It does have a camera, and I will be sure to have it charged up. Might need a camera with a WIDE angle lens though. That picture is a riot! Just think of all the little kids who hold onto that sign waiting for the bus...yuck! Pass the germx!! Lol

Folks,

I've been following this gal for awhile now and I believe she's very talented....only 20 or so and based out of Germany.

Nicole Milik - I see fire.

Give her a thumbs up on youtube if you enjoy the song.

[AU24K]

I was prepared to be first with my Presentation yesterday,
but since I sit in the back of the class,
2 others jumped ahead of me.
So, for the third person to present,
I walked to the front of the class,
My freed long hair flowing,
I plugged in my thumb drive,
and when the first slide came up,
everybody was like, "YES!"

I think it went very well and I fielded several questions.
A couple of students expressed interest in accompanying me
on my next prospecting trip,
but I'm wary they may just want me to show them my "Glory Hole."

All right,
All you dirty minds.....
Stop, NOW!


----------------------
Then it was on to the Math exam.

Bad news, Scotty old boy....
It wasn't the final;
It was only test #4.
The Final still awaits....

I'm pretty sure that I passed.

----------------
Now then,
All of this talk about me an' Jeff...

I don't "buy a pig in a poke."

What's he bringing to this?
Can he cook? Clean? Do dishes? Laundry?
He might could take over for my maid,
who has never shown up,
for some reason....

Aw, never mind.
I'm too poor to even think about a relationship,
other than as a Friend.

Y'all be good, now!

My Best,

Scott

Scott,

Better to be rich in character and life experiences than a big fat bank account.

Besides Ray Kroc started MacDonalds when he was 58 or so if memory serves me correctly....never to late to go for the gusto.

What? Scott I thought it was G.I.B.,s ring had J,s eyes all aglow. You sly dog! l.o.l.
Sounds good on school. Eye on the prize bud. I mean eye on the prize...oh you know.

Ya know,
Seeing the St. Louis Arch reminds me of a story.....

Several years ago, a Friend and his wife were moving from Lawrence, Kansas to Frankfort, Kentucky and my assistance was requested because I used to work for Mayflower Moving and Storage.

The move was planned over the 4th of July Holiday and after packing everything, carefully loading and coordination of route, we were on our way.

We reached St. Louis just after dark on the 4th and were caught up in traffic on the bridge crossing the Mississippi river, via I-70,
because of the fireworks the City was putting on.
EVERYBODY stopped to watch.

The next day, arriving in Frankfort, after driving all night, we unloaded and dropped off the rental truck.
My Friend then drove me to the airport and bought me a flight back to KCI.
I called another Friend and he came to the KCI airport and picked me up.

I haven't seen either Friend since I moved to Georgia,
But we still stay in touch....

Best,

Scott

PS.
My Friend later told me that not one item was broken in the move. ​

RC, my Friend,

You always seem to know what songs to play to suit my mood.

Folks, Let's have a big round of "Thanks" for RC!

Now,

For those who remember,
Starting in about 1976, for the next quarter of a century,
This band was always on my play list.

Didn't you hate it when it took so long for their third album?

Unfortunately,
There will be no more....

For your musical entertainment, enjoyment and future study music,
I offer almost 3.5 hours of,
The one,
The only,

BOSTON!

Never got a chance to see them in concert....
I have all 3 albums and they have been played profusely


Best,

Scott

Ah, "Crop Rotation."
Seems that has been practiced for almost 8000 years.
Until recently, people didn't understand the chemistry of soil depletion of nutrients and such.

Luther Burbank could have contributed more to the science, had he truly understood soil chemistry and the finite points on mineralogy....
Luther Burbank - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Other evidence of crop rotation appears....

What?
Never mind?

Oh!

Y'all talking 'bout "corn poles?"

Sorry.
Doan know nothin' 'bout them.
Never heard of such a thing.

Scare Crows?

Absolutely.

Got 25 cents an hour to chase away crows from the fields in Kansas when I was just a kid....

PS.

Lookin' back,
Seem's like it was just a ploy by my Dad to be rid of me for the day for about $1.50-$2.
I don't think he even owned them cornfields.....

(BTW is there any job Scott didn't have?)

Friend,

The benefits of a "pseudo-classical education" and full lifetime of experiences and screw-ups.

Some would call me a "slow learner,"
Well, I want you to, um, know, um, What was the question?

I've always found ways to put money in my pocket, legally, of course....

When I was about 12,
I made a copper rod that you plug into electric 110 VAC and push it into the ground where the soil was rich for the monster night crawlers.
Without going into details of Annelida physiology, I'll say
That worm wranglin' device paid off by selling crawlers all summer by the dozen to the local bait shop.
I made enough money to buy a sinker making set up from Cabello's.
Yes, sold 'em to the bait shop, too.
I'd ride my bike all over town to filling stations that did tire repairs.
I could always find lead wheel weights to melt down for sinkers.....
I'd return home, my pants pockets filled, no, WEIGHTED DOWN!

Success from hard work was what I was taught, by my Parents, Teachers, the Police and others along the way,
usually those in an Authority Position, who were trusted.

I STILL live that Idea.

(I've been told that I have problems with "Authority Figures." Go Figure....)



(How much "Bad Advice" did you get from your "friends?")


It's too bad things have changed.
So much.
So much The WRONG way....

Anyway,

I was the richest kid on the block that summer!
Had me TWO girlfriends.....

But,
That's another story.
For another day.

My Best Wishes,

Scott

OK.
One more of Scotty's youthful money makin' ventures.

I found out that the High School dissected Frogs in their Science classes.
(From my older Sister....)
I'm not yet in High School.

I ask questions.
I get answers.

Seems that the common specie used were the Rana Pipiens.
Northern leopard frog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Owned a handbook of herpetology at the time)
(BEST catfish bait, EVER! But the gars will drive you crazy strippin' 'em to the bone leaving just a hook full of frog bones...)


Why, them frogs is plentiful on the banks of the Wakarusa River in southern Douglas County, Kansas.

"How much?"
"$1 each?"
"HOW MANY DO YOU WANT!!! I can deliver LIVE frogs!"
(Live "stock." Hmmm. Worm wranglin' and frog grabbin'. Does that make me a past "Rancher?")

I later, upon entering High School and taking Biology with the same Teacher that I sold frogs to,
Became His assistant.
I came in early and helped prepare exams, grade exams, feed and care for the class critters, washed labware including autoclaving and just generally helped out. I received Science credits toward graduation.
He was pretty absent minded, though....
I pointed out why the bottle of dextro amphetamine sulfate should be kept in the locked cabinet....

Another story of his absent mindedness,
But,
Another day...




My Best,

Scott

Hopefully,
My reminiscences and ability to narrate a vivid picture may inspire you to post to this question:

Since this is a "Treasure" and metal detector website,
What is your first memory of metal detectors?


Mine is when I was about 6-7 years old in the 60's.

Being from a lower-middle income family, my Mom would always try to find ways to entertain my Sister and I.
I can remember Mom taking my Sister and I to a rural, gravel road just a bit west of the airport in Lawrence, where air traffic was light.
We'd usually stop on the way and get some hamburgers from A&W and pull to the side of the gravel road, eat hamburgers, drink root beer and wait to see if an airplane was going to land or take off tonight.

I know, boring as hell, but what I wouldn't give for just one more time.....

Anyway, I'm pretty young and my Mom, my Sister and I walk to the park one evening.
My sister runs to the swings and I notice a guy over by the fence.
He's swinging a White's.
I have no idea what he's doing,
so,
Curiosity calls Scott.
I follow him around for a couple of minutes and suddenly his machine changes pitch.
He stops, kneels down and soon pops a silver dime from below the surface!

Now Folks, this was when there was ONLY silver dimes, in the mid 60's.

And I'll tell you, ten cents could buy a Coke AND a candy bar!

Yep.

Been hooked since.

How 'bout you?


My Best,

Scott
