    ^Oh! EeriepaD, that was an excellent 2 minutes!!! But, I'm sure you hear that all the time...

    My new government job start day approaches, however, the kid's spring soccer training schedule conflicts. So I guess that's that.

    I'm not working a lot of hours these days, but I subscribe to Neil Young's notion of, "I'll retire when I die."  So I keep plodding along with my book business through Biblio.com and run my little one-man vinyl business through our local used bookstore. 
    And since our dishwasher broke down a few years ago, I became head dish washer and part-time cook around here.

    I always think of Sherman Alexie when I hear a good Indian joke like that.  He's got a bunch of them.  :lol:

    I'm a university administrator. I like it... it's nice to spend my days in an atmosphere of learning and open-mindedness and equity and eccentricity and youth and all that good stuff. I made a good choice when I settled on my career.

    Man, if I had a nickelback for every time I heard that. Maybe this isn't the place for me!

    My company may have done it but it was before i was hired.  97 I was building one in Cali.  That was most likely done earlier.

    Very cool.  I used to deal w the mechanical subs when we made the precast cells.  We used to joke about the cable in the cells.  Some of the workers would complain that they didn't have cable but the inmates do lol!!!
