The name sounds familiar, but I'm terrible with names. I'm currently playing in the over 35 draft league, so its a different group of people every season. I think it's a holdover from my army days, but since no one is wearing nametags I have a real hard time remembering peoples names anymore.
That makes perfect sense.
I used to know all the Winterhawks names, more so now I know them by their numbers.
I'm guessing you've always been known as "the cool dad" in the area.
I might be better know as "that guy with all the old junk" to my neighbors.
But I don't really give a rip about them.
We have lived in this house for 25 years now and don't really know any of them but the super elderly family next door.
I went to a "Get to know the neighbors" BBQ a few years ago.
I was asked where I lived and I pointed to the house.
"Oh. You like all the old cars."
That was the last time I spoke to any of them really....
The one person in the area I talk too, just built a fence between our front yards.
I told him that is pretty much the end of us talking.
He looked offended and back peddled like it wouldn't hamper our front yard chats.
Nick, you are just over five feet tall and you built a six foot fence between our yards.
Do the math.
^^^^^^^^^^^^With all the help he has given to many of the kids around......more like Really Cool Bitchin Dad !!!!!!!!^^^^^^^^^^
I am making amends for my Pa always working and not really making time for us or our friends.
All they have to do is ask and usually I help out with advice or parts if I have them.
They all call or text me if they have a need I can help with.
Max's girlfriend Alisha, was looking for a better job as a welder as the place she was working was making "odd" decisions.
I hooked her up with a guy I know that is a union shipbuilder.
She called him and talked for a while and he was happy to help her if she needed it.
Alisha ended up finding a spot on her own before he was needed.
Now she is working in a shop that builds Coast Guard boats of all kinds.
