I finally agreed to see the ex-gf over the weekend.  That was interesting.  After we split she really went off the deep end, IMO.  Quit her job, kind of dropped out of society, but it looks like it did her some good.  She looked happier and especially more confident than I've ever seen her.  I think it was the case of a square peg trying to fit into a round hole...was very glad to see that she found her own little square hole portion of the world to live in...which was Boulder btw

Sorry it took me a minute to respond, I had to put down my granola bowl.

Denver has more total, but Boulder has a higher per capita count. Denver actually has a more diverse group of Granola-munching loonies.

How are things going T?

Need some img]http://bestsmileys.com/coffee/3.gif[/img] with an extra shot of ZOING!(TM) to get me through. 

Edit: The fact that a Mk 14 torpedo actually exploded into a Martian AK on the 3/6/42 turn yesterday helps, too.

I'm dying here today. Can't stay awake. The optempo has gone way down. All we have "deployed" are 6 water buffalos to a tiny county here that still doesn't have power or water. Not really much to track or that can go wrong. I'm leaving early today just because I can. What can they do? Move me somewhere else?

Uh, that's not what I meant. Lots of yard work this weekend. That part came this morning.......

Maybe that's why I'm so tired.

Greeley Colorado??? I'm surprised (pleasantly) you're aware of Greeley. It's actually known as more of a middle America town. Greeley was once awarded a prize as being the most American city.

In situations like this I prefer survival of the fittest....time to throw another intern under the bus.

Maybe you need to learn how to "multi-task"

The latest word is that things are looking good into the foreseeable future. My prediction is that the roller coaster ride will continue until the track ends...abruptly.

Hmm...I must have it confused with a different town. The wife has attempted valiantly to bring me up to speed on Colorado "culture".
