Pick one, they are all great, you can't go wrong.” 10:39:38 AM 11/10/04 “It's a field study course. We are going to all four.” 10:45:32 AM 11/10/04 “Bonus! The cool factor just pegged.” 10:49:18 AM 11/10/04 “maybe Hannibal can eat your brains from your head like in the movie...that cracked me up...scoop some out, cook them and feed them right back to ya” 10:49:33 AM 11/10/04 “you want to nibble on my sexy brains, don't you?!? :) yummmmmm...tastes like jello” 10:54:41 AM 11/10/04 “Sounds great, Twinks! What will you be studying in the field?” 11:04:56 AM 11/10/04 “Not quite sure yet what our specific goal will be. The overall goal is to study the geology of these specific areas. Hopefully some field mapping? Details come out the middle of this month.” 11:13:40 AM 11/10/04 “oh the comment I could come back with on nibbling ;)” 11:18:06 AM 11/10/04 “I was looking at more internships today... This one in RMNP is very demanding. This was in the position description: "This physically demanding work includes hiking up to 210 miles in a day."” 1:45:00 PM 11/10/04 “Wow, those people could hike the AT in 10 days.” 1:47:17 PM 11/10/04 “Wow is right. I'm in pretty good shape, but I don't think I could hike more than about 190 or so, maybe 195 with a tailwind....” 2:11:00 PM 11/10/04 “Wow! That sounds like quite an adventure! Good job on snagging that gig!” 2:20:53 PM 11/10/04 “210 miles a day? Geez! They should have been more specific "looking for Superman Biologist"” 10:01:17 AM 11/15/04 “Wow...210 miles in a day. Let's see...leaving 6 hours for sleeping, eating and all the other stuff you have to do in a normal day, 210 miles / 18 hours = 11.67 mph. That's a pretty good clip for hiking.” 10:09:43 AM 11/15/04
