No we will never be extinct, have some faith, most of us don’t wear skinny jeans and eat soy and we are proud Americans.

i cant wait till i get in local 40's apprenctice program to work with my pops. Is ironwork on a bridge different from a building?? im doing non union on a bridge and i find its alot of rigging, unlike a building where u have cranes for all the steel. its also the biggest bridge repair contract ever in canada. so i guess its alrite for my first iron job.

Keep working hard, become tough as nails and maybe (if you prove worthy) you’ll meet a man like Jimmy. I doubt it, but don’t give up.
