Jim

Post by Ranger Ron »

Got a phone call from Jim last night. He was calling to let someone know that he has been in the dark the last several days. I told him we knew he was in the dark since he lives in DC. His computer took a hit too. He is getting it repaired today. He should be back with us soon.

I spoke with him last night and this a.m.

Says the surge protector failed and his power system got fried.
He's getting new unit as he is in warranty period.

Jim don't want to say it but he slipped in his flipflops and broke several ribs on his porch during pouring rain the other night. He's inbibbing Satan's older Sister, Scotch, to ease his pain.
The Ranger in him keeps him driving on.

Rumors of my recent injury are exaggerated. Slipped the other nignt, fell against the railing on my deck and cracked a couple ribs. Thank God it wasn't worse. Right shoulder is very stiff. Taking industrial strength Motrin and sleeping. I'll survive.
