Not Irn Bru?

I went off Lucozade when i was in secondary school. Used to drink it after rugby games but my god after a while the stickiness got too much. Plus I sometimes forgot to take out my gum guard.... that didnt end well.

*buys a round for the house and returns the hug to Miz*

Well, my dear, a very good friend of mine received a job offer in the far off system of San Diego. Whilst saying our final goodbye's to him before he moved away, his back up pilot decided to bail on him. I was offered as an alternative. So on Wednesday last, my friend and I left our home system of St. Paul and began the whirlwind adventure that was ROAD TRIP.

We covered many light years. I enjoyed the warm ocean reprieve over our home's subfreezing temps.

Alas, I was required to return if not for just business, but to continue the warmth and patronage of the TGFB.

However, being able to wear shorts and a t-shirt and not feel subarctic discomfort. Tough to walk away from.

Sadly, one of best friends now lives halfway across the galaxy.

Another round for the house, please.

Thats almost exactly how it works!

We did make a slight detour in Kansas. I met up with one of my podcasting counterparts (Kyle Yanowski). We had a very nice dinner while waiting for rush hour traffic to die in KC.

Did you have to cut through Amarillo? He went on at length through the geography of how to get there from Minnesota.

You're one of those people at coffee shops typing on their macbook arent you? Evil

But of course. And when I pop up at your desk to interrupt your work, I bring my smart phone along. So while you are answering my question, you have to be on hold while I check every incoming text and answer every incoming call. Blink

Good old Amarillo, my birthplace. It's the world's largest truck stop, more or less, surrounded by 100s of miles of nothing. "Drive farther and see less" is the slogan around there. My cousin and I once accidentally burnt about a square mile of Amarillo grassland by lighting blowing tumbleweeds on fire. Sad

You know Gray, we really should be charging Quafe for this free advertising they're getting.

Heya Miz, or shall we say Mizz. You look......altogether different.

For some reason the like button has bugged. It done that for anyone else?

And you're right Random. I say 1000isk per post should cover it.

Nah, it's working for me. Maybe you're too "Welsh" for the likes button.

Oh, and please respond, we need to fatten our wallets.
