: Hey ya Cool Guy!

: Dontcha woory, I'm the sort to quote people, it's quite the thing to do.
: Actually, I memorize many quotes, and with studied nonchalence (and a
: ironic raising of one eyebrow), casually say the saying, pause for the
: dramatic effect, and state the author of the saying. Such things are sure
: winners, especially with the heroic pose, properly backlit by the rising
: (or setting) sun. Look closely, you'll notice I have a pinky finger
: extended, too (sign of being a graduate of charm school). Hell, I ought to
: run for President, huh?

: Okay, I'll be serious for one second and one second only. We're having the
: time of our lives right now. I used to be a serious bureaucrat, but no
: longer. Rikki on the other hand has a great job with Universal and she can
: take off between projects whenever. Me, I had to quit to begin living.
: Best thing I ever did. Still, could you imagine working-slaving-for some
: promise of a retirement, then die without living to recoup all the time
: lost? Jeeez, that is the worst thing I can imagine. On this trip I met a
: guy, Dean Egger, who was traveling the world. He once was a attorney who
: actually owned an apartment in Manhattan, and longed for the country, and
: one day he quit, sold everything, and travels about in his Ford, taking
: pics and hiking/climbing/biking the country. Pretty neat guy with a wealth
: of experiences. He told me his previous life was a blur of years without
: meaning. Surely I knew what he was about.
: So we're debating whether to head down to Florida or head to NZ. choices...

Hey Mike & RikKi

You can travel the States any time, best take in Nz now while you can. My little brother's been there twice that I know of and loved it. Wonderful people and "Sorta" lots to do.
My big wish is Aussie-land. Missed it when I had the R & R from Nam, and then got too wrapped up in "getting by" and haven't been able to escape. Taking care of family and all....

Good to hear from you again.
