Haven't heard from Deb in a long time. I think she's taken her life in a different direction.
It's going to be alright.

Sitting out here in the middle of no place gives me time to think about those who just leave us.

Yeah, I know what you mean. In a lot of ways I'm out in the middle of nowhere too. But it's a different nowhere.

I'll always remember when I first saw it in 2004. I really felt like we were nowhere.

LMAO
Back about 2000 or 01, was talking with a girl from Berkley and she made the comment about how she loved it out on the playa, she could be "alone" if she wanted to be.

And how my idea of being alone, is out on a dirt road someplace 50 or 60 miles or more, from LOL, Nowhere, with a flat and only a 1/4 tank of gas.
thinking "Damit car what did you get me into this time."

Well enough.
Just started raining when I went out to do something.
I could do without the daily monsoons.

How about any drink for 90 degree weather?

It sounds like I would like it.

I like the fruit drink chinotto that is the primary basis for some stronger things, including grenadine, I think.
It has a sweet then sour flavor.

Hi!

Busy day here. Worked on my project in the morning, then a BBQ in the afternoon, more drinks with friends, and later off to a bonfire to cap off the day. How goes it with y'all?

Another 20 points to bringing that up, because for many years I was on side of Frogs in Frog-Mouse war we had with friends and I was called Misaba - which is half my name and half zaba (frog in Czech)...nice one Fishy!!
