I seen the post you asking me if the Union does anything about hiring returning Vets. As of now we are only involved in asking some of the companies in our area to hold a job fair for them. There are others in the group (region 4) that have programs for which I just learned about and I'm going to review them and see we we can possibly do some thing similar or not. Also as for my local there are 14 listed on our membership but only we have currently 5 active members who actually do some of the stuff we do. So it is tough to go out and do things some times.

Morning


Creepiest coincidence of the weekend...its 12:22 am (this morning), we're about 20 mins from our hotel for last night.
Rush's "Working Man" comes on the radio. Its an extremely recognizable song within the first few chords, especially in Canada. I reach to turn the volume up, and just as I look up, we pass Rush Lake, SK. I'm talking within 5 secs of the opening riff I'm looking at the road sign fly past. I just turned to the wife, said that's a creepy coincidence and enjoyed the rest of the short drive. YouTube Rush Working Man and Google Rush Lake SK to see how small it is and the chances were so crazy that would happen at that time!!

Jesse
there is a device in the road that triggers the radio to play the song as you enter the town. Nothing new it has been a twilight zone kind of thing for years. :lol:

When I was younger I was in a parking lot with a Rush Cassette Tape playing "Tom Sawyer" and ran into a young blonde woman who decided to pull right out in front of me..

I was young, dumb, and stupid, and since it was my first wreck.. I looked at the two cars and said there wasn't that much damage to either.. probably $150 would fix her car.. so she said okay.. So I gave her $150 cash and we both went our own way..

Michael,

It's a Northwoods League game. Just a couple of teams made up of DI/DII College Players. I am a huge fan of one of the teams but I am only going to meet Bret Saberhagen.

I finished my paper which means that I finished my first class of the year. I plan to finish another class today, another one by Wednesday, and another one by the end of the weekend. That will only give me 1 class to finish and I will have all of next week to concentrate on it.

Just saw the report about Berkman having ACL and possible retirement. Sheesh, this year has been strange...so many season-ending injuries already for many stars (Mo, V-Mart, The Beard...) and it's only May. :shock:

Good Morning Gents! It is a wet and rainy Monday in Seattle. Glad Safeco has a closing roof and am PUMPED for the game tonight :) Hoping to take some decent iphone pics and I really wish I had a nice camera for the game.

Dan - Should be a great time win or lose :D At least the M's swept the Rockies and we are one game ahead of the Angels which we play this weekend. I'm taking Jen to an Angels game next Sunday as well so we are stoked for that. Hopefully the M's can pull at least one win over the Rangers and then 2-3 with the Angels. I'm eager to see your newly acquired Killebrews.

Richard - Sorry for the delay, but I'll be getting a PM back to you about the Monetero :)
