Yep, that was him.
Just curious, are you an engineer?

Just curious, are you an engineer?
Yes, for 31 years now. Hired out as a fireman in Dec '71 and promoted in Oct '73.

Well then I have great respect for you. I was a brakeman/conductor with Conrail for 3 years, then escaped South to a job that let me keep a normal sleep schedule. Interesting job, but it sure can take its toll.

Penguins eat fish from the hands of zookeeper Jane Tollini at the San Francisco Zoo in San Francisco in Thursday, Jan. 16, 2003. A few penguins swimming leisurely at the San Francisco Zoo is nothing new. But dozens of them doing laps in unison for hours has zookeepers perplexed. It all started this past November when six newcomer Magellannic penguins were brought in. Since then the penguin pool at the San Francisco Zoo has been a daily frenzy of circle swimming by all of the 52 birds at once. (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez) |

They shouldn't have nicknamed him Trail Blazer.
