Biiiiiiit of trouble dealingwwwiethhhhhh tttttthe keyyyyboarddddd. Thingskkkkkkkkkkkkindaa fffffffuzyyyy.
Kona Ale is pretty good stuff. Wish I could get it on the mainland. It's a lot better than Primo was.
Ain't got in trouble, yet. Been keeping the military police here in donuts.
School going good. Strange being a "fixer" in a class with operators. Interesting discussions tho.
Flash, I will get your son in no more trouble than he is capable of getting into himself. Besides, when you are twice the age of your friends kids, you just can't hang in with them as long. I'll be out of class early tomorrow and hook up with him.
Having weird dreams/flashbacks. Will not go further due to the content.
Shovel would have an organism with all the H-D critters here. Lots of really nice custom bikes. Bunches of time, effort, and money spent on them.
Since it's now 0030 central time, this old phart is going to bed.

Mornin Y'all,,,,,
Tis cool here,,, not too bad,,,,, about 23*F here this morning. Suppose to get around 45* later on today. They're talking about possible rain/sleet/snow for thurs night and Friday. Probably won't get any and that suits me just fine,,,,,,, if it does come,,,, I don't care. I'm taking an extra LooOOoong weekend starting at 0800 and I don't have to be back until Tuesday.
I need to go to DMV this morning and then I'm gonna go do some tire shopping for RATTLIN. I might try to brave some of the department stores for some last minute Christmas gifts for the wife. Only if it looks like I can get in and out without wanting to strangle somebody. God I hate to go in them places,,,,, it seems the animal comes out in everybody!
Y'all have a good one!

Wednesday AM and it seems to be a little warmer this morning.
Most of the snow that fell on Monday is gone, just a little left on the grass.
More snow predicted in the forecast for Friday .

Today's forecast, lazy, with good chance of Power-Nap breaking out by mid-morning. This afternoon,..... continued lazy, with a very good chance of Get-Outta-Dodge before the evening rush hour.

Y'all B safe,

Good morning.

Frozen porch. Nearly fell down. Hope nobody got that on tape. I'm sure TOP saw it from the woods. He's probably still laughing.

Might get ugly weather from the gulf tomorrow. Key word MIGHT. Weatherman just trying to find something interesting to dicuss. They always hype the storms that MIGHT produce SOMETHING. Folks panic, run to store, buy bread milk and eggs and then nothing happens. I think they were 0 for 10 last year. I ain't gonna hold my breath.

Fax on the ready. need . In search of... - JKE

Good Frozen Morning All...

(Yawning) I would love to get some sleep around here... But every was whining about how cold it is... So... I was elected to man the wood stove and keep feeding it through the night.

As I type this PM and look up at the thermometer is only +5*F (-15*C) roughly. I guess that's what happen when you live up here in the back country of Idaho. A least the morning tea / coffee is hotter than outside!

Just for fun I'm going to shoot another pic of the digtal thermometer in the truck... That should be nice and cold for a pic!

Mornin All,

Put salt on my shopping list this morning. 25 deg. here and our slab doesn’t drain well so the water that pooled in front of the stairs froze last night. I went to take the dogs out didn’t notice the ice and busted my butt big time. Good thing I’m hardheaded cause I bounced my head off the bottom stair. Getting back up was fun too. I HATE COLD!!! The forecast is calling for freezing rain Friday I think the dogs will just have to hold it I’m not going out in that crap!

Oh, that makes me feel better.



Y’all have a good one and watch out for that slippery stuff it will make you hurt in places that you didn’t know you had places.

Dang Cold!

I had to run out to the truck to get my camera... Sorry to say it frozen last night in the truck. It still thawing out...

But the multi-function temp guage in my truck showed the temp outside to being 0.2 - 0.4*F!!!! Wow! That's dang cold. Good thing there is no wind chill or I would be in big trouble...

Stay in guys and gals don't go out in this bitter cold! It's not worth it!

For the last few days I have been thinking that many of you were just whiners, but now see that you may have a bit to complain about;
