Hi Richie! I was wondering where you are? I thought maybe you froze. :wink:

Have an awesome day, all! I'm feeling like a Queen today. :D

Here's one of my favorite queens.

That's not too bad. We've had above 0C temps for the past week.

(What a cool post count! 3639!!)

January thaw here too. Supposed to nice for the next few days, enjoy em while we got em. They sure won't last till spring. A little early for the thaw, maybe we'll get another as well. So hard to do the old sayings anymore, damn weather all over the place, just isn't looking well for the future. They're calling for 61 F tomorrow here and 62 for Tuesday, if those aren't records, they have to be close.

Have some old Foxfire books in the bookshelves/attic, want em? :wink:

I have never watched a football game, but at the gym today I heard that Tennessee will be playing San Diego today in the playoffs. Figured this would be a good time to trash-talk Nan, except I don't know how. But that never held me back before.

I don't know the names of any of the teams, but I figure Tennessee must either be the 'Possums' or the 'Crackheads', and San Diego is probably either the 'Heat' or the 'Big Wind'.

Anyhoo, I have bought myself a beer, and intend to watch my very first football game this afternoon cheering on the Crackheads!! ! Whoo-Hooo!! ! :lol: Go Crackies, Go! :D

My prediction: when the curtain falls on the 7th inning, my Crackheads will be ahead of Nan's Heat by 6 furlongs (assuming airspeed of 3½ knots, and neglecting the coefficient of gravity). :P :twisted:

(...yer mother smelt of elderberries...) :P (...pass the flea powder...)

(...In your spare time cheer for Tennessee's Crackheads! :D Sure winners against the Heat in the World Domination Tour...)

Better keep those! Several chapters devoted to "Making wooden box fans out of split-hickory shingles", "Bee keeping in wintertime", "Building mudshoes when there is no snow for snowshoes", and other such winter lore.

(...how 'bout them Crackheads?!?...)

I love the old Foxfire Books, and used to have them all! I will take them Postie

What I would like to find in the York Emporium some day is the "Golden Book of Crafts And Hobbies" by
Robert Hunt. I already have the "Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments" by Robert Brent


I like your new avatar Merle, it is an apt description of our little project.

You need to find the golden book on Neurology and pass it out. It's obvious many could use it.

I think it's time to head back to my closet. Those clinging so tightly to their ghastly ideas is already irritating me. It's kind of like my opinion of Jerry Springer: I've already accepted that the world is comprised of 80% who belong to the Confederacy of Dunces, it doesn't mean I have to actually see it in action on a daily basis. I'm happy in my ignorance. It serves me well. Ack! They leave a bad taste in my mouth. Plus this is my day to let people have it. I did it at PetSmart this morning and I just did it in the In Depth Adult section (what the heck is that name anyway?). I wonder if I can retire in Belize if I cash out?

Hey ZanneMarie, was your encounter with the same person who is spruiking a blog called "Unlearning Aspergers"? If so, that person was asked whether he/she is affiliated with Scientology. Something about the terminology or expressions used. To my knowledge, this was never answered.

I've heard that alibris.com is a good place to look for rare and out-of-print titles.

Janis was a great queen, blessedmom. Thank you for sharing that! It helped knock some of the occasional rust that collects in certain slots in my addled head, and brought some luster back to the blue notes flowing from my bass.

You truly are a blessedQueen!
