    Asking people sarcastic questions like this one:
    Do you know why adults always ask little kids what do you wanna be when they grow up? They are looking for ideas about possible career choices themselves. HA! HA!

Now, Mr. Whiley always refers to himself in the 3rd person. Bob hates this. Bob loves that sort of thing. Also, another forum member, Blood ON The Tracks, informed me that a character on "Seinfeld" named "Jimmy" used this comedic device first.</div><div> </div><div>Why do I do this? Simple really. I always thought that speaking in the 3rd person is a great comical device to act as though a person is observing life's events from a distance above it all like a near death experience almost as if you are watching someone else live vicariously through you. In a nutshell, I am paying homage to Bob & Jimmy because I have a fondness for brilliant comedians that make you think & are kind of like the protest singers of my generation George Carlin, Bill Maher etc. etc.</div>

    Today in my travels, this old cowpoke was assisted by 3 individuals named Dalton, Colt, & a very pretty woman named Cheyenne...I'm not sure what all the Western symbolism means exactly, but if I come across a guy named Dusty next who offers me a shot of whiskey & a horse does that indicate a "Happy Trails" ride into the sunset? I'm just curious...Thoughts?

      Nice to have you back mom terp. Yeah, the transition from day shifts to nights shifts & back again can throw anybody off their game, mess up their body clock, & make them wonder which end is up sometimes. Hang in there. I have nothing against horses or the people that ride them BTW. SW1 has a goofy personality & I joke around a lot; it's in my nature. That's who I am. :) Have a nice day...

      Thank you for your thoughtful words as well mom terp. I appreciate that. I knew you weren't being cruel my friend. I was just clarifying my statement & eliminating any ambiguity that's all. Yup, personal preferences sometimes take a backseat to paying the bills. I hope that you & your husband get some quality time together just to chill, decompress, & relax once in awhile though. :D
