I am taking a temporary vacation from here partly due to the fact that I am now part of the 9.2% unemployment as a result of my former municipality employer now outsorcinig it's IT Department, but also needing to help my father who has health issues. Kind of a blessing in disguise. I'm leaving the Phoenix metro area for rural SW Oregon. I have been and will be checking in on my phone, (and have been doing the library thing as well) but will return soon. I just ask that you keep me in your thoughts as I travel the next few days.
Sorry to hear that. Have a safe journey and good luck!
+1 on what Nathan said. Don't quit shaving your legs and armpits and go all Oregon on us...oh wait... ;)
Be safe....
safe travels and gods speed
All the best. That's a big move.

What are you comparing it to?
Sorry, back on topic now...good luck with the move and hope your luck (employment-wise) changes too.
Sorry to hear about your job loss. I am also very proud of you, for whatever that is worth, for stepping up and helping your dad. That says tons about your character. Please keep up posted.
Now, back to ripping on Sauerkraut.
Greetings from Oregon, specifically Coquille.
Being the foodie that I am I found a great little German/Seafood place in Coos Bay that I will have to take in moderation otherwise I will never fit in my car. http://www.blueheronbistro.com/ (http://www.blueheronbistro.com/)

Will post more later and see all of you around the boards.
Forgot one thing, there are some really nosy neighbors around here. Found these three in the front yard when I came home from Safeway (about the size of a large Walgreens)
