The “Idiots” Corner by “Billy Bob Smith” “Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and any- one going faster than you is a maniac?” George Carlin Every day, we all have to deal with an idiot, or idiotic things. Last week , I observed three acci- dents where several cars were involved. Don’t idiots realize when you are riding someone’s a-- at 60 miles per hour, if someone rear ends you, you are going to rear end the person in front of you? I was eating lunch at a restaurant yesterday and watched as four over- weight “idiots” ordered dessert after a burger and french fries. Then I overheard them talking about how they wanted to lose weight...DUH. I had a salesperson trying to sell me a new computer last week, and he kept saying, “Let me be honest with you.” So I asked him, “When you say something and doesn’t start with, ‘let me be honest’, does that mean you are lying to me?” He replied, “No, this is just a habit of mine to say this.” What an idiot. Ever been to a movie and had to listen to the idiots behind you talking nonstop? Well I have; and when I asked them to SHUT UP, they just looked at me like I was crazy. I had a sales manager last month tell me she didn’t know why sales were lagging. I asked her what I thought was a simple question: “Do your salespeo- ple know how to sell?” She said, “I think so.” WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE WORLD? Come on folks, I can’t be the only one who has to deal with all this s---. Don’t any of you have any stories, ex- amples, or quips you can offer? Just e- mail them and we will publish them. (NO, we won’t include your name unless you want us to.) Hope you have a great month and your exposure to idiots is limited.

Each year, they st r ive to outdo last year’s gift to me, and when I opened this one, well can you imagine ~ I got new wheels! You can see, we are all ready for travel in 2015! Then the entire family got in the picture! That’s what I’m talk’n about! But alas, it is with disbelief, I must report in this month’s Ronnie’s Real World , TGWA no longer has long-time friend Leroy Goodson at the helm. Yes, I heard it from his very own mouth during the Expo in Vegas. He has final- ly managed to pay off all those college loans some 52 years later, and can now retire from his position as Executive Director of The Texas Ground Water Association . All I can say Leroy, it’s about time you paid them off! In all seriousness, we here at WWDR wish Leroy and his beautiful and loving wife and family all the best - enjoy yourselves! Stop by every once in awhile and say hi - you will be missed for sure! And that truly is... Ronnie’s Real World! see you on the trail... 19 WorldWide Drilling Resource ® FEBRUARY 2015
