Days you don't expect............
Ring ring.............quick check of the caller ID.......well what the hell, might as well pick up. Me) Hello? Him) Man...I'm sorry. I'm not mad...... Me) Bullshit! You were mad....I'm past it, hope you are too. Him) Agreed. Look, I have some new stuff here, have some questions....can ya come over..faxes and stuff? Me) "long pause" Give me half an hour.....gotta clean up and put some pants on.. Him) Great!!! See you in half an hour! "CLICK" So starts my day to reconcile with my wayward uncle.....6 pack in tow and better judgment aside I go say howdy. We examine some hardware his office has tossed, as the plant he works for has been closed.....he informs me there is a pallet of more just like this. Pretty mundane printers, an inkjet fax, wait wait.......they are pitching thier phones too? "Yeah, and the monitors and keyboards all the pc's" Dude.......if you have legal scrap rights..........lets make some money!!!:) So a few beers shared and an update the family....another hug from his grand daughter who greeted me as.."Hey!! I remember you...your Zig!! Wanna read my latest book?" Which ofcourse I read with her...... A promise made.........Next weekend a road trip..........not a bad saturday......not a bad saturday at all. |
