A colleague just predicted that I will be bitten by a radioactive spider during my Route Surveying exam next semester and be transformed into well-intentioned but utterly ridiculous Surveyor Man.

*flash of light and sudden faded backdrop of stars and stripes blowing slowly in breeze* "STOP! THERE'S A NEST OF SPARROWS IN THAT TREE! Sending your drone up there will DISRUPT THEIR CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS!" [crushes $25k drone with one hand and waits for applause].

On second thought, better keep my identity a secret.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Don't tell anybody. But, some of us are superheroes already. Just ask the clients whose boundaries actually fell precisely where they wanted them to be and NOT where the no account adjoiner thought they were.

Nearly Normal was an EXCEPTIONAL participant on a former forum like this that some here used to enjoy........before it was mongrelized into worthlessness.

As I recall, he was struck one day by a tiny meteorite. He was one of those West Coast types with grand illusions.

Unfortunately I am not that person, though I reckon I'd get on well with anyone who mysteriously disappeared after a tiny meteorite strike 🙂
