Say Hello to Johnny 5

Have you ever seen the movie "Short Circuit", made back in 1986? Johnny 5, the robot, was the star of the movie.

This past Friday was Debbie's last day on her temp assignment with a contractor to American Eagle. Their contract with AE ended this month. They had a nice "going away" time for Debbie and one gift they presented to her was "Johnny 5".
Early in Debbie's employment she saw this 2-hole punch. The way it was designed, when she looked at it she said, "That looks like 'Johnny 5'! And that became the name of the Hole Punch for the next year. On her last day one of the American Eagle co-workers told her to take "Johnny 5" home! Check out those cute little "eyes" on Johnny 5!
Debbie was blessed with some great co-workers you can see below, from left -- John and Steve from Minnesota, Kip from Mississippi, and Alan from New Mexico.
Debbie sure did enjoy this year with American Eagle, the Empower MX team she worked with, and with a lot of new friends made at American Eagle. And I've always told you that I have a very sweet and creative and interesting Bride!!

I admit, I do have some strange ideas at times, but all four of the guys (when they needed the two-hole punch) referred to it as "Johnny 5". One of them had never seen the movie so I took it to him to watch. Then he understood why I said the hole punch looked like Johnny 5.

It sounds like you worked with some nice people. Johnny 5... well I might have to watch this movie so I understand.

Your hair looks great!
