I *love* CBs. When I was growing up, we didn't have phones on the island in Canada yet, and we were on the CB all the time. Then they put up a cell tower in Bruce Mines, and now nobody uses them any more. So sad!
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My DH is KG6PCM, but he uses it only for hang gliding -- it's the flying to which he's addicted.

As an electronics technician, it's kind of nice to have because it adds a layer of proficiency on your resume. There are more in-depth non-amateur radio FCC licenses that are better to have, sometimes necessary, but every little bit helps.

Okay, which one of you has a working teleporter, and why aren't you sharing it with the rest of us. In the past two weeks at work, I have done double-takes because I could have sworn I saw MM, Sean, and DX. Today it was Cass.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, that is so naive to thing someone's using a teleporter. It's much more likely that in the future, MM, Sean, and DX are traveling back in time just to confuse you.

Ooh, ooh! I saw Cass in Chicago yesterday. And AmyLiz the day before that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Hello. I am back from Italy and England. Italy has lots of food and hills. England has the Tate Modern, which has an exhibition with giant five-story slides. Also, I woke up at 4AM.

Because books.
And AmyLiz the day before that.

I was never there, I tell you.

Now tagless for your comfort.
"Addicts" showed signs of compulsive internet use, habitually checking e-mail, websites and chat rooms.
DH and I have had this discussion. I tend to think the 'net is more of a compulsion than an addiciton with me. But sometimes I think I'm a hardcore addict. He doesn't think so, though. He has a co-worker whose wife was really a 'net addict. She'd spend something like 16 hours a day online, ignore her two kids and let the entire house go. She left her husband and kids to marry someone she met in a chatroom.
So it could always be worse. But I was sweating this morning before Liv woke up when I do my usual b.org check and it was down.
