If someone said something my Dad disagreed with he'd say bullsbag.

Confused weather isn't restricted to MD. Here in Maine three days ago it got up into the high 50's, yesterday I got an inch of snow and today it was back in the 50's. Tomorrow snow is predicted again. Up here there just hasn't been the long hard winter I've sort of gotten used to.

Here in Maine the city of Bangor set a 30 some year record high for the day at 53 degrees. That clos3e to summer weather up here.

Thanks. I don't feel a day older than I did yesterday. Not sure if that's a good thing or not though. Real Winter hasn't hit my part of Maine as yet but it's just around the corner. By that I mean snowflakes haven't appeared. I am still entertained by the forums daily.

Here in Maine we have to watch out for moose. If you value your life you don't want to tempt fate.

San Diego, company 545 in 1962. We all did our own laundry, outside on cement tables, a scrub brush and some soap. Getting the sweat ring our of our white hats took some elbow grease. Service week I was in the mess hall but had the easy task of keeping the milk machines loaded. I stayed out...

No. quite ways southeast in Washington County.

After 20 in the Navy and another 13 in Fed Gov I retired at the age of 51. Paid back for my Navy time and had it all added for a total of 33 years for Fed. I'm doing very well because of two things, I've been single for 15 years and I moved to Maine 5 years ago. Started collecting a little SS...

Calais, Maine is the closest town to me with stores. About a 25 minute drive to get to Wal-Mart or MacDonalds.

I worked summers beginning at 14 at a shrub nursery, hoeing, pulling weeds, cutting grass as my first taxable job. Only made 30 some dollars a week and Mom took half of that saying I needed to pay rent. It kept me in candy and sodas and I was good with that. Only after 3 years in the Navy did...

Well at 70 nothing bothers me. If someone screws me over they only do it once and they know it. Seeing Great Grandkids, 7, 5 and 1 growing up and their actions provides lots of laughs. My problem of sorts is all the memories of my life no longer being relevant to anyone less myself. In all...

We've got to many idiots in and running this country. I think that pretty much sums it up.

DoWhat, I haven't paid for a haircut in many years. I bought a clipper and used a #2 for a number of years and for the past few went down to a #1. It's easy, convenient and think of all the money saved by doing it myself. That money could be used to buy beer.

As long as you didn't 'check out' you're allowed to check in. Happy to hear from you.

Mine's worn out, wonder if I should go over there and get a new one?
