Sorry about this one ladies. I almost skipped May because
honestly, I find
Tom to be the most
unsexy underground gold miner of the year. I guess he's
all right if you're into
much older men, but he kind of
reminds me of my
grandpa Steve who has
dementia. I guess it also
depresses me a
little to think about how
even gold miners get old, which always make me think about
I'm getting old and how I've also
gained a lot of
weight over the past year. Fortunately for me,
I never have to
worry about not realizing I've gotten
too fat, because once I get a little
pudgy, Dale starts asking me to
change my clothes in the
bathroom. Since he's out of town on business I've been
walking around the house
naked eating
ice cream just to prove this is one
woman who can't be told what to do!!
Even though
he must be days from
retirement, this month's
miner is still a real sharp
cookie, unlike my
grandpa who can't remember
his name and
writes on the bathroom wall with
poo. "Every task underground demands a
sharp mind, including
loading the cars from
a chute. Every miner knows at least one story about
'the fool killer'. In our mine, a
powerful but natural
force permeates the workings. It's called Mother Nature."
Sorry again for this old guy in the picture, I promise more
underground beefcake next month.

Why pick on the guy with gray hair? Are you an age-ist?
I'm not an age-ist. I love everyone regardless of how old they are. But if people I meet are old, they usually make me feel depressed because of their closeness to death. Like, I might catch it if I am around them too long. I know that sounds crazy, but so did the idea that the earth was round and the one about eggs being unhealthy. Or are they supposed to be healthy now? Either way, you know what I mean.
