Another new job - Yay!
March 13, 2012
Since my last full time job at FSUA, and being 'released' for no reason, I was out of work for a couple weeks. I then got a job with a washing company called Wascho Int'l, they wash fleet vehicles. I did that for a week, then was offered a job at Camping World. I started that job last night. Worked a late shift as we were making changes to some of the store shelvs and displays. I think I'm gonna like this job - I stay very busy during the entire shift so the time goes by fast.

New job - Yay!
December 4, 2011
Two weeks ago I started a new job - as IT Manager of FreedomSmokeUSA. They sell electronic cigarettes (e-cigs). They seem to be a good company, decent work environment, great benefits (which is rare in today's society). They are growing and looking at opening new lounges (retail stores) here in Tucson soon, and in California early next year. And opeing lounges in other countries as well. The web site it www.freedomsmokeusa.com. Check 'em out if you aren't familiar with e-cigs. It appears to be a sure fire way to quit smoking cigarettes, and get off all the carcinogens that they contain.
Otherwise, nothing much new is happening here. Looks like another Christmas by myself.

Been too long
August 17, 2011
It's getting close to a year since my last post, just noticed. Oh well. So it goes. I've unemployed all this time, so there wasn't anything to write about.
Now I am working, not officially employed, but working none the less. I am working as a general laborer. First I did some big yard job for a neighbor - scrapped out all the 1" gravel in their back yard, and then put in some flagstone and 3/8" gravel. Looks real nice.

Road trip to Kansas City
November 5, 2010
It's been a couple weeks ago now, but I did a road trip to Kansas City, MO. The purpose of the trip was to pick up a transmission I purchases on ebay. If you have read some of my more recent posts you would have read about the MGB that I bought. The car had been restored about 3 years ago, but apparently that restoration did not include the drive train. I have since found a crack in the cylinder head, and have gotten it repaired, and in reinstalling in broke a stud off in the head, which is where it is at this moment, waiting for me to take to a machine shop to have the broken stud removed.

Recent trips to San Diego and Malaysia
October 20, 2010
After a couple very stressful months which included hassles with the insurance company, I've too many days of school and had to drop from the program. I'll either finish on my own at home or finish in the spring semester. I needed to get away from it all. Completely away from everything I am familiar with, so no going back to Washington to visit my sons or brothers or other relatives. No going to any familiar US city. Instead, I essentially threw a dart at the map and went where it landed - Kuala Lumpur Malaysia.
