Hey putzs.....too late to be morning. Well, that apocalypse has come and the south is covered in snow. Compact cars and 2wd trucks litter the sides of the roads. So, came into work for a little O/T. Beginning to think I should have just got the tow strap out and charged $20 a pull.

86 & 51 are flying artworks, F4 gets my vote for meanest looking jet fighter (and they are mean, seen em in action; of course, so are all the others), but that 22 just looks like a movie prop to me. Still really cool to see em all together. If I could go back to my childhood with just what's in the savings account, I'd pick up a few crated P51s; guvment was practically giving them away. Worked with a mechanic in Phoenix that had TWO of em!

Not only uncomfortable (downright painful up here), but dangerous. Wind catches a big jet and gets it moving sideways on ice, just gotta hope it weather vanes into the wind and stops before it does a few million in damage. Or kill anybody... You learn not to touch bare metal with bare fingers, too. When my position got eliminated in '09, I hadda choice; stay here, take a position where I'd hafta to work outside occasionally, or go to a nice inside job in Atlanta. I surprised em with the unexpected third choice - handed in the retirement papers. Seen enuf of Atlanta traffic and summer humadity when my brother and Mom lived there, and outside in Minnysota at my age? No way.

Sound like me last night... Beam and Coke. Winter's gotta be good for something I guess.
