RGR Martin!

BTW, that would be diesel locomotive technician - right?

P.S.
No jobs in civil aviation maintenance (British Airways and such)? I would have thought that such jobs are quite well paid...


Yes, there are several depots within a couple of hours of where I live currently, hopefully the work will still be there in a couple of years.

As far as civil aviation goes, there are jobs out there. But I won't get the same level of responsibility/initiative as I have now. It's a backup plan, but not much more than that currently.


Best wishes and fingers crossed Martin!

Off to the Lone Star state for the week of Spring Break. 9F here versus 75F there. Hmmm...hard choice to make...

Gonna have to find a new place to host pictures for posting, etc.

Edit: Apparently, I can still login and keep the currently hosted pictures there, but I need a premium account to upload anything new.

Congratulations to your young man. Mine is going to get his Life in the next three months if I don't kill him first. Hopefully he will get to Eagle before the smell of gasoline and perfume distract him .

And, the camper purchase sounds timely!

Yep, along the lines of closing the gate after the barn has burned down, wreckage bulldozed away, and the framework for a new one put up

I am just in my long sleeve short at work right now with open window...

Yesterday we had officially the hottest day in March ever recorded in documented meteorological history here (150+ years) with 25 degrees Centigrade...


And I saw that there are 20+ cm of snow in Washington DC in USA... my cousin is in Richmond near-by...

Status: offline 		Right in the middle of a complex setup in a switch, my new laptop died.  No warning, no indicator, no flash...just poof.  I was so mad I could chew neutronium   Thing is only 24 hours old!  In the middle of my tirade an office worker comes along & points out my power brick's 2 connections ( and why on earth do I need a plug on those?) was disconnected.  Battery died   My old XP laptop would have a little battery warning, and then would go into hibernate. This new 8.1 it just goes home.  So here I sit letting it charge, & wishing for The Good Old Days.  I'm torn between being humilated that I lost my cool over something so obvious I missed it, or wishing Microsoft would come down with a flea infestation for developing such a POS.

<best Captain Binghampton voice>  I could just scream

Yep, even a little glaze of ice and freezing rain here overnight. Just enough to make the bridges slippery and to cancel school for the day. We're about 275 km south of Richmond.

Can some modest exercise help?

BTW, have you tried TENS (i.e. electro stimulation) possibly?
