I talked to rookster....he is and has been in the ICU, he's on the oxygen, and is battling a case of covid induced pneumonia. He say if everything goes well he could be home by Saturday......his advice was that if us sick people get a hacking bad cough that can't be controlled, to get checked immediately by a doctor and don't wait for it to get out of hand....his wife has just tested positive also and is fairing much better !! So everyone please take a moment to ask whatever power you believe in to help our buddy and shipmate rookster have the extra strength to power through this and make a strong quick recovery.....God bless rookster please !!

WIF, No it was my bank I checked my account on line and the tel number was legit.
Bill just because the phone number was correct doesn't mean it was them.
From banking with the 5 sisters for nearly 5 decades and you probably the same-how many times have they called you?
I receive a call. pops up on the display (local 613) I answer-it's a recorded message of some sorts.
I hang up and call back, somebody answers, and I tell them that their phone number was hacked, and used by a scammer.
They're always thankful, but some bewildered too.
If we receive any financial call, broker, investments acct. manager unless we know them personally, we call them back.

Scam calls ?
Answer the phone .....FBI fraud division, how may I direct your call .:laughing7:
Had one many years back when operating the scrap company. I answered and wasn't hearing what they were saying because of the noise of the shears, processing equipment.
I got the guys to shut it down so I could hear the caller.
It turned out to be some BS solicitation-I lost it on them-calling up every fowl name I could call them, starting from A
Then I hung up.
The service bell rang and I walked up to the front of the building-phone ringing again-I rushed into the office and answered the call.

"You sure have a Potty Mouth" :laughing7::laughing7::laughing7:
Well I laughed and got the nickname from the local coffee joint when ordering my coffee - "Morning Potty Mouth"

I wore it like a badge of honour :laughing7::laughing7::laughing7:
