BCR of SnarkPatrol could probably explain the real physics better than I ever could. I can also see why it doesn’t work as ‘Road Warrior’ type vehicle modifications and how it shortens vehicle lifespan. Extra weight tends to do that, even with things like semis which are designed to... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html Sat, 09 Jun 2007 22:30:33 -0600 MSN]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-61060 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-61060 Tue, 12 Jun 2007 10:04:08 -0600 Hmm, bears manipulating marmosets. "Some" people might get some kinda charge out of that. Others might be prudent and say nothing. Well, I'm nothing if not imprudent.. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-61013 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-61013 Mon, 11 Jun 2007 02:53:32 -0600 I have season tickets for the New Theater and just signed up for another season. As you say, the food is superb, the entertainment outstanding and if you can't make your standing reservation ticket changing is easy. Additionally there no bad seats. It's a great place. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60973 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60973 Sat, 09 Jun 2007 20:28:23 -0600 There's a marmoset on her masthead, JTG.

Knowing that yer married to a presumably dangerous Marine, I must tread lightly here, but ain't a marmoset sorta like a monkey? http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60967 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60967 Sat, 09 Jun 2007 16:05:47 -0600 Everyone wants to play with my marmoset. *sigh* http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60966 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60966 Sat, 09 Jun 2007 13:32:29 -0600 Kate, I'm happy that you and the Sergeant are now able to get decent hot meals, after all that time in the Sandwich Islands. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60964 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60964 Sat, 09 Jun 2007 11:57:21 -0600 I'm so glad the two of you could join us! Thanks to the mimosas, I lost track of our martini count. You and SWWBO certainly know how to make turning 40 painless! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60963 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/hi_fires_09_jun.html#comment-60963 Sat, 09 Jun 2007 10:55:11 -0600 Yup, I'm with you about the flag-worship.
