I arrived late for my shift at Razom today. PA Route 222 stopped for miles outside of Ephrata. I slithered off the highway in the breakdown lane and got to the PA Turnpike by a half-dozen back roads I know.
I spent most of the afternoon stuffing Halo chest seals into the kit at the beginning of the line. It's sad to think of the need for these bandages, but good to be able to help get them where they are needed.
Toward the end of the day, I worked opposite Joey (in the foreground of the lower picture). He works in radio doing voice overs and running several radio-related businesses. We talked about working in radio, then in theater, then he told me he had performed at the Fulton Theater in Lancaster when he was going to Temple University.
We joked a lot about "Footloose." I said it was one of the worst movies I had ever seen, but with the best soundtrack. Joey had been to an annual festival in Payson, Utah, the town where the movie was filmed. The town is called Bomont in the movie. I told Joey I had seen the musical version of "Footloose" in the Fulton Theater and really liked it--the musical was much better than the movie and the songs were even better live.
We then talked about war movies, which ones we liked and which ones we didn't. We are both fans of the HBO Series "Band of Brothers"and "The Pacific."
Several of us will be back tomorrow. Part of a larger crew. The biggest crew is always on Saturday.
