I'm sorry. Did you call me?
Oh goody.
OK, so there are still *some* jobs I wouldn't jump at...
If we did it wasn't in English...
You doin' OK?
I thought you prophesied! There are many gifts but the same Lord. ;o)
I'd prophecy but the penalties for gettin' it wrong are too high. No penalties for misinterpreting tongues, as far as I know.
I wouldn't live in this town for all the money in the world.
Well... OK... maybe for *all* of it. But anything short of that and no deal. :-)
It's kinda funny really. They do pay people a definte premium to work in the SF office, 'cuz they have to. But people here that are even making what would be *really* good money elsewhere on the planet live like house-poor paupers.
But when *studio* apartments are $2500 to $3000/mo for really crappy parts of town... and where a $750K house is a "fixer-upper"...
All for the privilege of driving in the worlds' worst traffic.
Beats me. Honestly. It beats me.
I wuz about to ask that myself. Ain't Miss Ruthy 'sposed to be back by now?
Yeah...my brother just moved away from there. He was making good money, but even SHARING a dinky apartment with a couple of guys he knew through church was costing him something like $1500 a month.
My itty-bitty house...he said would have sold for ten times as much in SF. Ten times! That's hard to fathom. He said almost no one can afford to actually own land there.
But it's a pretty area. Too bad we couldn't just evacuate the entire population and start over economically too.
She posted that she was back, said things were a little rough at home, and that's the last we heard, I think.
So I'm fretting.
Uh oh.
Ping to all wayward Hobbit-types. Don't you guys love us any more?
I didn't say anything earlier 'cause I thought Ruthy would be back on by now. She called me this morning (she didn't think Hair would be awake yet). She's still havin' some trouble with her DSL.
And something came up that made her late for work, if she made it at all.
She'll be back when she can.
Glad she called you so's we wouldn't worry too much. Am keeping her in prayer.
'nite folks
We had call back auditions for the Christmas show tonight.
If I get the part I think I'm getting, I will never admit it on FR.
And that's all I'm sayin'.
Lemme guess. Gonna play an elf?
Good night!
Does it involve tights?
Thanks Corin....
I do get up early, and she can call whenever she likes, but I'm sure it was just as good to talk to you anyhow.
Suze: Scythian. Can't you tell from the inflection?
Keptin:
C: is obvious
D: is a partition on C: for HP to put some recovery frap (that I'll probably eventually be glad I had)
E: burn'n'read everything CD-R/DVD+/-R with LightScribe
F: CD-R/DVD player
G: SmartMedia/xD
H: MMC/SD
I: CompactFlash
J: Memory Stick
K: 200GB slave
L: 40GB drive from the old 'puter, formatted and put in a USB enclosure as a mass storage device or thumbdrive in the front port next to the card readers or the onboard memory of my li'l MP3 gadget or digicam.
Corin: you speak Scythian too?
Good, 'cuz I can barely figure it out meself...
