I'm Back

Sorry about the late posting. I've been on a business trip all day. I left at 6:30 this morning to go to Pittsburgh and pick up some engineers. Then we headed to the other side of the state for a job I'm doing at a paper mill. This place has a 12 foot high iron fence all the way around it. There is a guard shack with bulletproof glass where you check in. They run you through the computer and then print a photo ID pass for you. Then you scan the pass at a turnstile type thing that allows one person through at a time. And then you are met by an escort.

I mentioned to my escort, "You guys must piss a lot of people off. I mean all you do here is make paper."

He said, "Yes, but it's the paper for money."

Ohhhhhhh. And no, they wouldn't give me any samples.

How rude! In my own neighborhood, and not even a call or visit. IS Miller Lite that bad to accept? Husband has been painting his 3 hour tour fishing boat, you at least could've inhaled the fumes we have been ingesting the last week or so...... By the way, like my new fence?

Probably right past your house. But these engineers wait for no one. And you know I can't see a fence at the speed I drive.

Also, I can't believe you aren't painting the boat. You are a professional painter. Many times I've seen you paint the town red.
