Chuckle. But that dry state is sad too, Benjamin F. said the beer was Gods proof he loved us. I can recall a few of those, but they are now about 40 years in the past. You see, I'm an old fart now, coming up on 77yo, who quit school after the 8th grade to go fix tv's for a living. But that got old by 1960, and by '63 I was working as a TV transmitter/microwave engineer & never looked back. By '77 the plate on the door said Chief Engineer. And I had been the CE at WDTV from '84 till 2002 when I figured at 67, I had been cooked by serious high voltage, or walked around on steel up to about 1000 feet up, or lugged 3 cases totaling about 75 pounds 5 miles up and 5 miles back on North Mountain CO in the middle of the night to replace a klystron in a whiteout enough times. Slowly drifted into a type 2 diabetes setting about 15 years ago, which explains why the nearly no-cal beer. But it was fun while it lasted, and my phone still rings when TSHTF. You can see some of what keeps me out of the bars at <http://gene.homelinux.net:85/gene> if you have the time to kill. Currently working on some seat benches/storage boxes for the neighbors, and a fresh piece of Maple for one of my BP guns. But no pix of either on this web page, which is this machine FWTW.
