Well, he is from Lousiana.... ;-)
But he doesn't have much of an accent at all, thankfully. I have trouble with deep Southern accents on men.
Pretty much had to leave to find work in the computer industry.
It's not pot. It's definitely cigarettes.
I've been having some trouble, lately... the place where I work is very dusty and several times in the last few days I've felt like I was about to have my throat clog up. Maybe it's something to do with the new place? It's much less humid here, maybe that's increasing my sensitivity?
That be the cheap stuff.
Good idea.
LOL!! Actually, I just caught the tail-end of the latest forecast and it looks like it'll be a west coast storm...Naples, Tampa, etc.
Which means the east coast will get all of the nasty rain and winds, but we won't be "officially" in a hurricane so we'll be forced to drive and work in that crap.
[ahem] Well... as it would happen, I know what a skidder is. A skidder is a logging thing... it's the big-assed vehicle that drags logs from the cut site up to the place where the loader puts the logs onto the log trucks.
Skidders can be just big D-9 caterpillars with tracks, or sometimes are these big monster articulated wheel jobs. It depends on the location and the needs of the moment. But generally you're talking about something powerful enough to drag two or three sixty foot old-growth logs outta the forest.
This may or may not be your exact problem... but the principle is there...
She woulda knowed that if'n she'd gone to publik skul...
Could be, sis. I'd invest in a bottle of Claritin syrup. 2 teaspoons a day.
If you feel better after a day or so, chances are it's allergies. You've just entered an entirely different region with different allergens than your body had built up resistance to in PA.
Is that a good movie? The Jedis loved War of the Worlds!
Good night!
*ahem*
Good night OT!!
Well... that's what I get for trying to post the same @#$%ing comment for a half hour while %#@$ing Wayport gives me grief about my wireless connection.
Nevermind. :-)
Hi there! How're ya?
You're in Colorado. That's not tobacco smoke. 'nuf said.
I just can't understand it. Same with an Indian accent, I can follow a woman better than a man. It's weird.
And your accent's not very deep, Corin.
I am so hating Wayport tonight. Bastiges.
"So I shut the door. I really, really wish there was a way for smokers and nonsmokers to share a world without inconveniencing each other."
This looks like a job for a box fan.
