Hi Paul:

How do you get to see the high up stuff?  Do they provide fork lift service?

Uh-oh.  I'm allergic to "interesting, unique items".  They follow me home.

Dave's back?!  Great news!

I guess I better plan on staying a full week  Y'know what, forget that.  I'm
gonna call Phil and see if he'll hire me as night watchman. (panel
refinisher?, module-swapper, swabbie?)  I'll work out cheaper in the long
run.  Wonder what I'll have to pay him per week?

Barry

How long
