But of course! I can't take another road trip for months, anyway :oops: so, definitely will be here to show you around DC. 8)

Geoclimatologically speaking, Labrador should be more accessible in the summer time anyway. Unless Yggy wants to take his truck across the North Pole, in which case winter time would be better, but may need more skills than the three of us currently can claim. :? So this winter is probably too soon.

Hahahahaha!!! YES!

But don't think you need to detour south to pick me up; I can meet you at some lonesome whistle-stop train station, somewhere along your route.

Depends on how long it takes you to clean whatever it was you spilled (the mind boggles with possibilities) on that load of granite??? :lol:

I hope it goes well, Elorrum!!! Wish I could be there. :| I miss you too, Lucky!

Fishy, I sometimes think that Josef K's life is a model of moral orderliness compared to mine. :? Or yours, for that matter...

Look, all I know is that someone on facebook turned Josef K. in for not having a "real" name. It's been nothing but trouble since then.

Whatever. It's another of my weird, inchoate rebellions that I don't have the charisma to lead and what I'm talking about is so obscure, and I explain it so poorly, that it's just a voice in the wilderness, making no sense.


expect more, many more, in the weeks, months and years to come.

I'll admit it. If I could change my name there, and could make graphics, I'd change my name to Josef K. and have an avatar that said "I am Josef K."

Then I'd get bored and change it to something equally poorly thought out about the Stasi.
FB isn't as bad as the Stasi, but when you get something that's informer driven, it gets ugly.

I guess everyone wandered off. I'll just pour this bag of ice in the cooler and dump a case of Henry's in there for anyone in the mood.

That's what the Hank's is for, and I was just thinking of polishing off the last serving of death my chocolate ice cream. No really, I was just now thinking that would be a good idea.

So I have made up stories in my head about someone who's unavailable emotionally. Care to share? Or refer to a thread if you've already divulged.
Nobody in this bar but us right now. Feel free to grab a beer from the cooler. It will probably still be sort of ambient temp, but that's actually how I prefer them.

O and regarding the temp
I learned in Spain that room temp is a real asset when cooling true heat.

Blowing off costume for first time in a decade. Just not worth the effort this year. I'm celebrating by watching silly horror movies like classic Dracula. Currently watching Woman in Black. Never seen it, looks like a good time.
