Hey Xac... congrats!

Is the new job related to wood and metals in any way?

Cheers!

A little bit of woodworking but not much else.

But I am going to start my own company in late summer this year for blacksmithing.

Make sure you don't throw all bags in the same garbage container :D

Tsk... that's organic waste, wouldn't wanna put that into the container. There's a deep, deep wood outside *fg*

Eh, you reminded me about a friend of mine. She was born and raised in Louisiana, in some swampy area. WHen she and her younger sister started going out, once she was invited on a date. The guy came home to pick her. Her silly dad invited the young guy inside until she is ready. Then he explained that if the girls ever come home crying, there are plenty of crocodiles in the backyard :)

That's the ecological approach. No problems getting rid of the evidence and the crocodiles (wouldn't it be alligators in Lousiana?) are fed and happy. Win-win-situation.

I always mistake one for the other, crocs, gators, all good for garbage disposal :D (or just use some Pandoran beast)

Now up to the next steps.

A Toyota Yaris in blue (can't find a samll-enough pic just now). Sold the Aygo to the .. Autohaus .. and got me this one.
More technology in this thing then the eagle ... crazy.

No Just a 'normal' one, I wouldn't have the money for that ( got a 'raise' last week ... a whole 100 bucks more a month and that from a low starting point ... and I worked 9,45 hours today ... ridiculous).
Funny how much bigger this car feel, despite not being that much bigger than the Aygo after all. But I guess 5cm can make quite a difference.

Yeah, 5cm can make a lot of a difference. I saw both cars side by side at a Toyota dealer once and for some reason the Yaris looked definitely bigger than the Aygo. Although I liked the Aygo to - it's a fun car and some models even come with a big roof that can be opened (for me personally a buy/buy not criterium)

Yeah - I am used to a non-openable roof by now and to be honest it's too cold for that 9 out of 12 months a year here anyway.

There is that - your climate is rougher than ours.

Hmm - how? Is it really that easy just to say "I'll have an apartment" , "I'll open a buiseness"? where you live? Here you would have to either already have a lot of money or close to unnatural luck. Most smaller buisenesses simply die within one to two years, their owners being in debt for the next 150 years or so.
