We seem to have a conversation about this at least once a year.

No, the old grey Mote, she aint what she used to be. But what thing on the internet is?
I like the easy going way here, I like the people here (most of them, sorry Pelle, I just cannot stand Vikings) and small works fine for me.

I'm a satisfied Mote person.

I'm a satisfied Mote person.

I'm so glad that you are, Mac.

Wonkers...I am unsure what personal info he wants me to mention...I will ask him.

19070. thoughtful - 4/4/2006 12:54:56 PM

PP, do give irv my regards...I still have the lovely throw he gave me and think of him often. I do wish he'd pop back in here...I miss the old gang.

and PP don't be such a stranger...

Arky, I'm glad to read you've given no news about the storms. No news is good news?

You sound very busy, but full is better than dull.

Best regards to you thoughtful, belated happy birthday.

I'm also happy to be popping in and reading from you all.

If there were one thing I would change, it would be myself.

I cannot rewrite my history with you all, and the past gang. At the heart of me I'm the same, but the dyanmic of me has changed. Really settling down, taking life one day at a time with my family is by and far the best teacher.

For me, appreciation runs deep.

One of the things that gets in the way these days is getting ill. Seems every other week Jacob finds another virus at daycare. We all get it. This past six weeks, I was sick four. One was a miserable sinus infection. We've all been well for about ten days now.

My best to you all.

I would be devasted, Macnas, hadn't I known that you don't like Vikings because you don't like Dublin, which last time I visited played up its presumed Viking heritage something awful. In any case, those were Danish Vikings. We Swedes directed our mission civilisatrice towards the east.

Thanks rick

Pelle

Be quiet you horned helmet wearing, woden worshiping long boat marauder from an ice-blasted wasteland.

19075. arkymalarky - 4/4/2006 3:20:27 PM

Hey Rick!

You sound very busy, but full is better than dull.

No it isn't!!! ;-)

After I finish my masters I plan to teach and continue working on rural ed issues (not nearly as much, though) and otherwise do whatever floats my boat.

19076. arkymalarky - 4/4/2006 3:23:43 PM

But you're the guy with your hands full, Rick. Give us an update on Jacob and your daughter! I always think about her when you post because she and Mose are the same age.

I hope everyone manages to stay well a while. Maybe since spring is here it will happen. I seem to recall that goes through a year or two of repeating sick cycles and settles down. You're just all getting exposed to stuff you haven't been. The first year I taught I caught the flu twice--once right before Christmas and the other right before spring break.

19077. arkymalarky - 4/4/2006 3:25:34 PM

I absolutely agree with Mac about the Mote--except the Viking part! ;-)

As Carly Simon said, these are the good old days.

19078. arkymalarky - 4/4/2006 3:27:20 PM

Oh, and the storms hit the northeast corner of the state pretty badly. Because of our strong state-wide school network I know they're not doing well in Marmaduke because of the damage, but they were very lucky compared to Tennessee and others.

19079. PelleNilsson - 4/4/2006 3:53:47 PM

Macnas -- beware of the ravens, beware of the one-eyed fellow in the grey cloak. Tremble.

19080. Magoseph - 4/4/2006 4:08:32 PM

Who came to get Flexy this morning at 8? My gosh, his loving daughter and her husband , but I wish they had taken his dog too, but that's too much to expect. I am going to make some changes around here he won't like, but will have to accept.

19081. Macnas - 4/4/2006 4:45:20 PM

You've been at the Absolut again, haven't you Pelle?

19082. Magoseph - 4/4/2006 4:50:23 PM

Hahaha, I knew you were kidding him, Mac.

19083. arkymalarky - 4/4/2006 4:55:57 PM

I think it's renewed collaboration with Uz. That Uz is a bad influence.

19084. PelleNilsson - 4/4/2006 5:14:33 PM

No Absolut, I don't drink the stuff. But I have a naturally warped mind. And I'm proud of it.

19085. Ms. No - 4/4/2006 8:26:51 PM

It's the hats.

19086. arkymalarky - 4/4/2006 8:32:41 PM

At least he doesn't wear a satellite dish on his head.
