All the better to thaw out with.

Well, I'm back in the net access area and it's 6:30 in the morning and
37 below outside. Hey Christine, I might make that 45 below yet! :-) I
feel as if I'm in my old job in the Yukon, bouncing around the
territory consulting in the winter. Some aspects of that are kind of
fun. But I miss a decent net connection.

I hope everyone is well, happy, and *warm* - especially those in the
north part of the northern hemisphere.

Take care!

It's freezing rain here, but tomorrow, well, they forecast something like
10!


Ok a couple of day later :-) like the 18th ( today ) 10pm the 17th
it was 10 degrees, no wind.

Sounds ok....

6:00 am the 18th, alarm clock goes off. 6:03 the neighboring fire dept
goes out on a tractor trailer roll over at the intersection of
Peruville & Groton Rd.

Interesting. My last night in Williams Lake, the fire alarm in the
hotel went off at three in the morning. It was minus thirty seven.
Luckily, it was a false alarm. But sheesh.

Well this intersection is about 400 meters
from my house, we didn't hear a crash. We live near a high traffic
road for Cargil Salt, so the only type of truck out that early in the
AM are salt trucks, either empty, or loaded. This one was loaded.

[snip great story]

I'd do that, if I wasn't already there. :-)

Heh. Yeah. Well, keep the furnace in good repair. I know I do. Now,
over in Wales, I guess not everyone does. But what do they know from
cold, huh?

LOL

Be well.

I know plenty of out of work computer folks but I also know a number
of working computer techs. I'm fairly certain that motivation to work
accounts for at least some of the difference in life situations. There
are a number of universities; the one that I attend, UHCL
http://www.cl.uh.edu , is beginning to offer more web CT classes.

Actually... the summers here are insufferable.

All the better to thaw out with.

Fishing's good. The summer evenings are nice. And after a dozen years
or so, the summer's ok.

And hmm.... write me at my old addy if you have it still and catch me
up on what's going on.


Done
