Hey, Missing Link, nice rig, man.

I drove for a while after I got outta college running freight and furniture to NYC, but that was a while ago - I was driving an F model Mack before I quit - the company also had an old Mack Cherrypicker that they still used, too.

E Zazoosh, I'm gettin' old.....the only place you find them now is in a tr#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g museum.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

missing link,
I bet you are one of the guys that used to hall material to me at 4 point channel? I was running one of the batch plants for the first year of the job. I left when Mother was put in service.

yes it was the A-7 job site I hauled the first load powder in when all the VIP's were there but me and the truck were kept out of the action, it was before they put up the big silos in the Gillett spot. the first silo was next to the welding supply store.

My friend was the salter at a salmon factory 2 summers ago. His job was to fill up the pellet bin every time it ran out. He had to sit there and watch the pellets drop 1 to a can until it ran out, then refill for 18 hours a day 6 days a week.

Former Chef, wnet at that for 10 years, decided I had enough. Now an IT geek, who after vacation (leaving Wednesday) starting a new job on April 5 as a Network Administrator for a small medical company.







I had a box of animal crackers the other day. The box said 'do not eat if seal is broken.' I opened the box, the lion was OK, the elephant was OK, sure enough, the darn seal was broken.

Still looking for my niche after 47 years, I have a heart problem so Playboy refused to hire me as one of their photographers ... something about a "stroke"!

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.

Smile What I do?

Till i can retire, I'm a self-employed machinist in the electronics packaging industry / it's a fine line between self-employed and unemployed.
Full time grandfather / free pt day care, "PA" has no rules to follow, my goal is to make sure for the rest of his life he smiles when thinking of me.
Jack of all trades master of none / means my family thinks i can do/fix anything with nothing.
When I travel I always have a backpacking fishing kit with me and know what is running at the local track.
