Speaking of eating cheap
When I got out of the AF, I decided that maybe an education was the way to go.
Well, a couple of years into it the first Mrs. GE thought she had found a better deal and left. Thinking my life was over anyway, and somebody ought to come out of the thing happy, I gave here everything and took all the bills. By the time I figured out that that was a stupid thing to do it was too late.
Anyway, money was in really short supply. I cooked hot dogs using an extension cord with the end cut off. You just strip the insulation back a bit, stick a wire in each end, plug it in (keeping your fingers away from it of course), and when it starts to sizzle unplug it. There is dinner! Tasted a bit like ozone from time to time, and would give SOS a run for the money, but it did kill hunger.
Lived just about a year on that and instant grits.

AHH the good ole' days? - I think not!

GE

Letting the sore muscles relax sounds like a good "job" for a curmudgeon. ((HUGS))

Now that you are in the sandbox, do you have to do any running?

Thanks, Mayor, for today's sustenance for body and soul. Did the Mayor's do something special for Mrs Mayor's birthday?

Thank you citizensgratitude. We hope we never need their services but it's sure a comfort to know there are those willing to be there if we should!
