Not nice... flooding bad.

Still not there...?
Fourteen to go...
Slow down young man.

You'll get there.

Two bulls were standing on a hill looking at the cows below, grazing placidly.

The young bull says to the older, and much wiser bull, "Say, why don't we run down there and have us one of those cows?"

The older and much wiser bull says, "Why don't we walk down there and have them all?"



The moral of the story is that if one moves deliberately and only uses the the energy required to approach a goal, there will be plenty of energy left over to complete the task at hand.

Now back to the studies young man!

I remember those days well doing survey work on muddy construction sites.
Each boot with about 10 lbs of mud clinging to it, we called it "pulling mud"
Pulling mud.

The kind of mud that pulls boots off of a man's feet.

Fortunately (I suppose) I don't work on the ground but somewhere between 50 and 300 feet off the ground. If the mud ever gets that high we're in a lot of trouble.
Are you a lineman?

I could delete your post and that would give me post 35,000.

But I'm not one to abuse my power.

Congratulations kid.

Now get back to your studies, eh?





Go Jays.

Nope, I do air quality testing which means I work on smokestacks.

Some taller than others. At least these days the taller ones usually come with elevators and I don't have to climb them as often, which is a good thing since I'm not as spry as I was 40 yrs ago.

Don't worry, there's always Post 36,000.

And it has a nice symmetry to it as well.
