Default OFF TOPIC

Hay, at one time in my work history I drove a L.A. Yellow Cab around L.A.
for 9 hours. The day I quit, the cab in front of me picked up two guys at
the door and his cab was found about 3 hours later with him dead in it from
gun shots. I know they didn't get much, they where his first fares! But that
was the 3rd one in as many weeks. That was it for me, 6 years and I'd had
enough. Company folded within another 2 years anyway. Hay, I'm sure you can
now learn to talk "Freewayese".

Going to shut off the water to the garden soon and lay down and take a nap,
hope to get up about midnight and take my pad outside to see what comes by,
should be good, clear sky and no winds by then.

It's much larger than my old home, but oh man is it hot in riverside!
I think it hit 108 yesterday. I think the electricity bill alone is
gonna put me in the poor house. The skies are much better than Anaheim
that's for sure. The Perseids might be interesting tonight, least I
still have my eyes.

The commute into Orange is a killer. 1 hour in, 1.5 hours back home.
I have been trying to learn Spanish on audio CD while on the commute.
Keeps the mind working.

Take care,
