Mornin' Bill! Don't thing my Doc would want me eating either of those breakfasts, so I'l have both. If my scales are correct, I am down a few pounds anyway. (YES!!!!!)
Mornin' Luc! Coffee smells good this morning.
Fergie, this is a tough time of life for you. I have spent 4 of the last 5 years dealing with family issues (my Dad passed away 5 years ago, and my Mom died a little over a year ago). Most of my friends that are around my age have also been occupied with issues that are similar. All I can tell you is that time will pass............ Hope your dad will recover and be able to enjoy life for a long time and your wife's therapy for her arms goes well and she gets rid of the pain. You and your family are in my prayers. You need to do some hobby work, that time spent will help a lot to keep your own sanity during this time. (Ask me how I know......) Good luck!

OldGettysk, In Geneva we actually used to have a podiatrist named..... Are you ready?......... Dr. Foote.
I got an e-mail from my sister-in-law this morning that said if I wanted any of that black walnut tree, I better hurry as her husband had spread the word at work and some people were going to get some. My other brother-in-law who heats with wood and coal had already gotten two pick up loads for himself. I got there after a dentist appointment early afternoon to find most of the pile (about 7 or 8 facecords) gone. I did get two pickup loads of the large rounds that they probably couldn't lift. Had to use a couple of 2 X 4s and roll them up into the truck. I'm not a happy man! I was hoping to have all the wood I would need for next winter as this would be too green to burn this year.

Hi all! Just stopping by for a quick cup and to check-in.
Nothing much going on at this end other than building a few structure kits. The boss lady has me catching up on all the put-offs that I managed to stackup over the summer. She said that I can't use the excuse that "..it is too Hot!" any more. (I still think it's too hot

Oh hey, I decided to announce, I have a "multi-room selector area" in my apartment. Its WAY to short to be considered a hallway, and connects the livingroom, bathroom & computer room, plus has a "pantry" type area & a closet. All in about 5'.
Wal*mart training is BORING, worse then the military!

A passenger in a taxi leaned over to ask the driver a question and tapped him on the shoulder.
The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a bus, drove up over the curb, snapped-off a fire hydrant and stopped just inches from a large plate glass window.
For a few moments, everything was silent in the cab, and then the still shaking driver said, "I'm sorry but you scared the HELL out of me."
The frightened passenger apologized to the driver and said he didn't realize a mere tap on the shoulder could frighten him so much.
The driver replied, "No, no, I'm sorry, it's entirely my fault. Today is my first day driving a cab. I've been driving a hearse for the last 25 years."
