It makes me laugh...but it was my "rockingest time".
I was spending all my time working, going to college, and about every
other weekend going to a concert at the old War Memorial stadium,
which was in walking,stumbling distance.
That LP was an Aria. I left it there when I moved. Ug.
Note the reel to reel tape deck off to the right. I still have it.

No, I took the money, and the inventory, and ran.
Literally. I chickened out, was making plenty of money,
but didn't have the nerves for the ups and downs of the business
cycle. So, right after I made a killing during Christmas, I closed up shop
and sold the excess inventory, mostly at the flea market.

OK, got the 'tach joke.
Yeah, it's still around. My boys call it a catepillar.

Nope, to really be a redneck you have to be from South Carolina or a bordering state...

Affirmative.
I'm a transplant.
Or, as it's known here, a Damn Yankee.

(Definition of a yankee is a northerner.
A Damn yankee is one who won't leave).

And before someone asks...

We are called hicks here in Iowa. Rednecks is more of a southern thing...

Damn, gotta go! American Gladiators is on...

Told you I was a hick...

...And I watched the replay of the 1990 Daytona 500 today on ESPN Classic.
I'm in redneck territory. Gotta have something to talk about at work.
