I started with Cougar wintergreen when I stopped smoking in 1992. Then did Grizzly wintergreen for 10-15 years, then changed to WB extra long cut (Real Good Stuff!) & Copenhagen (Also Real Good!). I quit back in February because of stomach & esophagus ulcers, but lately have been snitching some. Need to either stop for good or start back, Damn it man.

Nice crop you have there!

I don't have a "real job" any longer for health reasons (ankle, hips, lower back) - but I used to be an Army officer.

Probably was tough being an officer in WW1.

Best thing i ever did was kick my tobacco habit. Used to chew grizzly straight like a madman, but its just not worth the consequences.

I have a friend that also works down at Robins AFB as a civil servant. He has moved mostly to the C130s now. He's a neighbor and personal friend. He recently helped out with a project we did on a plane in Brazil.

My uncle is career Coast Guard and was a flight engineer on C130s for years, he is retired now but still teaches.

My son is in his last year at the US Coast Guard Academy and he would really really like to get a flight school spot. He's stationed in Traverse City, MI for the next several weeks at an air station and has been getting some helicopter experience. I'm heading up to MI when he goes on leave to try to get him his private pilot license as that should increase his chances of a slot.

The trick is being able to break the suction from the mud, and that's never easy to do.

One of the toughest recoveries I ever did was an H1 Hummer that a couple of women had been mudding with in an abandoned sand pit. There was a puddle, or so they thought, that put water 6" above the bottom of the door. Turned out that the mud was right up against the floorboard. Started with a regular twin-cable wrecker with 8K winches and ended up using a 35 ton HD to lift it while pulling with the smaller truck. I'll never forget the sound when it broke the suction... it was like someone put a shopvac to my ear. Got it up on drier ground and the lady fired it up and drove it home!

My uncle started out on a cutter but got seasick terrible, so he transferred out of that and wound up going to jump school and becoming a rescue diver out of the helicopters. He later went to school and became a flight engineer.

Superintendent for a turn key site contractor. That's my title. Worst part is, I do everything. Lowboy driver, dump truck driver, operator, welder, equipment mechanic, backflow tester and sometimes a laborer. The owner of the company even called me the President the other day. Not sure what i will be next. Everyday is an adventure.

One time I applied for a job at the local Hospital in the Circumcision ward, They told me the pay was 50 skins a week and a chance to get ahead. at the time I thought that was good until I found out what the pay really was.
