Dave I just heard that there is P**P everywhere and that the environmental clean-up crews from the east side of the island, are using the side slung Mk2 Grimshaw & Etheridge Revolving Shovel and making headway in the cleanup..Have you heard anymore??
|
By Geologydave on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 3:28 pm: |
Freddie, how nice to see you in the daylight. could someone post a pic of the cleanup?
|
By Kelly Lott on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 3:38 pm: |
ahhhh much better.... Dave I barely recognized you.

I'm working on getting the connection to the media stations on Bonaire fixed up at the moment..

By Jake Richter - NetTech on Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 3:39 pm: |
I wish I could Dave, but as you can see, the big crater in Kralendijk from the so-called explosion has destroyed my internet connection, so this message had to be posted telepathetically (spelling intentional) - that's hard work incidentally. Haven't figured out how to post pictures using this type of connection yet.

Hey, there's hope for my Joe to become employed on Bonaire yet....he is an Operator at a Waste Water treatment plant in NJ and it sure does sound like they will need some help with the "situation" down there, now! Aha! I knew if we were patient we would be able to line him up with work on Bonaire...we thought it might have to wait until the new plant was ready to be started up on the island, but this definitely changes things.

You people are going about this all wrong. You're looking down and you should be looking up. Fortunes of leaving a rock hound in charge.

Oh my gosh!!! I got home from work and was hit by this telepathetic message that must have been sent to me from Jake! Nothing like this has ever happened to me before! I just visualized this great hole with tons of p""p...that the locals and visitors have been busy shoveling into bags! In the process they have stumbled on a bent shovel... a shard of multicolor fabric..and one blue sock....Have all the diggers been found!?

One small question for all the diggers: Do you think you'll have Kralendijk rebuild before may 28-th?? Otherwise we'll have to look for another place to get married...

Martin: You have nothing to fear, for I, personally, will be certain the town is back together by the morning of May 24th, the latest! That's when Joe and I arrive....everything is "under control" on this end. Must be up and running for the "peek/peak season" on Bonaire, ya know! Have faith in those who are in charge of the "charge"....hey, time is getting closer for us now, isn't it?! Yay! Your nuptials are closing in, too.......a wedding on Bonaire sounds sooo wonderful!

You are right Cynde and it looks as if the Mk2 Grimshaw & Etheridge Revolving Shovel made it out too.. Meryl must have been last coming out of the hole..She seems rather short...And is that Clint hiding from the camera???

I was wondering what happened to my shovel, it was absconded. I got a poor performance review for slacking on the muck clean up, now I know why, no shovel. My future in muck chucking has been upchucked. WHAT WILL I DO! No profession no future. Anyone heard if we will be getting a payout for the screen rights? I have feeling they will be needed shortly.

I have hardly ever had a problem with my Acme products in the past. When I did it was user error. These new Spishak pixel-popper enhancement goggles sure are something! When used with the cave mushrooms one can see so CLEARLY. Things that were not obvious in the past are RIGHT THERE and the COLORS are so vivid! Makes me want to go see Donny in "Technicolor Dream Coat" again! I wonder if they work like blacklites on fish?

Dave was checking out the fuel prices not to long ago, may come by here. His 28.8 modem is a little slow to make the plunge into the the 'Thief Thread'. It got to deep for Keely too and he is probably tending his sheep. I don't know if Loo Hoo has been released from the hospital. Harleyanna is drafting reconstruction plans. Both GoC and Spidey have warrants out for their arrest because of the "Fury of the Gods" fiasco and are in hiding. And you seem to be doing a supurb job as usual!

I think that the 1/16 flow slope you drafted is a LITTLE steep. What do you plan on doing, turning the sewage facility into a Water Park? May just work! Just think a ride that races through the tunnels, shoots out into the ocean at a depth of 350', then slowly floats to the surface following the reef, while hundreds of robotic fish swim around the capsule...............We may even have to get Disney in on this one. 7 flags across Bonaire, Water World VII! Probably should start looking at a Public Stock Offering. I'm sure there is an Attorney down here in these caves somewhere.

Only the prototype of the T600A had "harsh ribbing". The production version used space-age super-flexible polymeric plastics to provide maximum comfort without compromising the rigidity needed to maintain the perfect form. Production was halted only after some models reported adverse reactions and reduced visibility when the device was worn over large quantities of silicone.
