I won't even be armed!!!
LMAO

I suspect you did bring a spare tire for your vette, even though you didn't expect to need
it? Guns are the same thing. After a bad storm, I carry a chainsaw in my compact car for
the ride to work. Just dealing with potential issues that may come up.

I *thought* you were retired.

The numbers are in at this point Wes.
Very nearly $50 trillion dollars in asset values went poof between 2005/6
and 2008.
$37 trillion in 401K and pension fund money alone.

That's a lot of money and some of it was mine.

A lot of money evaporated with the dot com bust. My 401k, has had a bad 10 years going on
11. The crap started near the end of Clinton, went up and down during Bush, and Obama
isn't doing all that great either.

As that much maligned preacher of Obama's former church stated, "America! Your chickens
are coming home to roost". Some serious financial accounting is going to take place soon
since cooking the books isn't working anymore for the feds and state government.

I knew a trainwreck was coming and I'd be part of it. I just didn't want to right.


Go visit Ed, he will teach you how to go fishing. Sheesh.

LOL
I didn't spend a lifetime learning stuff and getting a real educatrion to
waste it on fish.
Fishing, in my book, is something done from an eatery on the end of a pier
overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

I take it you enjoy doing what you are doing. If so, keep going if you are having fun and
making a living.

When your vocation is your avocation, you are a fortunate man.

I suspect I'll be working longer at my vocation then I expected.
