My dad somehow accidentally shaved off his mustache this morning. I have never seen him without one...
Hard pass. If I was going to fly for them I would choose Punta Gorda as a domicile.
Lol
If you plan on camping you need a lot more than that and you have limited space to pack stuff. Have to omit the weed and Jack
Just make sure all you geriatric types are current on hepatitis shots and anything else that keeps the STD's away during your years at the horny old folks home!Pneumococcal booster. But, yah, have had the old man shingles shot. Cause a trip to the doctor without needles is not a trip to the doctor at all.
The way it was described to me is he wasn't paying as close attention as he should have been and got too close and then figured it was best to take it off instead of trying to fix it.

Back in my early days at ISU, I lost TWO Apple III motherboards to mice. First one went into the back of the computer through the vents, and peed on the wiring. Fried him AND the computer. I came back into my office to this really HORRIBLE smell. Second time, a mouse dragged a twistie (paper-covered wire, like on a sack of bread) into the housing as part of a nest. Over the weekend, the paper shredded away until finally the exposed wires shorted out the motherboard when I booted it up.
I got smart after that, and attached a wire mesh across the back that was too small for the damned mice to fit through.
Oh - did I mention the cockroaches that were as big as my thumb? We had an indoor loading dock with a direct connection to the steam tunnels.
And the rats that came up from the grain storage in the root cellar?
And the bats that we would find roosting on the curved faucets in the lab sinks?
Old Botany was a really interesting building to work in...
Of course I was kidding you. They are, hands down, the worst airline in the country.

At least you weren't lonely.
PapaLew concurs...matter of fact, he thinks you have too much on there. He's not a helmet person...KC does NOT approve this!!!
Are they predominately Jewish down there? It looks like a Menorah...
My smallpox vaccination never "took" so I am a unique 60-something without the scar thingy. Had several attempts. Either means I am immune
or unprotected

It's a small pox to pay in order to live without that scar.
Interesting. I am tens of thousands of dollars short of qualifying for that though.
