These are memories of my 45 years working in the Electric Power Field. Mostly as an Electric Journeyman Lineman climbing and building power lines across America. Traveling Linemen were called "Tramps". Many of my expressions, terms, tool names and actions are used only in the Lineman Trade. I will try to explain them as I go and try not to interrupt the stories. (Which, by the way, are mostly true)
Cats and sex enhance our lives, although in most unpredictable ways. Cats aren't great sexual loves, and we usually arrange certain surgery. They find other ways to exchange love. These are tales (tails?) of true sensual affection -- in no way bestiality. Would a feline SOL have a code for humanity? I promise I laughed hysterically once I stopped screaming in the true story.
The true story of a young man's frustration at living in a quiet backwater and how he overcome his lot in life. A tribute to a friend. Previously posted on Finestories
