She stretched herself up on tiptoe, and peeped over the edge of the mushroom, and her eyes immediately met those of a large blue caterpillar, that was sitting on the top, with its arms folded, quietly smoking a long hookah, and taking not the smallest notice of her or of anything else." -Lewis Carrol, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"

  Thanks for the birthday wishes y'all.  Seems like a quarter of a century has come and gone.  I would reflect on that, but I would rather plan my upcoming road trip across the interior of Alaska.  As Jack London once said, "The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time."
