Nightshift here. Looks like I'll have to hold my own without Marc.

Trying to get the folks to look into the shingles shot. Guy at work's wife had it last year too. Any of you Union guys come up for contract, try to get the shot added to your medical if you can.


Scotty, that picture on the door isn't a guy in a kilt....

Wish I were there with you Red. Days are lousy...... All of my friends and family swore I was supposed to be working nights this week as well. Makes me wonder what was up that I screwed up for them.

I may still peak in a time or two yet tonight. Still got an hour left til shift change.

evening all...

I pulled one of my Norway stunts (no, not 120 in an 80)...

On a cold evening, I had a couple glasses of a nice dry red wine and it really cut the chill...

Actually, I couldn’t see any red glow. Just some lightening. For some reason when they blow during the winter the ash causes some really good lightening displays over the mountain.

I live out North of the loop on the Kenai Spur highway five miles from the refinery. We have an excellent view of the Inlet (and the volcano’s) out our living room windows. Some years back when Mt Spurr went off, it was kind of neat because Redoubt and Augustine were both still venting.

the dry air of winter helps build a larger static charge.
