Ahhh that’s much better. Sitting on the porch here at the mountain house with a nice breeze and 86F.

Gotta be back down the hill Sunday to strip everything out of the kitchen. We had contracted to have all the cabinets replaced just before the COVID hit. Took about six weeks to get the new ones made but we have been holding up on the installation.

My thoughts were that the old cabinets were only about twenty years old and in great shape and held dishes just fine.
I lost that battle and $14K.

You as well dan & all you other peeps.

Nasty kink in the neck over the last 24 hours and is continuing. Surprised my neck doesn’t protest more often. Carrying an eleven pound head must be grueling.

What’s up looters?

Thank you, Adam.

There's a lotta rocks in there...

Dudes...

Over under 5.5 months until you rejoin the workforce in some capacity due to boredom.

I’m taking the Under.

I got my MBA in UW.... easiest 2 years of school I had ever attended. Mostly "networking" (drinking) events. Really light math... I was amazed at how difficult really simple mathematical concepts were to a lot of the students.

If he's got any technical background he'll do great.

He's going to be fine with his finance degree from the same school. It's only a one year program (like 39 credits) and will get him ready for law school. I cannot even fully imagine the background his education will give him. He's only 22 and and will come out of law school at 26 or so, ready to work his ass off for 40-50 years in any field in the universe.

Depends on the field.

I was originally in a PhD program when I was in my early 20s. But a PhD for Biochem is significantly different. After 2 years of that my brain was done. I had no interest in anything science related at all, ever again. They offered me a masters if I wrote up my research to date. I told them "sure, I'll get back to you" and never spoke to them again. Probably the dumbest decision in my life, but I was tired... and done.

I'm not a gambling man, Russ... but I would not bet against you if I was.

Currently working with the Clearwater factory in Americus, GA. They have no dealers on the west coast and very few boats out here. They're willing to build it for me with the electronics I want and ship it to me. I might just have to do it.

Hehe.... sucker.

That's why you stick to real science. Full scholarship plus living stipend. Of course you're a lab b$tch and spend 90 hours a week doing experiments. But that's technically working towards your PhD anyway.

Got lucky and had my MBA paid for with living stipends too. I test well and was willing to TA some engineering students interested in application of their projects in the business world.

why do you hate half naked wimmens on da beach..??

I’m sorry.

I said I was sorry and stuff

Can't fuxxing sleep! 2 hours n it was over before noon.

I think technically I’d have been in a Davies. It was Florida Atlantic University

And you're not even 50. This is why I hated night shift. It's absolutely brutal on your body.

My daughter went there in Boca Raton.

TW losing it.

Time to put you in a home.

getting any sleep, Cheno...or is the baby keeping you up?

Back to work. Back on response team. Last night was 12hrs in covidland, at least tonight is just an occasional visit.

Made the mistake of asking if there are words to the Andy Griffith Show theme.

Yep. There is. An awful song, sung worse.

The words didn’t stick in my head but the pure awfulness stuck me like a lawn hart in the head.
