Never figured out the lure of the "status thing" (Although it's talked about here alot) Everytime it's brought up and I take a look and I see my Nomad count goes to a new level, I figure that I must be talking too much, I just looked and I'm "Ultra Nomad" whatever that means..........and in just 5 years!

Hey Doug? What happens after 10?, hope my computer won't explode! :o

Oh, forgot to add.........it also might mean that I'm not using my time as I should :?:

Big numbers are indicative of three things:

1. Need for attention
2. Free time
3. Cold Pacifico on hand

I'd run this into three pages with pictures but, it's a bit early for number 3.
Maybe later.

No. Not now. This lousy weather requires mass quantities of Pacifico.
