Infrequent Blogs

I'm beginning to discover how hard it is to make regular notes. It's a good thing that I don't have a column to write in a local newspaper! I would never get it done.

Speaking of the title of this blog, I am reminded of a joke going around down here in South Texas (appropriately). It is a little off color so don't read on if you are easily offended.

An older man and older woman had each lost their spouse but they came to South Texas for the winter anyway. They met each other and began to date.

After a few weeks, they began to talk marriage. One day the woman told the man, "We need to sit down and talk about some aspects of being married before our relationship goes any farther". He agreed and they went out to dinner. After dinner, they began to talk and the old man said, "I've got to ask about sex. How do you feel about it?"

She replied, "I like it infrequently". The old man thought for a minute and then asked, "Is that one word or two?".

For some reason, jokes don't seem as funny in writing as when they are told orally. Oh, well!

Winter in South Texas

We got down here on Monday and the weather really is much nicer than at home. The high yesterday was about 70 degrees, compared to about 20 at home. Today, however, a cold front is coming through and the lows here are expected to drop to the upper 20's.

We went to Progreso, Mexico yesterday and ate and drank too much but we had a good time. I need to get the wire antenna up today so that I can talk on 20 and 40 meters. Maybe I'll get that done. I'm already adopting the "manana" attitude. I'll get done some day.
