Never too late

What I do is help manage recreation facilities ; pools, senior centres, youth centres and multigenerational facilities.

It's a wonderful job where I get to  help provide top quality leisure services to my community.
It's exciting and fast moving....

U r right Drift 1.... Good therapy would be a good ride on a sunny spring day! Almost there!

Cheers NHL

NTL:  Sounds like you're on the road to recovery.   So what does a recreation manager do?  Do you manage public parks and such?  Sounds interesting!  I pray you are blessed with a full recovery and can go back to work soon.

Sorry I made a mistake in my calculations..a touch of stupid creeping in..I was in Nam in 1965, not 1963 and I was 21 years old..

I came out of the British army and was very twitchy, I kept seeing the same faces that I had been shooting at as I walked the streets of London, I got that feeling between my shoulder blades that some of you may know..so I signed on a Shell tanker..

 and some time in the future some of you will reach that goal....lol...some are already there.......

Old often equates to wisdom......


CDNRatMan

  1963   ok figure it out, how old were you in 1963?

I did not join the CF till 1972, almost 10 years later, and people call me old........

old (ld)
adj. old·er, old·est
1.
a. Having lived or existed for a relatively long time; far advanced in years or life.
b. Relatively advanced in age: Pamela is our oldest child.
2. Made long ago; in existence for many years: an old book.
3. Of or relating to a long life or to people who have had long lives: a ripe old age.
4. Having or exhibiting the physical characteristics of age: a prematurely old face.
5. Having or exhibiting the wisdom of age; mature: a child who is old for his years.
6. Having lived or existed for a specified length of time: She was 12 years old.

somethings you just can not candy coat...old is old.....and most people are proud of being old.....

I'm a USMC Viet Nam Vet , doing 2 tours, and returning in 1970.

It seems we have something in common, I worked for Shell during the Viet Nam war and did three trips delivering Napalm to various parts of Nam in 1963..At least that was what we were told we were delivering..

The US Government paid us 100% of our wages as danger money, we thought we were going to make our fortunes but when we got back the British government called it unearned income and charged us 97.5% tax..

Agreed,great for fishing......shouldn't have opened a new can of worms in discussions....something for the Frigate.....I do apologize

RATMAN please no pics.....as far as were i was going with the previous post about worms having both organs,I myself work for the main power company in NYC( CON EDISON) so just imagine what I see.......for example the last post about the females hair being longer then males,not always true in these parts.....if you catch my drift,but for my own good,I'll leave this topic alone.......lmao

Is that done the same way as with chickens?  Can you ever make up your mind......?

It takes years of study, and you have to watch carefully to see if they are coming or going..

but a little trade secret, the females have longer hair than the males.

John.

    ;) Troll got the shovel, or do you need to see th picture again?

Drifter1 ? not sure were you are going with that.

RATMAN this is right up your alley,my man.They say Canada is the best breeding grounds for this sexer thing a ma jig bussiness.Reason being they breed in the cold.50 degrees and above the breeding ceases....(sound familiar?)I don't know about this man,but anything with both male and female organs around my parts,I generally tend to stay away from that's a whole nother topic....LOL.....I'm just saying
