3-12-03 will be the start of massive layoffs at Gateway.  We're told 25% of the company will get cut.  This will include a lot of the Country Stores.  If you know anyone aside from myself who works there, pray for them if that's your cup of Joe.   I'm just counting on being unemployed by Friday.

On a side note, the layoffs got pushed to Monday now we're told.  Needless to say, productivity is low... very low.  hehe

Anyhow, if I DO get the axe, I'll be at the next LAN down there!  Heck even if I'm not, I'll still make it down...  BF1942 style!

DUGs vs. Ambush! huh?  Could be interesting.  My only concern is that the Kid won't play UT anymore.  If the DUGs are coming down as a clan, then is there any possibility of maybe an exhibition match of UT?  Pleeeeeeeaaaaaasssssseeeeee???????:drool::drool::drool::drool::drool:

Well, I know Godspeed wants to for sure, Moe is leaning hard at making it.  We're talking about bringing his camper down and parking it in the lot down there.  Maybe bring a grill down and do some tailgating inbetween gaming.  We're working on a fourth person or more people to make the trip.

You guys see any problems with parking a 5th wheel camper in the lot there?  I joked about running a gig line in from the thing, so we could be uber lazy and game from there and not have to carry anything in... lol

:)


On a side note, we're all out of practice up here on UT.  But I do believe we'll brush up a bit before we make the trip...  ;)

I don't think the games would be as lopsided this time, you guys have gotten a lot better since then.  We thought we'd get our butts kicked that time.  :)

Glad to hear you dodged that one.  Guess you didn't lose ALL your UT skills! ;)

As far as the 5thh wheel?  Still waiting for final word.  The person who was doing the research had a baby last weekend.

Which reminds me... http://www.ambushsite.com/forums/viewthread.php?tid=221
