My thing now when able is more indian ruins, and PPG events.

Mo has 80 acres of pristine Sonoran desert with a huge landing strip for flying enthusiasts. Great place to be in February, note everyone wearing shorts even in the morning hours. Fireworks, live band, good time. And, pilots tend to be pretty sober people.

I highly recommend the lifestyle you are considering, at least trying it anyway.


It's the psychology of it that eventually
gets to a lot of people. When it sinks
in that there is no home to go back to,
that this box you live in that requires
constant housework to keep it from
looking like a slum, that you can't go
to another room to relax or change
your mood, that this cramped space
is now all you have, many people
become very depressed. Not unlike
being in prison. Takes awhile, but
permanent cabin fever will set in.

I think it's perfect for Ed, he should
leave tomorrow.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

This looks like a blast

I was looking for a different one from 2016 when I came across this one, this is the first time I've ever seen this one.

That is me @ 9:14 in brown shorts.

Attorney friend of mine told me a small firm is looking to expand and is interested in bringing me aboard - it would be a 20 minute drive for me rather than a commute to the big city -- however, I suspect it would be a 50% pay decrease to make the move - will find out details this week

Hey it's good to have options. I wish you luck.

The Morning Edition

I walked up to the new Sign In/Sign Out sheet to sign in this morning and noticed that the Protege, in handwriting twice as big as anyone else who signed in, wrote:

"WILL BE WORKING THIS WEEKEND 8:30-7:30 BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY"

I laughed

Then, I arrived in my office to find a MEMO on my chair announcing a mandatory office meeting later today and that "Nobody shall be excused"
We usually get these memos every few weeks and then the Protege tells the Owner he is too busy and the Owner either excuses him from the meeting or cancels it altogether
I wonder what the big meeting is about?

Let me guess:
* No working from home for anyone, no exceptions
* Everyone needs to come in this weekend
