    no, but that sounds fascinating, intuitive user centric road design?

    The next poster enjoys human behavior studies.

    Yes.

    The next poster has a new, smaller, more efficient computer desk that still houses their three computers! And has wheels!

    No... but that sounds very cool.

    The next poster just gave someone a birthday gift that they loved.

    (Congrats Sam on your grant!)

    No. But I'd like to hear the explanation given by several roads in my area, for just what the heck they think they're doing...

    The next poster is hoping to receive confirmation soon that one of their own photographs is going to be published this fall...

    EDIT: Oops... I didn't hit the last post properly... so, No, no birthday presents swapped lately... and my "Next Poster" comment stands...

    Ha. Having to rely on the "auto" feature of my camera, I would say no.

    The next post has had to endure a week that has tested their resilience.

    Ahem... Well, no, not really. In fact, this has been a pretty unproductive day so far...

    The next poster is going to get a bunch of stuff done after lunch. Really.

    Yes.

    The next poster was at the TALEY THAI, a local Thai restaurant, having lunch on Tuesday. Which was YUMMY!® Anyway, when they came out of the restaurant, they saw this piece of paper taped to their drivers side window.

    And it says, "Pretentious Dweebs Not Allowed To Park Here" and it also says, "The Beatles Suck".

    Um, definitely no, that did not happen to me today...! Wow. I almost wonder if it was someone who knew you / your car, as a joke?
    But sadly, too easy to imagine it was just a jerk. (Did you have Beatles CD's visible in the car?)

    The next poster is contemplating Ethiopian cuisine for dinner tonite...

    No... it's hard for me to contemplate dinner at all with the huge potluck we just had a work.

    The next poster needs a nap.

    Yes, after a day of Microsoft demos, I am near comatose.

    The next poster hates Japanese beetles

    This poster is tuning in to see mention of Ethiopian cuisine and is jealous. Even though I already ate, which answers the "next poster" question.

    The next poster has had an oil change where they forgot to request synthetic and wonders if they should go have the conventional drained and the synthetic put in. Can the next poster tell me if it's necessary? No replies that "Dweebs not allowed to post here".

    This poster thinks you should leave the dino oil in, unless you can reuse it instead of throwing it away.

    The next poster is old enough to have lived through the Sixties, yet young enough that they really do remember it. :)

    Exactly, it wasn't until the mid-70's that things started to get a little hazzy.

    The next poster remembers Chilliwack, both the place and the band.

    Chilliwack? No, not at all. I even Googled them and no recuerdo.


    Next poster likes Red Hot Chili Peppers, the band and the food.

    Not busy now - finally just sitting down to eat at 9:45. I did have a huge disaster earlier involving a 3 second power outage and corrupted excel spreadsheets, but NOW I'm relaxed....

    The next poster should really get off of their butt and set up their web and ftp sites....

    Nope. I'm lucky I can use the Mac and a digital camera.

    Next poster just dropped in to see how the gang is, (Hi Gang - I miss you all)but will continue on summer hiatus.

    (Hyo, we snagged a berth at Rathtrevor Aug 20 -22!! I am so stoked!)
