Did you ever make it to Georgetown area?

Once or twice.

Only remember one trip back, though.

I am not sure I know what everyone does...

I am a realtor, as most of you know...

Any students?

I am, for about another 45 minutes.

I don't think my religion has a church, much less priests.

I'm a deist - I think most lapsed catholics head that way if they don't switch to outright agnostic.

Ah, so you don't worship and fear the "woot gods," eh?

I got "k-lined" once...about 9 years ago.

Well, you could put it that way. I go to school online, and my very last class ends at midnight, local time. Or, about 39 minutes from now. It's been a really fast two years, but I will unofficially be done with my MBA as of tonight.


Assuming I finish my paper, that is.

I've been to all the states cept for alaska and Hawaii.

Never been out of the country.

Nice. So, you are like an Access and Excel master, huh?

Wait - I just remembered, when I was 5 years old My grandparents took me to mexico.

Strange - I don't have a passport.

Nemuro, Japan

Wow! That is impressive! Over how many years did you accomplish this? And was it like a "road trip?"

Are you Xenophobic?

Not as often as I would like, but now that I'm done with school (again), I'd like to get out a bit more. I've been to DC many times, though, starting in high school for the National Youth Leadership Forum on Law and the Constitution. The funniest thing happened the last time I was in DC, too. I was looking for a particular Indian restaurant I went to once (which I didn't find, btw), and ran into a bunch of kids that were attending that forum. Odd, huh?

Since then, I've been back as a tourist a few times, once to visit my fiance (now, wife) who was working at NIH, and once for a Criminal Justice conference.

You don't need a passport to visit mexico until sometime in 2006.

Back then, you only needed your birth certificate.

You should get a passport and get shaking on some of that international travel.

I've taken courses specifically on those programs, but they can get pretty involved, and I don't use Access very often, so I'd have to say no.

Oooh, Japan, wouldn't it be great to go there...and stay in that fancy hotel that is practically automated?

Dunno - I feel more of a need to buy an RV, and just tour the United States.

If I ever hit the lottery, that's what I'll be doing.

You need to make time for these things in life...life can pass so quickly.

It is weird that like minded people would end up in the same restaurants...guess you have similar "tastes" in other things as well (bad pun, I know.)

What is NIH?

Good idea. No permanent address for all of your "relatives" to come out of the woodwork and bug you at.

Math and I don't mix. I used to use these very complex spreadsheets that linked everywhere...and if you messed up in anyway...you were screwed trying to figure out what happened in the formula.

You know what I hate about RVs? They all have a cheesy exterior...those stripes...the interiors have gotten so much better, but generally, they sit in peoples driveways, look dated and rust away.

That's why I prefer tables and SQL

the data is stored, and all you have to do is manipulate the relaitionship.

There's one that looks like a futuristic military vehicle, that has a fireplace and room for two motorcycles or a mini in the back of the RV - It sells for a cool quarter of a million dollars.

Whoa! I learned basic and cobol on a Mac in HS. No computer languages for me. Back then, our assignment was to have a soccer player kick the ball in a circle.

Yup, plus a few others.

Very unique, when do you see cliffs where vegetation actual grows on its sides? Cardiff certainly does not.

I could sell my house and buy it and have enough money to buy gas for it for probably a month!
