Conference quark::mennotes

    Well, this seems kinda ghoulish, but what the hell (oooh, I should
    watch what I say). . .
    
    I'm Jon Tanguy, a Manufacturing Engineer from Colorado Springs.  I've
    lived in Colorado since I was about 5 (I'm 26 now), so I hope they bury
    me somewhere in the mountains.  Preferably, far away from the nearest
    disk drive.
    
    I hope as my friends pay their final respects they talk about a person 
    who was a reliable friend, who helped when he could, and always gave 
    due respect, even in disagreement.  I hope they'll respect me for my 
    abilities as an engineer, and my ability to stay enthusiastic, even in 
    tough times (like today, for instance).
    
    Someone will probably say, "That damn liberal kid should've listened
    when I told him that the American family is in trouble.  He should have
    settle down with a wife and some kids.  That would've kept him out of
    this mess."
    
    I want to be buried with my high-tops on, in Levis with my black and
    gold Univ. of Colorado sweatshirt.  Maybe throw in my hunting rifle.
    Oh, and better include my motorcycle helmet, just in case Laguna Seca
    really is heaven!

    My friends will say, "It's about time; she certainly spent long enough
    house-hunting!"
    
    [Um, in my spare time I am an afficionado of cemeteries - and their
    contents - so this would be a very appropriate thing for them to say.
    ;-)]
    
    Hey, I never thought of it before, but my name would fit splendidly
    into one of those old-style canting epitaphs. Like, "Ashes to ashes,
    dust to dust, and at long last, an end to Rust." (Or something. I'll
    have to think about it.)
    
    I s'pose my surviving friends and family would remember my
    self-reliance (sometimes to ridiculous extremes) and my sense of
    humor; they might add, "We never knew what she did with her time,
    exactly, but she usually seemed to be enjoying herself."

    Probably say,
    
    "Pray their's no such thing as reincarnation!"
    
    

    Does this topic have a "ghost of a chance"?

    Definitely dying a slow and painful death. . .

    I had hoped for some more spirited replies...
    

    Anyone care to perform an autopsy on this topic?
    

    
       		It's not a matter of grave concern to me......
    

    
          Mork signing off....... :-)

    I know it's probably my own fault but I wonder if you guys might be a
    little less cryptic...

    "Too young to die"
    
    Anyway, I'm Jackie Warren and I work in the Resourcing Service Centre
    in the UK.  I live a sort of nomadic existance and work out of both
    Winnersh (moving to REO soon) and Solent Business Park (car + boxes =
    mobile office).    I love to....live.....anything else you want to
    know, just ask!  :-)

    She Got It On Sale

    Would anyone else care to try to resurrect this topic?

    Here lies Steve. Introduced to this conference by his good buddy Ed
    Walker, Steve has worked for Digital for 1 year. Unfortunately, he will
    be TFSO'd in about 4 weeks. But nonetheless, he is a swell guy who
    enjoys music, hiking, and booze.  RIP dood.
    a friend of -ss

         I am also new to this conference, but unlike SS I will be around
    for a while. Us CXO'ers are all on our way out, however. This
    conference looks interesting, but also rather chaotic. I see that the
    mods have shut down a number of notes. 

    This note has some of the makings of the Howard Sterns shows of tv and
    radio. Execpt we do not talk about explice sex. Instead we talk about 
    men and, of course, womens issues. Where in the =wymins= notes. Mens 
    issues are forbidden to discuss. 
    
    Where we parrell old Howard is when Steve starts shutting down strings
    like Howard gets shut down one station at a time.;0)
