Yeah, if BushCo steals the election again this time Canada sounds
like a good option for me too. And Ireland, I've always been fond
of Ireland.



I've already looked into Canada. Didn't score high enough. Didn't
speak French well enough and for some reason they seem to have enough
semi-skilled factory workers already. YMMV, in fact I'm sure it would.
I guess my only other option is to stock up on Kalishnikovs and banana
clips. At least they're legal now.

Hm.....you going to be carrying any of those this weekend?

I got your email and was going to respond the same way, but I got to
thinking that would be pretty gauche.

I won't be able to make it this time around. I'd completely forgotten about
the Avalanche event and made other plans. For what it's worth, I wouldn't
have been able to make it anyway.......what with jail and hospital visits.

on the bright side, there's kayaking and cooking indian.

many
people already. In the early 80s I could spend 4 days floating and never

see
another soul, but not any more.


So, what kind of natives *do* you catch in the Meadowlands?

/daytripper (wait - is one of them named "Hoffa"? ;-)


I didn't say it was in New Jersey - unfortunately I have to travel, but it's
worth it when I can get there.

Indian cooking is big around here, several restaurants over by the Intel
nerd farm.

That sounds yummy, but cannibalism has been illegal in my state ever
since Alferd Packer gave it such a bad name and screwed it up for everybody
else.
