Paula, I couldn't even begin to guess on the alligator/croc thing. At least not educated. A layman's guess would be that the first shot is a freshwater croc and the 2nd an alligator. But without seeing them both head on, I've got no idea.

Looks to me like the one in 159 has a definately slimmer nose than the other. :confused: ahhh well, we'll ask Bobert when he returns. :) Thanks, Lisa!

Wool, I just want to know...what did you do to Diane to get her to call you a Monkey (or was that Tracy?) grandpa and a dude taking a leak on a wall? :lol::lol: Seems like you are batting a thou with the ladies over there :lol:


and I'm loving your EO meetup shots! Wondering when Jon is going to contribute...

Had to make an assault on the taxes, and discovered that we had no idea what happened to the final file from last years', and only the 1040 printed out. So - recreating 2007 form from intermediate saves.

You should come down first....we have some sights here too. Plus we might be able to get Jennifer and Jamie to come play.

July would be good - much more pleasant weather there than in DC!

The whole process still sucks though. I want a list of phrases i can't use. Sort of like Carlin's list. We are a very diverse company with folks from all over the planet. There is no way a person can be sensitive to everyone's sensibilities. There has to be a standard.

I agree!!!

We bag, seal and pack the combs for a plastics company in a neighboring town, we get paid to do this work. Sometimes we bag toothbrush holders or soap dishes, sometimes we make little ditty bags with a few things in them, sometimes we do the Goodie comb sets you see in stores. The president and founder of the comb company was an ardent supporter of the Center and basically guaranteed us work ad infinitum. It is great as something to ground and settle my guys in between activities and it brings in a little bit of money.

That is such a kewl thing for them to do! and the little bit of extra $$ is a bonus!

I am a bit bummed, after taking in my computer to get the hard drive wiped out and reloaded, it seems that all my personal documents (the ones on C: drive) never backed up properly. There was an issue with many of my programs working properly. The last backup I have is 9 months old :shock: :(. I had copied my C: drive to back it up before taking my PC in to the shop, and everything BUT 'My Documents' backed up. Fortunately though, it is just some personal files, as all my photos and work files were stored on another drive, and I also have a backup of all these files.

Oh well, it could be worse.

sorry to hear this... I have nightmares about something like that if I ever need to take my puter in.

Not just a "guy" thing. I LOVED that show... wasn't just because I thought MacGuyver was dreamy. :lol:

Bunches and bunches of nice photos which I've been rushing to catch up on.

I was going to try this but given thay my first question is Who the heck is MacGuiver, I do not think I will do too well.

What? Come on man...I grew up in the same country as you. We had MacGuiver, Magnum, Airwolf, Knight Rider, A-Team, Fall Guy, The Man from U.N.C.L.E....all the superb cult 80s shows on TV...

unless you're really starting to show your age ;)

I know Magnum, Night Rider, A-Team, Fall Guy and The man from UNCLE but not MacGuyver and Fall Guy. Remember I spent a significant amount of time defending western Europe and we didn't have telly in the trenches :-)
