This site was recently blocked at my work place. So far no trouble but... Is it really worth the chance I have recently changed my tune. It is just a bonsai site. My job is much more importent. This also means (as you may have noticed) that I will not be around as much. This is also due to the fact that it is spring and I just have too much to do. Will still visit on the weekends. Have good stuff to post (Marco I. workshop and demo, lots of styling and re-potting, etc) just no time to get to it. I had an article written about me and my trees in the work newsletter as well as setting up a display at work to trying to drum up interest for the All State Michigan Bonsai Show (it seems to be working, getting a great response) as well as trying to get my trees ready to show, pond and yard mantinence etc. Not enough time. Anyway, some day I'll catch up (if I stop taking on more responsibility). Newt __________________ Opportunity must not be lost while the gods smile. -Li Jing

Heck, here I am on bonsaiTALK from the office ON A SATURDAY! No lookin' at naughty pix, tho. You'll get a write-up right quick! On second thought, prehaps I should work on my time management skillz ... pootsie __________________ p.s. My cat is a bonsaiTALK Master. Columbus Bonsai Society

Posts: 646	I have made a point to ask my boss if it's ok to check out bonsaitalk a few times during the day. He hasn't got a problem so long as it's not interfering with work.
