TT in DTW used to answer the phone all the time. I know he didn't get "paid" for the time that we "elected" him to "volunteer" for. Just don't think the term volunteer is that interchangeable when it suits people. I went too far trying to prove a point there with the taxes thing. Union volunteers also pay dues. I shouldn't let an angry deadzoner AF guy get my goat.

Wonder how T & Timbo's houses are today? Final round of the Arnold Palmer Open was suspended today due to severe thunderstorms. Peak gust of 86 mph recorded @ KMCO! :eek:

So now I'm an angry deadzoner who collected your tax money as pay while on active duty, huh? I have seen the abuse by people on FPL and don't agree with it, sorry.

Timbo is still probably riding them in his racing catamaran! All joking aside, that is some serious wind. Hope nothing got damaged

DALPA vs. anti DALPA. Yawn.

How do you post pics again? I have a good one.

DALPA= The girl who looks good, but doesn't put-out.

DPA= The girl who's not that good looking, and says she puts-out.
