Evenin, DTR. Imagine the children fighting over opening the breakroom thread...

DTR Ma, thanks for the goodies. Angie sent the recipie... I hear that we are going to nevada? How about I just send the kids with you, and me and Angie move away and see how long it takes you to find us?

I'm the stranger now... get busy for a few weeks, and I'm the new guy.

Went to FL this weekend to see my old grandparents, my grandpa is ok, but he's gettin close to kickin the bucket... I try to spend all the time I can with him... He liked to have worked me to death this weekend! I think that he thinks that I am still in fence building and cowboy shape like I was 10 years ago...

I've been sick, but I'm gettin better. Nothing compared to what the janitor looks like... now that's a terminal case!!! Hey, Scotty, when you sailed over on the mayflower, did you row on port side, or starboard?
That's ok, buddy, I'm gettin older, too. Gonna turn the ol 2-7 soon... when do you start getting social security?

Hope everyone is doing well.

Oh, BTW, diesel is 4.24 in north FL... !!

backstrap sounds better than chicken.

I only tend to overcook pork chops and thats mostly because my wife buys the really thin ones.

State Regulations: None, except in the esteemed State of Louisiana, where coffee appreciation is a birth right and art form, so anything weaker than Community Coffee is generally and publicly unacceptable. You can visit with your own can of "Chock Full of Nuts" which is a good second choice, but you might have to negotiate entry as long as you don’t tell Boudreaux, King of the Krewe of Coffee Aficionados in Sportman's Paradise, who can be sighted each Mardi Gras tossing coffee beans with his beads and dubloons on Canal Street and wishes to keep the State's well-earned reputation of culinary experts.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Make iced coffee or ask your secretary to get it.
Ventilation: Keep all windows shut when brewing, otherwise you’ll ruin the effect with the eggs and bacon.

Respiratory Protection: ditto on ventilation
Protective Clothing/Equipment: Make sure you put a coffee filter in the machine, unless you have digestive problems, then if so, leave it out.
Safety Stations: Put a paper towel under your cup so you don’t leave a ring on the counter or your table. If you want to impress you boss or a client, disregard this so they will think you stayed up late and being sloppy is okay; at least you did the job.
Contaminated Equipment: Keep if you were on an airline or at a fast food restaurant…might need evidence.

Section 9 - Special Precautions and Comments
Handling Precautions: Buy a bigger scoop at the grocery store. The ones that come in the containers are never big enough.
Storage Requirements: Buy bigger discount cans at discount stores and fill up smaller cans as needed. Don’t play a prank on the pipe smoking uncle by storing in his pouch. He might fly around when you’re visiting.

DOT Transportation Data (49 CFR 172.101):

Packaging Authorizations Bulk Packaging: Best not to pack it with shipments by yacht or small water craft from Colombia.
Quantity Limitations
a) Passenger, Aircraft, or Railcar: Must have supplies enough for 5 times the flight or trip, otherwise the pilot or engineer could turn back without a moments notice.

Vessel Stowage Requirements
a) Vessel Stowage: Make sure it is in plain view, so the above doesn’t occur.

Evening. Quick post to check in and say hello. Had a good weekend. Worked yesterday, then went out to my brothers house and bbq'd, had some beers and enjoyed company with friends. I cleaned house in poker. So that was a GOOD thing too I stayed out there last night and we got up early, saddled the horses and went for a ride out in the mountains a few miles from the house. Got back and then went to watch some of the Junior rodeo. All in all, a good day and a great weekend. One more day off and it's gonna be a busy one.

have a good night all.

On the contrary. There's nothing in there that wasn't there before he posted it! In fact, I don't think that MSDS was for MY coffee... the listed brand has virtually no reactivity! And, after tasting this morning's coffee, I can see why it has no reactivity... no taste either.

Another glorious Monday in the making. Monday should last all week!
