Bob was a Florida boy - born in 1942 on the east central area we like to call 'The Space Coast.' He spent some time in the Air Force and was stationed at Eielson Air Force Base. Bob and I have that in common, and I can tell you from experience... Eielson AFB is cold, and when I say cold, I mean it's like sittin' in the bait freezer at the Stuart Angler, or maybe...

I hope you enjoyed my post, laughed a little andlearned a little, too.

Now, sit and relax a spell with me, and watch 'The Joy of Painting.'

   Peace,

   Max
