    They don't know what they don't know. I seriously doubt those answering the question never had any idea of that type of work. For that matter they still probably don't have any idea.

    I spent the last three weeks with my mother in hospice. Of course, dad, my brother, sisters, and wife were there also. Our family was raised on the farm. I told the nurses to tell me the truth about everything. I told them I was raised on the farm and I knew where bacon came from.

    Maggie’s Garmin $3K watch

    I wear the watch my guys gave me when I retired. I use it to see what time it is whenever I am at a place that I don't have my cellphone - mostly military funerals. I don't wear my watch otherwise . . . because my guys gave it to me when I retired . . . and I don't want to get it damaged.
