Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Kid #3 got signed for a boat this summer... he found what he wanted... a short run (6 weeks) in the Berring sea. It was harder than I had hoped.... he is super humble, and doesn't market himself well. All other job offers have been because someone saw him working...

This was the first time he had to get a job by jumping in cold... and ask people who don't know him.

I was starting to worry he wouldn't get on a boat... I tried coaching him... but... he just wouldn't market himself.

So... it isn't the best boat, but it isn't a bad one... so should be fine.... :fl pray with me that he stays safe and makes a bundle. (And yeah, safe is more important than the money, but both sure would be nice.

And...if he decides to do it again, he will hopefully be able to move up to a better boat.

There is a training tomorrow, all full... he is going to show up anyway, and hope they let him join.


Ah... and I didn't mention that kid #2 found a campus job that comes with a free apartment.

So he is staying up there for the summer.

Not too many hours are required for the job... so he will also take 2 classes.
Nice! Will pray!
It's always a good (and sad) feeling when they branch out.
 
Good morning, Pond.
Horse came from back of the back #21 and won it all it all.
Rich Strike was his name Beautiful Moving animal !
And this from the 21 slot.
2nd biggest longshot in history and biggest for this century! Biggest longshot was Donerail in 1913 at 91:1 odds :eek:
This horse was obtained for $30,000 in a claiming race. Ya gotta wonder. The horse flew, and the jockey did a great job of maneuvering through the field. He appears to have a bit of an attitude as he was trying to bite the lead pony and rider after the race. Maybe that's why he was let go ?
