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?).

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. :smile:

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!"

Coming to theaters this summer. But not really.

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.

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. :biggrin:
Later folks.

Big screenshots maybe?
Anyway -- I'm sorry to hear about that Orpheus, but surely you'll be
able to check in on us like you do when you're on the road for your job?
Take care, and hopefully we'll see you soon!
