Friends of mine
For today, I think!
I had an idea when I sat down, but it has flown. This happens more often than in the past.
Nuts to you... No, Nuts for me! I have loved nuts since I was a kid. Probably from 4 yrs old to 6 yrs old when Granny died. She always reached into her 'bosom' to get her change purse, a small thingee with a twist snap top; she always found me a nickel. I ran to a little shack that sold snacks and buy a little container of salted nuts. That little container always promised a coin inside every pack, 1 to 25 cents. Of course it was always a penny. ;-),
The coins were not new either. I look back at what I have been told that coins have more germs attached than ost things. WHY didn't all us kids get sick and die? Con't get me wrong, I am glad I did not, ;-0.
ANYWAY, now my choice of nut is Honey Roasted. I eat both p-nuts and almonds at night. I guess I eat about a 1/4 cup (as I am now, as I type)
YES, I AM TYPING. I do actually use two hands instead of one finger, but I still look at the keys, more than the screen, at times I look up and see nothing is on the screens, LOL
I never took Typing in school. I had to learn fast, when I was forced to use a 'typewriter' at a USAF job at MARS (Military Affiliated Radio Stations). I did get a lot of strange looks when asked, I said, " I work at MARS!"
I was supposed to type every message I received. To be honest most messages more than one line, I wrote long-hand, then typed it off line
In this life I have did a lot of crazy things. I was trained as an Analog Computer repairman. Then when the world went Digital I was trained as a Digital Repairman. Later I went to IBM School in D.C. And became an IBM repairman.
I have a sweet brilliant grandson, Josh, who programs and repairs software problems. I once told him, "I have fixed many computers and had no idea how I did it!"
He made me feel so good once when he said, "Grandpa, I have done the same thing in Software repairs!"
Okay, that is my entry. I was going to write a brilliant post.
Love to all.

PS: As I finished this I thought to two guys I do so admire, Both have health problems, both from my long time past. Not sure if you will read this, but Buddy and Dallas tonight I wish you well, Memories of you bring a smile...
After a lot of work I think pictures appeared... I am confused
