It's cold, snowing and blowing here today. 10 degrees wind chill. We have about 5-6 inches on the ground with predictions of the same until 7pm. *sigh, winter is here.

Hey! I resemble those remarks. Heh heh... Gonna pass that one along.

MuhhHahaha

Sprawled in his recliner, tired and achy after three days of nearly nonstop work, James Ward hardly looks like Santa Claus. But this laid-off truck driver has just made Christmas brighter for thousands of U.S. service members overseas by mailing them miniature, live spruce trees with all the holiday trimmings. A year after Ward started Operation Christmas Tree to cheer up his deployed stepdaughter and a few dozen of her fellow soldiers in Iraq, the project has blossomed into a national campaign that shipped 5,000 potted trees this season. About 2,200 of the 2-foot trees _ packed along with bag

Hummm, I'd call that Physical Therapy...

OUCH! Dang, shoulder injuries are painful. Wishing for the best.

WOW! From the pics, it's still snowing...

Here's a bad omen... Here we go.

WeeeHaa! Glad to see ya back, bearskin. Big bummer with all the troubles. May peace go with your wife.

Get yerself a BFH and a prybar.... :-)

Ohh man, you really live in a "lake effect" snow belt. So sowwy, TT75. I'll admit I want a nice white Christmas, but only because the lights look so nice. Besides, I have a nice, strong, healthy hubby to do the shoveling. Heh heh... I even bought him his own snow shovel when he arrived here from the UK. Winter is here and I'm getting into the spirit.

I noticed our friend Pat hasn't been around for quite a while. You're missed my friend. I hope all is well. Battered Pacific Northwest

IE7? Huh? I can't stand it, and use FF. Sweet Brit has been using IE7 because he has to fix machines with it. Not me, uhuhh...

This is sooo kewl. Looky here

Salt, Shanenin, salt. Enough to drill into the surface and loosen it.

Duh0!

*snowdancing* I love snow!

It stinks, we will never see $2 gas again.

Congrats, young man. I agree with Pete, it is a REAL honor.

I was thinking the same thing about a string 8 m long. How about a motor from Legos to wind up the string? Doesn't Legos make a powered car kit? Good luck! Yep, they do

Oh dear! Please don't do that to your nice truck... I've seen a few on the road around here with grass and mud sticking outta the strangest places. Like the windshield chrome and door handles. BYW, that mud scratches to paint. Heh heh...

If there was a free, easy way to send a message of support directly to troops for Thanksgiving would you do it? Yes? Well, get out your cell phone. The Department of Defense is offering an instant text messaging service to put Americans in touch with U.S. soldiers who are protecting them abroad during the holiday season. Those who wish to participate can send a free text message to say thanks to 89279 and will immediately get a response from a soldier on their phone. (I did it and received five heartfelt responses within a few minutes.) This free texting service is provided through AT&T, V

I agree with you, JD. The alkaline also last much longer with a long drain. Lithium-ion seems to be the answer, but they die on the shelf. So you can't buy a backup for use a year or two from now. (like for a camera)
