On military secret projects the flying device creates an electrical charge moving through the atmosphere that is routed to charge the batteries. Of course, it is a military secret learned from extraterrestrials in exchange for access to people for their anal probe fetish so anybody that suggests it is labeled a kook.

Not any more, it is used to create the plasma stream which turns into a MHD while absorbing radar and reduces friction on the skin so it can do mach 5+ without being detected.

We were supposed to get scattered flurries last night so had the alarm set for 5am so we could sand the bus routes if needed . Got up made a pot of coffee flipped on the porch light......yup about 4 inches worth of flurries and still coming down hard. When the coffee was ready I stuck my cup in the dispenser and glanced at the clock on the coffee machine......3:12.....checked the other clock in the kitchen.....same time.
Just as well as none of the trucks had the plows on and it takes a while to get them on.
Weird day. Snowed off and on all day. Biggest storm ( I'm sorry .....flurries) so far this winter

Good job, get up early so early it is in time to do more than planned.

I remember my first winter in Oklahoma. They forecast up to an inch of snow. It kept coming and they just kept adding to the forecast and we ended up with 8 inches. My poor 914 was dragging the engine mounts in the snow.

It is easier now that Rick has abandoned this thread and we can say snow. Tell him we miss him if you talk yo him.

Rick does not love us anymore and he abandoned us so we can use the word snow now.

morning

They are calling for 4-7 inches of !@^$ tomorrow so we cancelled my son's party. I'd not want my family having an accident on the way here.

The weather can be vastly different between our place and where they live but better safe than sorry.

Happy Saturday, y'all. It must've rained overnight here, and it's still sputtering outside. Way better than s%$@!

Our landscape project is coming along. The hardscape is pretty close to completion. Then on to sod, shrubs, and trees. Can't wait!

I'm currently "enjoying" a pre-colonoscopy diet. Early next week I get the good ol' roto-rooter treatment. Oh joy.

You eating lots of carrots so it colors your insides orange or maybe Welch's grape juice to turn your insides a bright green or even Pepto Bismol to turn everything black!

Party is today now. I called my Mom and told her about the cancellation for tomorrow and she decided they would just come today.

It's not big deal. The house is already clean. I'll do a quick inspection before they arrive and go from there. It's my Mom, after all.

That was darn funny Richard!

Mine is scheduled for early January but I didn't get instructions to eat specific food or not.

Sounds like my last one around 10 years ago. Maybe my GI doc likes a pretty colon that lends itself well to YouTube videos.

This will be my first so maybe that's the difference. I have the packet of documents they sent but I haven't read them all yet. I'll get around to it at some point.

Just remember the doc will put you under orders to fart to get rid of the gas they inflate you with. No time limit on the order. Several years out the order is valid. Let em rip under doctors orders.

G'day guys

Got around to putting up the Christmas tree with the grandkids today.

Also did my final motorcycle course today, I'm officially no longer a learner rider. Woohoo
