highfarfast,

Ha! Now THAT is a potential cartoon! Well done!
(Goes to support that half my stuff is written by people mumbling something off-the-cuff at work! I just draw a crummy picture to go with it!)

Here we go...

Default Throwbacks?

Are we not doing Throwback Thursday any more? Just wondering if I missed an announcement or something. Haven't seen one in a couple of weeks. I completely get it if life is busy, not complaining just curious. Monday and Thursday with Coffee and Pretzels are my main reason for checking in here.

ExAF,
Yes, I quietly took a break putting them out. You hit the nail on the head, it was becoming a fair amount of work on top of the normal cartoon and I just had to hit the pause button.


But here we are....

Reminds me of the old country song I’m Gonna Hire a Wino to Decorate Our Home.

I thought about this… Back in the mid ‘90s, I spent more time on the road than at home.

Traveling salesmen, over the road truck drivers (yes I know they sleep in their cabs), and pilots…

I have an uncle who just retired from long-haul, owner-operator, trucking. We always had plenty to talk about. I also have spoken with freight train crews, same thing.
Now the crews of ocean cargo, now that's a whole different ball game! Those folks are just gone!

No kidding. Six on, six off. That's not days or weeks

Have a good friend who retired from that early, and took a job as a river pilot on the columbia to be home every night. None of his kids really look related, one of them might look a little like him.
