You know what? Instead of belly aching or crying, this gentleman got off his butt and searched a way to pay the bills with the gutter business. He's not looking for the government to bail him out.
Binderman, you are a great American. :!:

Thanks for the kind words, however i have to say if i wasnt able to draw unemployment at the same time it would be very hard to pay the bills. There just isnt anything going on in my part of the country. I am lucky that i am able to draw since they consider me "temporarily layed off", I was supposed to be called back in april or may but, they just keep pushing it back. I am also lucky that the wife still has her job.
