Don't let them get you, Chaikwa - - I appreciate your coffee and I like Skuttlebutt - - it has some class. Don't know what class or whether that class ever graduated, but it just has a nice ring to it.

Terrible day here in Florida - - 74 degrees, blue skies, wonderful - - glorious time to be here - - life is good.

Gonna go get some rays and dip in the pool - - see ya.

Spent the day painting the stairs and upper hall today. Had no idea what color it would turn out, I got a good deal on several gallons of mistake paint.

Turned out a real pretty blue. I got about 2 gallons left. Any takers?

Sorry Ed, I am kind of partial to haze gray (machinery and deck gray might also be considered). It's just too bad that I have an allergic reaction to paint brushes.

Where's the ?

Homemade pumpkin bread and store bought apple butter at my desk. Compliments of my wife, I can't stand either of 'em.

Anytime you can get up put your feet on the ground and get to the coffee pot on your own power is a good day.

Unless the Janitor made the coffee!

Wow, SR is up first again, but at least the maid got the coffee ready. Couldn't find any pumpkin bread, Scott, so I left some of Marian's wonderful banana bread. Yummy.

TBird day - - all day. Glad when that thing is done. Might get in some time to work on the tan and splash in the pool. Have a great one - - looks like a gorgeous day again.

I have returned to the land of full size trees and things that are green.
NM National Guard skewered a bridge with a forklift. Nuked the bridge. Good pics on the Las Cruces Sun website under photo archives. Basic rocket science telles me you are supposed to measure the load height from the ground, not the trailer bed.

I'm still using the one Scotty left here last year - - it is pink. I don't have one of my own - - can't afford it. Maybe when he comes back I can swap him out for another color - - he probably won't remember about his being pink.

OUTTA THE RACKS YOU LOW LIFE SKIMMER PUKES


Why is it when I leave for a week, this place goes to "H" in a hand basket???

Do I smell BLUE paint??? The only color around here is BLACK, not blue or haze gray!!!

Systems working good, other than the typical operator headspace issues. 2000+ hours run time in 40 days. Seeing some long run time problems but Raytheon is on top of it.

Now to do all the paperwork catch up

Been a busy morning 'round here.

Lots of locks to pass around.
If it stays like this we better stock up, looks like it's gonna be a looooooong winter.

Coffee's tastey this AM, back to Oatmeal for breakfast.

Plenty to do, looks like that Work Task levy is about to burst.

Y'all stay safe,
