top o' the mornin'®
Yes, it's evening, but this is the first chance I've had to logon. I'm in St. Louis this week for the Department of Defense E-Business Conference. I'm staying at the Marriott Renaissance Grand Hotel downtown. It's not very convenient to much (no sports bars or other restaurants within two or three blocks of the hotel, which isn't a good thing. Sessions start at 8AM and run untl 4:30 or so. The room has Internet access but it's intermittent - I logged on yesterday when I arrived but about 10 minutes after I did the connection was dropped (it's a hard connection, not WiFi).

Yeah, you're SOL if you want to walk anywhere but the Hilton, Rassison and Adam's Mark are a short cab ride away (near 4th and Pine). See if you like their bars.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Squirrels are the architects of forests, the planters of trees, nature's own acrobats and show a zest for life that can inspire us. Every day should be National Squirrel Appreciation Day!

Many of these (squirrel) migrations were probably caused by food shortages as well as habitat overcrowding. We solved that for them. We not only reduced their habitat, we reduced the whole species by about 90%. The least we can do now is share a little birdseed with them.

Saunter on over to Illinois and check out the local Mecca. I hear they've got a dynamite Cleaning aisle! Their Lawn and Garden, on the other hand, is somewhat slapdash.earendel wrote:Yes, it's evening, but this is the first chance I've had to logon.
