I've been so busy.. still am, but had to pop my head in.
I was gonna post a q.. but couldn't find a place for it.
I wanna talk about torrents.. just use the lounge?
Any Access developers here?
and no, this is *not* an open for dissing Access!

You left?
Welcome back, I probably didn't take much notice of your missing because I have been pretty busy lately myself.

Yeah, KoL is a rotten addiction alright. I haven't had a lot of time to play here or there lately. Now that you mention it you haven't been on much lately. What is keeping you so busy?

Also, the term 'busy busy' makes me think of the classic Christmas clay-mation movie Frosty the Snowman, the magician guy says that after Santa threatens him with coal instead of magic tricks.

kol.. well, always find time for that.. I often have it on one monitor while I'm working on other stuff. I mean.. most of it *is* mindless.
as for access - i need to expand my staff - so i'm looking for a moonlighter to take on a serious project. not just answer a few qs for me.
uh - no, not *that* busy .. yeeesh!
i gotta admit.. there's nothing like being the center of a bunch of guys! I started off feeling really rotten.. but having you all jump in here.. wow! thanks. I think I've really missed our chats! just plain, fun, goofing off chatting!

A moonlighter, huh? I need some extra cash, bills are catching up with me. Any chance of this moonlighter thing being able to be done over the internet or email?

>>i'm looking for a moonlighter to take on a serious project.
Well that counts me out - I've already got a serious project on the side in addition to full time employment.

Hiya Tracy! How's things going?

Not too shabby.
I've been working from home for over 3 years and it's turned out pretty good - I haven't had to get a 2nd job flipping burgers.
on the personal side - it's up and down.

hiya Huntress! how's the fam?
looks like Carobit Mail defaulted to disabled when Pino recreated the site. now it's fixed.
starl, >>"on the personal side - it's up and down."<<
i think that's a safe description of life in general. this summer i sold my house in PA (for top-dollar, right before the housing slump) and paid off all of my debt (damn, that felt excellent), then a month later i fell, cracked 3 ribs and whiplashed my neck, and now have $5,000 in medical bills (hadn't been at the new company long enough to get medical benefits). Murphey rules!
but your business must be doing well if you're looking to expand it! congratulations!

$5k for 3 ribs and a neck?
damn! I had an appendectomy and it cost $15k!!!
the really crappy part - I had just changed our medical this year to the higher deductible because we never used it (medical we got sux for routine stuff).

yea, but they actually DID something to you.
all they did to me was stuff me in a bus, ship me down the hill to the hospital, zap me with catz, and send me home with a script.
nobody actually touched me, and they get 5k???
i'm in the wrong line of work!!!
