Well they loaded my darlings on the "MSC Fabienne" on Sat., should arrive at the port of caldera in a couple weeks
I managed to scrape together $1000 to pay for the winches and extentions and the seller Daniel Privat(great guy)to drag em from geyserville to oakland, even tho I have not seen the trucks yet, he has been great to deal with, did not really want to do the title paper work but he did it.
I have had some real estate for sale for awhile to try and pay for this petty pet(lol)
project, which has come to pass.
My brother Capt. Tom all of a sudden emails and says he wants to pay the freight, and this is after they were already in the container waiting for the boat.
Then the dumb s o you know what, I say that in a loving manner as we do that in a satirical form of brotherhood flys down and puts the $ and then some in my bank account here, which had 43 cents in it, i don't put money in the bank usually as the last time i did they wanted to know where i got it when i got it what i do for a living when i do it and who i do it with
anyway the he proceeds to tell me he has terminal 4 cancer and they give him 6 months without chemo and 1 and half years with it.
I told him I could cure him if he would stay down here and talking to him is like talking to a brick wall and if he doesn't like what you are saying or does not fall into his way of thinking then all hell can break loose.
But he is starting to listen and wanted to stay another week and he actually told the nurse he was gonna post pone his first of 4 treatments one every two weeks. Which was ok with me.
Next thing I knew he got off his phone he was emailing to my mother and sister and said godamn it i am going home.
I showed him a lot of stuff while he was here and at times he expressed great interest, and others all hell broke loose as his mind control stepped in, bute at least he has it with him if he needs it
He is a tough turkey and has been thru a lot, recovered alcoholic and makes all his meetings, problem is he turned his drinking adddiction into an eating addiction and that is what has gotten him into trouble.
I could cure him without the chemo(lol), who knows, maybe the chemo will shrink it and during and after he can clean himself up.
My guess is he can make it either way
So give a Prayer and a Blessing to Capt. Tom
helluva heart, sometimes you don't know it but the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
