Here in Florida we try to build 'Sand Goblins'. It just doesn't have the same effect.

Star seems to enjoy them.

Above freezing all week this week. Nice to be out on the ramp in a hoodie in January.

It was so warm in Alabama this week I pressure washed the front steps, brick light posts, and the front walk.

I remember days of sideways rain and below freezing temps, with four layers of clothes...the best piece of clothing in my United wardrobe was my all-weather jacket. I still have it because it's so awesome. I rarely if ever need to use it these days, but when I do...

you drink Dos Equis?
Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

That beer sucks without a lime. Tastes GREAT with lime, but otherwise...barf.

84 Degrees in my Florida back-yard right now with sunshine and birds singing. It's great to sit and look at. Because in Florida, you sure can't go anywhere for all the Snowbirds on the road. They flock to Wal-Mart in the morning and 'Early-Bird Specials' in the afternoon.

41 and 75 are virtual parking lots from January through March.  I read a stat ~25 years ago that said Fort Myers went from a town of ~50,000 in the summer to ~500,000 in the winter.  And forget trying to get to any of the beaches: Bonita, Ft. Myers, Sanibel, Longboat Key, etc.

Too true MD. But despite the complaining, which is a Native Floridian Right, they support so many people's jobs and salaries, including mine, they're a blessing to us all. And some aren't too bad to actually, you know, be friendly to. To a limit of course.  :peace:
