I finally proved to myself that I am not totally sane

We are leaving tomorrow at 5 PM for Birmingham for ImagiCon and won't be back until Sunday. This morning, Diana asked me if I wanted to build a directory for Buff. I didn't want to turn down $75, so I said sure. It's not a very complicated job. I knew I would have to finish it before we left, because Buff doesn't want to wait until Monday for it.

This job requires listing every region, county, and city in Florida. Somehow that did not compute.

Do you know how many cities there are in Florida?

I've been listing them for four hours and I'm about a third of the way through.

I stopped because my eyes are crossing.

Yes, I am certifiably nuts.

It was only nuts to do it for $75. Enjoy your trip.
Larry M. Mar 25, 2009, 5:17pm EDT
Hang in there. If you are nuts, most of the rest of us are too.

Good Luck

Well, David, usually that amounts to about 8 hours of work, so it's about $9.50 an hour and not bad for working from home on my own time. But this may be more like about $6 an hour.

GOOD LUCK

speeding by from comment speedway, hoping to help you towards your gather goal!
Rhetta A. Mar 26, 2009, 4:46pm EDT
I finished, and since there are 683 nodes in there now, it will be more than $75.
