Probably because i just came out of my boss' office after i told him that i moved my retirement date up...i'm leaving at the end of this month. Found out that if i'm already retired on April 1st, i get a 2% cost of living raise. People that retire April 1st or later, must wait until next April for a raise (if they have one next year...generally, it's less than 2%). So, i'm in the homestretch. So you WILL be able to make it to Hope! Yep, be careful what you wish for!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minermark Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Morning gang Good news for the R to R guy's http://reelprosoundguys.com/ Phil has joined the Forum as of last night. Now if i could just tweak his memory as to who i am. Phil and i worked a gig in sacramento 15+ years ago, he left to chase his dreams. It appears he found them. 37, feels like 20, too cold for Calif. Coffee done, wanting Donut. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats.....I'll bet you're counting down the hours now. I've always thought about moving someday. The idea of packing up everything and going to a new place sounds like an adventure. Good luck Steve. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck, the finger healed up well, thanks. I do have some shooting pain once a day, I think that's because the fingernail growing part was severed, the nail is fractured but growing out. I can use it, probably about 80% back to where it was. I still can't believe I did that 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a lot of the little "annoyances" fixed on the Volvo.....runs like a scalded dog...holds a good 14lbs of boost when in it...been extremely happy with it so far.
