I do think the unfortunate employees that remain after the dust settles may have a little more empathy for people who face layoffs and job loss.
For many years the Journal Star reporters almost sneered at the thousands of Cat employees struggling to make ends meet.
Now they get to walk in those shoes and the amused disinterest seems to have evaporated. Especially ironic is that this sob story is written by Paul Gordon —— the business editor who during our struggle with Caterpillar failed to see how any of what we went through could ever affect him.
Now it is possible he might lose his job and he suddenly sees the light. It is not funny how that works. I feel for them —— been there, done that.
Arrggghh! ... I am NEVER any good at these things yet I waste time fooling with them! Thanks a lot!

Yea, I’ve wasted way too much time and the best I’ve got is 10. If you click on ‘view scoreboard’ they show the top ten scores. I don’t think they are accurate, note the disclaimer. STUPID GAME! But I do like the sound and did you notice the dust cloud when the ball hits the ground?

I managed to get an 11 but it was a fluke. I’ll have to look again because I didn’t see the dust cloud. I don’t think those scores are right either.
