We have a friend, Susan Myers, who has a daughter at MIT.
You wouldn't know any female Myers at MIT, would you Sush?
Interesting people.
They live "off the grid".
Susan does body work and raises goats!

Don't know them, sorry.

One book you might be interested in, Taos: Better Off: Flipping the Switch on Technology. It's written by Eric Brende, and MIT grad who lived off the grid in a "Minimite" community. It's really interesting.

Interesting book!
I don't own a cell phone.
I HATE cell phones and phones in general!
But, I love Skype!

I've been working for ten hours and you guys call this early? Bunch of bloddy slackers! Sleeping your lives away! I'll bet you haven't even milked the water buffalo or chased away the leopards yet!

Cincibuck, I have to ask: was this children's show =Lucy's Toyshop=?
A childhood memory hangs in the balance...

If there was tree involved and the kids and "Talent" sang, "Hi there Mr. Tree, it's awfully good to see you, Wake up mr. Tree, it's daytime can't you see?" then that's the show. God damn tree was a pain in the ass.

When I went to the Ohio State Fair, I kept looking
for Captain Kangaroo to follow Lucy's Toyshop.
I dare not ask if there was talk about the venerable
captain as well.

Thanks for the detail, Cincibuck...

For me it's up by 4:30, off to run 5 miles. In the office by 645. Today, I'm chained to the desk for paperwork. :(

Nothing like reports with yesterday as the suspoense date, from headquarters three echelons above reason. It's good to be retired.

Good morning BP world!
If this thread sucks it's because I missed a Christmas party and didn't get sick on bad buffet food!
Christmas hurry up and get here because I'm bored with the pre-Christmas hype.
Besides I actually look forward to opening packages.
I just don't like wrapping them! Who does?
Well, other than Ryn.........:tongue2:

It's my last day of work until 3 Jan 07. But, I'm sure I'll be popping in the office before the new year. Damn, enlisted & officer performance reports, awards & decorations! I got to get in some golfing.

 

[iambrutus]
