Did you hear the one about the development of the condom? The Muslims invented the original using goat intestine. The Brits refined it by taking the intestine out of the goat before use. :)

I had to leave work early today - having stomach problems - I'm not sure whether or not I'll be on the Canteen this evening.

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Hi, I’m trying to get back with the same company at Boeing Field, Seattle. Their business is so-so right now as with some others. I can get an instruction job easy enough but the hours don’t pay all that much and not too many people are into getting their pilot certificate. I can do this to pick up pin money ... but that would entail moving into Seattle again which isn’t all that bad. A gf asked if I do come back to come live with her. We’ll see ...
