My hubby is an environmental monitoring technician. He analyzes storm water for pollution. He just has his bachelor's degree, and is working on his Environmental Science masters. He usually only takes one class at a time, because it's so hard on the rest of us. But now the boys are getting older and easier to care for alone, I might suggest he take 2 classes...get this over with!

He made a 97 on his last test. Environmental Geology.

I have no trouble getting my vision translated... but performed. The little ones were funny... they knew something wasn't right, they just didn't know what. When the older ones forgot 6 pages, I could feed a line to an actor, pick up the 6 pages, then fast forward.

Again, the main thing is not knowing their lines. This play is a farce... and that means there is timing. When one actor doesn't know, it skips or worse drags... like a tape in a tape player... you know it is dragging and it upsets your rhythm. Same thing with a play. The audience knows it is dragging... and it drags because not only do you have to feed lines, but you have to convince the actor on stage it really is their line so any momentum is lost has to be rebuilt then is lost again.

In Act Two, both classes performed it well. The teen agers were nearly flawless.

Maybe it was just nerves.

Silly hobbits! I missed because I'm trying to study math here. You know you're both going to hurt yourselves, playing that game!

Well, we're not using sticks so we shouldn't be poking any eyes out. ;^)

I am in Palm Bay, which is the next town south of Melbourne. On the map I saw on Mapquest it looks like I'll be heading through your part of the woods on 5/19 when I go to Pensacole for a week

No wonder your weather is so much like mine!! It is nearly impossible to go from the east central or southern part of Florida to Tallahasse or parts west without going thru Ocala. Are you familiar with the route, or do you want pointers. I bet the fastest way is west to the Ronald Reagan Turnpike, north to I-75, and up to I-10. The short cut is to get off I-75 at Ocala, go northwest on US27 to US 19, then north towards Tallahassee, getting on I-10 EAST of Tallahassee. Saves about 50 miles off of the I-75 to I-10 route.

Maybe we can share a pint (of coffee, with you driving), if you want to take a break in 'The Kingdom of the Sun'. That would be just over two hours from Melbourne, I think.

probably be up near you around 2:30 - 3:00pm.

Look forward to seeing you the time sounds great, it is possible that I may develop a scheduling conflict, but this isn't likely, would you like me to Freepmail you my phone number and/or email address?

I've been on iron now for about a month, so maybe it's doing some good!

EAT MORE STEAK!! I also like the steak juice (BLOOD for you squeamish types -- after your adventure with the rabbit I know you aren't squeamish). Your mother sounds like she has her head on straight, next time bill your doctor for your time. You are in my prayers -- good luck.

Ok, let's set it up. Go ahead and Freepmail me your phone and email, I will do the same, and I will give you a call as the time gets closer so we can solidify our plans.

It will be nice to break up the trip to have a pint of coffee with a friend. ;^)

Maybe it's the sword.

Any psychologist can tell you the signifigance of a sword, in terms of Freudian analysis. (Ducks to avoid the thrown pints).
