A cable modems, so fast so sweet. Up here on the Mtn, Chattanooga looks so small, how high i am, and how low is the rest of chattanooga. I can see why the people of the mtn think they're better than the rest of the scum... er chattanooga. I mean they're so much higher than the rest of them... so... so much higher. One thing i love is how if you live on Lookout you say, "I live on the mountain." Where as if you live on Signal or any of the other so called "mountains" of the area you have to specify, "I live on signal mtn... *sigh*" As if they know that their mountain is not the true mountain. I wonder if the mtn folk even say that they are even more spiritual than the rest of chattanooga and the other mountains. I mean they got Lookout Pres the preverbial Mecca of Pres churches and its more reformed and uptight step brother RP. Interesting, the higher the mtn, perhaps the higher the spirtualometer??? Who knows.
I asked the boy if he wanted to play, he said "no" and is playing by himself. I wouldn't wanna play with me either I'd probably sit on a Gi Joe or something crushing the very life out of Commander Duke.
Work is getting more interesting. We finally have a boss, she seems nice. Bosses have never really bothered me one way or another. I usually just do my job and really the only time I've ever had interaction with a boss is when I go up to them, "Hey I've been working here for over a year... can i have like a raise or something??" Which usually ends in me getting a 10 cent an hour raise... or to translate that into corporate lingo, i get two honey roasted peanuts instead of one. Also had my year end appraisal today, overall I guess I'm good. That was my self appraisal. Though since most of my time has been spent in training there's not really much to reflect upon. My job is getting more and more busy as those who used to receive five to ten emails a day from me are now lucky to receive one or two. Though special exception is always the Crabbinator as we always seem to get a good email conversation going. Roe's emails usually consist of him claiming that I am some sort of Spaceman, which although true is totally irrelevant.
baker is so cool!!!!

I think it depends what part of Chattanooga you are in at the time that you say "I live on the Mtn." I am from Signal and when people ask, I say "the Mountain." But, thats what I am used to. And a lot of times, I do have to specify. Its funny because eventhough the Mtns. are just across the river from each other, its like they are too different worlds. Such a different "culture" all together. :)

Posted by: Obscene Gene at February 13, 2004 03:42 PMI must say as far as mountains go, i like signal a bit more. Signal has a taco bell and a mcdonalds whereas the people on lookout would assasinate anyone who would attempt to put a fast food chain up here. Signal seems to be more of a friendly environment.

Seriously, though, I like how us Covenant College folks exist within the middle of an elite environment. And a lot of meth labs.
Posted by: Evan Donovan at February 14, 2004 04:51 PMYeah the elite environment doesn't help with the already elitist presbyterian environment at covenant, it just sort of reinforces the bubble and the ego. Also the meth labs don't help either, specially for catacombs... when will they learn meth is not like math, its not logical and not fun.
