I feel like crap - but do i get time off? not really, my hour off is quickly approaching an end and back to the kids I go... well, at least it's bedtime.” 11:21:52 PM 7/15/04 “bedtime very soon for me. this full time working stuff has got to go. every other time i worked full time i wasn't working my ass off... i guess i should say this career #&%!$ has got to go. HOI - good luck getting back to bed, try some benadryl or nyquil!!!” 11:25:09 PM 7/15/04 “not explode but I suspect that there was some possibility of gun shots in a worst case and that is why I was asked to leave for a while” 11:25:59 PM 7/15/04 “yikes” 11:26:19 PM 7/15/04 “HOI was the 13000th poster!” 11:27:17 PM 7/15/04 “well dang - and I wasn't even trying” 11:28:51 PM 7/15/04 “I know what you mean about work Scorch I can't wait until the next time the economy goes in the tank - its called a SERO - special early retirement option. I am now 100% qualified for a SERO but knowing the f'ing company I work for they will hang on to me until it becomes my option in another 5 years.” 11:37:34 PM 7/15/04 “i'm ready to retire” 12:11:19 AM 7/16/04 “Me to Scorch, I only have 22 yrs 8 months 12 days 14 hours and 32 sec left.....Then I'll be to dang old to pick up a backpack...some things just dont seem right!!” 12:16:37 AM 7/16/04 “Scorch,Dub,Roam,Any body Home? Looks like Im all alone, where has everyone gone? .................................” 12:40:19 AM 7/17/04 “a single lonely post... how sad” 11:23:28 AM 7/17/04 “I'm here, but I think even slowroller has left. I'm outta here too.” 4:42:12 PM 7/17/04 “Yeah, its kinda sad...looks like im solo tonight.” 11:55:50 PM 7/17/04 “only 5 posts since we've been gone? man, you guys are the biggest slackers ever. and not a single post from dub who was supposed to keep this dang thread alive. and you call yourselves nightcrawlers. (hangs head in shame). well the trip was awesome. me, mapleleaf, lz, and phantom soul got yelled at by the park rangers while we were on our way to go skinny dipping. so no nude bathing took place at this trip : (” 11:05:16 AM 7/18/04 “but i sure am a firefly.” 11:05:36 AM 7/18/04 “Hey! 11:55pm,is not bad,for a wanna be nightcrawler.........” 3:43:25 PM 7/18/04 “I know i cant hang with the big boys&girls yet, but comon give a guy a break...” 3:45:40 PM 7/18/04 “wait.. who are you?” 4:09:41 PM 7/18/04 “Hey, at least you were posting.... At Night! LOL” 4:11:02 PM 7/18/04 “tilty poopoohead” 4:24:18 PM 7/18/04 “Ya can't crawl all day and all night too! Somethin's gotta give -- LOL” 4:46:01 PM 7/18/04 “Dub has been gone since Thursday...never said I'd keep the thread alive.” 4:54:52 PM 7/18/04 “ok dub” 4:58:52 PM 7/18/04 “Kinda hard to post from the woods...although it wouldn't surprise me if those bathrooms at the campsite had a Wireless Internet hotspot, given all the other amenities they offered...” 5:28:53 PM 7/18/04 “ok, so who has that spreadsheet on weights? How much can a laptop weigh before it's too heavy for a pack?” 7:43:40 PM 7/18/04 “Scorch, you dont remember me? ohh Im hurt!!” 8:53:23 PM 7/18/04 “nope.... gimme a hint?” 9:45:02 PM 7/18/04 “I'm just givin ya a hard time Scorch, we have never met. Actually I am the new guy round here, dang I hate bein the new guy...I introduced myself about a week ago, that went over like a lead balloon… lol. So I just started actin like I been around here all along, guess I got caught huh,,anyways just tryin to get to know some of yas.I plan on being at tc4 so maybe I’ll get to meet most of ya'll then...” 10:26:11 PM 7/18/04 “I told you guys I was gonna be gone this weekend that I had conflicting plans with Ithaca...if only it could have been a week earlier or a week later [sigh]. Oh well, is Ithaca 2 planned? I'd like to go next year if one is planned or in the works. Hope you guys had fun!” 12:56:06 AM 7/19/04 “actually Dub, we were discussing going back up there again, it really is a cool place. Pennsy and I both, and NJ Packer too, oh and Wounded Knee all picked up trail guides to the Finger Lakes region as well. The EMS up there had the BEST deal on a trail guide/map set I'ver seen - 8 bucks! So, yes a plan is in the works.” 7:16:10 AM 7/19/04 “i'd like to go back up there as well and do some real hiking since i had a bum leg this time and only did that 3/4 of a mile to see the 215 foot waterfall that begins with a T (i can't spell the name).” 7:30:23 AM 7/19/04 Taughannock “and it's pronounced (according to a Ranger) Ta gan uk” 7:32:33 AM 7/19/04 “that's right” 7:33:56 AM 7/19/04 “SR, hope to see you at tc4 then!” 7:34:09 AM 7/19/04 “Where is everyone tonight?” 9:43:18 PM 7/19/04 knock knock... “where y'all at?” 9:45:05 PM 7/19/04 “I don't know. Maybe they're having a party and we weren't invited.” 9:50:35 PM 7/19/04 “settling my new parrot into her new home” 9:55:46 PM 7/19/04 “Another one.” 10:06:17 PM 7/19/04 “yup, like her?   ”11:33:11 PM 7/19/04 “"and it's pronounced (according to a Ranger) Ta gan uk" Roam Around See Roam, you are learning New York-ese. And you thought we all talked funny...” 12:21:07 AM 7/20/04 “Birds are evil. I'm back in WV y'all, sup?” 12:23:59 AM 7/20/04 “Everyone is posting their Finger Lakes (Ithaca) Pictures; the Webshots servers are on their knees... Roam, since you all bought out the FLT guides at EMS, I've ordered mine thru the Finger Lakes Trail Conference. I didn't know there was backpacking in western NY, but I'm so up for going back up there...” 12:24:34 AM 7/20/04 “Actually, the FLT is a 500+ mile trail that connects the NY Long Path in the Catskills to Alleghany State Park in far western NY. Parts of it are being used for the North Country National Scenic Trail.” 12:37:26 AM 7/20/04 “Dub, next year's "East Coast TT gathering" is rumored to be taking place in West Virginia, pending we can find a place that can meet (tolerate) our demands. I think Geobeet is looking into details, so you may want to contact him if you're interested in helping or have any ideas. We had about 30 board members on this trip, plus many brought family with them. It worked out really well, and if we move the trip south next year, to like, say, West Virginia, many more people may show up -- especially after the success of this year's trip...” 12:49:29 AM 7/20/04 “Well, I have been to every state park in WV sometime throughout my life, many when I was a kid. I'll look through some old pictures and see what I can find for a location. I'm assuming you guys want some good hiking and a good place to party. Many of the parks in WV have a "group" site that can accomadate a ton of people.” 12:58:36 AM 7/20/04 “And one that can tolerate the noise level of conversations between say about 40 people or so. The Treman Rangers were pretty cool about it, be we still didn't get by without visit. The centralized "Party Central" site was a hit with them though, as they liked the idea that we isolated the group hangout to the middle of our sites, lessening our impact on other campers.” 1:02:32 AM 7/20/04 “Also, good local hiking is always a plus with me, but you may want to consider other summer car camping ops as well -- a good swimming hole, maybe a decent size town nearby (Ithaca was about 3 miles up the local hiway and is about the size of Clarksburg, maybe a bit smaller)...” 1:07:50 AM 7/20/04 “That's awesome, where can I find the rangers visit in the TR?” 1:08:48 AM 7/20/04 Jump to Page << prev
