What the ‘H’ am I doing at work????

#1 Unread post by havegunjoe »

It is 78 degrees, no humidity, and no wind out and I am stuck at work. I jumped on the bike at noon for a short ride and I should have kept going. It doesn’t get any better than this outside. Someone help me out of this place!!!

It's 96 degrees, humid, and a violent thunderstorm will arrive in the next half-hour. I took my car to work today just to ride in air-conditioned comfort!

(Plus I spent the last 3 days riding a motorcycle around upstate NY, so that itch is kinda scratched for the moment....)

I was under the impression that this site is now owned by a company based out of the U.S. ???

The CA toolbar says it's still owned by TMW in Calgary but the server is located in the US.

Right-e-o everyone, it is fully owned and operated by one individual... my husband. :D

The site is based out of Calgary, Alberta, Canada even though we are currently temporarily in the UK.

Just out of curiosity, what US company did you think owned it?

I can't recall any name. I remember that I tried typing the link to the TM site into the address bar and ended up on some site describing a myriad of stats about TM, including average hits and a dollar value of some sort. Again, this was quite some time ago, but I was given the impression that this site was owned stateside. Oh well.
