the bed, he shot a 73 and Tiger shot a 67. Oh yeah and Tiger sinks like a 25 foot putt on the 18<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">th</span> hole to win, I mean really. I didn't get to see the likes of Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, and Arnold Palmer. But I think it's safe to say he is the greatest golfer to walk the face of this earth and I can't wait to tell my kids and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">grand kids</span> about him.johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-90219821045732009182009-03-28T09:09:00.000-07:002009-03-28T09:25:54.790-07:00NBAWell Duke lost, excuse me....Duke got BLOWN out by <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Villanova</span> who will now play Pitt.<br /><br />They couldn't have beat <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Gaffney</span> high Thursday night.

I know in drivers ed. there was a question that was something like...If 4 cars get to a 4 way stop at the same time, who has the right of way?? THAT NEVER HAPPENS!!!! So please if you know how to go through a 4 way stop kudos to you. If you are one of those drivers who gets to a 4 way stop and sits there, then make your decision on when to go based on movement.....GET OFF THE ROAD.<br /><br />Most likely if you did not agree with the above statement, you should probably GET OFF THE ROADjohnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-81243068398466382792009-03-03T16:47:00.000-08:002009-03-03T16:59:02.211-08:00Did someone say snow?<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwVmNXgJlmHQ7fCHoJJWHDobl6QvDjk1xWXag6FgORdTYwBSSG309DQAzYSoet8OxqEEVJoCbVH13czMqTtSmKqqQXbyhKbhjUh4xLlAq6EmWTqO7XkbKWTEABh8z7PFzK2tS8QkqRNBs/s1600-h/DSCF1095.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309128390742307938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwVmNXgJlmHQ7fCHoJJWHDobl6QvDjk1xWXag6FgORdTYwBSSG309DQAzYSoet8OxqEEVJoCbVH13czMqTtSmKqqQXbyhKbhjUh4xLlAq6EmWTqO7XkbKWTEABh8z7PFzK2tS8QkqRNBs/s320/DSCF1095.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYNtwCrxRdAgDboqA7sp3IBu_GqOucP7nqjT-7vbFjnVdbDRNC5ulv-RFqZ366fhxj9oQ1C7FJ2uUtHFLu4fNFwYTI8a_PTzI6DnxR5h4CFRtyYbeRtieNviz37hVMTExZ1V1JO7kbg2A/s1600-h/DSCF1093.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309128112683109378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYNtwCrxRdAgDboqA7sp3IBu_GqOucP7nqjT-7vbFjnVdbDRNC5ulv-RFqZ366fhxj9oQ1C7FJ2uUtHFLu4fNFwYTI8a_PTzI6DnxR5h4CFRtyYbeRtieNviz37hVMTExZ1V1JO7kbg2A/s320/DSCF1093.JPG" border="0" /></a>Grassy Pond Rd. looking toward Twin Bridge Rd., that car just turned off of Twin Bridge </div><div></div><div>About 4 hours after this picture was taken there were 3 trucks that got stuck about 400 yards behind and to the left of that basketball goal.....One of them was mine.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>If did this year round <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">I'd</span> love it, OK maybe not year round but I could deal with 10 months a year.....really</div><div></div><div><br /><br /><div></div></div>johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-85303040292586704012009-03-03T16:37:00.000-08:002009-03-03T16:47:01.725-08:00Snow dayz<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxz6h135dSTkFY_1VCqOHa84b7Qp_IL2rwHeoVtmaMS_TawmdFYUqAEjeNK9V-ciyMVRH3dXwgtbgxyhHZtqPgmfbQfyWKGftBAsJDV4M7Coxvkq88NoaUwKnpK_kIYtCaR06WbvjEQFQ/s1600-h/DSCF1092.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309127046442635426" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxz6h135dSTkFY_1VCqOHa84b7Qp_IL2rwHeoVtmaMS_TawmdFYUqAEjeNK9V-ciyMVRH3dXwgtbgxyhHZtqPgmfbQfyWKGftBAsJDV4M7Coxvkq88NoaUwKnpK_kIYtCaR06WbvjEQFQ/s320/DSCF1092.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoDBgonDD1a2KM4WHDld5xLHA8hSAn8gdx7XwcyKrGIDdJm9ElvEcf04fvLMChuARUq-I9OBZE_Ig6sBL8qfnA1fkpG0yI_DV_mNEY4A7exdlRoN4xHDl_c5LCnK4BkWjcvGe171Oz0Bw/s1600-h/DSCF1090.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309126603685666962" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoDBgonDD1a2KM4WHDld5xLHA8hSAn8gdx7XwcyKrGIDdJm9ElvEcf04fvLMChuARUq-I9OBZE_Ig6sBL8qfnA1fkpG0yI_DV_mNEY4A7exdlRoN4xHDl_c5LCnK4BkWjcvGe171Oz0Bw/s320/DSCF1090.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>Looking up our street and up the driveway, bright and early Monday morning.</div></div>johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-66465084216051663952009-02-25T16:13:00.000-08:002009-02-25T16:34:46.041-08:00Random Thought #9So the first Chamber Address (or whatever it's called) to both the Republican and Democratic parties was last night.........<br />Osamabama said some good things and some bad things, and that's all I've gotta say about that!!<br /><br />What I want say is about the applause and standing ovations that he got ever 7.4 seconds. He could have said that he saved a bunch of money by switching to "Geico" and he would have gotten a 3 minute standing ovation. Which is RIDICULOUS!!! The only time you should give a standing ovation is when you see a miracle happen or a U.S. soldier walks into the room. Not to be confused, I'm talking about a soldier that has put his life on the line to keep our American flag flying high and is willing to die just so me and you can walk the streets of our country free and proud. <br /><br />but what do I knowjohnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-17910778379756739452009-02-17T14:18:00.000-08:002009-02-17T14:31:13.986-08:00THE MAN !!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpy7vN7K-lV-f2F4Ok5kXOXax9NPaaBsg_qNuos8FRNrS6OP-sh72FLhkLUcpfIqYaqgL8sBtfEXetD9Ip195XHM0Dt_1qXvjFeC-T4dqr_KACuvqVdqpOcHdRTu6xf87IPfJyswtaea0/s1600-h/143659-R1-09-16.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303895946868903698" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 216px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpy7vN7K-lV-f2F4Ok5kXOXax9NPaaBsg_qNuos8FRNrS6OP-sh72FLhkLUcpfIqYaqgL8sBtfEXetD9Ip195XHM0Dt_1qXvjFeC-T4dqr_KACuvqVdqpOcHdRTu6xf87IPfJyswtaea0/s320/143659-R1-09-16.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />"Duke" testing out the water.<br /><br /><br />Yeah <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">that's</span> right I named my dog "Duke"<br />And.........johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-48629439198245772862009-02-17T14:12:00.000-08:002009-02-17T14:17:59.966-08:00DUKEI don't know, I mean when they were ranked 1st they were playing like the best team in the country.

That's not just it though, Clemson blew a 19 point lead!!! The ACC was the Tigers to win, they've already played UNC and Duke. All they had left to play is Wake Forest at Clemson.

South Carolina Gamecocks (football), every year Carolina fans talk about all the recruits they got, and holler SEC title.

The all world beaters that will run the table this year and not lose a game slipped up. No surprise to me because they're not really that good they just have 2 really good players, take one away and they're nothing. I plan on seeing <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">UNC</span> lose 3 maybe 4 more games (Clemson, Duke, Maryland, and maybe another no name). Pitt is the new #1 and Duke moves up to the #2 spot which means absolutely nothing to me. The only ranking that matters is the final one that come out in April. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">UNC</span> drops to 3 in one poll and 4 in another which is understandable. <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/rankings">http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/rankings</a> They shouldn't remain #1 just about everyone has lost one game, Duke has lost one game. Although it wasn't to the team that was picked to finish 11<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">th</span> in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">ACC</span> like <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">UNC</span> AT HOME might i add. I MEAN REALLY<br /><br />Tyler Hans-BUM: <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">College</span> level....I HATE him, he's awesome and he plays for the other team. Possible back to back player of the year and a night in, night out dominant player at that position. Pro level (NBA).....Garbage, trash, worthless. In the NBA he wouldn't play center he would play PF and would have to guard the likes of Tim Duncan, Kevin <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Garnett</span>, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Amare</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Stoudemire</span>, Dirk <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Nowitzki</span>, Kenyon Martin, and several other <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">WAAAAAY</span> better players.<br /><br />Roy Williams : Coaches at Kansas for like 73 years wins nothing but final four t-shirts and hats that I can also get a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">Sagesport</span> around May every year. Then he leaves <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">KU</span>, inherits a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">UNC</span> team that I <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">could've</span> coached to a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">nat'l</span> championship (he deserves no credit for that <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">nat'l</span> champ.)<br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">KU</span> has never won a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">nat'l</span> championship UNTIL, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">ooops</span> Roy Williams leaves <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">KU</span>, thanks coach. Looks like <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">KU</span> has finally figured out what the problem was when they kept going to the final four and no further.<br /><br />I have no worries as long as Roy Williams is at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24">UNC</span>, I fear Davidson more!!!!johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425719930342773977.post-72276439821790813472009-01-02T08:48:00.001-08:002009-01-02T09:06:07.401-08:00College footballYeah so Duke was the only ACC team that wasn't bowl eligible, surprise surprise. SC and Clemson on the other hand were bowl eligible and both lost yesterday so the way I see it they did just as much as Duke....NOTHIN<br /><br />The USC Trojans showed up yesterday making a statement that they should be considered for a half of the national championship which I disagree with. Oklahoma and Florida are the best 2 teams in the country and which ever wins that game deserves the nat'l champ. USC is good but OU and Florida are way better. I think that this years nat'l champ game will be an instant classic, with OU winning in a very tight high scoring game. Thats right OU wins the nat'l champ this year......final score.......Oklahoma 97<br /> Florida 94<br /><br />And lastly, they need to get rid of every bowl game except for the BCS games!!!!<br />There are way to many bowl games for .500 ball teams. So you go 6-6 and limp into a rinky dink, roody-poo, 99 cent and under Dollar General bowl. Just because you make it to a bowl game doesn't mean you are a good football team. <br /><br />"It don't mean a thing if you don't win that ring"johnduke1979http://www.blogger.com/profile/15060491235783452854noreply@blogger.com0
