    Good on you:thumbsup:

    One of the first lessons I learned in a factory is always remember who you report to -- usually it makes your life easier and occasionally it saves your @$$.

    I hear you on using the electric shopping cart. I wonder are we being stubborn or just stupid?

    This getting old sucks

    If I go racing or overnight somewhere Carol can’t sleep. She needs to hear my snoring I guess.

    I hear you on this I have worked with people that hated to talk to pretty much anyone in person or on the phone because a complete lack of people skills.

    I was always stuck doing that type of thing Though it was said I could tell people most anything in a polite manor and they would thank me.

    I have had problems falling asleep all my life, just can't shut the brain off.

    More recently as an added value something hurting usually wakes me up -- I'd say it was a pain in the @$$ but that doesn't hurt...:laugh:
