1971 - NASA Astronaut Alan B. Shepard used a six-iron that he had brought inside his spacecraft and swung at three golf ***** on the surface of the moon.

1972 - Over 500,000 pieces of irate mail arrived at the mail room of CBS-TV, when word leaked out that an edited-for-TV version of the X-rated movie, "The Demand," would be shown.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it.

Coffee's on.

So... how was the service there, Scott?

Mornin. Didn't want to get up this morning, running a few minutes behind. Maybe I should put the coffee pot in my room?

Hope everyone has a great day.

I added a new chemical called [censored] to the Pho0o Pot through the night.
So far the corrosion has stayed contained within the ph0o0 Pot. It foams lots and does burn the eyes some...I think its a nice blend. Has a sweet taste and will not freeze.



For lunch I am cooking a lovely Shrew and cauliflower cream soup. Hopefully I can strain out all the fur.

The smell didn't bother me, I had to dice the onions for the chili yesterday. As far as the soup.........I'll have a PBJ, but thanks for offering.

Morning characters, warm morning at 27°. Yes, I didn't watch the tidy bowl. Still working on last weeks snow removal. Used my old 91 to knock the berms down and push them back. Hopefully the land lord will show up with a new well pump today. Even though it has warmed up, it's still freezing in the outhouse.

You didn't miss a whole lot really, either the game or the commercials. I was disappointed in the commercials this year. There was not as many humorous ones. There were a few, Doritos come to mind, but not many. I think Coke had too many spots with the polar bears, they were cute, but not that great. I hoped to see more Budweiser commercials. They usually have a great mix of inspirational and humor, but they really only ran one, the time period one set for the end of prohibition.

The techie phone, financial or energy based ads were lame and boring. The car ads were pretty drab too. Even the one with the skydiving car. They went for wow affect but really with shows like Fear Factor and Mythbusters, the commercial wasn't spectacular.

I think the commercial many could really side with was the Chevy commercial. At the end one of the buddies didn't make it through the apocalypse and his friend said, "Well, he did drive a Ford"
