Hello I must be going

Well, autumn is approaching, which can mean only one thing. It's time for me to write the world's first belch opera. I have this totally wicked aria in mind that will require the consumption of at least 6 liters of Mountain Dew. It ain't over until the fat lady burps.

I will be writing my gaseous opera while visiting my mom in Florida. I will be on vacation starting Tuesday, Sept. 15, and I will return to work on Tuesday, Sept. 22. Please let me know if you have anything pressing that needs to be taken care of before I leave.

thanks,

Dude

Ice Machine

Hi, everybody--

It looks like there won't be any snow cone making this morning in the main building. Not only have I run out of my favorite hobo-flavored syrup (I am currently trying to patent the extraction method once the murder charges are no longer pending), but the ice machine in the basement is not working. I think it's simply a matter of the opening where the ice comes out being frozen solid, so I have unplugged the machine to see if it will work once the opening thaws. If that doesn't work, we'll get a repair hobo out to fix the machine. I'll keep you posted...
