Morning folks, coffee in the pots, even foo for those who do (foo). If that's you, enjoy the foo. I hope who every finished the last of the coffee bothered to clean the pots, I didn't. If you can rope 'em, you can eat 'em...........donuts that is. Mind the dragon, he's a little under the weather this morning. First time I've ever seen him sneeze and blow smoke rings and fireballs at the same time.......................from opposite ends.
Mornin, Rick. I was wondering when someone was going to start this.
Just got back from the gym, first time in a week... that virus I had (or whatever it was) took a lot out of me... I've lost 10 pounds since last Saturday. Stomach is still not feeling right.
Short week this week, but long... I leave to go to Okinawa on Wednesday for Career Course, hopefully that will be a lot of fun. Really hot down there, tho.
See ya'll in a bit. I left some cold medicine out for the dragon...

Hmmm? Is this the right place. Only see the big shots in here - - the ones with the big titles. Sort of looks the same - - stuff all over the floor, dragon in the corner - - there is coffee. OK, I will grab some and hope I don't get caught.
Company finally gone for a while - - can get back to normal. Lots of stuff on the Get To Do List that stacked up. Still fun having the family all home for a while - - been too long.
Gotta run - - off to church. Have a great one.

Good morning to all from Paradise. I see that that "all" part is not much of an "all" this morning, but I am sure that it will build as folks roll out of bed.
Not our usual brilliant blue skies today as it is a bit overcast. Hope it becomes more so as we badly need some rain.
Tried the so-called coffee, but spat it out as it leaves a diesel aftertaste.
Going to try for a lazy day today.

Good morning everyone. Mark glad to see that you are feeling better. Amazing how those pesky little stomach viruses can disable someone isn't it?
Off to put a new clutch in my bike.
Have a great day,
Tim

Mornin' all. Sorry i didnt drop by and visit the break room last week. Was a pretty hectic week, this coming week will be to, have lots of tests. Spent all day yesterday rebuilding our fence that the neighbors bull tore down.
So hopefully today will be a pretty relaxed day. Finally got a break in the weather. It has rained the last two days straight. We got 6+ inches.
Sorry to hear that you have been under the weather Hat, glad to hear you are feeling better.

Some of you may get a kick out of a short conversation I had with my ESL wife this morning. Her English is very good, but sometimes it fails.
Her: "I need to go to Home Depot today".
Me: "What do you need?"
Her: "Some ink"
Me: "Ink? You mean you need to go to Office Depot?"
Her: "No, I need ink"
Me: "You can't buy ink at the Home Depot".
Her: "Yes you can."
Me: "What do you need this ink for?"
Her: "For the wood".
Me: "You mean stain and not ink".
Her: "Yes".
On digging further it appears that the Spanish for ink and stain are the same so it is easy to mix it up when translating from Spanish to English. We do sometimes have interesting conversations, not only because of the male/female differences, but also because of the language. Then factor in the cultural differences and life can get confusing fast sometimes.
