Fell on Black Days

Man oh man, have things been great lately? You can't say that very often can you? So here's what's been on, got back from Spring Break in Floreeda, which was a lot of fun, did Wet and Wild, Universal and Seaworld. I got to indulge in a few coasters, at Seaworld, Kraken is awesome, at Universal, Dueling Dragons and and The Hulk are da bomb, my fave was the Hulk, because, when you are riding up the hill to the first downhill, you know sittin there slowly rising up "chunka, chunkachunka" of the chain drive all of a sudden you accelerate up the hill to 40mph into a barrel roll and an upside down dive into multiple loops, just a cool ride, the only one that I've been on that does that. What stunk about it was the fact that I had to ride alone. The really cool thing was, really short lines for many of the rides, I think the walk through all of the mazes was longer on most of the rides than the actual wait in line.

Kids had fun, we rented a house from an ex co-worker, had a pool, was close to everything, worked out great.

Flights went smoothly, no delays, no problems, all in all enjoyable, I think next year the wife and I are going somewhere a little more private sans kids, but we say that every year, so we'll see.

Next week the wife and I will be heading out to San Francisco, about a week out west, my wife has never been out there, so it will be fun. I have a class in SF then a plant visit lined up, flying out of San Jose, some driving around the south bay, it'll be good.

Mourning the loss of an old friend right now, my Creative MP3 player passed from usability this past week, one too many drops finally spelled the end, now I am shopping for a replacement, the Toshiba Gigabeat is looking good, mp3 and viddy o is a real winner on those trans continental flights, gotta get my 15% coupon from the lap top purchase and it'll all be good, smoov, jackson.

News from Dalmac. I'm in and so are alla the riders that got sent in on my envelope, god am I looking forward to that, black sabbath made an album called Heaven and Hell, and it describes that ride, I cannot wait.

Weather here sucks, snow on Easter? Who's the practical joker?

Hope 's'all good where ever you is, were, gonna be.

That's it. PO Monte.
