THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio?

Coffee, tea and ph00 are ready. I made muffins. Yes, ME. They're crunchy. You will like them and say nothing but good things about them.

Uh........didn't you just clean the horse stuff out of the spreader last week? I think I'll pass but thanks. These "muffins" look suspiciously like something that might fall out of the south end of a north bound horse.

Morning folks. Lost a great man this weekend, Jack LaLanne passed.

Will's off the vent! His kidneys still haven't restarted yet but we'll take any good news at this point.

Morning folks, -22 here. I have never seen it this cold here, going to a high of 10 so we will be busy with lots and lots of truck calls. I should probably turn on my cell.

The wifes surprise 50th went off without a hitch, lots of friends and family and beer.

Scotty, an update on the Sharp Quattron,

I am still fine tuning the picture but I must say that it is so clear and detailed that at times it looks as though you are at the actual filming of the movie and in 3D. It took a little getting used to but now I really really like it. Even basic digital set at 480P is far superior on this tv. The colors are very rich, some yellows were a little overwhelming at first but with some fine detail tuning I believe I have it right were I like it for now. No regrets with this tv, I would highly recommend it.


Y'all have a great day.

Morning all. JWM's dark night is starting to turn pink on the eastern sky and is already looking like another one of our boringly beautiful, cloudless days here in Paradise. Heading outside to do some work on the RV just as soon as the sun hits it.

Tried one of the muffins and as ordered am proclaiming it good. What the ........ heck is in here anyway? What makes the crunch? Never mind, not sure I want to know anyway. Tastes .....err.....um... oh yeah, good. Experimenting with the ph00.

Hope y'all have a fantastically good day.

Morning

Started my workout sessions this morning at the YMCA. Forgot how much I hated running. 1 mile in 9 minutes (no laughing Madhat). Miss those days of being in shape. Thinking about taking up boxing again. If the knees hold up
