Never been there, but I know of the place. They do great work, and they're about two hours away from me. Utah is a big place.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2004: Well, I Wasn't Expecting That.
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.
Two hours is a lot closer than I imagined. Hmmm. Maybe next summer.
Not till after I get to Michigan, though.
Wait, Michigan? Where is DebetEsse going in Michigan?
Subliminal message: Grand Rapids, Grand Rapids, Grand Rapids...or at least close enough for me to drive to you to visit. I want to meet Buffistas!
Now that I have a newer car I can start planning some road trips --- I know there's Laura and Ginger within driving distance... I'll have to see who else.
Of course anyone who wants to come see me in N FL is more than welcome.
Finally -- my Seekrit Santa present probably won't go out until Monday because I'm a great big slacker.
2004 started out miserably for me. I spent most of the winter in the worst depression I'd had in quite some time.
Then things started looking up. I got a permanent transfer to a division that suits me far better than litigation did. So while I won't say I love my job, I do like it.
Home life has settled down. For the first time in several years, we aren't saving up to move. Or dealing with a move.
Lovely, lovely Caribbean vacation. A whole new part of the world to discover (and I saw a capybara at the St. Maarten Zoo!). And it's warm and sunny in December!
On the downside, there's the political situation. Pfui! let us speak no more of it.
But overall, I'd say it was the best year I've had in a while.
And I'm walking right into this joke, but damn, I get around.
Loves me some SA.
So do a lot of people, apparently.
I rule the world now. I assume that's okay with everyone?
Fine by me. I should come visit you, huh? Maybe after you stop jet-setting to LONDON...
Grand Rapids, Grand Rapids, Grand Rapids...
Huh. I didn't remember that you were in GR. My brain is a sieve. I live about an hour south of you.
Where at? Got any plans for New Years?
I live about an hour south of you.
Around Kalamazoo?
Yeah, beathen, I live thereabouts.
