Had sort of an electrical emergency here and needed an electrician ASAP. After several failed attempts to get one out here, I e mailed Forry as he is an electrician, an hour later he called and said he could come right over.
After about 4 hours of troubelshooting and repair of some problems created by various other electricians and myself (probably mostly me) over the years, all is well.
This was not in my home but in some out-buildings on my property, seems one cicuit was badly overloaded, and with all the electric heat, etc. turned on, the load kept popping the circuit breaker.
Thanks to Forry, I can now sleep on these cold nights without worrying about a potential diasater from loss of power in these buildings.
Forry will not see this note as he left for Vegas this morning, I sure hope he's as lucky there as I was to have him as a fishing buddy and friend.
Another friendship made possible by the message board.
Hey, maybe he'll turn that money into enough for launch and gas fees for the year. That would be nice. Myself, I never did anything but "contribute" money in Vegas.
I offered him my Good Luck 5.00 slot piece to bring along but he was nervous about taking it.
Myself I used to be a steady regular at the Vegas tables, did very well too. But after 911, travel there cut way back, Vegas tightened up the budgets pretty good. To get the same comp I was used to I had to play too much, got to be like a job. Before 911 everything was allot looser as far as comp, etc. I haven't been in 3 r 4 years, actually since I started Salmon fishing, LOL.
Get this, him and his brother went out for the Miss America pagent.

How did he get entered in the Miss America pageant??? And what's he doing for a "talent"? I can't picture him in a bikini... LOL Just kidding. Really, does he know someone that is in it or what?
I definitely didn't gamble enough to be comped anything. LOL Just enough to say I tried.
LOL,LOL,LOL, I think it was just a lark ?? His sister in-law is going with them, his wife is staying back.
