Keep up that dosage and your liver and kidneys will be screaming next.

Sounds like a wild ride in the Jeep. Glad y'all weren't hurt.

Yep, wicked cold out in NP today. Had to run out there to pick up the 10yo from a sleepover party. Overhead temp never moved off -40* but I'm sure it was colder than that. ice fog had. Visibility down to 200 feet or so.

Got the new door opener up. Works real well. And quiet too! Big difference from the 25 year old model.

Still cold and looks like it'll stay this way for another week....

My 'attitude'? And just what's wrong with my attitude? Huh? Make another mess in the restroom like you did last night and you'll see 'attitude'!

Sorry. But a spider surprised me and made me break into a dance just at the wrong moment.

In that one picture is a sign that says "Sewer Hose" directly over you. Thats better than "Jar Head". (Tonight I am easily entertained).

Mad, looks like you're getting ready to take a trip. I know the 5er isn't yours because it's hooked to a Ferd. Is the Jayco yours or a friends?

Evening all. Everyone ready for Monday?

Wow, dead in here tonight. Where's the night shift? Sleeping on the job? Maybe the smell of a fresh pot of coffee will wake them up.

See y'all in the AM

Good picture ofcmarc. With the older film cameras you had to keep em shoved down your pants to keep them warm enough to work.
Hope its not the same with these newer ones (got some strange pictures with the old ones).

I’m getting the heck out of here.

Well, I’m so anxious to leave I packed our bags last night.
Heading out the door for the Anchorage leg of the trip.
Than it’s a flight to Seattle for the birth of our first Grandson.

Didn’t tell the couple who are housesitting about the shrew problem.
If they hear voices in the night it’s not my fault.

Speaking of which, I think a may have won my battle against the shrews
because I haven’t seen a single one since yesterday.
They are soooo stupid.
Never should have tried matching wits with me.

Anyway, see you in a few weeks.
Good bye shrews, hello warmer weather.

Stupid luggage is heavier than I thought.
Wife must have put some extra stuff in them.

Morning all.


MONDAY, JANUARY 30th:

1798 - The first brawl in the U.S. House of Representatives took place. Congressmen Matthew Lyon and Roger Griswold fought on the House floor.

1844 - Richard Theodore Greener became the first African American to graduate from Harvard University.

1847 - The town of Yerba Buena was renamed San Francisco.

1862 - The U.S. Navy's first ironclad warship, the "Monitor", was launched.

1894 - C.B. King received a patent for the pneumatic hammer. A relation to someone who frequents the breakroom perhaps?

1911 - The first airplane rescue at sea was made by the destroyer "Terry." Pilot James McCurdy was forced to land in the ocean about 10 miles from Havana, Cuba.

1933 - Adolf Hitler was named the German Chancellor.

1958 - The first two-way moving sidewalk was put in service at Love Field in Dallas, TX. The length of the walkway through the airport was 1,435 feet.

1962 - Two members of the "Flying Wallendas" high-wire act were killed when their seven-person pyramid collapsed during a performance in Detroit, MI.

1964 - January 30 - The U.S. launched Ranger 6. The unmanned spacecraft carried television cameras and was intentionally crash-landed on the moon. The cameras did not return any pictures to Earth.

1968 - The Tet Offensive began as Communist forces launched surprise attacks against South Vietnamese provincial capitals.

1995 - The U.N. Security Council authorized the deployment of a 6,000-member U.N. peace-keeping contingent to assume security responsibilities in Haiti from U.S. forces.

2002 - Japan's last coal mine was closed. The closures were due to high production costs and cheap imports.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.

Coffee's on.
