And enjoy your weekend.

In the famous words of the often misunderstood brittney spears - "oops, I did it again"

I think its a 562 husky, 55 husky, hot rod partner from Randy, and a 490 Jred. Maybe.

nothing electric start with a recliner seat (cup holders)?

If I win, (I'm tryin' as fast as I can), I will refuse to accept those lovely items (some of you know I have (2) decent trees on my suburban lot and (8) saws), as before I'll forward all (4) saws to Mitch).

On a serious note,

When's the last time any of us spent time in the hospital employed but uninsured? (I re-read the beginning of this thread)

My guess is it's well over $1,000/day (not ICU), so if a person was unfortunate enough to end up there for a month, $30,000

I'm sure we've all lived/heard of the horror stories of collections, (me, 9yrs of a $150 dispute w/radiologists (I had no x-rays done))

Whatever is donated is greatly appreciated (ever NOT have money for gas/food?) and doesn't get spent lightly.

I doubt many of us are "filthy rich", but IMO wealth comes from the heart, not the bank account (my words)

I don't have much in dollars being retired, but my experiences with giving a hand up to someone who needs it makes me
"wealthier" than many.

OK, I'm done venting, I feel much "richer" now & I AM putting my money were my big mouth is.

luck,greg

I wish I could rep you again......

I wish I could rep you again......

Thanx, Randy, I appreciate that.

If I knew what the heck reps were for & how to pass them out, I'd dump everything I've got on you & the others going way beyond in this matter.

But alas, all I've got is good intensions and a couple of bucks every month.

As fate would have it, I retired (3) yrs ago, a month later, my gravy train, (15 yrs younger wife) got laid off.

She's going to college for a "crazy DR." degree and my mad money is partially financing same.

Two weeks ago, my previous employer gave me an offer of temporary employment that only an ***** would refuse- (I'm not an *****)

So my cad money is GREATLY enhanced.

I'm honored to help out.

luck,greg

at the GTG....no

in a box...most likely

video...dunno, never seen one yet

10 bucks a pop, yes.

I would imagine

If any cliche quote was appropriate:

What happens @ GTG stays @ GTG - no unauthorized cameras, turn off all cellphones, etc.

You are WAY low on that estimate, 4 days for a hip replacement in the hospital was north of $70K, and that's not counting the sawbones salary.

This post is worth a big REP.

What Chris said...for the most part.

The drawing may be computer generated. Woodchuck'r is in charge of that end of it, since he's done it before and all.

I'm just here to rally the troops.

This post is worth a big REP.

Jim, I gave you some for saying so brother. :msp_wink:

I don't want to vent, I don't want vent, I don't want to vent.

IIRC, last time I bought a CASE of beer, it was $5 or $6, easily consumed on any given saturday, (work days/nites were usually a 12pack or less) - That had nothing to do with stopping after work.

I imagine most of us can relate.

If a tornado went thru our town, 80% of us would gladly spend at least a day helping strangers get back on track.

Let's see,

Gas - $20 gone
Food - $20 gone
no time for spending $$ on stuff 'cuz we're bored +$50?

so if we all kick in the $10 we're ahead - no headache, no pissed off dependants, our joints won't need WD40, you'll be to work on time the next day feelin' good about yourself and won't be avoiding reading this thread.

I think I'm going to bust out laughing, now

:hmm3grin2orange:For me, Back in the day really means something, payphones with rotary dial, pagers with no display, party line phones, I still have a circular slide rule - not like when my daughter says "back in the day" meaning the '70's, LOL


oops,bump

Computer generated drawing.....???


No, I'm going all out on this one. I'll be bringing a garbage bag filled with cards of AS names on them to the Wiggz Bash. Each 'ticket' gets 1 name on it. Want your name in there more than once....?? Buy anotha ticket!


Should be fun! Dunno who will draw the names though - we'll worry about those details later. Could maybe have Jer's kids pull the names or something......
