<p><font size="7"> </font><b><font size="7">YA</font><font size="6">A</font><font size="5">A</font><font size="4">A</font><font size="3">A</font>WWN</b> ! [sigh][zzz][|)]<br></p><p>Way too early for a decent person to be up and awake on a Sunday morning! But, whatever I seem to be coming down with, does not let me sleep. After a few hours in bed, my back starts to hurt like crazy - something wrong with my kidneys, I suppose.</p><p>Well, Zoe (or Chloe - I´ll never get it right), I´ll have my "It-Is-Sunday-Big-American-Breakfast-With-All-the-Works" as Petra is not looking at the moment. </p><p><b>Barry </b>- Dupka, Dupeczka - do you speak Polish? When I worked in Poland, I had a hard time to grab that language. Most of my staff spoke German, so it was not a big issue. And the border to Germany was only 5 miles away... [:-,]<br></p><p><b>Jerry</b> - I like that new avatar [tup] </p><p><b>Sawyer</b> - congratulations on getting the Learner´s Permit. I still remember getting mine, back in 1973, at the DOT´s office in Bremerton, WA. After a couple of weeks I went for the real thing in Seattle. Back in Germany, I had that license just transcribed into a German "Fuehrerschein". Here you have to go to driving school to get lessons and practice your driving skills. It costs not only $$$, but $$$$$ to get your license, so I was really lucky, having to pay only a small fee for the transcription.</p><p>I won´t join in on that census issue, because I don´t want Chloe to get out the soapbox or wake up Vinnie. We do have the same BS over here, but not that often. For those who know German, it is called "Volkszählung", but as all of us have to be registered with the "Einwohnermeldeamt", there is actually no need to count our heads and but(t)s. </p><p><b>Jeff</b> - I hope you get that new brace soon - I have been reading about Charcot´s Foot as my BIL suffers from it as well. The brace he is wearing helps him quite a bit.</p><p><b>Todd </b>- and I bet she enjoyed it! Having grandchildren is so much more fun than having children - when this happens, you just return them to the mother [swg]<br></p><p>Currently, I am stuck in my thoughts about that track plan. I quite like it, but of course, it has its limitations in terms of operation. This is where I am torn between two lovers and start to feel like a fool [%-)][:-^]</p><p>In terms of space and budget, this is the max I can do in the foreseeable future. I have tried my luck and re-worked the plan a couple of times now, but in the end, there is not much of a change. 7´ 4" are 7´4" - and you cannot get the G&D cramped into that space... </p><p>Where is <b>Tom</b>? <br></p><p>The best is, to de-install my CAD program and just get started ... [yeah]</p><p>Have a good day! <br></p>
