Talk about perks, my career had one of the best I can think of! I traveled in the course of business, delivering classes for my employer. I was a Senior Training Specialist for Motorola Solutions, and taught classes on a wide variety of subjects centered around 2-way radio communications. I knew that when the time arrived that I would retire, and I have. I've always said that if you can't stand the heat in the kitchen, get out! I can't handle the heat anymore. I was qualified to deliver approximately 32 different classes, but about half of those were 'Legacy' classes, and were not in demand anymore. My students were technicians, those who maintained, programmed, calibrated, and repaired large 2-way radio systems. Some of these systems are statewide, and use TCP-IP networking to allow sites to communicate with others. Some are small, traditional type radio sites. The size doesn't matter, in each case the systems must be kept operational at all times, since many of them are Public Safety Systems. So I traveled, sometimes frequently, 3-4 weeks in a row.... where have I been? Some of the places I've been (I can't list them all here, the list would be too long) are pretty interesting. 1. Hawaii - Four times, Oahu, Maui (twice), and the Big Island, Plus I lived on Oahu from 74-83. 2. Bangkok Thailand, twice 3. Frankfurt Germany, twice 4. Algiers, Algeria 5. Melbourne Australia 6. Bismarck North Dakota, Summer & Winter 7. California, especially the Los Angeles area, Too many times to count 8. Washington DC, Too many times to count 9. Seattle three or four times 10. Texas, all over the state 11. Florida, all over the state 12. New Mexico, HOME! Several times  Best Cultural And Regional Honorable Mention |
The Nordics (Aliens) The two or three of you who might read my ramblings may have realized that I am a bit enthralled with stories or videos that deal with Alien Races. I can't help it, it is what it is. I also enjoy watching a series of video's on FB called the Why Files. This video is at this link. I enjoy his videos a bit, but if I want to post here, I will cross check his info to make sure it's not complete BS. Some of it is. (BTW, I can't stand that little Goldfish called Hecklefish) I just think he posts interesting information that's worth knowing. That's this video. But it's a bit sensational because he wants to draw in viewers, and money. I used Wikipedia to check the information here. This YouTube video is a bit more objective in nature, but be careful what you'll believe. Otherwise you might become a bit like me. One who embraces Conspiracy theories and Ancient Aliens. What I'm wanting to convey in this post is to prepare to learn that we are not alone in this Universe. I didn't say world, but aliens could live among us. It seems almost every novel or movie portrays aliens as human-like. That may not be the case. I am almost positive that we are not the only intelligent race in the Universe. We could be, but I seriously doubt it. |
