Travis xmas message

[user]

As I sit on the deck looking out into the darkness with a tall glass of
Boodies, I play back old memories. No reason, just that introspecting,
deep rooted need to check oneself. To see if there was anything missed.
Any passed up opportunities, which, when found, usually doesn't matter
in the scheme of things.
In my meanderings I came across something Meyer said. "Trav, you're
an anachronism. With all the high tech stuff in the world, you persist
in doing things the hard, brut force way."
Well maybe that's true, but I have never been comfortable in the
'normal' way of living. I am not a nine to five animal. I cannot swallow
the myths which say that 9 to 5 is a Good Thing because that's the way
nearly everybody else gets stuck.
But, to prove Meyer wrong, I decided to poke my head out a little
in this Techno world. With the help of a friend I did just that. She
showed me how to use her computer, and gave me some lessons on the
electronic world called the Internet. After stumbling around I said
that's it. This modern marvel brings the world to you. No longer do you
have to deal with traffic, ticket offices, airplane food, turbulence,
rain, bad breath, and sore feet. Nope. you can travel anywhere see
anything, without actually coming into contact with another single human
being. We have made the world a smaller place, ?.and a lot less
personal.
So much for my excursion into the 21st century. Give me my club
back. Saber tooth tiger for supper tonight, honey?
