Hope your feeling better Brian. I have been quiet again. Trying to work on that. Slacker. I should feel ashamed I know.

Thanks guys. My Dr told me today that it wasn't the flu. I thought it was an awfully strange flu since I didn't cough. Due to that missing symptom he stated it wasn't the flu but some sort of funky GI virus that made me feel terrible yet with some of the characteristics. Slowly getting better but still have all the power of a limp noodle. Get your wife to fix you some hot herbal tea, with plenty of lemon, honey and 2 or 3oz of Scotch. It won't actually cure anything, but it will make you feel better while you lay around!! 👍👍😉🤭🤣😎

Tell them your Chinese girlfriend gave you some kind of flu. Bet they'll tell you to stay home!

We have an answering machine for just that reason... call screening. We got it specifically so that no one would pick up when it was work.

I did that the first year after I got out of the military (all kinds of OT). I traded my life for big checks for a year. At the end of the year I paid most of what extra I earned in taxes with the net result being I lost a year of what I wanted to do and never even got a thank you from our go'vermin representatives. Those who treat and expect our tax money the way a drug addict thinks of cocaine. I decided the way to "earn more" was to spend my $ wiser, the biggy here to get out of debt and not pay someone else interest. And while a nice paycheck keeps ones head above water I never chased it. Instead I would go after untaxed benefits so that I didn't need to spend my earnings. They can't tax wise spending.
Enough of ShadowsDad for one day.

Yea. I made more last year then I usually do. I hit a higher tax bracket. I hope Uncle Trump uses it for good.

Waiting for a hair cut and neck shave. The shop is full today. Lucky for me there are two good barbers and a couple of younger hair cutters working. Should not take too long.

Yeah, but look on the bright side... absolutely full physical work up, 3 squares a day, it'd be like a vacation for 2-3 weeks and no bill. I wonder if they have wifi?

I already let the cat out of the bag to wchnu, but I figured I'd make an official announcement. Found out today, I got the job I applied for. It will be a new experience for me, but I'm excited to have it. Gonna be a good opportunity for growth and development.
