    @blind99 - here's hoping everything breaks your way with this.  The end-point is not even close to the far horizon much less any time soon.  Too bad the collective we are declaring victory way too prematurely.  Best of luck.

    @JohnInCarolina - I actually posted a pic in the WAYDRN thread around an hour ago.  Rolling better than I anticipated given the start.  I may pull this off despite the handicap   B)

    Should you find yourself seeking out insights on random subjects, you need to check out this virtual watering hole gathering Friday nights.  See the list above for knowledge expanding opportunities.  You will not be disappointed.  
    Doors open around 9 PM (EDT) and closing time is quite variable.

    If you look at that list of topics, you might be intimidated by the level of intelligence exhibited.

    The conversations did start to lean into the third rail a couple of times but immediately self-corrected.  These sessions have great entertainment value.

    Who turned out the lights last night? Sorry I couldn’t join. Catch you guys next week. 
    If you tried to join late last night it must have been pretty late.  We were all on until after midnight, and even when I logged off I kept the session running.

    I think Zoom closes down the session if there's no activity after like an hour or something.  There have been times I've gotten up on Saturday morning and the session is still up and running.

    I didn't try to get on last night. I was wondering who last one standing was.

    @ Hook_emHornsFan_74 - this is as free-flowing and open as anything you could enjoy.  The only requirement is to be able to find page one of the thread and down-load the link then ask for and get (again no questions) the password.  That is a PM deal for obvious reasons.  
    Every forum member is welcomed but I don't know the upper limit of attendees at one time.  The would be a stress test worth conducting.
    Friday (9PM (EDT) aka 8 PM (CDT) or after is when the doors open.  You will be entertained.  July 17th-be there!

    You got the wrong guy  @caliking, I don't have a ceiling fan or a porch.   I just pop in do a few quick shots and go up to bed when Ms. B texts.  But we did talk about a safe water balloon fight during a pandemic  =)
