  1. Sit around the Camp Fire and Pass the Bong Around and Dump a 40 in the Bong. Each person sucks down a 40. Keep going around the Circle until you only have one left sitting. Could be a modified "Duck, Duck, Goose."
  2. We found that it burns better if you only fill the pot 3/4 full. Is anyone looking for a Smudge Pot? Does anyone know the going rate? A friend of mine just paid $150.00 for his.
  3. All of their Cars are Bad Asssssssss!!! This one looks like a Futuristic Baja Bug. For all the Haters, you can And then smell the front engines exhaust as you try to catch them. Can't we just all get along???
  4. Other Tips: 1. Open all Faucets and leave them open, including outside shower. If there is any water left in the lines when they freeze, the ice will follow the pipes. A shut valve will not let the ice follow the pipe and they can burst. 2. Check to make sure the low water drains are open. Leave them open. 3. If you have a water filter like I do, take the water filter canister off. I learned the hard way that they freeze and break also.
  5. You might want to put together a list of each piece of equipment you will be running with the total peak power needed. It might be cheaper to mount solar panels on your trailers. Quiet, Quiet, Quiet. Otherwise your only choice may be 2 generators mounted on your truck tied together. I am looking into the situation for my 40' Toy Hauler.
  6. Hey HappyHour, we were sorry you couldn't make it to the Dinner, maybe next time. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, 2008 11:04 PM, PST Hello All, Daniel had an appointment with his neurosurgeon the Day of the Benefit Dinner. The Neurosurgeon had a hard time believing this was the same child he had treated just a few weeks ago. The purpose of Daniel’s visit was to hopefully be able to trade in his Hard Neck Brace for a Soft Neck Brace. The Neurosurgeon said that Daniel’s Brain was healing very nicely. If fact, he is doing so well that the Doctor said he would not need to be fitted for the Soft Neck Brace at all. Dawn asked the Doctor about Daniel’s Anti-Seizure Medication. He said it was Time for Daniel to be weaned off the medication. As of this Post, Daniel is Anti-Seizure Medication Free. He said she should start noticing some difference with Daniel as the medication is purged from his body. He will hopefully start regaining some of his attention span. The Medication Relaxes his Brain. The Doctor told Dawn that she did not need to Re-Schedule another Visit with his Office. He said Daniel was cleared to do the things a Typical 9 year old boy should be doing. However, the Doctor said Daniel should avoid up and down jarring motions such as jumping on a pogo stick or trampoline for the next 90 days or so. Daniel has been known to climb up onto the roof of his house and leap off onto the trampoline. I think this would be considered “off limit activity” prior to his accident let alone “post accident activity.” Daniel has an appointment in the next few weeks with his Doctor from Health South. This is the Physical Therapy Center in Las Vegas who is overseeing his Recovery Process.. I think I will sign off for now. Stay Tuned for Further Updates on Daniel’s Schooling, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech Therapy. Live Free -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TUESDAY, JANUARY 22, 2008 10:25 PM, PST Hello?....Hello!......is anybody out there? Is anybody there?...... Has the Hollywood Writers Strike Finally Ended? Could we be in store for new episodes, or will we have to resort to reruns and keep rereading the same posts over and over? Daniel had a great time visiting his class. Hmm. I wonder if he remembers. It has been three weeks, so maybe his short term memory has turned into long term memory. Even with All the Talk of Inflation, Recession, & being Faced with Economic and Political Uncertainties, the Benefit Dinner was Insanely Successful. The Cake Auction was Off the Charts. Some Cakes Sold for Over $100.00 while another brought in over $200.00. Almost $10,000.00 was Hand Delivered to Danny & Dawn. In Fear of Leaving anyone out, I will not Thank Anyone by Name. You all Know who you are and should sleep well knowing you did something good. I have a Lot of Good Information and will Spread it out over the Next Few Nights. Stay Strong Keep the Faith
  7. First, Sorry about the Pics, for some reason the Camera was set on Black & White, but what the heck at least you get some. We arrived on Friday. It was Cold at night. My stupid heater would come on, but when it shut off, it would not come back on. I had to manually turn the thermostat all the way down and then up. It would then kick back on! So I just tuned on the Oven. We had a good time with Lots of Food. Steaks, Carne Asada, Breakfast Burritos, etc... Thomas & Hans from V8 Rails showed up on Saturday Morning. They Hooked up Ryan's Car with Cameras. All of Ryan's past V8 Rails were there for the Video. His First Car was Awesome. Sorry no pics. The First Ride was insane. Danny's Crazy Train is a new member of the 2 Wheeler Club. He rode on Two Wheels like Bo Duke! When they got back to camp Hans found out the Camera was off and did not catch any action. I am not sure how much Film they shot on Sunday. Now for the Pics.

  8. Aloha, Sain baina uu, Dáazho, Geia sou, Ma nishma, Buon giorno Pam took the Girls on Thursday to see Daniel and the Family. She was talking to Daniel about going home. Pam said, “Hey Daniel, it looks like you are going home soon Buddy.” Daniel replied, “I am!” She said, “Yes you are!” He replied, “Seriously!” Pam then said, “Seriously.” He said, “How Serious?” She said, “Serious as a Heart Attack!” And then he said, “That Serious?!” She then said, “Yes, that Serious.” Daniel then looked at her and said somberly, “I’m not going home.” Pam told him, “What, do you think you are going to live here forever?” Daniel said, “Yes, I do.” She said, “Nope Buddy, it looks like you are going home on Saturday.” He said, “Whoo, that’s Good!” Daniel and the Family arrived home on Saturday. Daniel was very happy to be home. He asked his mom if he could ride his motorcycle. She let him go outside and the first thing he did was sit on his motorcycle. Then he looked at his Yellow Buggy. Leanna asked him if he remembered giving Uncle Kenny a ride in his buggy on Thanksgiving. He said, “Yeah, and I scared the Death out of him too!” Daniel gave his Uncle Kenny a ride on the Yellow Buggy and asked him before the ride if he wanted a Scary Ride or a Fun Ride. Kenny said, “I don’t know, you decide.” And Daniel said, “Then scary it is.” He then Proceeded to give Uncle Kenny a very fast and nerve racking ride. Because there was a “weight distribution problem,” Kenny weighs 240 lbs, every time Daniel went around a corner the buggy would lift slightly onto two wheels. It looks like Daniel’s Short Term Memory is Slowly starting to Return. He has not been able to Play his WII because he has a hard time focusing on things up close. His eyes are not quite cooperating with Daniel at this time. I will go over to Daniel’s today and get as many pictures as I can. I will make a new folder on the Photobucket Site and let you all know when it is done. I am out of Words on How to Say Thank you so here it goes: Muchas gracias Efcharisto Toda raba Gratias Tand ikh bayarlalaa Malo 'aupito Ngiyabonga ka khulu
  9. Hello All! Due to the Circumstances, we can not get to Dumont at this time. If anyone reads this before new years, can someone pick up a Childs Medium "I Survived Thanksgiving 2007" Shirt? We would like to give the Shirt to Daniel so he can put it in a Hope Chest. I will gladly pay what ever the cost is. I can meet you in Las Vegas. Thank you, Tim Leavitt
  10. Hello All! What a Great Day this is. It looks like Jack Frost has finally arrived in Southern Nevada. I actually had to wear pants and a zip up sweat shirt for the first time. It has been down right nippy. Darned Wind makes me crazy. It downright gave me a nasty ear ache that turned into a major migraine. Breaking News: The Murphy Family would like to extend their deepest thanks possible to their Caring Bridge and DDR Family Members. Because of your Generosity, they have not had to Break Open their Piggy Bank to pay for lodging while staying in Las Vegas. You are all Amazing People. A Special Thanks goes out to the Lewellings (Uncle Rice), Andy Jordan (Serenity Homes), and the Herbst Brothers for going way beyond the Call of Duty. You have renewed our Faith in Mankind. A major "Shout Out" goes to Ms. Cooper and J.G. Johnson Elementary School. They Raised over $1,100.00 in the Penny War! There may be a Special Guest at the J.G. Johnson Benefit Dinner in January. Daniel Murphy is a Medical Miracle. Even though he sustained a Massive Internal Injury and had Extensive Damage to his Entire Brain, his Recovery has Amazed the Doctors & his Therapists. He is Recovering so Rapidly in Fact that the Doctor has already discussed Daniel's Release Date with Danny & Dawn. Can you believe it? It has only been six weeks or so for us, but of course a life time for the Murphy's. Drum Roll Please! Daniel will be coming home on Saturday, 12/29/07. No that is not a Misprint. Daniel will be home Tomorrow! Danny & Dawn will be Extremely busy getting their house back together this weekend. We know that everyone is anxious to see Daniel, but Visiting Hours will not Start Until Next Week. Daniel will be an Out Patient at the Evergreen Facility in Pahrump. Again, all I can say is Thank You All for Everything. Don't Stop Posting Don't Stop Praying Don't Give Up We are counting on you to be here for the Long Haul. So be prepared to be with us to the end of 2008. PS - Steve Do not think about giving up on the Dunes. Once you get the sand in your pants and every other place for that matter, you can't go back. Your Off Road Family won't let you off that easily. If you want out, you will have to be "Jumped Out." And from the Looks of Some of the DDR Members, I don't think you would want that.
  11. Check this out! Sorry for the Rant, but I am OCD and sometimes obsess over these things! I Figured the Diagonal of 7' x 12. 7' is the Height you need to lift the front of your Rail. 12' is the Length of your Garage. If you Lift your Rail 7' in the air, then you technically have 13.89' of Length to work with! Then if you add the Box to your Garage Ramp, you can fit just about any length Rail in a 12' Garage. Just Remember that when you add the Box to your Door, if it is not removable, then you will have to make sure you can open your Door and let it down without the Box hitting the Ground. Now, how to deal with lifting the Front of your Rail? I figure you can get the Electric Bed Lift. Add Ramps for your Front Wheels, Strap them down, and then let the Electric Lifts do the Rest. You then will have area under your Rail to Haul your Supplies to Dumont. You can go to http://www.analyzemath.com/Geometry_calcul..._rectangle.html to check out your different Diagonals depending on how high you want to lift the front of your rail.
  12. If you have an Online Account with Dish Network, you can go Online and Pre-Pay for the Pay Per View Event. Then on Saturday Night, it will automatically come on without a phone line. You can go online with your Account Number and set it up. It's easy. Or call your 800 number and they will walk you through the process. Also, you can go to Radio Shack or most Electronic Stores and get a Device that Hooks Up to your Satellite and Reciever. As you move your Dish Around, it has a meter that tells you when you found the Satellite Signal. Most of the Satellite Stores will actually let you bring your Tri-Pod to their store and show you how to dial in the Dish. Of course, I do not live in Las Vegas, but we have a local satellite company on Frontage Road who helped me out and did not charge me anything.
