Thanks Clo - As I said, my my image over many years has been just the opposite of what I see there… Funny further, because I've worked with guys that could have been their twins.
The big one, Ted, was pretty much a Neanderthal Swede, good fellow but liked to drink, in fact pretty much drank himself to death, in the later days nicked his foot with the mower, never went to the Doc, gangrene set in, he'd lost his drivers license long before, that foot, leg, killed him…Last time I talked to him, I had to decline giving him a ride to a wedding, he wanted a ride "So I can drink!" So havin' him as the 3rd party, stuffed in the back of our RX7 was not an option… Ted hadbeen divorced, left her and a couple great kids behind..
Other fellow, Ray, was a sharp electronics switching, wireless tech, but had been a bit too overzealous in his Navy days aboard a nuclear sub.. Saved the sub, crew, but radiation zapped him enough to nail him in his late 40s… A shame, but he knew it was coming, made the most of the time he had… Never married..
Well, my pic is up on Facebook, not a big deal since it's a more controlled environment… Other posters have appeared in other venues, the folks I am still in contact with from RB, a bit of sharing family events, but certainly not with the whackos there or the few left here… Ignore works well on RB, others…
