Santa Fe in Febuary?! Anyone else thinking of a ski dope? We’ve got plenty of time to plan… **Achernar** ---

Ski dope, eh? Sounds fun, but I’m not sure how much I’d enjoy breaking my legs in the freezing cold. Then again, it is time for a vacation (when isn’t it?) For that matter, I think I shall go on a prognosticator vacation. And while I’m there, **IDemandBeer**. ---

Nope. Me. Well, skiing was my first thought as well…Now I just have to persuade my supervisor to let me go… Should be easy enough. And on that note, I’ve spent too long at the office, I’m off home… **NCB** again ---

Gee, **Angua** , about the only redeeming feature of February in New England (unless you’re a skier) is that it contains my birthday. Of course, if you like ice, snow, sleet, frigid blasts of wind, and so forth, we can provide all you want. We haven’t seen **lel** in here for a while\> Where be she? ---

Good night, **Angua**. In the meantime, I hope there is not a prognosticator thunderstorm brewing outside. I’m especially concerned with the thunder and **(White) Lightning**. ---

_releases a large group of prognosticator wild turkeys_ I think I hear them clucking – they are clucking the name of **Troy McClure SF**. Indeed they are. _watches the prognosticating wild turkeys – if I didn’t know better, that would sound somewhat off-color_ ---

Just back from an extended engagement at the beach, and I can’t believe I’ve missed so much new exploration of the depth and breadth of mundane and pointless. We’re charting new waters here folks; this makes the old a-thread seem somehow, shall we say, high-minded. Let’s call for a post from my old a-crush, the **twickster**. If only I had seen this thread yesterday, I could have bestowed the honor of my 500th post, which incidentally went to the wonderful light bulb thread.
