543.0. "Next Time You See Me..." by TOLKIN::OSTIGUY (Ripples never come back) Mon Sep 09 1996 14:56

Next time you see me things won't be the same...
How true...some folks have M.D. or PH.D. after their names...well, as of this
morning, you can officially put TFSO after My Name...

Yup, my "Dechead" daze are virtually behind me, tho I get the feeling that
"once a Dechead, always a Dechead" or sumthin to that effect...

After almost 14 years of working inside digital buildings (5 years at d.c.u.and
8.5 years as a deccie) I am part of a finance purge...if it's not this time, it
could be next time...I am very optimistic about the future, and it's all
changing quite rapidly before me...

Very soon Karen and I will have a new address, we'll have to get her a car to
replace the ol' junk that died a few weeks back, after 16 years of wearing
contact lenses my poor ol eyes need a rest and I'm going back to glasses, and
hopefully before too long I'll have a new job...

Change is GOOD !!!  (we hope)    

One of the best things about my digital experience is meeting so many nice
folks, and YOU are in the majority of that number...it's just grate to have a
network of friends that have Music as a common passion...so, maybe I won't be
able to converse, or see you as "much" (or little) as I can now, but I know that
I will see you at Slipknot shows, parties, and general mischief gatherings. for
That I am Grateful, please pardon the pun...

I will miss the friendship and RESPECT that is shared in here...remember folks,
variety really is that ol spice of life, and all those other trite expressions
really do mean something...we can disagree and not be disagreeable...we can
talk/debate/argue about any number of things and still be friends at the end
of it...this is the most valued aspect of this notesfile, so many individuals
each with their own experience, coming together to appreciate each other,
learning from each other...gee, it sounds like a show :)))

Well, I'm beginning to ramble, so I'll put an end to this, but THANX go to
Chris Fields for turning me onto the notesfile and all of YOU...seeya soon !!!

PEace,

Wes

	oh man, Wes...I'm really gonna miss reading what you have to
	say in the notesfile, and the little messages you sometimes
	send me by mail...but I know we'll see eachother in person
	again, fer shure.

	keep your positive attitude!  I know good things will come
	your way - you'll find direction around some corner where it's
	been waiting to meet you (wish I could quickly come up with
	a Beatles line - more meaningful to you?!?)

	keep in touch with us and take care!
	Debess

543.9SMURF::connor.zk3.dec.com::hotpup::strobelMon Sep 09 1996 17:385
Wes, take care mon. You'll be missed 'round these parts but hopefully we'll 
catch up on "the outside". Being in Digital finance as well my take is 
there's no where but up from here!

      Bon chance!  You'll be missed in  here. I hope we can hook up soon.

    Not good news that you're going but I hope it's the beginning of
    a new/better adventure. I think many of us will be following you
    as Digital continues to chip away at us. 
    
    I wish you success with what ever you do. Hope to see you in the
    near future and an upcoming gathering ;-).
    
    A Red sox game this month might be in order too.
    
    Rage on!

    Sorry to see this happen, I being in Finance am always watching my
    back. Good luck in the future to you and Karen, I enjoyed meeting
    both of you in Worcester some time back. I also appeciated your 
    comments in this file, seems we are both Beatles fans.
