Hi All,
<snip>
There's roughly 42 people on this list (Is that number a portent?)
</snip>
Life, The Universe, and Everything Evolt, eh? ... +1!
<snip>
It seems like everybody is "in" for the moment. So...
</snip>
What? At 9:38pm? (Local [center of the universe] Houston time?)
Get a life folks! Nope - this is the day gig! ;-)
Who are you?
Ron Luther - an ornery 43 year old whackadoodle
- former Cleveburg, Ohio metalhead now living in cow country Texas -
the cultural adjustments have been pretty amusing!
- voracious reader, crappy guitar player, bad speller, math wiz, ...
and as my son wrote in his school paper when he was a tad younger ...
"My dad is really wierd - but cool!" ... and proud of it!
What do you do?
for cash?
- develop custom intranet reports for supply chain junk; orders,
inventory, MRP, etc. Mostly using a tool called Brio, but sometimes
outlining the reports in ASP that I don't get to write.
for fun?
- lots of junk; museums, zoos, mountain biking, inline skates, picnics
with my sweetie, playing with the old camera ...
cuz I can't help myself?
- think really really odd things
What do you want to do?
- I'd really like to more frequently and consistently reach that inner
balance where I am so obviously and outrageously happy that I get
complete strangers coming up to me telling me I shouldn't be so happy.
(Been there a few times - like slow dancing around a seafood restaurant
in Annapolis while waiting for our lobster to arrive - it's great fun!)
- Wind up on Page 3 of the Sun.
when I grow up?
- Bah! - If you don't grow up by 35 - you don't have to!
What has been your experience with evolt so far?
- Hmmmm ... extremely favorable - the bill of fare is intriguing and
very wide ranging. The service is exceptional! The helpings are filling
and generous. The ambiance is pleasant - or at least interesting. The
decor could use a little work. ;-)
Do you have a cat?
- I am without animals at the moment. ;-(
Do you kick kittens?
- Sorry - I'm not that coordinated. I'd rather juggle them than kick
them.
Got a URL?
- Why? You like ugly sites? Here are my personal 'train wrecks' ...
- http://www.fangsnclaws.com/
- http://members.evolt.org/ronl/
If you limited yourself to one food for the rest of your life what would
it be?
- I wouldn't. Hmmmmmm ... unless you were talking about 'alternative
uses' for food? <wink, wink, nod, nod> Ahhhhhh! Well then .... in that
case I might have to go with Twinkies. <Oh yeah!> ;-)
Boxers or Thongs?
- Can I just watch lady boxers in thongs? ..... Please?
- Tried both ... don't like boxers.
If you got into a fight with Taylor, would you win?
- Hmmm ... I wouldn't bet a lot of money on it mind you - but I'm
pretty sure I would win - (I mean, really - like - Liz Taylor's pretty
old now isn't she? And - like - she was never really mean or anything -
like Betty Davis, right? ....) - Yeah - I think I could take her!!
