II Cranberry bog Route 530

I love spring weather: Cool, clear and no insects. In a few months the pine flies and greenheads will bite whatever the mosquitos haven't.

Helistat

Lakehurst NJ in 1985 or 1986. The big thing in the background is an old Navy blimp attached to a frame. Four helicopter sections were suspended on the frame. The whole craft was called the Helistat. Piasecki built it for the U.S. Forest Service as an experimental aircraft.

Jim Gosnell was the electrician. He's the fellow on the left. I was his assistant. I'm on the right. There was another electrician, though I don't have a picture of him. We all called him "Mac", I think his last name was MacKenzie. We wired the Helistat.

I forget the name of the fellow in the middle. I think he was one of the Piasecki workers from Sharon Hill, though I'm not 100% sure.

Pneumonia or bust!

Spent too much time splayed out on a couch, drousy, wondering if I've got Flu, a sinus infection or pneumonia. Bored out of my head.

Argh.

There's an idea stuck in my head, a thing that Harlan Ellison wrote in a story titled Grail:

"I know my true friend will appear after my death, and my sweetheart died before I was born." -- Tanaka Katsumi.

Not remembering which story this was in, I Googled. Google confirmed my memory. Google also showed me this, again, by Harlan Ellison:

The great tragedy of my life is that in my search for the Holy Grail everyone calls True Love, I see myself as Zorro, a romantic and mysterious highwayman - and the women I desire see me as Porky Pig.
Grail (1981)
