Subj : Re: Retired To : JOE MACKEY From : Daryl Stout Date : Tue Apr 14 2020 13:20:00 Joe, JM> A few of them looked like they needed security watching them. LOL Darn!! My cover has been blown. For that matter, it has with this message...although it won't go out until Friday, as I wait for new nodelists to take effect (I've requested the Continuous Mail flag removed). In the nearly 43 years I've lived in Arkansas, this is the stormiest spring I've ever seen. JM> I was talking to one woman who said she and her group had worked their JM>regular 8 hour shift, then loaded in a van and driven several hours to work JM>the game, and then were going back on site to work their next shift. That JM>happened only once that I am aware I did a 24 hour shift one time at Burger King 40 years ago...that was exhausting in so many ways. JM>> So clearly ushering was the plum job... unless one didn't care that much JM>about the game itself... :) My late father did that at the long gone Orange Bowl stadium in Miami, Florida...as the University Of Miami was his alma mater. I still follow their sports to this day. With him being usher, we got in the games for free. JM> Yep, that was a cake position, provided the weather was nice. Cake??!! Where??!! What flavor??!! Besides, if you eat the entire cake at once, you've only had "one piece". JM> I never accused him of drinking, never made an issue of it or anything. So much for having connections. :P JM> I am planning on another trip this year, but closer to home. For me, the trips are between the bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen. JM>> So there's less call for security... and it isn't the sports season for JM>> any sport, so no need for all that army of workers.... :) And, those wanting sports are having a conniption fit!! JM> Life is more relaxed in the summer. I always quoted the old song: Summer JM>time and the living is easy. That's what singing ventriloquist Darci Lynn Farmer had her rabbit, Petunia, sing, at her audition with America's Got Talent. She got the golden buzzer, and eventually won it all that year...at 12 years of age. Petunia, according to Darci, is a rabbit who thinks she's a diva. JM>scouts going to the BSA Jambore All I could think of was the Hollywood Squares deal about the campfire girls after dark. Daryl === þ OLX 1.53 þ Fer sail. Spel cheker. Wurks Fein.
