Hi Gang,
Just wanted to let y'all know we're leaving tomorrow [Thursday] night for a long weekend.
Os has been kind enough to help me out with spam patrol - hopefully she'll be up for a few days of extra duty  Are ya up for it Os?
We'll be back Sunday early afternoon-ish.

I'm on it captain! *salutes* Have a good long weekend!
On a semi-related note: the recent increase in spam from Hotmail and Gmail is normal. If I can find it I'll dig up the discussion about it from Slashdot.

Don't let all that power go to your head, Os. No turning this into a gaming forum while Al is away. 
Have a great weekend, Al. You deserve it!

Hi Gang,
I'm back. We had a great time! Weather was great for the most part. Got to watch a great thunder storm over the lake - very cool!!
I'm working on a set of pictures. When I get them uploaded, I'll post the link.
Thanks Os for Spam Patrol [is that anything like Snow Patrol?]!

Glad to hear you had a good weekend. I LOVE watching thunderstorms over lakes. What lake were you on?
A friend and I were supposed to head up to your neck of the woods for Labor Day weekend, but there was a mix up in the 'reservations.' Was your location some place you would recommend? Must go some place or will be forced to attend sister's baby shower. The horrors!

It could be if she spent the weekend Chasing Cars of spammers away. |

I can do that! My scooter is up for it, if you can somehow get rid of the 115 degree heat.
Glad you had a good time Al! Can't wait to see the pictures.

Thanks for the welcome back! It's great to be back.
OK, I've got some pictures ready for y'all.
The people you'll see here are some of my closest non-cyber friends. I've known the guys since 1980 - we went to tech school together. The girls have come along in the subsequent years. These are the people that kept me sane when I was "sick". Our little group has seen a fair amount health issues - from brain tumors to spinal surgery gone awry leaving permanent damage. They made me laugh when I needed it...something I desperately needed and was a difficult task. They still make me laugh today - thank goodness!! Hopefully I've done the same from them.
Don't miss the infamous GF Knife from Cookie Daze...

Wow! Nice pictures. From goofy (Al the model) to stunning (Tangerine Dream).
Thanks for the virtual vacation.
