Hey! I don't go back that far! I am checked out on the abacus, slide rule, analog computer, IBM 360/370 digital mainframe computers with key punch cards, PDP-8 and PDP-11 minicomputers, various HP (RPN) pocket calculators, and PCs.

ha ha ha, yes I remember the punch cards and even the punch tape, the dos based mainframes, used to work on one of those in Defence, and of course the dumb terminals running of HP towers, that you had to stick the 51/4 disks in to get the operating systems going. ah those were the days, I think we were much more productive, no internet for distractions, no fb, no twitter, no mobile, no ipods, and back in those days, smoking at the desk, both your own or passive!!! And no grey hair!! sigh

Although there was no Porsche for me either, but I did have a nice Triumph.

I am loving this pole class. At the end, we all get a rose. Makes you feel nice. Women, we are retarded. Arms and abs are killing me. Good work out.

Now time to take my boys to the butterfly garden. I don't like the idea of bugs landing on me but I guess they are butterflies. Ciao, fellas!

Sounds like all of you are busy bees this weekend too. The weather is gorgeous out here... Still hot. Going to Florida next week...

Overcast and drizzly here. Nice change from the last two months of triple digit heat. Perfect weather for kids' soccer games.

Glad you're enjoying your pole classes as much as we are (enjoying your pole classes).

Randall took home best in show and he did not buy the ticket. Someone else actually voted for his car.





The Speedster is a replica but a very nice replica. We have a member with a real one but he did not show up.

Looks like a good turnout glen. Sad I couldn't bring a car this year...


Well... Looks like I'm off to do a bit of clothes shopping. Need to pick up a suit for an upcoming work function.... :/

Stopped by one of my favorite guitar stores here in town today and they are closing the store front and have sick prices. $3,500 Gibson SG for $1,200, Mesa amps............I was afraid to look at the prices. I did however score a really clean white on black Strat for $60. This is going to my daughter for her birthday. She keeps threatening to jack my strat.

Speedster last week in Annapolis

this is as close as we could get, man it was flying, original old dear, no replica, original old patina, looked absolutely loved and lived in, couple of kids squashed in the back and a guy about 50 driving, they were having a hoot of a time, flying through the traffic, we couldn't catch him to get a side on photo, he was weaving around through the traffic having a great time, wish it was mine!!!

I was debating which Strat to give my daughter but after hearing both of them through my amp. she gets today's score. Wow that thing is tame.
