Thanks. Kind of exciting, for a 59 year old to be seeking something new...

I started smoking one night at a bar to impress a co-worker who was smoking. OK, it was a blatant attempt to pick her up. It didn't work. I got sick as a dog the next day. Never again. I didn't smoke. When I went out to clubs I did my best to steer clear of the smokers. Grew up with parents that sm...

OK. Job was posted late Friday afternoon. I got my application in yesterday.

We'll see how long the posting stays up. Most places require it to be up a week.

Still waiting...

Job will be coming open, but not yet posted. The suspense is killing me....

I really, really wanted to go to this; work got in the way. Glad you got to see them.

"Beautiful Savior"

There was a time when I sang (with a small choral group) at just about all the funerals at our church. My favorite was "Now the Day is Over."

I remember that being a pretty long drive... It is. We made it 4 or 5 times a year in football season; got the route down pat. Went up in two days, came back in one. However, because of a possible new job opportunity for me, we took an extended route home that added 5 hours to the trip. If it works...

Interesting trip to say the least. Wedding went well, everyone behaved and everyone had a good time.

This is for our son; they met at Purdue.

We are driving. We are bringing back his college locker (they built a new locker room); he says he doesn't want it, but when he has kids, he'll change his mind. Of course, I had to pay for it.

Actually, grown up kid stuff. We leave for Indiana tomorrow for son's wedding (Saturday near Indianapolis).

They grow up quick.

Earlier this year we sat in the Crawford boxes for the first and last times. Seats are so narrow, you are wedged into them. I missed two home run balls because I couldn't get out of the seat fast enough. One bounced off the wall and was caught by the guy two rows in front of me, the other by a guy ...

I took my bride to the Astros - Rangers game Saturday to watch Justin Verlander pitch. Good seats, a little beyond and up from 1st base. On the aisle, too, so I would have leg room. Except for the fact that the Astros played like crap, it was fun. I like the Rangers, too. Rangers took advantage of m...

Neither. Houston Astros.

Bet he two-hands the landing.

I was hoping for a Tanner update. Hope he has a great sophomore season. Good luck on the dual credit courses, too. Good start on college.

When in Indy, we always go to Giordano's on the north side.

Wow, that was a really crappy way to treat a veteran performer. You're absolutely right: they should have at least given him a head's-up that he should consider auditioning for other corps. I'm glad it has worked out well for him: SCV is a very highly-regarded outfit; one of the "Big Seven&quo...

Again--nice when the kids grow up doing what they are supposed to do.

Dittos. Thanks for the update, BT.
