# Well nice to meet you, neighbor.
If anyone is familiar with the old Andy Griffith Show, I'll be in Mayberry tomorrow (in the old jail, which is now Surry County Telephone). They're apparently still behind the times, as they're still using Novell servers ;-)

# I
thought that Mayberry was a fictional town in NC.

# I dissect one of those
for my seventh grade classes, every semester.


/btw, we also used to live in Kinston, which was a very peaceful Mayberry-ish place.

# a gorgeous part of the world,
as I've mentioned before.

My family on mom's side is from High Point, so I've spent a lot of time in them thar parts.

# Gorgeous...
when it's not summer.

It's not even officially summer yet and it's been regularly in the upper 80s -lower 90s and HIGH humidity... :-p ICK. I'm not looking forward to the next 3 months.

I need to move to Norway.

EDIT: I think there is a joke that goes something like- In North Carolina, we have three seasons: Almost summer, summer, and Christmas.

School cheer:
We don't drink!
We don't smoke!
Norfolk, Norfolk!

# I
went there in April once and it was as hot then and there as it is here and now.

Are you retired?

# only for two months
and then I go back. I'm in sort of a work-release program, actually.
