    I so wish we could get more youngsters into jazz, it deserves to grow into main stream genre. More power to him. PS ditto for the blues!

    I know, I am feeling so stressed just reading these back to work posts.

    9:10AM and in my usual uniform.. flannel jammies and strong coffee, readin' FHC! and gettin' into general mischieve.

    (But to be fair, I got my first job delivering papers when I was 12 in 1960 and was employed and always had at least a part time job, until 2012. - so I guess I paid my dues. I'm actually thinking about appying for a little part time gig at a drug and alchohol rehab just up above me on the hill. Maybe shoveling the walkways and driving the van and such, just for some extra motorcycle mad money.:dex:

    He's amazing Gas. Best part might be his modest attitude coming from such young talent. I hope he can always enjoy his music as fame interupts his life. Cool kid.

    Hear yah on the part-time gig. I do medical appt. drives for a community based organization a couple days a week. I get to set the schedule when I want to go in, work as much or as little as I want. Nice to get out and at the same time be involved in a ever-increasing service which is growing with the increasing aging population in this county...............:thumbs:

    Right where I want to be.
    Had that happen a few months ago. Wife called all the stores involved, and I went to the CU about it.
    Took a bit, but got all the money back.
    They somehow skimmed the debit card my wife had.
    We very rarely use a card now.....cash.

    A few years back I found $300 of bogus charges on a Mastercard. Some knucklehead in California got my card number somehow and used it to pay parking tickets ! And I've never been to California.

    This guy appear to be buying cartons of cigarettes at a grocery store chain in the north Indy area. 5 purchases of 90-100. Loser. Need to track them down and sick bocefus78 and his arsenal on them.

    That really does suck....................low lifes know no bounds. They definitely need an aditude adjustment. Problem is, all this technology we all seem to crave is exactly what these scumbags use to cloak their activities. Good luck on getting that straightened out.

    At least it's something important like smokes...it could have been worse. Could have bought something frivolous like food. :)

    Idiots!

    Boiler is humming along nicely. I just cleaned the ash pan out before dinner. Vegging while watching some TV.

    Couldn't like that. All the warnings we've had over the years on buying stuff off the internet, and it was probably a card skimmer. Hope the recovery process isn't too painful. Oh, and joy of joys (if I remember correctly) you still have to pay the charges while disputing them in order to keep it from affecting your credit. I could be wrong there as I have been blessed to not have such an issue (KOW)

    Should be off before my next statement hits. This isn't my first rodeo with this either....
