...............the potential client calls to say he needs a small tract cut off of an aliquot part of the section fifteen miles from your house and you say, "Sure.?ÿ That's the old Marion Mintz place."?ÿ He says but my parents bought it from the Wrestler's.?ÿ "Yes.?ÿ The Wrestler's bought it at an auction in 2005 to benefit the Greve family and I surveyed the entire property at the time. But, Greve bought it from Marion Mintz.?ÿ I sold him a couple of loads of little square bales of hay back in the 1980's and put it in that barn.?ÿ The same barn where Mr. XXXXXXXXXXX hung himself."
Landed the job.
........you are doing a job for someone and you can remember at least one of their great-great grandparents, if not several.?ÿ In most such cases I know more about their ancestry than they do, by far.
You are in a meeting with an engineer,?ÿ you had been working with his farther who you think of as this young kid. His grand farther iwas running a large farm where you spent a lot of time laying out pivots and pipelines. You dont think of senior as old at all. Where does the time go.
What I dislike is seeing all of these bald heads and graying hair of the "kids" who were my kids classmates.?ÿ That's not right!!
Mrs. Cow began teaching high school in the Fall of 1983.?ÿ Those who were Seniors that first year are turning 55 years old.?ÿ Now she teaches Seventh and Eighth Grade English Language Arts.?ÿ She has had quite a few grandchildren of her former students as her students, not to mention all the children of the former students.?ÿ Four of the seven school board members are former students.
My attention was called this week to two videos with Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead. I've been aware of them since the American Beauty album, but never a deadhead.
Hard to realize these are of the same person. In the first he looks a little older than a college student.?ÿ In the second he is an old old man.
Woah-ho what I want to know
Where does the time go?

You know you're getting old when you're up on an 8' stepladder taking down exterior Christmas lights and wondering how many more seasons you're going to be able to do this safely.
When your spam filter catches a lot of stuff from ??dementia news?
For some reason you get all these unsolicited emails about prostate issues, viagra-type pills and Cleora claims she wants to have sex with you any time you are ready.
You know you're getting old when your children start getting junk mail from AARP.
Wait.....you know Cleora too????? ???¦ ??? ???? ???? ???? ???? ?????ÿ
You KNOW you??re old when SWMBO has has one of our offsprings remove all ladders from the homestead to avoid the financial disaster of placing me in a convalescent home. ?????ÿ
@jim-frame?ÿ ?ÿOr when you have already stopped putting Christmas lights on the house and now use yard and porch decorations.?ÿ?ÿ
My 3' fence climbing ladder went to a 4' ladder, and is now a 6' ladder.
----you see a recent plat that officially "rejects" 3 monuments along some 1/16 lines that were set in 1982, and the 1/16 lines were in dispute since 1960.?ÿ
the recent plat details the history of deeds and surveys, acknowledges that several properties were bought and sold according to the '82 monuments, and you guessed it, pincushions are required because of todays better measuring tools and superior logic, and you recall that you, in fact, were the 22 year old instrument man in 1982, when the landowners hired your company to set these monuments as the final agreed upon boundary line. the new surveyors had never heard of the guy who stamped those monuments, and he is long gone. In fact, no one around today remembers any of this.

@flga-2-2
I avoid ladders.?ÿ Didn't like them when I was a kid.?ÿ Never liked them.?ÿ Will gladly pay someone else to do those little things that must be done from a ladder.
Don??t need no ??Cleora? me and one other member with a dubious past have the ??Blue Nun?. ?????ÿ
