[QUOTE=GCote] Not me either... I need to work for 82 more days before I can get the next 6 months off[/QUOTE]

How do you get that deal? I got my Ph.D. so I could become a college professor and get the summer off to build guitars, but it hasn't worked out that way. Now they tell me.

I really wish I could go to ASIA, it's no more than 3 hours from here, but the in-laws are coming today, and I have a project at work that is taking longer than my boss wanted, so I'm stuck here at home.

My wife and I own a seasonal restaurant in NH and we work 7 days straight of 5 months 3 weeks with 3 hours off per week. We do 80-90 hours a week. Then we go to Key West for the winters.

I think I could really go for that deal. Hmmmm, my wife is a personal chef. Maybe we could sell guitars as well and have some live entertainment.

Gary[/QUOTE] Interesting, Gary. I grew up in NH, and know somebody who does the same thing, except she winters in Hawaii. I also did restaurant work when I lived there, and am very, very familiar with the 7 day work week.
