Geez, those APC hulks from 1968 are *still* there -- except for the three that used to be fifty meters further upslope. Waitaminnit -- they&apos;re at the bottom of the gully...

        jim b walks to the bar for a Scoresby, and takes a sip, as he plunks down on the sofa.

But seriously friends, I was sorely disappointed with the marketability of my artillery skills after I got out.

I wanted to try out for the job of playing 2nd 105 with the Philharmonic and doing the 1812 Overture. Unfortunately they cancelled that production for the year cause of liabilities from the previous performance. Something about wiping out the first 10 rows of paying customers or something.

So next I went down to the Ding Ding Brothers, Barnfarb and Bailout Circus, and applied for the job as the &quot;Human Cannonball&quot;.  Again I was disappointed, turned out I wasn&apos;t the right caliber man for the job.

Sigh.

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental thing apply
As time goes by ....

jim b puts on his trench coat, and lights up a camel ...... ambles towards the door and says,
&quot;Good night Chesty ... wherever you are.&quot;

jim b exits stage right.

        I need one of them things in my front yard.

I will spend all day on New Year&apos;s Eve cleaning polishing and worrying the hell outta the neighbors about what might happen at midnight.
