I think Oregon is the only sunny place right now. It is snowing in Washington, snowing in California and here sits Oregon with no snow. I came back from AZ to snowmobile. Guess I should have stayed in Southern Ca. if I wanted to play in the snow. Life just isn't fair sometimes. It is working out, I decided to put a new roof on the house in Oregon. I am an optimist. I think I am the only person who would remove a roof in January. The good news is roof contractors are not busy in January. It is sunny today and they should be done by Monday. Maybe I should give you their names Evan. I think I am going to take the snowmobiles back to Arizona where I might get to use them. I believe they have snow in Flagstaff Terry ELG440@xxxxxxx wrote: In a message dated 1/9/2005 9:17:57 A.M.

When I read who it is from, I can figure out what it is, most of the time. I am sitting in the new house, with the roof leaking in three rooms. The main bathroom is still torn up, where the tile man is now in his second year of doing the work. (Anyone remember Eldon?). It has rained now for five days straight, the sun seems to have disappeared, the dogs are soaking wet and loving it. We have to leave the cars out of the garage to use it for breeding at least four days a week now, and for some reason the puppies find howling is a new hobby. For me, these posts lately mean a good fight that is the most interesting thing going on, and I am enjoying the lively give and take. I am sorry that the administrators will probably soon put an end to it, but it sure was fun while it lasted. Nasty little hints, sly innuendoes, personal attacks, and opinions that seem to go nowhere, make my day. It is so much more interesting than what is going on in Germany. Of course, as a irrigator, it is just another day for me. I say, let's get them both in a big mud pit, and cheer them on. I can fanaticize. But, has anyone considered making this an event at our National? We could have it right after the Parade of Greats and before Juniors. It could include The Marvelous Christine vs. the Unbeatable Sally; then we could have The Ever Lovely Flower Boy vs. The Current Champion Gary, and The All Knowing Lee vs the Rest of Us. I like the idea, but we need to work on the match-ups. I say, "Bring it on."
