Due to reasons beyond my control, today will prolly be my last day for a while. The guy who owns this place had a serious motor cycle accident and needs to sell this place for cash. The long sob story about medical bills and whatnot.

I don't fault him, but I couldn't/can't give him cash so the short of it is, today I am packing whats left into storage and staying with Kin. They have no internet. Not even dial-up

If I can, I will try to establish some sort of a connection but, maybe all I'll have access to is the library once in a while.

Keep everything pinned down till I can get back and, thanx guys.

Oh man, I'm real sorry to hear about that mate! Hope you manage to find a suitable solution soon, and that the family you are staying with aren't too annoying to live with (or should that be vice versa?) <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif"> Best of luck with it all.

Sorry to hear that, but you could visit a local internet cafe every once in a while, it's not like you're moving to the top of the highest mountain in the middle of the jungle (or are you?).

Sorry, to hear it Orph. Really, I am. I know you'll be back!

Andrei, if he's moving anywhere in arkansas, it might be in the middle of a deliverance-style vine-choked forest, on the top of a huge steep hill. Close enough eh?

Yeah well, life is tough.

The guy who owns this, I hear was hurt very badly so I cannot fault his motives but... He live in California and cannot comprehend Arkansas. The land in this area goes for about..$1,500 dollars an acre. And thats fairly steep. He wants $3,500 an acre and we cannot dissuade him. Before the accident he was all in favor of 1,500, but being strapped for cash.. Well it has altered his perceptions.

Sadly, we didn't yet have the buying price on paper yet because he lived so far away. At the time we moved in it was "well theres no hurry, we'll draw things up this spring.

Oh well... I'll just deal.

The good news is, I might be able to get my phone switched to the new location fairly soon..

*crosses fingers*

thanx for the well wishers. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Looks like I need to set out on a quest. All I need now is a spastic rodent and a smart talking dog who transforms into a teapot when someone says "Whistle!"

OK, I'm outta here. Gotta finish before it rains on everything.

Between the rain and that f**king royce fella, my day is almost a total loss.

*sighs*

Sometimes I wish the net had a button that you could press to slap these guys silly. My luck some n00b would be smashing it for me. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

Later folks.
