Got my projects copied to the Powerbook, and can recharge that twice from the UPS battery if I need to.

Or maybe when the electricity goes out, I'll just plug in the modem and hang around DU instead of working. Hey, everyone else gets to take a break when the electricity goes off!

1. I know, right?
It's pretty crazy out there, had a wild drive down this morning... Maybe you should take a long lunch at Illiano's and have some garlic knots... yummay!! :bounce:

2. Yeah, but then I'd have to drive over the bridge.
Wonder if I'd make it, or go soaring?

Hey, maybe I should take my BIKE over the bridge...

3. LOL, don't you *dare* bike over that bridge...
We'd like you around for longer, thanks! :hug:

I'm doing ok, busy, as usual. School started up again yesterday. Whee! Otherwise, not much new and exciting. I'm ready for spring already. Sigh.

5. Gee, I'm glad I live in California!
All WE have to worry about are earthquakes, mudslides after torrential rains, and like that!

Good to see you today, my dear Redstone...... :loveya: :hug:

9. Whereabouts are you? We're on the shoreline at the end
the Connecticut River.

Not too many trees here are down yet, but if this stuff freezes overnight, they'll be exploding.

8. Jee-zuz! First the wind, then the rain, and now the temp has dropped
fifteen degrees in 45 minutes!

I don't generally complain about the weather, but this is utter misery.
