Don't forget that all the major disasters happen at night when people aren't really with it.

I have been around the States and Texus...........but Indy is just so close and all the race tracks are central to me.

I liked Texus, and armidillos....I think I hit a few on my way to ElPaso.....sorry bout that.

Peppy, I'm doing about the same kind of high tech confidential research here at work. I'm trying to figure out if I want to go with Tri-tronics, Innotek, or DT systems shock collar equipment. I'm also studying a county road map of a new area north of me a bit and comparing it to an aerial photo to see what type of quail hunting ground I might be able to come up with, problem is there are too darn many houses gong up on three to five acre parcels. AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!

Not me.......I like the seasonal weather here in S/C Texas much more. Spring weather starts late Febuary with flowers and green trees early March. Winter temps start mid-December thru late January. Winter temps being lows in the mid to low 30's for a couple weeks.
I miss snow skiiing.......and sometimes snow/ice driving........but the long pretty summers make up for the snow and 4 months of dreary weather.
Now friends and family......thats something that cant be better'd.

Good morning Taz.....headin to work on Sunday morning? And they talk all nice about the USPS doing their job. I dont thin kyou guys ever stop.

Maxium, you hit all those nasty little mean critters you want. They smell bad, and carry Leprosy(sp). Yuk!

Shock Collar equipment......wow, your serious about staying up late. You are one devoted FTE user willing to use shock therapy to stay online.

Hey Taz, if you read Peppy's post above you could ship some of your coffee right now for next day delivery and it wold get here like right now, but you wold have to ship it tommorrow which is yesterday or something, all I know is I could go for a cup of coffee but I forgot to replenish my suppy here and I can't leave this area, and if I called the campus police they'd laugh at me. If you would just go ship it in an hour I'd get it 10 minutes ago and already having to pee by now. I knew you UPS guys were good at your job.
