Have you ever got stuck in  a parking garage?   Well it happen to me over the weekend.  I went on a trip with my poker buddies.   We were in Savannah Georga and had to park downtown.   We wanted to eat at the Paula Dean’s Lady and Sons Resturant.  We had rented a Big Van Kinda like a church bus and the top of the van measured 6 foot 6 inches. (Which happend to be clearance at the parking garage)  Well we were ok  getting into the garage but getting out was another story.   When coming down the law of physics did not allow us to make it and we got stuck under a beam.   That is when thinks got fun.   We had a line of traffic behind us blowing horns and sweat pouring down……..awkward…….   Well this is when the testosterone kicked in.   All my buddies said let’s let the air out of our tires so the van will lower 2-3 inches…needless to say it worked……  I am glad that my poker buddies are  inovative because I would still be in the garage if it weren’t for them…..Now you know

Well the big day of love is coming up this weekend.  My 3 year old niece calls it Valentimes  Day.  You know there is a lot of thought that goes into the the valentines gift ladies.  We men suffer for days trying to think of the perfect gift.  So if it is not exactly what you wanted Just smile and say thanks honey .  Last year I got my wife a gift and told her it was the thought that counted and she said well you better think again…..lol….well I really didn’t laugh out loud on that one.  What is the initial for a little giggle LG.  Anyway just know we are trying even if it is  flowers and a card from Hallmark.  Someone told me that he even got his mother-in-law a valentines day card and flowers.   That just ain’t right…  I have to draw the line somewhere.  Hope you have a great Valentimes Day. 

If you haven’t heard I have a dead mouse in my house.   My wife Rebecca came home from work one day and said waht is that smell.  Me,  being a guy, hadn’t smelled anything unusual all day. ( all guys are a little smelly anyway and a little dead mouse in the house is not a big deal)   After she mentioned it I went looking for the smell and found it in the wall behind our kitchen cabinets.  There was a hole that I could stick my flashlight down to try and find it but I got nothing.  I went online to find out what to do and most people said that the smell would go away in two or  three weeks…..thats just great…  So if you come over to my house and there are a lot of candles burning you’ll know why .     Some suggestions I’ve received have been helpful like charcoal to absorb the smell and baking powered have helped.  The best was the clothes pin on the nose that one really helps but I forget to take it off sometimes when I leave the house…..I look ridiculous….thanks for reading

When it comes to breaking up with service people most Americans say it is hardest to break up with a doctor.  Lets face it you have many exams and they know some very intimate information about you.  It really is hard to move on and find another doctor.  And how would you break up with them.  Do you say doctor I get the feeling I don’t  know you anymore or its not you its me.  Tom said that we should break up with them like most guys break up with their girlfriends,  just stop calling .  In the survey Americans say its also hard to break up with dentist and hairdressers.  I agree with the hairdresser break up.  I have changed hairdressers before and it always feels like you are cheating on your old hairdresser.  I really don’t know why.  We are the ones that pay for the service. talk to you soon  hawk

Well its been awhile since we talked. My son Asa is teething. I’ve noticed he will chew on anything including my furniture. He is kinda like a dog although I have not trained him to go on the newspaper. We tried putting some toys in the freezer so he could chew on something cold but he hates anything cold in his mouth. We have found that he likes carrots so that is better than catching him chewing on my old tennis shoes. He’s also started pulling himself up and standing. Tom says I am one step away from total chaos and a whirlwind of fun. Anytime he is around my computer he is pulling stuff off my desk and typing on the kkkkkkkkkeeeeeeey bbbooooored…….uh sorry about that, he’s settin’ on my lap. Fatherhood is a blast .

Recently we had a door to door salesman.  He stopped by to show my wife Rebecca some sort of cleaning product.  Rebecca said she was not interested but that did not stop the salesman one bit.  He shoved a pamphlet in her hand about his product  and continued talking.  At this  point Rebecca said we don’t buy from door to door salesmen unless it’s the girl scouts.  She also said that there should be a no solicting sign at the front off our neighborhood.  The salemans got angry at this point and jerked the paper out of my wife’s hand and said I guess you don’t appreciate a hard working man.  She said no I appreciate hard working men I just don’t buy products from door to door salesman.  They guy stomped off saying things under his breath.  You know I have never had that happen at the mall when I didn’t want to by anything in a certain store.  I think the guy should have been a little more professional.  I brought this up on the show and almost everyone agreed.  thanks again for reading an listening to the Hawk and Tom show

Why do parents take  babies trick or treating? They can’t walk. They can’t even say “trick or treat”.   Parents shove them in a costume they don’t understand and take them to people they don’t know and ask for candy.   Only in  America.  I think it is ok to dress your baby up take a few pictures and show the family but when parents take them from house to house trick or treating that is  just giving grown adults candy.   You might as well give them money and tell them to go to the store and buy their own  candy.  I really do love seeing little kids in a halloween costume and even the babies but come on parents don’t ask for candy.  Happy Halloween
