Sorry to drift off-topic, but how did you get promoted 13 times and retire as a Captain?

Just sold me on a subscription.

Oh heck that’s a tough one to recall. First thing we had was a telephone line on a pole out by the rode. Had a handset on it. Anyone could use it if you felt up to the pole climb. That must have been around late 40’s or early 50’s. We had some big city folks buy up the Boudreaux land next to us. The husband used that phone a whole lot as did their farm hand names Eb. Good times.

Fred? How's Arnold?

I would hit that.

And they did. A friend on mine is a Trooper who made one leg of that run.

It was all funny in a way. The call he made to her, interrupting her at church. The three or four calls that followed that one...but the best was when we were leaving the hotel room to go eat before the game. He asked me if I had his ticket, I said no. That little nervous laugh as if he thought I was kidding.

They were divorced within a year or so. I still can’t believe that she didn’t give the present that contained the ticket on Christmas Eve.

Glad I got away from the politicians.

Waiting on the State Police to ferry a ticket (not mine) that one of my party left under his Christmas Tree in an unopened package in Shreveport.

Does anybody have a link to any news agency that has covered this?

Picked some up last week. Remove from the casing and heat in a skillet or microwave. Place on large hamburger bun and add a slice of cheese ( I chose pepperjack). Add butter to skillet and cook like any other grilled cheese sandwich. Good stuff.

His employer got the message.
