Happy New Year!
Well it's happy new year if you are a Skuttle employee. Up is good and we ended the previous year up, and in this economy and manufacturing sector that is a good thing. (Turn doom and gloom music on here). Up is up, I'll take it.
Always wanted to know what it was like to take a walk on the sun, or was that a walk in the sun? Either way it is hot; we're not used to seeing 90+ until August but this year is going to be hot. And to think I couldn't wait until summer............... but I have to force myself to remember that our population's discomfort is good for our business, so bring it on!
How hot is it you ask? It's so hot that a friend told me that he cooked some steaks the other day on the deck. No grill needed, just the deck.
Went to West Carteret Wednesday night to judge some senior projects, saw some interesting projects presented by exceptional students. They would have thrown me out by middle school nowadays. These kids are smart, talented, and have so many resources at their fingertips. Its changed a lot even since Jay came through, and with the information technology evolving at speeds faster than we can comprehend. The future looks very bright. Hang on a second,,,,,,,, on the phone.......yes, here is my social security number, I'll just think about what it is, see if you can get it.
Caught a few fish with TAR last Monday afternoon, maybe we can go one day this weekend. Jackson wants to get back up to Swift Creek and tackle some bream; we'll see. If I get some parts in Saturday should be a motorcycle day.
And looky here who is sitting in the White House with the Big O himself: Butch Hoell, Rocky Mount boy doing quite well. Butch is the second person to the left of the guy who really wanted to make sure everyone in Bugtussle saw him by wearing his favorite yellow shirt. Governor The Joker took some help to DC to explain what NC is doing to prepare for the hurricane season. The early hot weather could be a red flag we'll see a few more than normal this year; hope that is only a coincidence. Wonder if they all flew coach or took the train?

And lastly a picture submitted by another Rocky Mount boy done good, the FO with a photograph of the grave of Leslie Nielson. Let er rip indeed; I saw him in the DC airport once; he grabbed the buttocks of the woman there to pick him up and made a funny noise. She squealed with delight, do all ladies enjoy this type of tomfoolery? Inquiring minds need to know; I'm going to do some research. In the mean time RIP, or let er rep Shirley. 
Off to Boston for a couple of days next week, need to lard up with massive doses of cold seafood and Samuel Adams
