Kids let this be a lesson to you about what hardwork and dedication to your employer can get you.

It is an absolutely "Chamber of Commerce" day outside. Mid 70's a cloud here and there and okay the wind has started to pick up

3. Richmond Va.
We are going to get it right up the poopshoot.

It looks like this thing is coming ashore and is going to ride I95 straight North.

Of course I hope that things go well along the shoreline.

9. Thank you Ruth Ann - I've got a Quazi off day tomorrow
Edited on Wed Sep-17-03 03:56 PM by LynneSin
Unfortunately we're a 24x7 Operation. Our night shift crew has been asked to bring sleeping bags and extra food. And I'm stuck on-call since I'm less than 2 miles from work and I may be the one who has to come in and replace them if things start to calm down. But when you're using your credit card tomorrow to shop for online porn and Bush action dolls you can thank us to make sure it goes through!!

Nothing like conference calls from home - dial-in and go back to sleep!

BTW - Wilmington Delaware here
