Detlef Sping:
Shotgunning beer across a third rail circuit.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:32:21 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Thats comforting news.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:33:12 pm)
Detlef Sping:
So everything is going to be fine..
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:33:43 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Great.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:34:15 pm)
Heruka:
I suppose if you live in New York. it does me no good. I was hoping the power would remain out through the weekend.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:34:31 pm)
Myk Murphy:
i certainly have lost all interest in large city living, and that was well before the attacks and this silly blackout.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:34:50 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Apprehesively, tentatively, great.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:35:16 pm)
Detlef Sping:
remain out through the
weekend, for entertainment values?
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:36:08 pm)
Myk Murphy:
detroit comes back online by late in the weekend, which isn't so good, as i mentioned earlier.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:36:12 pm)
Heruka:
yeah, you need to tell me more about Virginia.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:36:16 pm)
Heruka:
no, our power out for the weekend. I liked living in the dark. we spent a week in the dark a few years ago, but that was due to s snaowstorm. and it was freezing.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:37:09 pm)
Myk Murphy:
oh yeah, i keep missing you. norfolk is kinda cool.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:37:17 pm)
Detlef Sping:
CNN needed something else to talk about. the Iraqui thing was too grim.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:37:46 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Oh I see, like camping.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:38:40 pm)
Myk Murphy:
it certainly is a welcome distraction for the folks around here.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:38:53 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Norfolk sounds great.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:38:57 pm)
Myk Murphy:
it's not too bad. generally, they don't get as much snow as we get, since they tend to get rain. every once in a while, however, they get a nasty ice storm.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:40:13 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Are they mostly decended from Norwegian folks or is the name a bit misleading?
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:40:16 pm)
Heruka:
heh. yeah, 'kinda cool' certainly lacks any description.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:40:18 pm)
Detlef Sping:
A steel breeze.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:40:52 pm)
Myk Murphy:
only a relatively short trip to the carolina beaches.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:41:55 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Black ice, has it's own charm.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:41:58 pm)
Heruka:
is it mainly a military town? or are there other things going on? I hear it's cheap to live there. are there a lot of hookers abd strip bars due to the sailors that are there? ever hear of a man named Thommy Roseman?
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:41:59 pm)
Myk Murphy:
well, there's a "suffolk" just south of it. go figure.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:42:29 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Cape May?
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:42:30 pm)
Detlef Sping:
I mean Thommy Roseman?
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:43:04 pm)
Myk Murphy:
yeah, it's a big navy town, what with the newport news shipyard, and the huge norfolk base. my brother in law once took me aboard a submarine on which he served. very cool.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:43:24 pm)
Myk Murphy:
cape may is in new jersey, at the very southern tip. norfolk has the big bridge tunnel to take you to the delmarva peninsula, too. very coastal, and popular virginia beach is there. sun and sand, baby.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:44:33 pm)
Detlef Sping:
What's that 'news' thing anyway?
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:45:00 pm)
Detlef Sping:
Ah yes in new jersey
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:45:34 pm)
Detlef Sping:
newport 'news', I still dont get it.
(Fri Aug 15, 2003 - 11:46:14 pm)
Myk Murphy:
i've always wondered about that news thing. it's odd, isn't it?
