    I was sitting here, at the end of a long, bad night after fighting the side effects of my radiation treatment - right on the edge of getting...grumpy.

    Out of the blue I got a call from Chris! We chatted about an hour. Did more for me than any happy pill the doc might push.

    Just like a gift from Heaven - right call, right time and right guy. Thanks Chris. Bless you for sharing your time.

    It is the simple things that can make life good - for everyone.

    Zimmy Wait, I'm not ready!

    I'm not holy or a psychic.

    I've had a rough few months and stumbled across his number twice today searching for contractors numbers.

    I took it as a sign and gave him a holler. It cheered me up too.

    I’ll call it a Finger of God moment, we can’t see everything, but we can hear the hints...

    I'm not an over religious person ,, altho I've been raised in my early years that there is a god ,, and respect his teachings ,, and to live by them,, personally,, I believe it's a small price to pay for world peace .
    My point is ,,, the good lord puts people in other people's lives for a reason , we may never know why we are put where we are put ,, but just take advantage of those positions,, as it is an advantage for all those put in those positions,,, whether we know the reason we were put there or not ,, some things are planned ,, other things are planned coincidences ,,,,
    May both be blessed with good health and friendships,,, congrats to you both,,,

    The airborne guys were generally good passengers on our C130’s. As far as transporting marines goes it take forever to get the lick marks off the windows.

    DJ in San Diego back in the late 60s, story as told to me by an ex - Navy guy in 1973.

    "To all you Navy guys, it's 1800 hours. To all you Air Force types it's 6:00 o'clock. To all you Marines, the big hand is on the '12' and the little hand is on the '6'."
