Barb from NC

Barb sent you a smile

Hi Barb, Thank you for the smile. You realize you're seven hours away, right? Normally I'd write a nice polite thank you, compliment you and try to be gracious. Because it's always an honor when a lady reaches out. But, I like your smile. 

You have a kind and happy face. So I find myself asking, What's her plan? Surely you're not randomly smiling at cute guys whose profiles catch your eye? With much anticipation, Tim

 

Nice to meet you here can you give me you number so we can get to know more about each other as well and see where the future hold us to

See, the thing is, there is such a thing as cat fishing. Apparently Harvesting phone numbers for nefarious purposes. That combined with the fact that your grammar indicates English as a second language, leads me to believe you're not Barb from North Carolina. More like Abdul from Nigeria. So, there's that. I really would rather talk on the phone. I learn a lot from voices. I spent 20 yrs in a sound booth. 

 So, I would love to hear your voice. But, you don't want to talk to me, do you? Because then I could detect from your inflection whether you were in fact from NC or NJ or say, Syria. So, perhaps if you really are Barb from NC, you will in fact decide it's worth getting to know me a little on this miserable platform, before we move to the phone. Otherwise, I think we're pretty much done.

 

Give me you number to call you

 

I am not here to catfish you . Can you give me your number to text you

Perhaps if you give me your number and I look it up and it is not a VOIP number and it is registered to a person named Barb in NC, then I'll call you.

 So, I'm guessing Barb wasn't really in NC... And probably has no idea how big this country actually is...

Dad

I’ve been thinking about my dad, today. Dad and me with our 1978 land yachts in 1984, 8 months before he died.    I had bought mine used in Oklahoma City.    And when he visited me there, he loved it so much, he traded in his brand spanking new ‘84 Chrysler even up for his 6 yr old burgundy Toronado.    He hated that Chrysler, but it was the biggest one he could find that year and was still too small for his long legs.    Also, according to his definition, it was not a full size car.    Apparently it needed to be 18’ long and weigh in excess of 4,500 lbs in order to be considered full sized…  It had to be a 1978 Toro, because 1978 was the last year they were “full sized.” My favorite story about my dad was that he used to call my great great grandfather,    the stupidest man who ever lived. Because he came to this country from Germany as a master cabinet maker.    He arrived by boat in Chicago during its boom yea...

Getting Old... Not for Pussies.

 When I was in my teens and 20s, people used to say I looked like Robert Redford.

 When I was in my 30s and 40s after growing the beard, people used to say, I look like Kenny Rogers.

     Recently I was told, I look like Randy Quaid.             I’m not sure I like the progression…

  Job Seeker's Guide to Employment Euphemisms As a contract worker, I've spent a large part of my life, looking for a job... As a result, I've come up with a list of what employers really mean, when they say trite things to you... - A high level of energy and enthusiasm, and the ability to work well in a team environment.     Be willing to work 14 hour days spinning your wheels while management searches desperately for a clue - Fast paced and challenging environment     Impossible Deadlines and management has an attitude - Challenging and demanding position     Be willing to work until the job is done - Well Defined Corporate Culture     Small Company: Everybody is already close friends and you'll never fit in.     Large Company: Welcome to Stepford.  (For the truly obtuse: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0327162/combined ) - have an exceptional ability to communicate with end users and team members  ...
