No snow here......no warmth either.


I take that back....there is warmth here. It was almost 100 degrees warmer in the house earlier this morning than outside.

Tweze, Rick & Dave have said everything you need to hear about your ex. You already know what to do. The tough part is to do it.

My grandfather loved to drink. As a kid I had no idea. Only many years after his death did I learn he was often soused. My dad went thru a phase of alcoholism. He has not had a drink in 32 years now.

Morning all. Starting out at 36. No fog just rain. We might see some s*** on Monday. I am hoping they are wrong cause around here everyone goes brain dead when it comes to driving.

We walked to our local Food Lion for some milk about half a mile or so, in the snow, lovely and warm in our snow gear.

Anytime there is a possibility of S*** around here the grocery stores get crazy busy. Everyone wants to get the three whites, milk, bread & toilet paper.

Right now, it's in the 50s/60s and raining at my western outpost. Looks like rain there for the next few days. Sounds a lot better than here in the East.

I was driving to lunch on the highway and saw a car with the most out of balance tire I have ever seen. The front tire was actually jumping up and down so hard it was coming off the ground. The steering wheel had to be shaking violently. I can only guess it has done it so long the shock is toast. It was scary to see that. No way in hell could he have decent control. I sure hope his ball joints blow at low speed and he is taken off the road soon.

Probably like my oldest brother. Doesn't do or fix anything just because it's too much trouble. LAZY!

He drove my Rover with the ABS, Low Coolant, and Temp lights ON for a week without saying anything to me. I only discovered it because I noticed the lights on when he was taking me to my doctor appointment. No idea how long the head gaskets are going to last after that treatment, and when they go, the Rover goes to salvage.

Getting a tire balanced is CHEAP. It was just a dumb ass driver.
