    Getting $6-6.40 a pound @ 45K per week, while asking how to get more = enough to make me wonder, how many days would it take for Noble to answer that question in a Tweet? Almost fries the mind, don't it! ; )

    Haha, very funny. Just wait Bear, I'll getcha back for that!

    Yeah I know, walls of text, I apologize. I'm always afraid I'm not explaining myself well so I barf up words all over the computer screen, and surprising do so without getting my fingers too tongue tied.

    I get texts sometimes, and start to answer a question or and realize that it's probably not the best way to respond, and end up calling.

    It's kind of ironic, I don't tweet, I have tried, but I never can microblog my mind and get frustrated trying to.

    At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new. This is how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense. -- Carl Sagan
