It’s back in the 1800′s and a mine owner is hiring new workers. A German steps up and says, “I can pick gold faster than any man alive.” The owner hires him on the spot.
A Russian wanders up and says, “I can load gold faster than any man alive.” The owner can’t believe his good fortune and hires this man too.
A Chinese man walks up and asks for a job. The owner is so elated about hiring the other two men he says, “Well, if these other two men work as good as they say I won’t need any more help, but I’ll put you in charge of supplies.”
The next day the owner goes and checks on his new workers, and sure enough, the German is picking gold at an unbelievable rate.
The Russian is loading it as fast as the other workers can haul it out.
He looks around and can’t find the Chinese man anywhere.
He begins to walk around the mine to find him and just as he rounds a dark corner the Asian jumps out from behind a rock and yells, “SUPPLIES!”

hey jon- hows it going ?
dstych — holy crap, man, it has been a long time.
Things are going good here. We’re living in Sacto now. Bought a house about a year and a half ago. I’m working at Intel now. Still doing the geek thing.
How are you? What are you up to now? Where are you living?
Good to hear from you, man. Take it easy.
