I can't remember.

But the one I'm going to apply to tomorrow is really cool, and I don't know if I'll work at the wine store if I get this one.

My mom saw the ad in the sun. Star Trib. Looks like it could be really cool. I'm going to drop off the app I picked up tomorrow.

yea, I noticed the workforce center.

They sell regular beads too. Plus all tons of stuff I've been thinking about buying like a sodering iron. And I have been thinking about learning to make stained glass, which they also teach classes of. AND, the ad said $8.50 to 12 bucks an hour, which is more than the wine store. This one could be really cool. But I'm not going to get my hopes up too high.

I lived across 280 in the prospect park area in an apartment the first few years, we lived in the Cities. There are a lot of students in the area,.. but I image an employer could get really tired of dealing with them as employees.

Coffee time.

This morning we have Motor City Blend brewing. It's from a local roaster. OK, despite the overused name.

So this morning I received an e-mail from some e-playan called nevadaguy that struck me as strange. Maby I am paranoid, but it seemed odd. Let me go get it and show you all.

Include this full email (particularly the headers). Please note that the reply address to this email has been set to that of Nevadaguy.

Message sent to you follows
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Could you tell me about how you picked a spot to camp? hope this is not a strange request. Take Care John
John is probably on the up-and-up, but why e-mail? And why no posts? Maybe I'll PM him.

Actually that does not make too much sense.

Ever since my local piss-ant police department (for a township with a population of 20,000) got its own Internet Crimes Division, I've been concerned about over-zealous, half-assed LEOs lurking on this board trying to nail somebody, anybody.

Cripes, nice morning conversation.

Kona anyone? (Note to The Man: It's coffee, you dumbasses!!!)

Hmmmm,

That's really strange. I thought N.Y. was starting to be rather relaxed.

I cant have coffee but I'll have a tea.

Here's what I just PMd nevadaguy:
Good morning, and thanks for thinking that I might have something meaningful to say on the subject of camping. But actually, where to camp really depends on your tolerance for noise, and what day of the week you arrive. Frankly, camp is mostly for sleeping, so I wouldn't worry about it too much, just avoid the far ends of the city where the large-scale sound (read rave) camps are. Two or three streets in from the Esplanade on the east side of the city is good - I think that the dust is less there since the prevailing wind can beat up the west side. Read the survival guide stuff on the main web site but don't worry too much about any of it. Just make sure to keep hydrated. Also, don't pay much attention to all that crap about bringing trinkets and other garbage to "gift." Just paint yourself blue, stick a few feathers up your ass and have a great time.

Hey RG. Goes. Nice work over in the Kamp-A thread. Good to see Iso involved in something constructive, eh?
