A#1 The pundits are saying Broncos quarterback, Payton Manning is getting too old to play. I remember watching his dad, Archie play not only for the New Orleans Saints as a pro but the Ole Miss Rebels in college. If Payton is old I must be a geezer.
B#2 I lived in Colorado Springs for some 6 years and the only time that wasn't fun was most of my short lived marriage.
C#3 I worked for a time in North Carolina and most of it wasn't fun. Not that I hated the work so much as the injuries. I was working for a railroad repair service company. Sometimes we replaced bent , split or otherwise damaged rails and/or ties but mostly this crew did signal installation. Once while driving a support for a guardrail I got my wig split down to the white meat. The 9 pound head flew off the handle of a sledgehammer and landed on my head. Six stitches later I was back on the job. A couple months later I got flash blinded for a day when our lift truck got too close to a high power line. I can't complain about that one as the guy standing not a foot away from me was electrocuted and died a few days later. Long story short, once I got back home to Mississippi I never went back to Carolina. I'll argue with the old song that says "nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina".
