If you need a system, then buy a good desktop. Cheaper, and considerably
more powerful than any notebook.


Yeah, but they're a bitch to drag to classes. Money ain't really an issue,
as I found a gold card (VISA) on the property the other day shootin' at a
deer. All the folks that I told about my find claim it's just a pyrite card
, but I know they're just jealous and want to steal my claim!

Eruieren = A derivative of "erudition". To conclude based on (

profound )
knowledge. The word is common in German, but it is also used in English.


I hate it when mother is right!

If you need a notebook, then get one. My own experiences of such things in
the past, has made me a lot more circumspect and tardy when buying a lot of
stuff. The longer I now think about such things, the more I realise that I
donīt really need many of them. Of course, being poverty stricken also
helps a lot!

You actually caught a gold visa card poaching??? Hope you took its
number!

Your mother may not always be right, but she will always be your mother.

Fornication with dictionaries, however carefully this is initiated, is
unlike to result in elucidation or noesis, and may indeed merely result in
frustration and pain!

True, true, but at least one can always find sympathy there.

Indeed! In a good one you will find more or less everything! Practically a
universal panacea.

Cyli: are you Sedona? I'm seriously considering a year off back home, in
Flag, and if so, maybe we can hook up and do some fishing. I bet if I
brought some tying gear down and helped you tie up something managable that
caught a few fish, you discover why so many fishermen tie their own flies.
I've only been at it for about a year, and now there are a handful of
patterns I use that I will never purchase. I still have to buy some of the
more complex ones, though, and I expect I always will.

Nope. I'm in the winter state. MN. I think I'd love Sedona or at
least the area. Prying my husband out of here, where he loves his
golf course and his golf buddies and his golf job, would be the
killer. Though some of those more easterly semi-southern states look
good, too.

I can understand why people like to do it. It's art or craft. Very
personal art or craft.. Just not my kind of art . I've heard what
it can run in long term costs. Buying new releases of every art
program I've ever owned for the computer every single year probably
wouldn't come near it.

One may also do it for practically nothing. This was once an art in itself.

The following quote is by no means a personal criticism. If you donīt want
to tie flies, then you donīt want to. It just seems appropriate to the
thread, and the original post.

"The fly fisherman who knows nothing of his flies is as great an anachronism
as the painter who knows nothing of his paints.
More, he is a bad man of business".
(J.W. Dunne, "Sunshine and the Dry Fly" 1924)
