i have a million and one questions. plus i always thought that a lug 
would be a great way to find folks to talk shop with. if i had a nickle 
for every time someone engaged me in a conversation about computers only 
to have them say, "i don't know anyting about computers" after i 
responded to their initial question...
take right now for instance, i am waiting for 460 packages to compile, i 
sure could use someone to talk to just to pass the time. started with 
over a thousand....
dum de de dumdum. i usually listen to music to pass the time, or go 
outside and pull weeds...8.21 inches of rain yesterday!
