About Our Charliep

[charliep]

I don't think you could afford me bucket and that would not be because of my high salary. My last farm machine was in combine doing canola. Before the better McDon swather so lots of wads in the field. That meant lots of getting out and unplugging the combine. My last stint was at night. I thought I was doing really well. Relaxed to open a coke for just a second. I won't go any further.

I first became aware of Charlie when he worked for Growers Marketing Services. I was a client whom I'm sure the office at GMS had nicknamed "Margin Call". Talk about the old days, really old?

When you do finally "leave for others to comment", (retire), I wish for you happy trails on that bike, memorable folk festivals you can't remember, and good times.

How's SAMCRO doing these days?

Just started season 4. One of the charactures I like (Juice) has just made a bad mistake. Scared to watch as I think this may not end well.

I won't spoil it. The predictable thing about SOA is it's unpredictable. Enjoy!

Question for you, Charliep:

Getting to know people through their AV handles and then meeting that handle in real life, is bound to bring a few surprises. After all, who we imagine is not always who we are faced with. A man could turn out to be a woman, for instance!

Whoom AV has surprised you the most, Charliep? Pars.

Actually most people I know on Agriville have been friends for a long time. I sometimes surprised when they give me their handles but then postings makes sense. Not so many new people. Pretty much stay in the boarders of Alberta so meeting people from SK and MB is tough.

You introduced yourself at the WBGA convention. You had dropped enough hints on Agriville and we common friends so not so surprised.

All the best. Charlie
Call for a wee dram if you do a trip to UK.

one more thing,heard in the coffee shop there was something positive on agri-ville.charlie you said something awhile back that farmers were leaving at lest a dollar a bushel on the table.i learned alot from that and you have made some good money for me since,thank-you and have a great retirement.

Ride on Charlie though I sense you'll be around for a while yet. You've done a very credible job over the years educating farmers on how to market their products (although I think this whole system is a whacky way of doing business) and providing continuos accurate marketing information. Just a word of caution from one who knows - the problem with retirement is that you never get a day off!

I heard Charlie is just taking on a new position with a Company called "Doless & Seemore". Enjoy ;-)

Nice work with Agriville Charlie.

Enjoy retirement whenever that time arrives.

Just noticed the thread.

Thanks for All you've done CharlieP Like whomever made the comment about "Old School" govt employees who go above and beyond.

Hope you enjoy retirement and find something rewarding in your future years.
I've always enjoyed your posts and can't think of a time I've lowered my opinion of you. It keeps building. If your travels take you to Saskatchewan feel free to stop in.
