My number 24 is wrong. Memory lapse.

There was an E-7 Chief about 40 years old I remember that never lost his head. Good man, one of several who have saved my bacon. Saved his life right back less than 24 hours later. Rough darn couple of nights.

Three and a half weeks old.

My youngest daughter had major back surgery when she was only twelve. I had some warning and found a world class man, one of the very best. Now she is fifteen, doing very well. The Lord is merciful to me. I watched little ones die in the ICU while I took care of her.

O Lord, she is so little, and I ask she be spared pain. Us older ones deserve what we get, mostly, but please spare little Sara.

Notice the fitted body armor under the custom coat. Good stuff. Only the very best is proper here.

[E.G.C.]

BTTT!!!!!!!

I remember the "Black Outs" during WWII, I was a kid. When we visited kin folk in the evenings sometimes we would have to "black out".

I do remember the Air Wardens as well.

Now you're talking. Norm Abrams has built a few cabinets, too, and I just saw him using a straight edge and circular saw in the New Yankee Workshop.

We had a ten-foot Pella door unit to put in the home of the director of NM mental health but the existing tile floor reduced the height under the concrete header (!) necessitating removal of several inches wide by ten feet in length of the in-place tile: straight edge, Target dry diamond, Milwaukee worm, vacuum to follow--done.
