I’m going away

[marigold]

I decided to take a job in Afghanistan. The work will involve installation of groundwater supply wells for the military.

I leave, basically, on July 25th of this year for a year long assignment.

So, I may not be around much after this date. But I’ll still lurk. Anyway, my best to this forum and I hope to check back soon.

Love to all the freaks.

Cool, and not cool! Cool opportunity, but I hate to see you go, with a big chance that we have even less contact…

Before you go, can you send me all member stuffs that still needs to be uploaded? And the eagle is on it’s way already also, right? Lots of fun over there in Afghanistan, and take care bro, let’s try to stay in touch as much as we can…

[manillascissor]

I actually have nothing to upload from members at this time.

I’ll submit pics and shit from over there. I won’t be lost forever.

[last_rose_of_summer]

Wow, Afghanistan! That’s a big move! Good luck and best wishes!

I guess they mean one piece alive… not one piece in a bodybag.

[blueczarina]

AHEM!

ok, I guess they are not important….

Good luck over in the war-zone – actually it’s not as bad as most people think. Some people are doing some awesome stuff over there: http://www.permaculture.org/nm/index.php/site/class-7/

[Anonymous]

men in tents….sounds hot

stay safe

we will miss you

and a bunch of other stuff I can say later

[manillascissor]

Such is life….

now i’m not going. glitche in the matrix. i see ones and zeros and i’m dodging bullets in slow motion. where’s my brunette?

[Cool As Ice Cream]

ok!

are you sad you’re not going?

[Arthur]

Tssss… Yeah, what’s the story?

[blueczarina]

interesting, yeah, what made you change your mind?

[Arthur]

This, probably. Do you see Derek dance in Afghanistan alright?

[last_rose_of_summer]

You’re not going? I didn’t know. I need to come on this forum more often. What happened anyway?

[manillascissor]

yeah, turns out 2/4 rigs over there are broken beyond repair, so they have no use for me atm. so i’m stuck in the states trying to find work for now.

[Cool As Ice Cream]

good luck with that.

[manillascissor]

going away again. i don’t think most people care, perhaps like 4 people around here. not sure when i will return, but i’m so drained on the pumpkins and everything, i need a break.

i think a lot of people keep their online persona going at all times, to try to enhance their shitty existence. i want to put more time into a REAL existence, and not this online bullshit. (no offense to SPfreaks).

love SPfreaks and all it does. love being a part of it, but i’m basically done for now.

obviously, if you are a collector, i wish you luck and the best deal(s) ever. please keep posting about them so i can read about them. this is a truly special site, and i hope you all know that.

anyway, an indefinite and perhaps temporary \"peace out\". later

[Cool As Ice Cream]

enjoy real life!

hope to see you back one day.

[manillascissor]

life staying real for me.

i may take a job in another state. 24% raise. but the city is expensive. BUT, i’d be closer to monte.

so many decisions…

[marigold]

San Fran? Trying to think what else is there…
I’m going to be back there from 9-11 November before going back to NZ.
