Can't sleep. That fish food is kinda expensive though isn't it? I'm up late...what about you?” 3:51:22 AM 8/03/04 “I just got home from the road trip a little while ago. Yeah, I wouldn't recommend that type of food for daily use. I was shocked anything was still swimming in the tanks when I got home.” 3:52:30 AM 8/03/04 “Ok, going to collapse now. see yall tomorrow.” 3:53:38 AM 8/03/04 “I only have one loney goldfish. What do you have?” 3:53:56 AM 8/03/04 “Are you guys still up??” 4:10:11 AM 8/03/04 “"Slackin' is cool these days! We all got jobs you know!" Dub Dub, I didn't think you worked??? If you are working then why are your parents still giving you money for gas!!” 6:25:09 AM 8/03/04 Fish “I've got 5 danios and 4 Tetras (forget the exact type) in a 29 gal tank and my daughter has 4 or 5 neon tetras and a couple of molly's in her 10 gal tank. Amazingly almost all survived 6 weeks with zero attention while I was gone - they devoured the live plants though. Oh, there's several snails that helped clean up too.” 11:53:19 AM 8/03/04 “They stopped giving me money so I had to return to work so I just went ahead and got a real job. I might be in Georgia for two weeks starting on the 9th...I wonder if anyone there wants to go backpacking?” 1:54:58 PM 8/03/04 “shep's in GA” 5:28:30 PM 8/03/04 “"I don't think the apartment manager would be too enthused if I built a campfire in the common area, but ya never know...." Roam Around Go ahead...I dares ya... [insert insane laughter here]” 6:08:40 PM 8/03/04 “Awesome. I can't decide if I should bring my gear to GA with me or not. I don't wanna lug it down there and not go anywhere! I'll probably make a post later this week to the GA TTers to see if they wanna do a quick weekend trip.” 6:15:56 PM 8/03/04 “I toted every thing I own (backpacking wise) to NC with me.” 7:20:16 PM 8/03/04 “Are you driving or flying Dub? If your driving - just throw it in the trunk, who knows. Of course when I left FL for NC I had three trips planned and was stopping in the mountains on the way up to boot. I grabbed a bag night on the way home too.” 7:27:17 PM 8/03/04 “I've decided that I-95 SUCKS out LOUD! Roam Around 03:16:23 AM YOU THINK THAT YOURE ALONE IN THESE THOUGHTS roam?? I told scorch that never would i go north of north carolina on I-95 ever again...their roads suck big fat donkey balls up past there... interested to see how the roads may look going to TC4...if i go that is... and yeah im in Atlanta Dub dont know about finding time to head out to the trail but i could definitely make some suggestions...i mean after all these GA mountains should be creampuffs to anyone from further north right??” 8:13:06 PM 8/03/04 “I tried to warn all yous, but did you listen? No, of course not. 95 sucks where the sun don't shine, and in some places (like parts of New Jersey), it ain't even built yet... That being said, 81 is a much better road (and it's complete -- maybe because it doesn't go thru New Jersey). Ahhh, scenic 81...” 8:28:47 PM 8/03/04 “...New Jersey is the land of unfinished freeways... (among other things)” 8:30:35 PM 8/03/04 “81 is good from TN all the way up to Binghamton NY, I can vouch for it that far, beyond that I dunno” 8:55:24 PM 8/03/04 “I was talking about the part of 95 in FL. the longest straightest flatted most boringest road in the world.” 8:56:41 PM 8/03/04 “Dub......let me know when & where you are in GA......” 9:11:03 PM 8/03/04 “Ok, let's talk about long, boring, flat roads, then. How about 80-90 from Cleveland to Chicago -- you actually have to concentrate on not dozing off. and 80 probably gets worse west of Chicago... The entire 450-mile length of the Pennsylvania Turnpike (Pittsburgh to Philadelphia to Scranton) is pretty bad too, as it was originally built as an ultra-long-distance highway, providing an exit only about every 25-30 miles or so...” 9:34:01 PM 8/03/04 “81 is good all the way to Canada -- from Binghamton to Syracuse, right on up the the Thousand Islands on the border of New York and Canada where Lake Ontario drains into the St Lawerence Seaway -- very scenic area; lotsa castles and stuff...” 9:38:07 PM 8/03/04 “I-90 from Albany to Buffalo is pretty boring.” 9:40:35 PM 8/03/04 “I have driven the highways you all speak of; and yes, they are long and boring. However, nothing can compare to the boringness of I-80 through Nebraska.” 9:43:36 PM 8/03/04 “Yeah, that was my runner up... The east-west roads around here are not smash hits; but now that I think of it, 80 is pretty scenic thru much of Pennsylvania, and 17/86 in New York is amazing thru the western Catskills between Binghamton and Liberty.” 9:45:32 PM 8/03/04 “I can imagine. I-90 from Mid Ohio to Illinois was no treat either. Mile after mile of corn fields and flat land.” 9:47:26 PM 8/03/04 “Oh yeah add in and unexpected stop in Gary Indian due to car trouble.” 9:48:52 PM 8/03/04 Other Scenic Freeways in the Northeast “68 in Maryland and West Virginia is absolutely spectacular. And of course we have to mention 87 in New York between Lake George and Plattsburgh -- this would be the traverse thru the Adirondack Park -- possibly the most scenic freeway on the East Coast...” 9:50:58 PM 8/03/04 “The best highway in NY is State Route 73 from exit 30 off of I-87 all the way to Lake Placid. About 25 miles of winding road through the mountains.” 9:52:04 PM 8/03/04 “You guys are boring. Can't you find something better to talk about besides roads?? LOL.” 9:57:08 PM 8/03/04 “Next time any of you have car trouble in Gary, Indiana, give me a call and I will come help you out, keep you out of the 'hood.” 9:57:25 PM 8/03/04 “YOU THINK THAT YOURE ALONE IN THESE THOUGHTS roam?? I told scorch that never would i go north of north carolina on I-95 ever again...their roads suck big fat donkey balls up past there... Drama queen. "...New Jersey is the land of unfinished freeways... (among other things)" Yes, like rude people! LOL” 9:57:38 PM 8/03/04 “My aunt died today : ( Please keep our family in ur prayers.” 10:02:33 PM 8/03/04 “I'm sorry. :(” 10:04:00 PM 8/03/04 “Will do. I'm sorry to hear that, Scorch.” 10:06:48 PM 8/03/04 “thanks. it's okay. i'm sad but not extremely distraught... she's been suffering real bad the past year, so as much as it hurts, it's better off that she passed.” 10:08:39 PM 8/03/04 “sorry to hear Scorch, hope yall are all ok.” 10:12:44 PM 8/03/04 “So does anyone have any cool bp plans for Labor Day weekend?” 10:15:41 PM 8/03/04 “Prob not.. my family has a HUGE L Day party every year where we all get real drunk and loud.” 10:17:10 PM 8/03/04 “"real drunk and loud." I do believe that's half of most great bping trips.” 10:22:11 PM 8/03/04 “"So does anyone have any cool bp plans for Labor Day weekend?" Ruby 10:15:41 PM 08/03/04 ignore this user I'll be hiking through the muck of the Santanoni Range.” 10:22:25 PM 8/03/04 “I need to figure out a way to occupy myself that weekend. If only all the cool places weren't such a drive. Maybe Red River Gorge.” 10:25:27 PM 8/03/04 Georgia “If all goes well then I will fly into Atlanta, Georgia sometime Monday evening next week. I'll be there for ten business days training for the new job I just got. However, there is a chance my paperwork won't be done in time and I'll have to go to a training session in Sept/Oct. But hopefully it will be next week. I'm not sure of the details yet but I believe the training will take place slightly north of Atlanta. So Divinity, I'll be there from Aug 9-20/21 and I'll have the weekend of the 14/15th off work. I get two bags + a carry on so I was thinking of bringing my backpack in one bag and work clothes in another IF someone wanted to get together and go backpacking on that weekend. Of course I'll probably need a pickup, but if that can't happen but a trip can then I'll rent a car.” 10:27:30 PM 8/03/04 Scorch “Prayers are going up for you and your family. Sorry to hear about your loss.” 10:32:15 PM 8/03/04 “slackers!” 11:07:29 PM 8/03/04 “Sorry for your loss, Scorchy...” 11:15:33 PM 8/03/04 “Sorry about your aunt Scorchy, my thoughts and prayers are with you...” 11:19:33 PM 8/03/04 Labor Day... “As much as I would love to go to the Santanoni-fest 2K4, I've already committed Labor Day weekend to my father's house, where his development usually throws a massive party (and everyone gets wasted; and when I say that, I mean wasted -- it's a Slovak party) and everyone's families come up and its the only chance we really have all year to see old friends, etc, etc. So Santanoni, you will have to wait for another weekend... Labor Day is like the one weekend all year that always set in stone for my father's house...” 11:23:56 PM 8/03/04 Doh! “Forgot to turn off the italics...” 11:25:38 PM 8/03/04 Doh! (Again) “That should do it.” 11:26:13 PM 8/03/04 Jump to Page << prev
