Where goeth POPS?

Postby Newfie » Sun 17 May 2009, 08:29:11

Seems he hasn't posted for a couple of weeks.

Anyone know what he is up to?

Rabies.

He came in here all hydrophobic, foaming at the mouth, overly friendly...

There was nothing to do but what Aaron did. Sorry, son. I know this probably hurts.

Pop's is workin' on his farm, and has little time to post here. He's said what he's often said to us; "Make a plan and WORK IT". The "workin' part" is what he's after now.

Same with myself. I'm off at the garden centers (This is my first day off in 2 weeks straight, and I won't have another day off for the next 2 weeks, due to Memorial day weekend when we're going super-duper-gangbusters.)

We're workin' our plans.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('blukatzen', '.').. As POPS has often said to us: "Make a plan and WORK IT". The "workin' part" is what he's after now.


Good for him. I wish I could say the same (I'm working on a plan to defer the "workin' part" as long as possible. But I do recognize its theoretical importance ... 8) )

The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

Hey you bums!

Thanks for asking about me, I was just taking one of my many PO.com sabbaticals to recharge my pontification batteries.


But, out of the blue it dawned on me and those around me that I was losing weigh really fast and along with a bunch of other bad physical things going on, last Monday the 18th I wound up in the hospital. Turns out I have Type I diabetes and was obstinate enough to wait almost too long but they succeeded in pulling my sweet buns out of the fire.


The doc said I was half-a-day from hell - such things have a tendency to change people's outlook, I'm anxious to see how this will change mine.

I'll let you know.

Hi folks. Only logging in now from work. Summer is coming so unless I get a second job it will be quite a while gone for me. Don't have a farm to work like Pops does, but I have to be real careful with my money this time of year. I won't be back to a confort zone until October. Fortunately the schools need subs.

I'm surprised these boards have gotten any visits at all the last 40 days, during this gardening-intensive time of year. I know I've been wearing myself out, as I'm sure many here have.
