I have started a journey to Portland, OR.
My flight leaves this morning at 6:30 out of Bradley to Phoenix, AZ. I’ll stay there for an hour or two and then zip up to Portland - arriving at 12:45 West Coast time. This will be the first time I’ve been west of Kansas.
Stay tuned for updates

Mike D: “None! they seize up even without any load.”
P: “that’s really strange.”
Mike D: “What are some of our options? we really need to provide good bearings to our customers.”
P: “I agree. I’ll have an engineer call you.”
Mike D.: “okay. What’s the guy’s name who will be calling me?”
P: “Rob Schnieder.”
Mike D.: “Rob Schnieder’s going to call me?”
P: “yes.”
Mike D.: “THE Rob Schnieder?”
P: “No.”
Mike D.: “oh.”

H.A.A.M.@SR.w/SG: Seriously. You’ve got it goin’ on.
The problem with regularly doing fun things like rock climbing or Kung Fu is that they tend to become the norm. They don’t lose their fun factor, but they do lose some novelty. Granted both climbing and Kung Fu are continuously changing and re-challenge… but the basics are the same.
I think the intention of Fun Club should be to introduce novel fun to the group.
