I was watching a show the other day and people with masters degrees were not getting the jobs they were trained for. I am happy with where I am now.:wink:

Out of college I could have worked for IBM but I stayed put for my now ex- husband's business. According to Forbes, I now work in the worst small city in the United States.slaphead


You made a choice to not abandon someone when they needed you. Regardless of consiquences, I would never feel regret for that choice.

I have few regrets. And I've made a few boners before. But I think we are shooting for comedy here. Ok? I got a keller B card. I can buy explosives. And we've used them. For good things. Tree stump removal is a good thing. Being experienced and organized we can measure out the stumps, weight, root structure, and determine how much power, and type of explosives it will take to blast a stump out of the ground. Some explosives have a higher power and fast burn. Some explosives have a lower power and slower burn. Usually we can get it right and "POP"! The stump is out of the ground. But there was just that one day. A big oak stump. Big oak stump. Really big 9 foot diameter oak stump. Out on the edge of a farmfield. Tough stump. Still green. Hard. Deep roots. Big roots. Hard drilling making room underneath the stump. Couldn't make enough room to pop it with ammonium nitrate. Too unstable for trinitrotolulene, perchlorate, or ammonium iodide. Or even too unstable for nitroglycerine, ptn, or dynamite. We decided to use C4 plastic. Expands fast. Hits hard. A little goes a looooooooong ways. Amazing stuff. Very stable. So we remeasure everything. Figure weights, density, and pound strength to remove stump. We figure trajectory. We measure blast pattern so we don't break any windows out of anyones houses miles away. We thought we had everything covered. We really thought we did. Uh, no. Houston we had a problem. Um, uh, how do I explain it? We used just a tad too much explosives. Yeah, like 6 pounds too much explosives. Um, uh, 6 pounds of C4 has enough power to level a skyscraper. Or lay a forest flat. Or make a hole in the ground the size of an olympic swimming pool. Or make a tree stump orbit earth, create a 3.4 on the richter scale earth tremor on national geologic survey meters, and make two stupified rednecks fly through the air like superman from the enormous blast wave sent out from the explosion. Even with ear plugs we were deaf for days. My buddy looked at me and mouthed "I think we used a little bit too much"! I replied "Ya think"?

What's one of the biggest mistakes (other than getting married or divorced) that you've made? Were you able to recover from it?

thinking that i could get in line for you to pull my boner.
