District 12.. Here Is Their Representative...
Friday, November 5, 2021
Good Friday Evening, I was asked to share this video by a TFI fan, W.M. regarding Southwest Airlines and #jabmandate
"Loyal Southwest Airlines employees are being forced into an impossible choice! For years, they've dedicated themselves to help make Southwest what it is today. And in return? No jab, no job. Where's the Luv???"
Disclaimer: my personal opinion is that the soundtrack detracts from the message. I turned it down and watched it in silence.

Step One: Interview ✅... Step Two: HR ✅..... Now wait
Thank you all again for the comments, emails, words of encouragement and tips for interviewing.
So far so good. I should be hearing back soon about the next steps.
There have also been others from my social network that have reached out as well and some other prospects.
Until then, I'm going to head out and enjoy a brisk Fall sunshine filled day.
Stay safe,

Waking Up To Folgers AND Finding Out Youngkin Won.... It's Gonna Be A Good Day
From CNBC: ( notice how they describe Youngkin, I added the read highlight just to help CNBC)
Glenn Youngkin, a wealthy Republican businessman, has won Virginia’s hotly contested gubernatorial election, defeating Democratic power player and former Gov. Terry McAuliffe,( who gets wealthy from donations and fundraising ), in a race that drew national scrutiny, according to an NBC News projection.
Youngkin held a slight lead over McAuliffe in the early returns. Polls closed at 7 p.m. ET.
An estimated 95% of the expected vote is in for the Virginia governor race. Youngkin won about 51% of the votes while McAuliffe won 48.3%, according to NBC’s projections.
McAuliffe, 64, and Youngkin, 54, polled neck and neck in the weeks leading up to the commonwealth’s race to succeed Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam.
McAuliffe, a longtime close friend and advisor to former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, aimed to make a comeback. He had served as governor from 2014 to 2018 for the commonwealth, which bans governors from seeking consecutive terms. He was also fighting to continue a Democratic winning streak in Virginia statewide races that began in 2012.

Way Back Wednesday
Alright readers, we had great participation in choosing this week, but almost zero suggestions. Ya'll are making it hard on me. At some point, I am going to "run out" of sex symbols. We may not make it till Christmas/NYE, but we will give it a good shot. Maureen O'Hara won the top spot. Rita Hayworth came in a very close second. This says a lot about timeless beauties. If either were alive today, they'd both be over a hundred years old. The "Angels" got their share with Farrah leading that pack and coming in around third. Suzanne Sommers got a fair amount and is worth mentioning as did Jane Seymour. Look for most of these in the final game. As a side note, I try to post three pictures of our contestants and at least one of those will be a swimsuit shot, etc.

"The Atlanta Braves still lose to many games, but thank God the New South is still the same.
I haven't watched a major league game of any kind in years, but I did catch most of the games from the World Series. I must admit I enjoyed them. I did not see any Kaepernick Shenanigan's. I enjoyed seeing President Trump and the lovely first lady there and all of the "let's go Brandon" chants. Congratulations to the Braves. They still lost too many games, but yet they won the Series.
This is a great song from a great album from a long time ago.

Words Of Wisdom.....
The days grow shorter and the nights are getting long
Feels like we're running out of time
Every day it seems much harder tellin' right from wrong
You got to read between the lines
Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can
Make it through another day
Make it worth the price we pay
The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive
I do my best to do my part
Nothin' in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve
I keep my magic in my heart
Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby
I am counting on you
You know what you've got to do
Fight the good fight every moment
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
It's your only way
All your life you've been waiting for your chance
Where you'll fit into the plan
But you're the master of your own destiny
So give and take the best that you can
You think a little more money will buy your soul some rest
You'd better think of something else instead
You're so afraid of being honest with yourself
You'd better take a look inside your head
Nothing is easy, nothing good is free
But I can tell you where to start
Take a look inside your heart
There's an answer in your heart
Fight the good fight every moment
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
Make it worth the price we pay
Every moment of your lifetime
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
Make it worth the price we pay
On the personal side of things, I have a lot of irons in the fire, one or more should pan out.
Be well , be safe, #FJB
