Nice! Between Lonesome Pigeon's meat cutting and your ranching....and me liking to eat it....we'd make a good team!

What sort of steel fab do you do?

Thanks Len. They're supposed to go through my wrist on this one so no lying flat on my back for 12 hours. I should be able to come home on the same day.

Best of luck Hawg. Modern medicine is wonderful; my sister had a heart valve replaced through an artery, went home the next day!

Lets see - I served in HM RCN as an Able Seaman Stoker from 1974 to 78 since then I've been a repo man, banker then found my niche in the wonderful world of sales - I've sold print advertising , photo copiers, printing presses, surgical and diagnostic equipment for the ophthalmic field, electronic components (capacitors, resistors, LED's, switches, breakers etc etc) which sequed to power electronics I sold everything from wall plug in power supplies for phone sets to Telephony Central Office and Cellular DC Power systems , Optoelectronic Tx/Rx Devices, Social Media Monitoring Services and for the last 10 years I have been running a one man band consulting practice primarily advising and implemented sales automation and ERP software.

And I'm 2 years away from official retirement.

Making money ain't that hard for me. I tell the wife to give me $50 for groceries and I come home with $20 worth of groceries. ::)
