A list of my friends.
1. Electrical Engineer me. At the start I could send out a resume and expect
to be hired.
Hung on at the end by taking contracts doing dirty work in coal fired
power plants.
Coal fire is down and I am hunkering.
2. Nurse RN, her husband abandoned her. Got rheumatoid arthritis and is now
on the system. She is waiting for a rich man to help her and her son out. She
will sue for money. Don't hit her on the road.
3. Nurse LPN, has fibra malaga and is now on the system. Prays a lot and
turned born again. Hopes for an answer there and believes it. Nice looking if
you can stand full time preaching. It appears that no one can.
4. Woman with schizophrenia, lives with elderly parents and is now on the
system. Worried that her parents will die and leave her.
5. Telephone switching engineer. AS in engineering at 58 was thrown out. He
is thinking of moving to Ecuador where has SSN will do more. Claims his X
cleaned him out.
6. Aircraft mechanic with large airline. Wiffed out at 55 in the recession
and now they don't want him back. He is to old. He is fixing up a piper cub
for a friend.
7. Woman artist, nice looking 55. No one has money for art any more. She has
no electrical power and has a hole in the kidney of her hot air coal furnace.
I am worried that she will die of CO poisoning. Lye heap is coming, someday
and the govt may provide a new furnace. I have sent her money and helped her.
I will patch the furnace. She placed angles at the word trade center and at
flight 95 when business was up. They will not give her food stamps because she
was self employed. I brought her a case of chili. Its $1 a can at Walmart.
8. Woman, really nice looking hot 53 year old. Got the boot after 23 years at
from clerical position at an electric utility and now works at Saint Vincent
Depaul. She tells me that aluminium is up and you can get $30 for a trunk full
of crushed cans. I give her credit she will pick up cans and take them to the
dump. She is republican and will do it, she grows her own food and is getting
ready. Ed may want to learn from her. A Beautiful looking woman by any
means. I enjoy her company and she will listen. I wonder how long she can
hold out.
9. Meter reader doing well. Informed that smart meters are coming.
10. Coal miner 60. UMWA mine closed down when he was 56. He can thank his
lucky starts that his wife has a job in health care.
11. Elementary Ed teacher, young. Never got a job after graduation. Worked
in Walmart handing out samples. Recently got a church related preschool
teaching job. Does not make enough money for beans.
12. Public sector employee. Retired early at 55 and is riding high on the hog.
Are these people going to pay off the national dept? Maybe I just need new
friends and this
is not real.
