Greetings from up here eh. I am staying close to home with this dang cold I caught. Might go to work tomorrow.
The forecast for here is something I have never seen or heard of...5CM of ice pellets.
I have seen ice crystals and ice fog but not ice pellets. I foresee people getting knocked down by large pieces of ice falling from the sky.
Maybe Chicken Little will be running around out there too.

It's kinda like a football game. It might have been a close one but all that goes in the book is who won.

Ran into them in Donner pass last year. They bounce more than hail. Friends we were traveling with were taking a walk and got caught in a large storm of them. On the radio he was yelling "its raining ice" and wanted a ride. The rest of us got into a debate on the radio about whether it could rain ice or snow ice and were too busy arguing to pick them up.

I'm not upset at all, I have no reason to be, I'm from the NORTH, remember?

Here ya go; 603-278-5404, ask for Charlie. He's the general manager. Or at least WAS the last I knew.



Morning all.

Today is Wednesday, December 8th. Only 16 days and 16 hours to go 'til Christmas!

On this day in 1765 - Eli Whitney was born in Westboro, MA. Whitney invented the cotton gin and developed the concept of mass-production of interchangeable parts. As you'll notice, another brilliant mind that comes from the NORTH!

1776 - George Washington's retreating army in the American Revolution crossed the Delaware River from New Jersey to Pennsylvania.

1854 - Pope Pius IX proclaimed the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. The theory holds that Mary, mother of Jesus, was free of original sin from the moment she was conceived.

1863 - U.S. President Abraham Lincoln announced his plan for the Reconstruction of the South. After their defeat by the NORTH!

1886 - At a convention of union leaders in Columbus, OH, the American Federation of Labor was founded.

1941 - The United States entered World War II when it declared war against Japan. The act came one day after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Britain and Canada also declared war on Japan.

1952 - On the show "I Love Lucy," a pregnancy was acknowledged in a TV show for the first time.

1982 - Norman D. Mayer demanding an end to nuclear weapons held the Washington Monument hostage. He threatened to blow it up with explosives he claimed were inside a van. 10 hours later he was shot to death by police.

1984 - In Roanoke, Virginia, a jury found Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt innocent of libeling Reverend Jerry Falwell with a parody advertisement. However Falwell was awarded $200,000 for emotional distress.

1987 - U.S. President Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev signed a treaty agreeing to destroy their nations' arsenals of intermediate-range nuclear missiles.

1991 - Russia, Byelorussia and Ukraine declared the Soviet national government to be dead. They forged a new alliance to be known as the Commonwealth of Independent States. The act was denounced by Russian President Gorbachev as unconstitutional.

1992 - Americans got to see live television coverage of U.S. troops landing on the beaches of Somalia during Operation Restore Hope. (Due to the time difference, it was December 9 in Somalia.)

1993 - U.S. President Clinton signed into law the North American Free Trade Agreement.

1998 - The FBI opened its files on Frank Sinatra to the public. The file contained over 1,300 pages.

1999 - In Memphis, TN, a jury found that Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. had been the victim of a vast murder conspiracy, not a lone assassin.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Why are builders afraid to have a 13th floor but book publishers aren't afraid to have a Chapter 11?

I got the ph00 phor Bob and tea for Claude, seeing as how *SOMEONE* forgot it this morning!

I don't understand. The less you break down the longer the trip? I guess a little subversive action is in order to improve your mood.
