Neil,
It’s the knowing nothing part that is the most difficult and incredibly exhausting/draining and Roosters brains ain’t that big to begin with.

However I’m using what I was taught by my elders!

" In case of an emergency you always evacuate the women and children first. This way the men can come up with a resolution in silence! "

It has worked so far and I’m sticking to it! I have always said old guys freaking rule but right now I don’t have time to stand in line for breakfast at a diner while jingling my pocket change talking about the price of gas in 1979. Jimmy Carter is dead man and God bless him!

I want my little simple world back right now that’s all. I did get my business shop books closed out for the year now I need to decide on…ahhhh it don’t matter cause this post is USELESS anyway… :rofl:

That make sense?
:rooster:

Perfect sense - for a Rooster that is…

I lost my stepfather and fellow train nut last June. I can only observe that the wobbles get less with time.

We’re behind you Rooster. Always thinking of you. Hang in there, ya know that poster with the kitten hanging from a branch.

Used to hate the end of the year books and prepping for taxman, add onto it losing someone so unexpectedly, that just compounds every little frustration. Maybe you need to take a vacation, go do some Trainspotting or get Hollywood to go with to look at some old iron! Prayers to you and the family

It’s in the plans but right now I need to stay at home stay focused and entertain myself on the side.
So the boy and I did this today…I got my foster dog for the weekend just for a little break…

Finally I have something suitable as a useless post for the majority of LargeScale Centralians.

Get Amtrak's USA Rail Pass for Nearly Half Off in January Flash Sale | Frommer's.

The RailPass is a good way to bop around the US on the cheap, but it has a couple of restrictions, coach seats only, and have to start your trips in 120 days of purchase, then you have 30 days to finish your 10 segments, did it a over decade ago and it was quite fun

Here’s a photo of a younger David Russell playing Turkey in the Straw for his friend.
