The News From Here

Oh Dear- I had made so much progress around “old #5” today but I was wearing down rapidly PLUS darkness was moving in at about the same rate as I was was wearing down. Time to knock off! OK what does THAT mean TONIGHT? Tonight it meant a shower ASAP and trip to the Desert Eagle. My buddy was playing tonight plus I needed a change of . . . Well I needed a change. After a long HOT shower etc. I realized that I had another problem. My car keys! AGAIN. Ok I hadn’t been anywhere for a couple of days. I had them early this morning – So they ARE here. I will not stress out over them – Get dressed, grab another set of keys - “Get her on old sport.” I did! I not only enjoyed 2 slightly cool locally brewed Porters, visited with and enjoyed my buddy’s music but I also found someone who apparently need to talk even more than I did. (chuckle) Fortunately he was very interesting. A non professional musician on 5 instruments, extremely knowledgeable in many areas that I knew just enough about to verify his knowledge, the building of Mt Rushmore to cities most at risk in-case of war, to a clear understanding (I think) of how to judge when to evacuate NOW to or stay and _____ in case of Nuclear war and how to judge how far away the blast occurred. The subjects that came up that I wasn’t qualified to evaluate AT ALL. Interesting to the max. Frankly I hope my first thought is in case of that situation is “Lord- here I am.”
That all, very likely sounds like less than entertaining to you, but it was thought provoking and interesting. Close enough for “old Crusty.” (chuckle)
Strange thing is I tend to get a tad superstitious about things like losing my keys (again) but never know how to react- Right or Wrong or don’t worry about it – Tonight I chose the latter. I’m glad I did. Check back tomorrow to find out if the outcome MAYBE.
