Vampire Hours
I was cleared to drive, so I asked my doctor about getting out and about. I am still being advised to stay away from crowds and sick people. (Yet, I have to go to the hospital almost every week. Isn’t that where a large concentration of sick people congregate?) Until otherwise released, I have resigned myself to what I call vampire hours. If there is an errand to run, I do it after midnight. I figure there are fewer people out at that hour of the night. It has been very interesting to see what goes on in my community during the third shift.I headed to Wal-Mart the first time I ventured out after midnight, but even after midnight the parking lot was full. Last time I was in Wal-Mart it was before school started. It was like going to the United Nations. There were multiple nationalities (and languages) fighting to get notebooks and pencils. I am not sure who is in Wal-Mart at the midnight hour, but the thought of catching a virus from another country crossed my mind, so I drove on.
I drove by Kroger grocery after midnight and there were no cars in the parking lot. I figured it was safe enough. I went in and there was no one in the store. I guess I have missed being out and about. I went up and down every row. It reminded me of when I returned from Korea. I was pretty busy with speaking engagements when I got back to the USA and I had not gone to a grocery store until after I enrolled in seminary. I went to get a quick couple of things at the store, but after two years away for the US and with a VERY limited selection of food for two years, I was in the store for about six hours. Talk about your reverse culture shock.
Now, if I could find an all night barber…

Jeff,
I know sometimes Geralyn cuts her husband's hair. If I'm not mistaken, she puts a bowl on his head first and then carefully cuts around it. Once she's out for the holidays, I am personally volunteering her to come to your house at a late hour, stategically place THE bowl on your crown and cut around it. I mean who's going to see it anyway!!

Nano Superlattice Technology Inc. (OTCBB Symbol: NSLT) is a nanotechnology company engaged in the coating of tools and components with nano structured PVD coatings for high-tech industries.
Nano utilizes Arc Bond Sputtering and Superlattice technology to apply multi-layers of super-hard elemental coatings on an array of precision products to achieve a variety of physical properties. The application of the coating on industrial products is designed to change their physical properties, improving a product's durability, resistance, chemical and physical characteristics as well as performance. Nano's super-hard alloy coating materials were especially developed for printed circuit board drills in response to special market requirements
The cutting of circuit boards causes severe wear on the cutting edge of drills and routers. With the increased miniaturization of personal electronics devices the dimensions of holes and cut aways are currently less than 0.2 mm. Nano coats tools with an ultra thin coating (only a few nanometers in thickness) of nitrides which can have a hardness of up to half that of diamond. This has proven to increase tool life by almost ten times. Nano plans to continue research and development into these techniques due to the vast application range for this type of nanotechnology
We believe that Nano is a company on the move. With today�s steady move towards miniaturization we feel that Nano is a company with the right product at the right time. It is our opinion that an investment in Nano will produce great returns for our readers.
