- Thread starter Wildcat Droppings
- Start date
69.3°F and cloudy here today. Not much going on here.
- Good Morning, All. 68º in Johns Creek. Cool front.
- Lightning: One of my 2nd cousins was killed (and his plow-mule) as he was finishing a field he was working in. A black cloud was sending lightning bolts and his wife came to tell him to stop and get in the house. He wanted to finish the row and was killed. A good guy.
- Commodity Cheese: Maw Maw and Paw Paw received it. It was very good as I remember. The powdered milk. Not so good. I couldn't drink it.
- CatinIL: I have posted with him for years. Good guy. Welcome him.
- Announcement: We will be Great Grand Parents in December. 1st one. #1 and his significant other. Surprise.
- That is all.
- Carry on with your Hump Day.
- As you were.

That's why they are called "accidents."
How old was he?
Afternoon D.
WC handy Bluesfest starts in Henderson tonight. I will be there tonight, Thursday night, and most of the day Friday. Drive on over and listen to some blues...it's free.
CatinIL and I have one thing in common...Tom Crean was the best coach for IU! In our opinion, they shoulda never let him go!
Accidents are preventable....after they've happened. But by definition, as Don said, that's why they're called accidents. If I knew that crescent wrench was going to fall from the man lift when I walked by....I wouldn't have walked by it at that time.
Don't tell your boss. Not everybody needs to know everything all the time, if he finds out he finds out. He may not find out, but once you tell him.....

He was 61 Chief, very emotional! At times in Muhlenberg Co. he was a deputy and sheriff. The Honor Guard was there and the changing if the Guard was moving!
May God bring peace and comfort to his survivors
61. That used to considered dying of old age. Now it's almost like dying young. Condolences.
I don't see very many Flag Units that CLEAN anymore.
I saw this Engine rumbling through part of Louisville yesterday.
I've been so preoccupied with work that I forgot this weekend is Father's Day. Didn't remember until I randomly walked pssed a card store. I'm lucky enough that my father is doing pretty well at age 88. So, in case anyone else was distracted, here's your first alert to remember your dad.
So true, this is why social security was set at 65. The government figured very few would ever draw it.
Thanks, I have to admit it went right by me. I had no idea it was coming up. My father passed away in 1990 and life has never been the same. Think about him everyday and miss him and talking UK sports with him. He never could pronounce Pitino's name. Called him Pinto.
I saw this unit today. It caught me off guard because I wasn't familiar with the paint scheme. That makes 6 of the Heritage units that NS has running around that I've seen live.
That's same thing I told my wife when she told me about it.
This should bring back good memories for a few on here.
Rooster or anyone else, does CSX do Heritage Units like the NS does? I've never seen one if they do.
Excellent movie. I got burned big time with a straight and a guy drew 2 cards for a flush. The most I ever lost on a hand of poker.
This is a great movie. It was the first one I took my wife to. It has special meaning to me.

Screen came in today and plans have been made to install said screen, along with the carpet, next Wednesday. I'll get started tomorrow cutting the pieces for the trim. Going to need about 220' of 1.5"x .5" trim cut and finished.
@UK82 , are we meeting at 1200?
You bet! Lookin' forward to meeting your Dad.

Here's another Craigslist post. 2 x 100' sections high-pressure PVC hose. Found 'em. May get $10 for both in 30 minutes if the buyer shows. We shall see.
One more little tidbit about this movie. It almost got me and my wife killed. The opening scene shows a Jazz Funeral. It is pretty impressive. The first time I took my wife to New Orleans I decided to take her to St. Louis Cemetery on Basin Street to look around and explore. People are buried above ground up there and the cemetery is surrounded by a wall. You go through the entrance and it is walled in. We went into the cemetery and a black lady saw us, stopped her car and told us to get the _______ out of there. She said look up and pointed to a high rise apartment. She said men looked down at the cemetery and watch people go in then come down and mug them, often killing them. Fortunately it was 9:00 in the morning and most of them were probably still asleep after a night of alcohol and drugs. The lady took us back to our hotel and dropped us off. I thanked her and my wife gave her a hug. I saw a police officer on the street and I asked him about what just had happened. He said you went to St Louis Cemetery. Boy you are lucky you ain't dead.
See what happens when you are a stupid tourist. Nothing good.
Naw'lins can be a dangerous city. Lucky you and your wife left unharmed.
Speaking of New Orleans, Hard Times is a great flick starring Charles Bronson as a street fighter.
Just returned with $10 cash for basically picking up some trash and investing 10 minutes of my time. Life is good.
I found that out. You stay in the French Quarter and you make sure you are not alone. Even then you better have eyes in the back of your head. It is a very dangerous city and always has been. Wasn't it founded by pirates. LOL
Off the top of my head, I don't know. But I know trains & heritage are popular subjects here so post away. I will keep an eye out too.
I visited that cemetery a loooong time ago. Nothing happened.
Good evening/.
Cord, sorry for the loss of your friend. FCC.

Funny thing about that, I can't carry a tune (sing normally) but I could sing the hell out of some cadence. Was one of the favorites of the troops. Did not make sense.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 73°F. Expecting 90°F or so later today.
Another homeless guy invaded my car wash. Sometimes they last a few days, other times longer. Usually, they are worst at this time of year -- summer. SOBs keep their asses indoors at shelters during other seasons, Stay tuned.
.
We'll check back later. Y'all behave.

Good morning D-League. One of those summer mornings where it is hard to get going.
At least it is staying cool. And I plan to take a long lunch and check out the Smithsonian's new Dinosaur Hall. So it should be a good day. Hope everyone is off to a good start.
