Sounds vaguely pornographic. Maybe a good pornstar name.

Well, that's part of the reason I changed the name. I am not working with youth, but traveling around to various churches (a thing called "deputation" in the Baptist world) preaching.

Thankfully, we haven't been able to move (due to various circumstances) over to PA yet and it seems to have saved us thousands due to the major decrease in housing. Some Houses we looked at 6 months ago have dropped by 10 - 20 thousand dollars... and they were only in the 80K and below range.

So, hopefully in the next couple months we will be moving, but right now I travel on Sundays and preach and have been driving truck to make ends meet during the week (and whatever else it takes... let me tell you December is a hard month).

Good new handle! It's so hard to keep up, I thought you had some straight trucks and drivers driving them for you?

A straight truck... It was more profitable to drive it myself.

My driver got a DUI (in his personal vehicle) about two months after I let him go.

Ya'd think people would learn how quickly those DUIs impact your work. The plumbing company we use has 4 licensed plumbers. All 4 lost their drivers licenses within about 6 weeks of each other for DUI. Now they've hired retired people to drive them and their service trucks from job to job because plumbers are too hard to find.
Looks kind of funny with two 30-something men being chauffeured by 70somethings.

Depending on a man's frame of mind, some level headed types would say thats a clever name. Spreading seed amongst the homestead for plants to grow, while planting seed amonst humanity for thier souls to grow. Yep, I get and like it... good decision ZYG

Ummm... well, if you insist on discussing your thread getting off with a bang things probably won't improve much.

This may be a silly question but, er ....

why don't you use your real name?

Unless it's Englebert Crutchthorpe or something.

I never did see the attraction of fantasy handles. Maybe I should get out more. I could be Arrowhead or Thorax Son of Urgan.

I can't figure out people who use their real names on the internet.

So we're even.

If I change my name to mancat we'll be even.

People will talk.

Then someone called babycat will turn up and we'll be accused of having an illegitimate handle and banned.
