I can't stop laughing! Greg, you have a wonderful sense of humor. I like it. Bad boy promo. :wink: Computer security flew out the door but the network is secure. I can't stop laughing! I bet you're a good dancer. (I love to dance.) I think I know where you are but best to keep it a secret. Have fun and keep up the good work here and abroad.

Smiles across the waves embracing the day ~~~

...it will be good to get back to the mainland. Never thought I'd say that.
The sunburn must be really bad. I guess when you were riding your motorcycle in the suns of silicon valley, your leathers protected you too well and your skin was like a newborns? :devil:

Hope you heal soon.

Y'all have weirdly gone quiet. Did you survive your trip? Are you home now? Are you still consuming little umbrella decorated beverages?

Kind of creepy quiet. Could they all be hung-over?

Everyone should be home by now except for Greg and MIH. Not sure about their schedules.

All those hours of west-to-east time change...MAJOR jet-lag! I could take a number of time-zones east-to-west with no problems, but any more than 2 in the opposite direction would lag me hard. Quite surprising, since I worked rotating shifts for 10 years, but it got me every time.

Yep, I'm back. I got back late yesterday, and am trying to prop my eyes open at work today. Staring out the window at the gloomy, rainy weather isn't helping me feel good about being back home. I wish I could have made this a longer vacation.

Good to have you back Moonbear :smile:

That may be the only good thing about not being able to go; I don't have to deal with post-vacation depression.

Those of us who didn't get to go anywhere are trying, really, really hard to work up some sympathy for you. Really, really.

I have a code in my node, does that help? Honestly, my immune system is pretty good (because of my part-time work with sickies), but I guess the dry air and a couple hundred random folks on planes did me in. First cold in a couple of years.

Did I win the prize? :redface: (hey, I found the sunburn smiley!)

Aww...thanks for trying at least. :biggrin: I had to take a nap after work today, I was so tired. But, of course I wasn't tired enough to STAY asleep, so now I'll probably be up half the night. I used to adjust to time changes and crazy schedules pretty quickly, but in the past couple of years, jet lag just kills me.

He was severely redshifted. Not surprising, since he was moving away from us. :-p

If I wasn't embarassed and in pain, this would be funny. I predict both the code and the superficial burn will be much better tomorrow. G'night folks.
 
  • #107
I'm so glad I didn't get burned. I just came home and I think I'm going to jump in my bed and get some sleep.

Glad every one is home safe and sound. Now we'll be expecting some details.

It sounds more and more intriguing... Is there somewhere a queue for a wannabe mentors? Or a list to put my name on? Preferably sorted alphabetically? You know, Europen time zone and Other Sciences look undermanned :wink:
