I am having been so enlightened and lightened since I found this place. I unfortunately can't stay as the many facets of my life call. I need to go to about five different suppliers today and then go work tonight for a former tree faller. (A tree fell on him and profoundly altered his life.) I'm about the only one thick skinned enough to have worked for him as long as I have. Here in Humboldt it's hard for employers to find workers as they have to compete with the growers who offer $20 an hr to sit in a barn, trim buds and get loaded. This poor guy offers $10 an hour and you have to contend with his justifiable bitterness, abasing comments and tasks that require gloves.
I have a long 24 hrs. ahead of me.
I look forward to checking back in in a day or two.ciao

Put another set off headphones on Cernunnos. How about a little of the old Ludwig van with that coke?

*doing happy dance*

WOOT!! The Wife is leaving me. Life is really really good. Oh joy, oh rapture. Bear wallow heaven.

Bad news is only for a night :cry: Tried to talk her into two nights, but don't think it worked.

She's already setting up the house, food, etc. so I don't die on her. Cripes been on my own more then I've been married. I mean it's like no credit for doing that, at all. I can run a microwave and I still can open a can of beans. She'll probably cook up more food then I could eat in a week just to be safe.

Probably I'll do stupid things making coffee, I do that anyway. Don't need food, nicotine and coffee, the two main food groups anyone really needs for long sustained life. Once and a while a piece of chocolate. I think that's in the vegtable group.

If you can use the microwave, you are a far better domesticated person than I will ever be. I attempted to iron my pants this morning and have the burn to prove it. :(

Stupid woman! If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times! Take them OFF before ironing them.

Lemon... the silly program is the Java Ascii Versatile Editor. It tells you there how to get it going. It's "Ascii Art" - almost a lost art, these days. A pity, because it can be quite nice for a quick impact, without, as you said, fiddling about with cameras, scanners, uploads, linking.

So how come page 200 isn't full? I predicted yesterday afternoon, then everyone stopped posting (until I went away, and you all went on furiously posting).

And for my next song...

I'm present, but not very talkative. Nothing very interesting to say. I'll just drink my coffee and read the funnies. Maybe I'll put some twinkle lights on the potted plant in preparation for the big 200th.

After all, what's the point in being embarrassed once, when you can be embarrassed twice!
