    I remember it not being the best of highways - 405?

    I-405 is being expanded right now. The goal is to get three or more general purpose lanes in each direction plus an HOV lane for its entire length from Southcetner to Lynnwood. In fact, I spent six years working for the project.

    Thats alot of work and time. Must be hard to watch the evening news and hear the know nothing whine all night long

    Whats the big shopping day in Douglas? or do you have to go to Ireland or England to really shop?

    Hahaha I was like "how the hell does he know Douglas??!!"

    We have shops/stores here but not much choice so most people shop online or take day trips to Liverpool.

    Have you ever been here seeing as you're originally from Ireland?

    Ha ha! Fortunately, even though I'm trained in civil engineering, I was working in the business group on cost controls (budgeting, assessing progress, and forecasting). I couldn't be blamed for the mess...

    No, I never made it over but a family I know from Dublin moved there - I think they bought a B&B. I would like to visit and the Channel Islands as well. I did get to Scotland a few years ago.

    Wasn't it though? My job was to say "there's a problem", not "and it was my fault."

    I think you should get one of those belts that WWE wrestlers get. But just until the next person gets home...

    Yes, the Isle of Man TT - motorbike road racing :) It's immense!

    I'm still here but about to have a 121 meeting....woooooo.

    I got a job interview for a local telecom company - it's on Friday - bricking it a little.

    Thanks Brandy, I'm going to need it! I knew I'd get the interview, just because it's a bit of shift work that I'm not sure I'll be available to do, grrrrr.
