    Steve, I'd also encourage you to use the pm or internal email link to contact Ken as I share Pop's feeling that it's up to Ken to release his direct email, he's very much alive and well. I suspect the change in the photo posting format has put him off, I'm not too happy with it either, but it is what it is. He's a busy guy and just probably doesn't feel the need to try to master a new, less familiar process. Besides, if you got on his daily email loop you'd have to not mind naked women, airplanes, and a touch of politics............................me?...........I'm okay with that because, like Mrs. Johnboy says...............I'm a dirty ol' man.

    Since "the change" (probably not a coincidence that's the term women use for menopause) I've not gotten any true pop-up ads (if that term means the same thing I think of), and notice that since the bitching got cranked up a couple weeks ago the banner ads are gone too, just a couple small links under the first posting on each page now.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Bill, you know they make these nifty computer chairs that recline and turn into a bed, maybe if you got one of those....................

    Yes, you do a great job and we appreciate it.

    Tell heck with that, I just have to figure out a way to get the coffee into my system intravenously ...

    4-5 hours a night for the last 4.5 years, can't sleep any more than that.....Anything less and I'm dragging my behind all day long, like today as we got towed 90 miles home last night (after waiting on the side of RT 80W near Hackettstown, NJ) when the coil pack went in the wifes convertible (time to trade it in) at roughly 9pm....(Got to love AAA plus though)....Anything more and the wife keeps asking me if I'm feeling well.......

    I tried to sprinkle it on my morning toast but it's just not the same. However, the saving grace is that my lovely wife stopped in with two DD "BIG ONES", one hot, and one ice coffee, which within 10 minutes were both gone, I'm sending one of my emplyees over to McD's for one of their extra large sweet teas .....Much better than those 5 hour energy drinks, it should keep me going till at least 6:30pm, at which time I hope to be at least close to home.

    Ken's a nice guy, who is very talented and willing to share what he does, which helps us all in the end. It's sad not to watch his posts here. I emailed him too earlier this week but haven't heard back. Hope all is well.

    Lamin8r - it's like watching two master builders at work using the same materials to build two fantastically unique vehicles that aren't really in competition with each other, but, stand above the rest, in the detail and uniqueness.

    Well, not post directly from Ken here, but indirectly. Sorry.........no wonderments in stainless, no new chassis designs, no mechanical marvels to evoke a "how in the hell did he do that!!!!!!!!!!".

    Just a taste of what he sends out regularly (for which I'm happy to be a recipient)

    THE PROCTOLOGIST & THE PSYCHIATRIST


    Best friends graduated from medical school at the same time and
    decided that, in spite of two different specialties, they would open a
    practice together to share office space and personnel. Dr. Smith was
    the
    psychiatrist and Dr. Jones was the proctologist.


    They put up a sign reading: "Dr.. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and
    Posteriors".


    The town council was livid and insisted they change it.
    So, the docs changed it to read: "Schizoids and Hemorrhoids "


    This was also not acceptable, so they again changed the sign.
    "Catatonics and High Colonics" ..No go.


    Next, they tried "Manic Depressives and Anal Retentive's"..thumbs
    down again.


    Then came "Minds and Behinds" ..still no good.


    Another attempt resulted in "Lost Souls and Butt Holes"
    ..unacceptable yet again.


    So they tried "Analysis and Anal Cysts" ..not a chance.


    "Nuts and Butts" ..no way.


    "Freaks and Cheeks" ..still no good.


    "Loons and Moons" ..forget it..


    Almost at their wit's end, the docs finally came up with:


    "Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones - Odds and Ends" - and Everyone loved it.

    Do you send him some of your cuties in response? If so he would probably flag you as "junk mail."
