Dazy we drape a large sheet across ours here and it covers the tube from the sun. No more singed skin

And pee sure isn't the worst thing people 'contribute' in the tubing rivers *YUCK

I wasn't the planner on this thing, just an invitee. We may go again late July, but the tubes get too hot!!

Trout fishing? I didn't know there were fish in that river. And you eat them? Do you know how many tubers pee in that water every year? Eww, gross. :D
www.grtu.org the river gets stocked w/trout every winter several times. i wear neoprene waders so the pee doesnt bother me much. where did you stay at on the river? also www.newbraunfelsrivercam.com is kinda interesting when you get bored.

no i dont eat the fish

Can't really tell you how grave your situation is with your computer... but just in
case, I would back up all the important stuff on CDRs.

When I have trouble with my PCs I just do that then reinstiall XP or whatever
OS you have. You may even be able to run an ASR (Automatic System Recovery)
or whatever the hell it's called. lol.

(I'd listen to Jenkins) ask him

There shouldn't be any need in reinstalling XP or anything. Just disable or Uninstall Watson's.

Your computer problem sounds like my problem, except that I couldn't open anything!!!

We stayed at KL Ranch this year, Gilligan's Island last. I liked KL b/c you got off when the river stopped and you were at your campsite.

RANDOM: We walked ALL OVER Seattle tonight and found no signs of night life whatsoever. The fish market is cool and so far the food is good, but there's not much to do for fun... maybe it'll pick up as the week goes on. And I think that was the longest flight ever.

Started reading "The Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy," and it's hysterical!! Only to chapter 5 or so but highly recommend. And no, I haven't seen the movie.

I could go for a bite of a sandwich... or a BBQ D

17 more days!!!!! D:D

True, on the other hand, my insurance is still jacking with me. They have only given me a supplement for my driver's corner which is only about 30% of the damage.

Those insurance places are seriously a pain in the ***. Keep on top of it Slim. When they figure out you're not going away, they'll get their act together.

Congrats on the dismissal!

I think we're going salsa dancing tonight... not sure where and I don't know how so we'll see how that goes!! :o

Late Friday night. I've got training/seminars right up until I leave, but my nights are free! :D I was personally told by my management to "have a good time." Gotta do what I'm told! :D
