Wooooooooo!
Another night of working late in Atlanta.... I'd like to have had dinner with the family tonight and helped my wife put my children to bed tonight... however, the hours are good for business and I am thankful I have a job to help provide for my family.

Hope everyone's night/week is off to a good start. Drop me a line and please help me keep my sanity. Cheers!

1. Good on ya RT Atlanta
I'm sure your family are proud of you, in these crappy times you're hanging on in there to help make life better for them.

Be proud of yourself!

2. Thank you Jackeens
... and since today is "write a letter of appreciation day" I want to write you a short note and tell you how much I appreciate the photo threads you put together. I can't imagine how much time it takes to put together, but the photos are always relevant and most appreciated. Have a good night and thanks for the note!

:)

4. Ah RT Atlanta, you're so lovely
The photo threads are just a labour of love, nothing more than that, just designed to raise one or two spirits in these head-wrecking days.

But people like you are the heroes, I genuinely believe that - working all hours of the day and night to look after your families.

Again I say, be PROUD of yourself.

Luv ya.

6. back atcha Emily!
:toast:

It's 1am and I am not quite sure whether I have another 15 minutes to go, or another 2 hours... hopefully closer to 15 minutes.

The flip side is that driving through downtown this time of morning is like a ghost town - really quite extraordinary to see so few cars on 75/85.

have a good night!

7. Just arrived in Atlanta at about 12:30 am...
Catching a morning flight home, but not enough time to make it worth going to a hotel. Commuting and reroutes suck!

10. Thank you Suich!
The end of the "work day" (which started at 8:30am local time btw) is close (finally!).

Slum Dog was a good movie and I hope you enjoyed it. And, if by your avatar, you live in the Jet City, please give it a proverbial smile for me. My wife and I lived out there for 4 years in the mid/late 90s (in an apt on Queen Anne a 10 min walk from the Space Needle!) and we miss it tremendously.

Cheers!

11. Hi, neighbor. I'm up in Woodstock in Cherokee County,
which I think is the reddest area of North Georgia.
