 Sorry Little Mermaid, it didn't work. That was the best Texas roping lingo I could muster. |

That was the best Texas roping lingo I could muster.It seems BladeD understood all you said as opposed to me who had a hard time   OldChap, you keep whipping up amazing numbers for us  Even as the going is good (to say the least) we should prepare for worser going. Therfore we invite everyone to join Sawyer's Cancer Fighting Network and 159 hardworking Base Campers - all well distanced - foaming from soap and - stinking from hand sanitizer  |

Agreed. A lot of us cannot hit this so hard for so long and there are various reasons for that
----------------------------------------BUT If we can get the required Years per Day figure low enough with the aid of some short term help then it will make it easier when we no longer have that help |

I'll stay until next Monday then I'll have to get back to my team.
----------------------------------------@LM Yes, I heard Houston for VietOZ, but he has Vietnam in his SNURK sign. Was born in Vietnam after the war, escaped out of there when I was 10. Lived in a refugee camp in Indonesia thru out my teenage years. Didn't get to the States until I was 18. Been living in Houston ever since. @PecosRiverM I might have to place a order w/NewEgg or Amazon for a 3990 I just can't catch "Deltavee" to save my backside.

@Eugene Zenzen and @deltavee, thank you so much
for your indication your intention to stay with Sawyer's Cancer Fighting Network until the mission is completed. It means a lot to have a backbone like this   @VietOZ, thank you for letting us know you can stay till Monday. Should you get any vacancies before this trek is over, we should appreciate any time you can spare. And, yes, I thought along the lines you sketch. What does the 'OZ' stay for? I had the good luck to visit Vietnam in 2001 and have many good memories. You must have worked hard in your new country to be able to crunch this much now. OldChap, you're so right. You have summoned several of your XtremeSystems team mates, and with their help, we are able to 'feather our nest'. One fine thing about the composition of this crew: We have top performers and we have everyday performers who run this as it was originally intended and all have joined because of the cause - in this case: Fighting cancer. Thank you each and every one of you  |

Viet original ... or originally from VietNam. I worked 72 hours/week for 7 years straight now and haven't had a vacation in 9 years, but I also was unemployed for almost 4 years so that's kinda even out  |
