Lane on the West Coast..

LANE!!

RETURN HOME IMMEDIATELY!!!!

Ever since you left, the outdoor temps have been in the 40's and we're expecting a hard frost tonight.

Come home NOW and bring that warm West Coast weather with you!!

The Southeast Speedstah Guys......

Gordon, Lane may be smoking something on the Left Coast. He recently informed Nolan that Steve Lawing had joined a Buddhist sect and moved to India. Actually, he has relocated the shop to China to find some workers.

Ahhh....another Buddhist.

My kinda guy.....

I dunno, Gordon, if it's that cold I may just stay here. Will, Jim, and David wore shorts and sandals today. It's been perfect Speedster weather the whole time.

Blessings to Will, Jim and David, but the EC needs you bro. I'll do the deed, shorts, open-toed shoes, flowered shirt, whatever it takes. Come on home. Your wiener dogs need you!

Yeah....You wouldn't want to see frozen wieners, would you?

10pm - on the water - 38 degrees F

Need we say more??

COME HOME NOW!!

You'll have to do without me for a couple more days. I'll spend tomorrow cloistered in the hotel room working on a report, and I'll be traveling all day Thursday. Will may be joining me for lunch tomorrow so I don't go mad staring at the walls of the hotel (and at my computer screen). Ah, it's a tough life.

I used to write my reports (what few I did) either by the pool (in the shade so I could see the laptop screen) or in at the bar.

It always helped to have a beer handy for those long reports.....

Or a "Blue Moonshine"......

I'm just sayin'..........

WOW, there is a memory jog! I went to a co-op college with General Motors, and at the end of each work section we had to write an extensive report of the operations of the department where we had worked. As the college years rolled by, I noticed a definite correlation between the alcohol consumed while writing and the grade received. It was irrefutable, more alcohol translated into higher grades!

More proof of survival of the fittest. Alcohol kills the weak brain cells, leaving only the stronger cells. Hence you are smarter!

Hmmm... Now that I've had dinner and a couple of glasses of wine, maybe I should rewrite what I did today. Surely the Captain would appreciate the improvement.
