Afternoon, everyone.
LTF, sorry, I forgot that you are also a member of the fairer sex.

Anyone that can haul loads of horse manure around in freezing weather has to be treated with respect.
Chris, looks like that airsoft minigun could do serious damage to a human body. What are the regulations on selling those things?
David, I can see you experience showing the proper humility when you've insulted a woman.

Sandy's much too nice to give you as much grief as we do.
Tom, it sure seems like your kids have been sick a lot lately. I hope they start doing better soon.
Barry, that's one reason the cats are never allowed in the basement. They would think the layout was a big cat toy I made just for them. Sounds like the infrastructure up there needs some work. Maybe the Canadian government needs to start a pipe replacement stimulus program.

I did a lot of my work from my home office when I was a consultant. I had a rule that, if the office door was closed, I was at work, and don't bother me unless the house was on fire. It worked out fine once everyone got that rule down pat.
Rex, never having seen Flo, I can only assume she's a female but, with no real evidence of such, one can never tell nowadays.

I think you'll be really pleased with the new monitor and it sounds like a good price. Monitors are almost like computers now. I think they are all made at the same three factories in China and there's really not much difference except for various geegaws they add on to get you to pay more. I do indeed feel like I'm back in Cleveland. It was actually warmer in Cleveland last night than it was here.
Jeffrey, glad to hear that the computer turned out to be an easy fix...if you know what you're doing.

Good to hear the wound sucker is doing its job too.
Bob, I went to one of the Soldiers of Fortune type things about 15 years ago. There are some seriously disturbed people there. Great place to look at guns though. One guy had a half track with quad 50's mounted on it. I'm assuming he must have been a Federal Firearms Dealer since they were fully functional. He had some tapes of things he's taken apart with it, including literally destroying an entire barn that was scheduled for demolition. The whole structure was on the ground in about 15 seconds.

BTW, what do you know about the S&W .500 handguns. I saw one yesterday, and it looked like one mean gun, although the kick must be tremendous. It was a chrome 8 inch barrel and going for $1400. With ammo at about $2 a round, you won't be doing much plinking with it either.
It's sunny today with a temperature of 41 after a low of 17 this morning. Things start to get dicey tomorrow as we get more moisture return from the Gulf to moderate temperatures a bit as a big low begins to dive south from the Plains. It looks like our temperatures will hit the mid 40's tomorrow and then be between 33 and 37 when the moisture gets here, early Thursday, the perfect setup of an ice storm. It will turn to all snow by late afternoon. Dianna just laughed when I asked if they sell snow shovels down here.

The 4WD may get a workout this weekend if we are to get anywhere. The worst part is that next week looks just as cold, with another round of ice and snow around Wednesday. This is starting to get really old.
