| | | Attention SOKSers
Today I recieved some good news, I'll be starting work again come Monday. It's been a while since I've worked and have as such run out of savings. I have been fortunate that it has allowed me more time with my kids so it's not so bad. In short I shall soon be able to attend SOKS functions. you'll notice in the time since you've seen me that my gorgeous flowing locks are longer save those patches that I've ripped out (see above comment re-kids), and still just as good looking. Looking forward to seeing the old gang of treasonous thugs.
Grant out.

Insulation, not exactly what I trained for but the money is on par with what I was making before my plant closed down with a potential for significant extra money (lot's of OT). And as an added bonus it's a Mike Holmes 'approved' business so watch for me on TV  . Won't be wearing a kilt though, don't want any accidental exposures when working with the blown-in insulation or for co-workers refusing to holding the ladder for me! How's the job hunt going for you?

Not good, I don't think insulation is one of those times where a kilt would be good at all.

Grant,
I for one think that Pete's worries are without merit as I don't think it is possible for your ego to expand any further.
You know it is no fun writing a story about you when you aren't around! 
In truth I am very happy for you
Cheers
Jamie

Way to go little fella! I've been out since March but there are a few lights on the horizon.
