That's what my long-term temporary job is all about. Big metal propeller fan blades in gold, silver, black, brass, and probably in other colors. Yeah, there's engine/turbine parts, and navigational equipment, but it's mostly those propellers. All schematics, diagrams, plans and designs are written in Norwegian. Today I sent a man to a place near Oxnard - Hueneme... I think, booked him a flight on Alaska Airlines, and hotel at Holiday Inn, the parts sent on their way to dry dock, for the vessel Polar Endeavour. Or something like that. Rolls Royce Marine parts mostly come from the parts place in New Orleans. That's a little funny about the time continuum...What's also funny is that the Receptionist is moving to Austin. Half the employees have been laid off. My boss is from Scotland - he just got back. The names are a little funny about things. I think it's only a temporary assignment. I think after that I'll have just enough money to move to Denver, in time for the no hiring season at New Years, so then I'll get some dole. Merry Christmas, you're fired. I'll move to the Denver hostel and sleep on a mattress bed. There won't be any writing with this lack of money and lack of intelligence and lack of compassion and lack of a city. But, I will get an overall, more detailed outline done, with aside notes, and write some songs for it, and pages of notes - just bullet point notes. The writing should be easy and to the point, all done right together at once and done with a head of white hair. When I'm happy - I don't know when that will be.
