When I was working we had some apprentices that though that they knew more than the journeyman.


I remember having the same issue with apprentices In IBEW 613 in Allanta. I had an apprentice with me on a service truck van back in the 80's. He was responsible for keeping the tools and materials put up and stored properly in the truck at the end of each day while I was writing up a service ticket or invoice and getting the customer to sign. By Friday one week I found he had just been throwing everything in a pile each day and it was a mess. I solved the problem by making him ride in the back of the van on our one hour ride back to the shop that Friday to straighten out the mess. He never forgot that and allways kept the van, tools & materials in good order after that.

if so,I'm sorry
but I just love it

The three little pigs-modernized

The animal I really dig
above all others is the pig
pigs are noble,pigs are clever
pigs are courteous,however
now and then ,to break the rule
one meets a pig who is a fool

what for example,would you say
if strolling through the woods one day
right in front of you,you saw
a pig who'd built his house of straw?
A PIG WHO'D BUILT HIS HOUSE OF STRAW?

The wolf who saw it licked his lips
"Little pig,little pig,let me in
'no,no,not by the hair on my chinny chin chin
"Then I'll huff and I'll puff,and Ill blow your house in"

the little pig began to pray
but wolfie blew his house away
he shouted,'bacon,pork and ham,
Oh what a lucky wolf I am'
and though he ate the pig quite fast
he saved the curly tail for last

now wolfie wandered on,a trifle bloated
surprise surprise,for soon he noted
another little house built by a pig
this one erected with twigs

"little pig,little pig let me in'
'no,no,not by the hair on my chinny chin chin'
'then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house in

OL wolfie said"Oh boy,here we go
he then began to huff and blow
the pig inside began to squeal
he cried'oh wolf,youv'e had one meal
why can't we talk and make a deal?
ol wolfie replied"not on your nelly'
and soon the pig was in his belly

'two very nice pigs"cried the wolf
"but still,I'm not satisfied
I know how full my tummy's bulging
but oh how I love such indulging

so creeping quietly as a mouse
ol wolfie approached another house
a house of brick with a pig inside
a little pig trying to hide
"you won't eat me'the pig cried
"Ill blow your house down" ol wolfie replied
'you will need'pig said'a lot of puff,and I don't think youv'e got enough

ol wolfie huffed and puffed and blew and blew
but the brick house stayed as good as new
"If I can't blow it down"Ol wolfie said
I'll blow it up instead
I'll come back in the dead of night,and blow the damned thing up with dynamite"

pig cried"Oh you brute,I might have known"
then picking up the telephone
he dialed as quickly as he could
the number of 'Red Riding Hood'

"Hello",she said"Who is calling,who"?
oh ,hello piggy,how are you?
pig cried"I need your help miss Hood
Oh help me please,do you think you could"?
I'll try of course,Miss Hood replied'what's on your mind"?
"A wolf"piggy replied
I know you have dealt with wolves before
and now I've got one at my door"

"My darling pig "she said"my sweet,
that is something right up my street'
I've just begun to wash my hair
and as soon as it is dry.I'll be there

A short while later through the wood
came striding,brave Miss Riding Hood
ol wolfie stood there,his eyes ablaze
all yellowish,like mayonaize
his teeth were sharp,his gums were raw

once more Miss Hoods eyelid flickers
she draws her pistol from her nickers
once more she hits the vital spot
and kills ol wolfie with a single shot

piggy ,peering through his window,stood
and yelled"Well done Miss Riding Hood'



Ah piggy, you must never trust
young ladies from the upper crust
for now ,Miss Riding Hood,one notes
not only has two wolf skins
but now when she goes from place to place
Miss Hood has a pig skin traveling case

These are all good and on my level.

Willy was a chemist son but Willy is a chemist son no more, because what Willy thought was H2O was actually H2SO4.

Sorry but that's the extent of my poetry memory..

I never fished the west coast so not familiar with limpets or sea snails. Please advise how you harvest them and how you cook them? What areas are they native to? Better luck on your next trip.Thank you

Hello all & good morning from NE Alabama. Its sunny and 30* at 9am. Was 23* last night. Just filled up the bird feeder with sunflowers seed and have decided to stay in today. Think I will play a few games of Mexican dominos with the wife then escort her to the the grocery store. The afternoon probably won't be nearly as exciting so I may go to the basement and work on my rods and tackle.

Admit to being an old fart, but eggnog is only fitting for english chaps and old maids. Might catch me on special evenings with a bottle of Jack turned 90degs. That's how good fish tails are made. Merry Christmas to all with wet or dirty boats.

I almost caught a really big fish one day when I was fishing below an old grist mill dam. I got it almost to the top of a 10 foot bank before the line snapped. It was so big that the splish caused a backwash wave that turned the water wheel backwards and ungrounded a bushel of corn.

I agree and I own a total of one baitcaster but just never got used to it.
Love my spinners.

Sorry to hear about your motor damage. Lone Cabage Reef has been rebuilt by the Gov and there are three new pass through channels with Red & Green channel markers. I have a 19' 6" bottom boat with 150 hp jet drive that does well in that area. I fish the pass through some but usually go on out to the Suwannee reef about three to 4 miles out. Lots or Trout and everything else out there. Too much grass for me at Horseshoe. Thanks for the reply

Thanks for the up date. That's actually good news which means that fishery is not well know yet.

Has anyone fished the Suwannee reef, the east pass tidal creeks lately or Salt creek? Love to know the results.
