These are for my Pam...
Your mileage may vary.

I'm so lonely, Dad.

I should probably go to bed, but this is the first time I haven't been in searing pain for awhile...

It's unfortunate. The Covi freaks have killed three of my girlfriends with their clot-shots. I'm so lonely.

I got a couple Two-Step lessons in before 'Texting Granny' dusted me off.

No disrespect, Loddy. I've never met a Pam I didn't love...
My first GF was named Pam. She was A LOT OLDER than me. Hey, I had a driver's license. That makes it OK, right?

Our last assignment. I don't remember where the mission was, I just remember Geo's where we'd leave our cars. I miss you Punk.

Texting Granny irrevocably changed my destiny on 26Nov2013.

Did Granny have her own cell phone in 2013?
Ten years ago I was driving trucks cross country. We didn't have much in the way of cell phones, but some drivers used them. ;)

Yeah, she was texting some earth-shattering news to one of her squirts when she killed me.
My first (Half) day in the hospital exhausted the limits of her insurance.
The MDs told my wife I wasn't going to survive, and if I did, I'd be a braindead invalid.
She filed for divorce the next day. I got clipped for $2 million+.

My shitbag lawyer wanted to go after granny's crap $10k house in the Meadow Ghetto in New Haven after five years.
It would've cost me more to tear it down than what it was worth. I never saw the gal, I told Blackburn, "End this now!" after five years or so.
I feel bad about what that gal went through. Fucking accidents happen.
Janice whatshername is probably dead by now, and it's my fucking shitbag lawyer's fault.
FWIW, I got $20,000 dollars. I give more away than that every year.

Did your ex really clip you for $2 Million+? :-/

Yeah, probably a bit more than that. It happens. It's part of the cost of doing business.
You remember the hassle I went through trying to send you money?
It just is what it is, Jim. I love ya man, you can't even get mail. Doubtful I'll ever be rolling through SW Missouri anytime soon.

There is a way to do it, but I need statement from my primary physician that I am capable of handling my own finances. Then Legal Aid in Joplin will send a lawyer to file on her.
Right now I am waiting for other shoe to drop on retired Conservator's Breach of Fiduciary Duty for opening a CD for $10,000 and short time later a medical bill came in. There was not enough in my account to pay it. She was forced to close CD early and take the penalty.
I am going to get back all the $30 monthly fees she took from me. Then she will be stuck paying court costs on top of it. ;)

My little 48 y/o Godson is getting sued by Goldman-Sachs over a predatory loan. That happens. I guess it's $7k. penalties are about $50k.

I got hit, I went down, I'm pretty sure I took off a part of a portable cement mixer with my head.
The guy who hit me made the mistake of looking to see if I was dead. I wasn't. I blew off his face with a low recoil, frangible .38 round.
I was down, he was down. He was in worse shape. Ugly stuff. Lotta blood.

In the late 70s when I lived on NW side of Chicago, these four girls had their birthdays in November. They rented a mansion out in the suburbs. I drove the truck out there with the band in back.
I was sitting around and one of the girls came running, "Cowboy, there's a fight by the beer bar."
I went over there and people were standing on chairs beating on each other. I started to wade into the crowd. I grabbed one guy by his right arm. He tried to turn on me to the left. I grabbed his left arm. He slipped because the floor was wet and I threw him down with a crash.
Everyone looked at me and I pointed while hollering, "Cool it, right now!"
They said, "It's cool."
The guy I threw down was apologizing to me the rest of the night.
I suppose that is how I got started in security. ROTFLOL

An aerodynamic issue with having the entire engine spin with the prop was that it created enormous gyroscopic forces, making it very difficult to turn in one direction but super easy to turn the other. It was something for pilots to adapt to for WW 1 fighter aircraft.

The gyroscopic forces were only part of the problem. The enormous weight of the rotaries would torque the airframe in the opposite direction. The engines weighed about as much as the rest of the airplane, metallurgy being what it was at the time. Sort of tail wagging the dog, or nose wagging the dog if the expression may be extended to tractor prop aircraft
It might not have been as big a problem as I was just thinking since the rotaries could not be revved up or idled, hence ran at a constant speed. Blipping would create same torque against airframe since engine is slowing down and speeding up, so it must have made landing these beasts quite interesting since blipping was generally used to reduce airspeed.

I got to go up in a PT-17 Stearman as part of the tourist aspect of historical preservation. This was twenty years ago, only non-Jet/Commercial plane I have ever been in. Flown in, I should say, I did manage to get inside the B-17 at GrissomAFB outdoor museum. My Grandfather almost had to push me all the way up the ladder. Well, he did push me, but that was the only way I was going to be able to enter, so he made the right decision. I am glad he did. I wasn't hurt, but I felt a little ashamed at the time for being a weakling.
Grampa had been a B-17 Mechanic in the India/Burma theater, 1943-1945, so even back then I understood how important the B-17 was to him. I was like 11 when the aforementioned narrative unfolded. He really wanted to share that part of his life. I also remember he would tell us stories about British East Africa Troops stationed in India, and there may have been some cannibalism. He never bragged about anything he did, I think he just wanted us grandkids to understand that war is not glamorous.
When he came home from the war, he was an old man, at all of 26 years old. The deprivations had taken a toll on his body, and he was severely diabetic the rest of his life.
He lived to be 65, so I had the fortune of knowing him for the first 20 years of my life. If not for him, I never would have seen the inside of a B-17.

I don't know about Nashville, but in Chicago they did not allow public consumption of alcohol.
When we worked concerts at the smaller venues and walked the line, if we caught them with beer or booze in the line we would take it from them.
One show at The Vic Theater, I was walking the line. I spot a paper sack in the litter basket. I open it up and it had most of a 12-pack. It was my brand. I pick up the bag and start walking away.
This guy in the line hollers, "Hey!" I said, "Hey what? It's my beer." ROTFLOL

I wanted to dance with a cute gal...

When I hung out at Country Music Inn in NW suburban Chicago back in the 80s and 90s, I asked this chick to dance. We were doing a two-step.
She was feeling the ring finger on my right hand. I asked her, "What are you doing?"
She said, "Seeing if you were wearing a ring."
I told her, "You're nuts!" :-/
