    Stan’s CPU and memory chips could probably use an upgrade. (LOL Wish it were that easy!).

    You might say he gets lost in his thoughts.

    It’s the quiet ones you have to watch, they say.

    I confess that the older I get , the less loquacious I have become. Possibly, because I am slightly hard of hearing and everyone, including my wife are speaking in rapid fire dialectical Spanish, it forces me to concentrate. That means that I have to process what’s said and think before I open my big mouth.

    Ironically, this makes me appear much deeper, and far more intelligent than I really am.

    Stan has got this quiet data processing pose, down pat.

    There are those who process things internally (thinking) and those who process things externally (talking). It’s not hard to identify who does what.

    Ducking and running away now very, very fast.

    As i went into Newport today to go do my volunteer time at the animal shelter i noticed that the big gray van i saw at the Power Ford Car Sales there last week was still there.At some level i mad the connection that it might be the same van that i saw at the Power Used Cars in Lincoln City a few weeks ago.I stopped in and looked at it. Yup, could be. Same $20k price that i was told when i called the Lincoln City lot last month. It is actualy a van to bus conversion with a wheelchair lift.And is probably has a big V8. And it probably has lots of miles. And there is no telling what kind of mechanical problems it has. And its far bigger than i want and need for my job.So why do i lust for it?If it is in the lot next week when i go into town i may take a closer look. If it is still siting in the lot it may be a big white elephant for the company. Who knows?Well, i can dream about miracles, even if i don’t believe in them.
