Sweet, thanks. I'll give that a try! Now i just have to think of a reason to go find clean hippies (should such a creature exist).

Speaking of environmentalist wackos, I grew up in OR and seem to remember a story about a chick who climbed up a tree and stayed there for over a year - would have been in the early 90s. It might have been in extreme NORCAL, but if memory serves, she was actually pretty hot. I'll bet she's working for a Fortune 500 company now (maybe Weyerhaeuser ) and she uses that story at cocktail parties.

Julia Butterfly Hill was her name, Earth First! type activities are her game. She's not hard on the eyes.

It would be fun to have her over for dinner and serve Spotted Owl - not telling her until after the meal was complete, of course.

Got a Garmin eTrex for a graduation present. It comes with a basic North America roads software load. Pretty basic B&W screen but very accurate, has WAAS, I plug in waypoints for all my roadtrips and don't even look at the atlas anymore. I've even taken it flying a couple of times. Good thing about it is it's reliable and relatively inexpensive compared to a lot of the GPS units out there.

Perhaps I could pass it off as a soy product. They can do amazing things with soy these days (so I'm told). "Say, Brett, this texturized soy protein loaf you've made sure is tasty!" "It sure is, Julia...it sure is (turns to the camera and winks)".

Bought a Garmin Quest 2 last summer. Little bigger than a pack of smokes. Comes with the US preloaded on it, is USB updateable, has every restaurant, hotel, etc. you could think of.

Retails for around $750. Think I ordered it for about $450. Great for traveling TAD for slapping into rental cars.

Don't eat meat, but she sure like a bone.

I hear the taste is a delicious cross between California Condor and Bald Eagle...

well theres two ways that she could eat it. One of them is not telling her. thats the consensual one
