Hey, not in SD anymore. Dind't have internet access for my last 4 months there. The library kept kicking me off the internet about the the time I'd catch up with my email. Even that got difficult.
I wound up in CO again. Though not be choice. Was going to Indiana and just stopping to see the kid and totalled my car. So no car no trip anywhere for a while.
I should be around more frequently again.

Welcome back! Missed ya!
I'm delighted to see you will be hanging with us again, though I'd rather it were under different circumstances. Wrecked wheels are a bummer, even if you don't get hurt -- you didn't, did you?
Hell, comes to that, the automobile has become the world's biggest blight on the landscape since the alledged Flood.

Blazer is a GM product. Not Ford. I had a Honda, it was good on gas.
Fortunately no one was hurt, Cait was in the car with me. Said the bruise on her knee actually hurt less than the footprint on her ribcage. (She was kicked while sparring in Tae Kwon Do.) The lady I hit wasn't hurt either.

My bad. Was in SD (moved June 8th or so) was going to go to IN to live and go to school. But my 2 day stop in CO became my stopping place due to an auto accident that totalled my car.
Will be around regularly over the spring and summer, until school starts in fall. Going to start pre-med if I can get in this fall, otherwise will start the classes and keep applying to the program. I've finally decided that cadavers are more interesting than the living. |

I know. My Ford pickup, old enough to vote, runs pretty good -- the Blazer is the pain in the ass. Not impeachment for GM, but to the bastinado with them!

| Ah ok. Understand. I tried selling Fords for a little over a week, car sales ain't for me. I suppose I have this odd expectation that people are reasonable. |

| Howdy, oh fellow skeptic. Sorry to hear of the car deal. Hope you can get back on four wheels soon to continue your med quest. Sounds interesting. |

Will be awhile before I can (a) afford a car or (b) have mine repaired. Need a new radiator and mounting bracket. One fender, headlight assemblies, etc. It'll work if the frame isn't tweeked.
I missed you all too. Didn't like not being able to get on line for so long. |

| Everything is better for me than it was last spring/summer, so the car, while a bummer, isn't as big a deal as it would have been a year ago. I've just learned to take the bus. |
