It would have been nice to meet up Ricky. I just saw this post. I usually am more involved with this board this time f year but not having a 1st rounder kind of takes the air out of things.

 Seattle is what San Francisco used to be.
Portland is what Seattle used to be.
Could live (and have) in any of those 3 places.

 I know it's just natural curiosity for someone we all know for a long time going through something ... but whenever you're ready Dan, I'm sure we all are too.

Speaking of someone we all knew ... I saw Ward Peterson's doppelganger at the WHL playoff game last night in Portland. Crazy.

One guy with a past...Oh sure he's ok.
Another guy with a past...NO ****ING WAY I EVER WANT HIM ON MY TEAM.

One guy with a past people make excuses for and the other guy gets no chance.

I'm throwing up my hands. Some of you are actually trying to poo poo drug trafficking. I don't have a problem with either guy no matter how we got them if the front office did their job and vetted them appropriately.

I've said my peace. You guys want to keep arguing it...be my guest.

I went back to work on a graveyard shift job, doing CNC machine cutting of granite and marble for a specialty high end construction supply company..

I am still in the grinder that has attempted to completely destroy my family's cohesion.

I have beat back repeated attempts to destroy the things I hold most dear, one of which is My integrity and another, my values.

I have been told that my situation could take until October to shake out, but in the end, I Will Be Vindicated.

My life revolves around dates on a calendar that have no rhyme or reason to anyone but those who are attempting to destroy me.

The sad part is that they " know" they are beaten, but they refuse to admit they made a mistake, continue to make my family jump through a myriad of "performance " hoops like trained circus animals, and deliberately, with unwitting malice, dig their own graves for the time of reckoning.

4/19, 4/20, 4/26, 4/28, 5/11, ........ signposts on the journey... unremarkable days in any other context, yet those days rule my life.

4/15/2017 would have been my Father's 84th birthday.
I miss you, dad.

The problem is with the state of Nebraska.

It is a ****ued up state with ****ued up laws and ****ued up priorities. Just look at all the criminals who get to play football for "Big Red".....

Go Nebraska.. straight to hell.

Status: offline 		Quit my job last night...

Had a lead person who was nothing but critical and bitchy about everything I did because it was not " his" way..

Bitched that I was washing off the cutting machine with too much water preasure because he walked out past where I was spraying it off and got splashed... I forgot to initial a blueprint when I started the cut job and he went balistic, wouldn't let me sign it after the fact and went to the shift sup, who had to come talk to me about my "mistake, that was causing a problem, according to Juan"....

When my sup got in last night, late, I might add, I handed him my paperwork, told him I could not work under constant verbal harassment from Juan, and told him I can find a job anywhere... I quit.. then I called and left a voice mail with the plant manager that basically said the same thing.

I have no patience for a nit picking, anal retentive, backstabbing, brown nosing crybaby "lead man" who got all bent because I was not his robot slave... "yes massa", shore thing Massara... right away massa....just as you say, massa....

**** that.

I have news of a happier sort. I just returned from a weekend in St. Louis where, for the second time, I played the part of "mother of the groom." My youngest son just married the most wonderful companion and we all had a wonderful time celebrating their marriage. The weather stunk (rained the entire time which made them use the plan B for what would have been an outdoor wedding), but everything else went well.

I have now watched my two amazing, creative, smart, handsome and awesome sons find and marry women who I am thrilled to call my daughters-in-law. They both picked life partners who bring out the best in them. Life is really good.

I have other matters, more important to take care of first, though.

I know it is hard for most people to see how not having a job is not a high priority, but trust me.. sometimes there are things more important than work..

Mine is a family issue.

I will leave it at that..

I have a very important day in my life coming up on May 11th.

The good news is that I am ready and I know it is going to be a good day on some level, the bad news is that it is not the end of my journey and I'm sure I'll have many more dates on my calendar that will interfere with "normalcy"...

such is life...

Congratulations Lynn, I am really happy for you and your family. My daughter got married last August and I am grateful that she married a caring man, who seems to put her first and treat her like the Princess that I think she is.
