Crispin's Day is a now defunct holiday which was celebrated by the Roman C. Church up until the second Vatican Counsel. It celebrates a pair of twin brothers that were martyed.

Crispin's Day was celebrated on October 25, which was last Friday of this week. It is entirely notable to me only for a line William Shakespeare wrote-

The King was trying to rile up the men to fight France with a speech. The last line of that speech is one of Shakespeare's most eloquent sentences ever-

... And gentlemen in England now a-bed shall think themselves accursed they were not here and hold their manhood cheap whilst any speaks that fought with us, on this St. Crispin's Day!

I suppose that applies to business, drinking, and women, but in a lot of instances W. Buffett's key to success is false, IMO.

When I was about twenty I was not too aware of reality and I inadvertently turned down a job advancement drawing prints and writing materials lists for wood crates and pallets. I had worked in the shop for a year and a half and the salesmen for the company were once astounded that I correctly interpreted a sketch and sketchy materials list and assembled the correct product. The bar napkin it was sketched out on had a drink set on it. The salesman and the customer were pretty drunk when they drew it. But hey- a box is a box, no matter how big or small, how long or tall, staight or round, so long as the customer likes it.

Same place I was offered second shift supervisor. I turned it down. Not that I would have worked there much longer, but both opportunities could have moved me along economically, I think.

Brush hogging is much easier when one tire is not totally flat...

Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!
We just returned from Ye Ole Renaissance Festival. There were pirates and wenches, kings and queens, and wenches and pirates, and ladies and lords, and pirates and wenches, and fairies, elves and pixies, and wenches and pirates, British and American soldiers, pirates and wenches, witches,warlocks, ghouls,goblins. And did I mention the pirates and wenches?
It was Mr Wd's first time and my second. The food lines were rediculous, so we only had a soft pretzel and woodchuck brew which is an apple cider beer. We bought piratey jewelry and piratey clothes. Good times!

This is the third atocha coin she has lost....mel fisher would love this chic....shes there best customer !! Shes terrified to tell her husband until I look.

Implant coin under skin RC....thinking about that...it might be a pretty cool tatoo....and I have none. Chain and coin tattoo might work for me ?
