In Honor of Merrie Olde Englande

071224_005P.jpg

My friend John Cooper called today. What a great surprise. We had a long pleasant conversation. In honor of John I decided (actually Robert decided) that it might be appropriate to get some ale. To my great delight it is made in ENGLAND, which means that England really does exist, unlike Renton. I became quite fond of English brews when I traveled to England fairly frequently. Many an evening was spent at the Snake Catcher in Brockenhurst. They also had great pub food and a skittles alley.

Forgot to mention, I have drunk many bottles of Newcastle Brown.
I am not sure if people from Newcastle accept that they are just English.
They are "Geordie" first and English second, and British not at all.

If you have ever taken a long flight on a Boeing 737, you would probably wish that Renton hadn't existed. Now the Lockheed 1011, that was a comfortable aircraft.

I have never been on a Boeing 737, that must prove something.
Proving Renton is non existent is quite a long project, and I am busy photographing Leptons at the moment. (Love and charm is a future project).
Nothing wrong with being a character Dave, it did no harm to Superman or Robin Hood.
When you become an Item of discussion at a psyops class, you have really made it, you will be a legend, which is better than a character.

If Renton doesn't exist, then any flight you have taken on any Boeing 737 was a flight of fancy, as those planes are assembled in Renton. I began my Boeing career in that final assembly building.
Note to self: if Cross or Cooper prove that Renton doesn't exist, then am I just a character is somebody's dream, or a item of discussion in a psyops class?
