    [People] Hollidays are over...

    ... and, just finishing my first day at work I came to the conclusion I didn't miss it a bit.

    Oh well...

    Re: Hollidays are over...

    Don't worry, the biggest holiday of the year is coming and it starts in Sept and goes to Dec. Unless, you're from England. Then, by holidays you might be referring to vacation time. If so, and you didn't miss it, I'm sorry. Everyone needs down time.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".

      I have a long weekend planed this week and then it's all over for me. The only good thing is that the Kids go back to school and won't be constantly bored and looking for "something to do"

        Sorry if I didn't get my message right - What I didn't miss was the work, not the hollidays. And, yes, by "hollidays" I mean vacations.

        Back to english class for me... Doh!

        EDIT: Holidays with double-L! Double-doh!

            If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
            1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
            2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
            3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
            4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
            5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

              "Yeah, I'm going to need you to come in on Sunday too. Mkaay thanks Peter."

              And

              "It's not that I'm lazy. It's I just don't care."

              And

              "I'm going to need you to move down to storage B.."

              great movie

                Looking forward to the weekend. Don't know if anyone else here are PC gamers but, I wish Red Orcestra 2 was out earlier. I would be playing all weekend for sure.

                    I keep saying I'm going to try that game. I keep forgetting or maybe I'm too lazy, but when I get home I just play games I've been playing for a while now.

                        Yeah, I've heard a lot about that game. Looks like a giant Lego/sandbox type of game, from what I've seen on Youtube. I might just have to get that one.

                          Yes, that's exactly the comparison I find the best. As a kid, I loved playing with legos, and this is just like that. I just keep having ideas for new structures and buildings and after finishing one I'm off to another.

                          Of course I had to start with a castle!
