My dad had a plan for that. He told me I had 2 choices. Get a job or pay rent. I thought for a second and said if I don’t have a job I can’t pay rent. He responded I guess there is only one choice.

I am going to be in Worcester, MA next week for a work conference, then heading up to Portland to visit some family. If anybody is in the area and wants to meet up for drink or something, provided that schedules align, I'd be happy to meet your acquaintance.

(as a brief aside, Worcester is apparently not pronounced "War-chester". It was an amusing lesson at my expense.)

I think I've decided that I need a milling machine

How do the locals pronounce it?

The UK pronunciation is either Woos-tuhr, or Wus-tuh (i.e. Woos-tuh-shuhr/Wus-tuh-shuhr sauce).

We should meet up! I'll be in town on Monday, need to check into hotel and then set up at the DCU Center sometime in the evening. That latter part shouldn't take long. Otherwise, I'll be free Tuesday and Wednesday evenings after the conference.

I love the spring time. Full breeding colors of the Fowl and wildlife. Just can’t stand the mosquitoes and ticks that come with it, plus the yearly allergy too. But yes, springtime is magical!! Thanks for the quick pic

You would think being retired is easier , it isn’t!!

I would rather be still working , rather than the implications placed upon me.

It’s beyond ridiculous

I would rather be still working ....

Not sure about this. As long as I remember which day of the week it is, I'm fine

Kind of want to bet on the race horse today.

It's Wooosta

For those that don't say it like Wistah, the first part is like how you would say "woo"d or "wou"ld, then add "stah".

There's also a nearby town called Leicester. It's pronounced Lie-stah.

And there's Peabody...pronounced Pee-buh-dee. And don't get me started on bubblers, and, oh yeah, tawnic.
