I repeat my apology for posting on this forum once again.

I'm retired basically on a fixed income and found a unique way to have enough money to go around. If I don't need it I don't buy it. I found out when I was doing my apprenticeship during the start of the Korean War if I didn't spend it I still had the money which is a rather unique concept that has allowed me to survive the several recessions we've had since those long ago days. I also learned to make myself very useful to my bosses and do the things they needed done usually without their asking me to do it. Somehow they figured it out that I did the job and didn't complain about what I had to do. Eventually I got most of the choice assignments which made things easier on my Psyche.

Not to mention whining the blues about the costs of eating in restaurants...probably expects the peons there to take pay cuts so he can feed his face for less...

Please don't feel you need to apologize for posting on this forum, and please don't stop doing so. Your posts help to lower the idjit ratio.

If he's sick of paying prices for internet, just get rid of it! If he's complaining about prices in Anchorage and how high they are, he wouldn't last one day here in Bush Alaska. If you want to whine about sky high prices there, move out here for a few months.
