I forgot to mention I did get a couple gifts for my birthday. One is money for Florida trip and the other is a video game that can be played on Atari 7800, Atari 7800+, and 2600+.

@Mr Ferret 75 . . . just wondering: were you in Wisconsin recently -- some pals of yours? 🤔

'Masked' raccoons ejected from Wisconsin home
-- 2 incriminating photos at end of story --

Aug. 19 (UPI, reported by Ben Hooper) -- Police in Wisconsin responded to "an unusual home intrusion" involving a gang of "multiple masked suspects" -- raccoons.

The Wausau Police Department said on social media that multiple raccoons made their way into the home on the city's east side, and two lookouts were spotted "loitering on the roof -- almost taunting the responding officers."

Police said no arrests were made, "but the raccoons did receive a firm warning to vacate the premises (this warning was largely ignored)."

The department said the incident should serve as a reminder to keep homes secured from wildlife and ensure trash cans, pet food and bird feeders are out of reach of unwanted diners.

"As always, if there's an immediate safety concern, call us and we'll help make sure everyone stays safe," the post said. "These 'masked bandits' may look cute, but it's best to admire them from a distance!"

Not a bit surprised his raccoon pals were in Wisconsin, but they also were at places outside of Wisconsin.;)

I am saying this because his raccoon pals had to influence Universal to create a drink at a bar in Epic Universe. I was checking Epic Universe menu's due to future Florida trip and looked at specialty drinks.

One of the drinks on this menu is called Rambling Raccoon's Margarita and this is the proof:

at least I would have known for sure. Now I’ll never know if I could have been a successful actor.

After my military stint, at age 23 I was the manager of a Ben Franklin Variety Store.
At 25, I switch to the field of web printing and advertising. At age 35, I owned and operated a Level 4 Residential Home with my wife, caring for mentally and physically challenged people and the elderly and during that 15 year period I also was doing bookkeeping for a Earth Moving company, Did payroll and HR for a local High School District and also dabbled in Travel Agency work. (not all at the same time, of course) At 50, I worked as a contract receivables manager for a large scale Construction Company. By the age of 53, I got completely tired of the rat race and any form of management at all and made an unexpected but enjoyable occupation switch to being a municipal bus driver and at 56 I took the position of Field Operations manager at the same bus company. All that led to my retiring at age 63 and that is where I am currently. I prefer not to think about how my next experience might turn out. ❓😰

Anyway I wouldn't advise that anyone do what I did because one has to be insane. Everyone of those changes are completely voluntary due to boredom and also due to my personal ADHD but my real point was there never is a time in one's life were one can't change. If it is necessary to work in a field that you are not happy with, use it as a step, as a way to maybe save up to finance a more risky field such as acting, leaving you with the freedom to give it time to happen and not be eating out of a dumpster or being a waiter at the Cheesecake Factory. As long as one is physically able it is possible to follow a dream at any age.

I received a degree in Business Management because the one thing I knew was that I didn't want to dig ditches for a living, but that was the only solid desire that I had. When working for the Earth Moving company I did get to watch others digging ditches and that was much nicer than doing it.

P.S. None of the above listed occupations I experienced could be labeled as my dream. My personality flaw, one of them anyway, was that I never had anything special in mind in my life. But I was successful in supporting myself and my family in all the areas I got involved with. Not a lofty goal like being an Actor or a Doctor or an Astronaut, Fireman and so on. I wanted to experience so many things, but the stress of learning something new so often was indeed tiring which led me to the bus driving gig. Follow a predetermined path, let people on and off and when the day was done, just going home with nothing to catch up on the next day. Man, that was nice. Anyway good luck with your career(s) and don't ever think it is to late.
