Not scared Chuck and I go way back. Air Police days, lol. Actually have some stuff about him in the Enlisted Heritage Hall in Alabama.
Featured on the "Wall of Achievers" are former enlisted airmen who achieved fame in civilian careers or attained star ranks in the military services.

cold winter comming
It's late fall and the Indians on a remote reservation in South Dakota
asked their new chief if the coming winter was going to be cold or mild.
Since he was a chief in a modern society, he had never been taught the
old secrets. When he looked at the sky, he couldn't tell what the winter was
going to be like.
Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he told his tribe that the winter
was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village should
collect firewood to be prepared.
But, being a practical leader, after several days, he got an idea. He
went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service and asked, 'Is
the coming winter going to be cold?'
'It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold,' the meteorologist
at the weather service responded.
So the chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more
firewood in order to be prepared.
A week later, he called the National Weather Service again. 'Does it
still look like it is going to be a very cold winter?'
'Yes,' the man at National Weather Service again replied, 'it's going to
be a very cold winter.' </span>
The chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect every
scrap of firewood they could find.
Two weeks later, the chief called the National Weather Service again.
'Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?'
'Absolutely,' the man replied. 'It's looking more and more like it is
going to be one of the coldest winters we've ever seen.'
'How can you be so sure?' the chief asked.
The weatherman replied,'The Indians are collecting a ****load of firewood'

I saw some while I was in Hawaii! You can volunteer to help them here too. The sea turtles lay nests and you are on call until they hatch and just make sure they make it to the ocean.I usually get startled by dolphins or sharks. Had a small shark swim up in my lap while I was surfing once. I was just sitting on my board.

Yeah, we painted a few walls in out place too. Biggest pain was the vaulted ceiling in the living room, would have almost rather paid someone to do it, lol. Can't wait to have my own place again!

Get a pro brush, a steady hand, and draw your line.
