How's life treating you folks?
I had a good day except for this splitting headache which will soon subside after I relax in my 68 F living room.

Good Thread man. Careful or Green Peace will be kicking in your door...

My day was ok considering I have a huge project deadline looming and the sys admin was at my door this AM telling me about a server failure...thank the Thread for procedures, backups and the fact that everyone actually followed procedure.

Got a great shot from the business end of a B-17G. I flew on it at the Lost Nation Airshow in OH. That was a thrill!

Thanks for the image. What an amazing ride that would be...could you just "feel" the flak going off around you?

It's funny. The top gunner image reminds me of a very vivid dream I had about 3 months ago...I was top gunner on a B17 in the pacific...only things did not go well

....D#$@ zero bonus.

Good dreams, even if there is a Zero bonus...

Not one of Zimmerman's best. How about:

I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive as you or me.
Tearing through these quarters in
The utmost misery

With a blanket underneath his arm
And a coat of solid gold,
Searching for the very souls
Whom already have been sold.

Or, how about Randy Newman:

Last night I had a dream.
You were in it...

I dreamed about a ghost...

Everybody scared me.
You scared me the most.
