Can't resist the rare opportunity to correct Turtle's spelling or grammer.

Can't resist the rare opportunity tell you it's an intentional double entendre of the geometric mathemagical kind.  It is characteristic of much of my writing.

{sigh} Tormod, let me remind you again...
You have been scouting around for a responsible job opening for me!
And one-way tickets for me and Gwen to Europe.

Re: What's Goin On in Our Real Lives
Well, I'm in playne view. Finally took my sling off and started wearing decent long-sleeved shirts and slacks. Spent 4 hours this morning getting measured for a brand NEW wheelchair. It's a hot momma, let me tell you. It tilts. It adjusts seat height. It has a "speed package". No freakin kidding. Black leatherette (c) upholstery with royal metallic blue paint on the exterior metal parts. Adjustable headrest. Did I mention the "speed package"???? Off-road capability.

Or were you thinking about something more, uhm, intellectual?

You left out the "satellite dish" and "minibar" (not to mention the whisky dispenser).

...and the low-profile white-wall tyres! And where's the damn chromed running board? Pyroflex, these guys are doing you in! I also didn't see anything about a rear-view mirror - where you hang your dice from, brother?!?
You can at least insist on a custom spray job? With flames 'n stuff? Or is that aftermarket?

Re: What's Goin On in Our Real Lives
Rear view mirror? With a chair that fast he doesn't care about what is behind him. The only problem is getting EPA clearance for the PPC (Plutonium Power Cell).
Pyro, are you getting the one that lifts up so you can talk from a higher position in front of groups? I remember you mentioning something about that. If you can get one that lifts so high that you play defense against Shaq. THAT would be a tricked out wheel chair.

Here 'bouts we call that fabric "pleather", a contraction of plastic-leather.  Speakin' o' here 'bouts, maybe now that ya got off-road zoom-zoom-zoom (c) we can have you & Gwenn up for a bona fide Bigfoot hunt.  I can rig a PTO from your chair to my new Dibble machine & we can use the sound to lure in the criptoids.
Nice to hear you're back in the saddle Winston.
