Good thing I'm an adventurous sort. The Glenn freeway wasn't bad except for dodging all the vehicles being blown around. The highway end of it were I live was entertaining to say the least. But, I made it home. The power went out and snowed a foot last night. Add that to the snow that didn't get plowed out of my driveway yesterday and,,,,nuts. After a few tries the old dog started so the wife and I started digging a ramp. Got to the end of the driveway only to find a tree. Though out the chain saw. Well, made it to work about an hour and a half late. The boss asked what took you with a grin on his face. I told him the dog ate my alarm clock and I had to wait for him to poo so I could turn it off. Sense the wife can't get out I'm gunna have to go grocery shopping tonight. Yuck!

Sweet. Sausageman



Just took a quicktrip to WallyWorld. It wasn't too crazy yet. Just old timers so the place was moving pretty slow. Picked up a Rubik's cube and Scrabble for us. This family will workout their brains whether they like it or not.

Don't think my wifes going to let me go to Anchorage by myself anymore.


I think my wife is still a little irritated at me.


Wait a sec, If my car hadnt been weighted down with all this stuff I got at Costo I probably would have been killed. Ha!! Thats what I will tell my wife, she wont think I'm such an idiot now!

Ok, out to the garage. Gotta finish unloading so I can play with the new gen set.
So were the matches.

Still, I can't imagine why.

Good luck Jose'.

Don't play with it, just hook it up. You know how fragile those generators are.

Wind is blowing, lights are flickering and I dont have anywhere to go. Its going to be a good night.
Unless she wants ice cream to go with the pickles.

Maybe, maybe not.

Morning. Frustrated today. Stepson downloaded a virus onto the laptop and the recovery isn't going well. I bought new disks for this thing in the past, put them in the computer bag. Just found out this morning that the wife loaned the bag to her nephew so it'll be MIA forever. She claims she has the disks. I asked about all the cables and extras that were in the bag, all I got was silence. I'm not happy!

Her mouth was silent, her brain was cursing.


Hope the laptop recovery gets better. I can still feel the frustration of the blue screen of death from earlier this year. The death of a laptop is never an enjoyable experience no matter the killer.

Thanks Shorts, I'll get ahead of the virus sooner or later. I just hate having to spend the time when it was all preventable. As far as her brain cussing, she's just mad because she got caught giving away something that didn't belong to her.

I dunno why you'd think it tastes any different from any other day... I use the same grounds for at least 10 days. When I start to notice some of it missing, I just add more.

No sir, not I. I don't know you well enough to criticize, make fun of and generally degrade you yet. That may soon change...

If anyone else had said that, I'd be thinking food. From you it just sounds dirty. See? Told'ya it would change!

Afternoon all.

Anybody see what happened to that bowl of dual base Nitrocellulose/Nitroglycerin smokeless powder I had sitting on the counter?

It looks kinda like coffee grounds and I was going to load some custom shells for my 300Wby this afternoon.......

A little while ago, I used to get hungry when Tallguy67 was around, lately, he and Bark gets me a little scared, I´m not sure how to reverse that...

Totallyrad: you know, mistaking is just human, real chaos needs computerpower.

Christmas is getting closer, no snow on the forecast, heard on the radio today that on average we get a white christmas every 13 years, now we´ve had 2 in a row( yeah, and what a row) so it might be a while.

Hope Lil Dennis gets it all worked out.

and you all take care outthere, people get nuts this time a year, I´m the fortunate one, I don´t get, I am.

Coffee´s all right Chaikwa, just throw a fair splash of schnaps in it

glad you are home, to work and out again Cougar. cool to know what roads you run, like 'em better in May/June. isn't largest road legal pick up (GM top kick lifted ten inches) for sale, sounds like you sure could use the differential clearance and weight...

Sean, really do NOT think you want a hanging sausage avatar with this crowd...might get a troll excited... try a private label maybe.

Shorts, hehe hit the dollar store for some fun gifts for the adult-but-kid-at-heart folks we will be seeing ...always fun to choose.

did good ran over a mile up hills. half way into trainer session, hurt my ankle.
feel like a loser...soaking my ankle and my pride

actual peppermint coffee was delivered today, sent from North pole AK.
haven't heard from ofc marc, but might have to thank him...

Don't sweat nursing a rolled ankle. Unless you hurt it making a youtube vid for the FAIL! thread Rest it up. Hurts and injuries signal a time to take a little break from workout. You'll be back to it soon, working your tail off like you usually do
