    Well after exactly two years to the day (Sept. 30) that I was laid-off, I found me a job. A rather half-assed one, but a job just the same. Little more than minimum wage but it will help keep the Fatboy in gasoline. Poor Harley (the pooch) will spend his days in the lock-up (crate) until he gets older and more trustworthy. Biketoberfest is out for me BaggerPaul and Charlie46 since I gotta work now.

    Happy for you. Sometimes we gotta take what's out there - maybe it'll somehow lead to something better.

    I'm gonna be a sperm donor. Don't laugh, you gotta have a lot of pull to get a job like this... I have more but I don't think should post it.
    I'm going to be assembling highly technical video electronic equipment used by SWAT and Military teams for spying. Basically a bench tech job.
