Buck,
You know I love ya dearly man......and I'm not trying to pi$$ ya off, so I'm really doing the big brother with his arm around your shoulder thing here.

But, that is BS. The military moved some of us on here about every 3 years. I used to whine about it till I talked to a salesman neighbor who moved a lot more that that. Shoot, family drama just blasted me out of DFW after 13 years.

So........that doesn't wash. Did I want to work for NWA? No, I'm a southern boy and I didn't really know who they were.....and Minnesota??But, my choices were just as limited as your's in '95 and I took the first dance offered. Most of us do..........

As an old guy used to tell me at breakfast club when I was whinning about the bankruptcy and then the merger, we have the best job in the world but it is still why they call it work.......cuz it's work.

Beer's on your Uncle Ferd anytime my friend! Cheer up, I was in DTW when it was the OLD terminal.

All days lead from one day, that much you should know....you can't change what's over but only where you go. Enya
