The past few days were uneventful and the only interesting item was that David passed his commercial trucking test and is now anxiously awaiting I-Supply to have an opening. Now maybe AAA will start seriously looking for a replacement on second shift for him. Mike and Sandy drop in Saturday. Mike needs me to take him back to Xenia (from Fairborn--20 min trip one way) to leave his car there, bring him back to Fairborn where he is picking up a 1973 Dodge pu. This goes smoothly and ...
Many of us either have our own websites or are moderators of others. If you are in that position, I guess you know you have hit "the big time" when the SPAM comes a calling. I am one of the moderators of a small gaming site and we get our share of this ubiquitous substance, usually in the form of automated bots that post lots of link spam.

My university has sent out a postcard and it is letting all applicants know that they will be notifying people of their acceptance starting Feb. ...
Pay day--off to a late start but slept deep for a change. Tried a new joke on the credit union cashier (who was a guy). They have a electronic signature pad to sign for the withdrawal and I picked up the pen and said it was out of ink. My joke fell flatter then usual. Totally no response so I jumped to the other line (which was empty) replayed the joke -- got the response hoped for and wished him a fine future in customer craziness. I still think the joke was cute. Ruth did her ...
