t day...
thanks to fugen, we h ave a bunch of actual dinner plates so armed with that  and your individual serving spoon we shoudl... in the  fresh air of the t tent have about as safe a dinner planned as i can figure.. ALL WE ARE MISSING  ARE THE INDIANS?   WERE'T THEY AT THE FIRST DINNER?  WELL  GARY ( OUR ONLY ACTUAL INDIAN CHIEF--- WHO HAS ONE OF OUR  SERVICE DOGS...   )  YOU CERTAINLY ARE WELCOME TO JOIN IF YOU ARE AROUND.

SPEAKING OF THE FACT THAT  ALL THE REST OF US ARE IMMAGRANTS........SOME NEWS Ran thru the people resoponsible for the upcoming vaccines and both  of the2 BIG ONES    are the product of immaGRANTS WHO ARE EXTREMELY WELL EDUCATED. scientists...   ..... IN CHARGE OF THE PRODUCTION..

 AS I MENTALLY WENT FROM THAT TO HIGHSCHOOL EDUCATION  TO THE MASSIVE  STUDENT LOANS TOPIC...WITH A HELAthy dose of mike rowe...
certainly i am very happy those 2  ...men... are on the vacine problem....and i am glad they studied very hard and somehow managed to pay off their student loans.... however  
 being a very lower level mathmatitan.. let me consider what are now considered  critical personell  namely my trash collector and the guy who stacked my oranges on the suopermarket shelf.....  just looking at the actively employed workforce.. whaT  IS THE PERCENTAGE  OF WHAT WE NOW  CALL CRITICAL PERSONELL  AS RELATED TO HGH SCHOOL OR "Advanced degrees" 
the student loans accumulated by "kids" to achieve the medical degree explain very quickly the percentage of " foreigners"  who are now working here as medical doctors  -- thank heavens-- apparently we do not produce many of our own...  i do not know of a  CHILD OF A DOCTOR WHO IS STUDYING  TO BE IN THE MEDICAL PROOFESSION...   THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG THERE..  SO I AM PLEASED TO WELCOME WHATEVER MEDICALLY EDUCATED PEOP LE WE CAN FIND...

it is no secrete that i have  a distinct haTRED FOR PAPERWORK  AND I WOULD PUT THE PAPERWORK PRODUCERS   WAY OUT ON THE TAIL END OF THE BELL SHAPED CURVE of critical workforce.

take my chimney... please.....  i have  had at least one large chimney fire for the 30 years i have lived here.. it is a  6' x 6' block of fieldstone and i never worried much about it.  i assumed that is how you got the creasote out of a stonee chimney...   i never shoujd have said a word.... but  i the last one produced a fire department report  which being a  law abiding  citizen,.  ( yes?)   i had the thien inspected...  and tehre is a 6inch by 1/2 inch  chunk between 2 ceremac tiles that was dislioged sometime in the poast 30 yeafrs...  

2020 11 24

but now there is  paper report and the chief of the fire Department told me I was not to use the chimney because my insurance would be no good well that sounds serious this little cheek of masonary that is gone is still about 2 feet   of fieldstone -- away from anything burnable .. doesn't matter ---  the piece of paper says I must not use the fireplace until I get that fixed and they don't just replace the little chunk of masonary I now have to put in a stainless steel liner inside this massive collection of fieldstone .. which I called two people too 2 2 chimney fixers and both gave an estimate of about $5000 and then they disappeared having charged me $269 to come and inspect it ..

I tried to get them back to fix it with many phone calls it didn't help so I tried another off the Internet And  they came for an extra $200 on a Saturday and inspected it and told me I needed $10,000 worth of repair .. before I could use my chimney Furthermore they wanted 1/3 down 1/3 when they arrived with the parts and 1/3 at the completion .. that meant    I would have given them $6000 tord finishing a job which they hadn't really even started yet and meant they could just disappear .. so I went to a local fire Department chief and he said he'd never heard of this company even though they're in the next town he said he suggested I try the Better Business Bureau .

so I will back the Internet and picked out one that had a BBB logo they are due to arrive here on Wednesday I don't know which Wednesday but they charge $269 for the inspection ..  looking back not 10 months  alltrack book I found a 269 check  to one of the first chimney fixers but chimney fixer #3 or is it 4   said they were not related to whoever I already paid $269 to ..

point being my fireplace and the use thereof is now controlled by paper pushers probably in Hartford CT   when for 30 years we've been doing very well was giving a fire extinguisher to Janine and putting her up on the roof . only problem there is the fire Department remembers that episode ..

To be continued .

And I know I must not tempt fate of having a real roof fire.


WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CONSTRUCTION TYPE "VAN"  AND ARE WORKING IT INTO OUT TRAINING PROGRAMS.. LIKE TRYING TO CARRY 2 TRAQINERS AND 2 DOGS IN ONE TRIP... A PRACTICE I H AVE FOUND TERRIBLE IN TH PAST  ..  BUT I  WILL TRY... AGAIN...
