Boy #1 has an interview in Maryland today, should hear from him after 4 or so on how it went.  Fingers crossed for him.

where in MD?

He was in Frederick

Definitely an up and coming city in MD.  a lot of businesses seem to be locating there.  He should make sure of where he lands for housing as commute times from certain areas there are brutal.

You mean just like the rest of us?  lol
We'll put first things first and see if he gets an offer.

True. I just see the traffic reports from Baltimore every morning and there is never anything good said about the route between Balt and Frederick.

In 1982, American Telephone and Telegraph settled the Justice Department's antitrust lawsuit against it by agreeing to divest itself of the 22 Bell System companies.

I was caught up in this one.  I was put on an inventory project that lasted almost a year.  Going to each AT&T and Southwestern Bell office from St. Louis, through Northern Missouri, then back down around the Lake of the Ozark and back.  Actually it was a nice job with a company car, clip board, expense vouchers, corporate discounts at motels, and no supervisors.

Whoa! A clipboard?

I guess if I could have afforded one of those new IBM Personal Computer 286's for around $3,000, it's may have been easier. But a clip board was allot lighter and only required a pencil compared to those expensive 5 1/4 floppy disk.

I built a 286 with two 5 1/4" floppies and no hard drive back in the fall of 1990. And it wasn't my first PC.

I waited till 486 days, to build my first computer.  Winchester disk drive, 5 1/4 floppy and 3.5 inch not so floppy drive.  my last build was a windows 7 (upgrades to Window 10 64bit) with 16GB memory Raid 1 1TB system drives and a 2 TB data disk, got another 1TB fast USB external dive for moving files tween computers.  I learned my early adopter lesson with a $345 HP 45 Advanced Scientific calculator in 1974 on the way to college.

You gotta be close to picking out a road smoke, Sam. What cha got?

Murcielago to end the work week with.  almost went with a GH #5 Corojo, but decided to take that home and smoke it this weekend sometime with a glass of scotch.  something about the corojo flavor and a good single malt.

Old or new Murcielago?

Who's tried the new?

We've been waiting for you to try one and review it.

Not I, but I have talked with a few folks who say it tastes like a generic Espinosa.  "Reverse engineering" didn't quite hit it.

That's what I was afraid of, they're starting to show up on the bid site so I was curious what they were worth. His stuff typically ages well
