Nope, you didn't get it wrong. But sometimes, continual dripping is a better strategy than frontal attack.Urizen: Heh, heh. I will not "go gentle into that good night."I prefer "Cry havoc and release the dogs of war."
I probably got it wrong too, didn't I? :/
But the chaos! The blood! The screams of their newly orphaned children!
How could I sleep without those?

BttH?

Just be thankful that your green leafy edible cousins are giving us the Freeport gift to Pathfinder. ;)
Ciao my bruddah from another muddah.
Sure you wouldn't like to have some coffee and stay up with us, Moorluck?

Ugh! More fraggin snow expected starting this evening and going into tomorrow. I can only hope that where I work actually closes. Usually they just enact a policy of "liberal leave" (i.e. you can take leave without having put in a leave slip before hand) but remain open. So if I'd want to stay home because of bad weather, I'd have to take leave. They almost never actually close.
This, unlike our counterpart down in DC. That place closes down if a single snow flake falls on them. Grrr.....
Anyway, my back is oh so looking forward to shoveling another foot or so of snow. Huzzah!
This whole getting up and going to work in the morning thing SUCKS. Soooo Tired. Talk to you guys later. Have a good day. :D
I hear yah Solnes. I get a reprieve this morning, don't have to be to work 'till 10 am and don't have to drive my daughter to school this morning ...Heaven!

lol, I am so not used to this. Hubby usually takes the boy to school and we sleep till at least 8:30. This 6am thing is rough. But hubby has an early appt so I had to get the kids up and dressed and fed and then off to school and sitter and then work.
I hope you have a nice quiet morning!

6am. But hey, I was smart enought to get to bed around 1am rather than 3. ;)
AAAaaand I'm out. Have a good day folks!
*blink*
Ok, I am out the door. You guys have a good one. :D
The neighbor was kind enough to let me borrow his snowblower and it did a lot of work in a short period of time yesterday evening .... and I wake up this morning and look outside .... FRAK!
WHERE'S MY GLOBAL WARMING? I'M DONE SHOVELING!

We're calling it "climate change" these days. :)
Hey all. Another day in class with noting to do except take notes and post here. Oh, and now I'm sick too. Hoo-freakin'-ray.
I loathe politically correct catch phrases.

I loathe politically correct catch phrases.In this case, I don't think it was "politically correct" so much as politically convenient. "Global Warming" just doesn't sound right when you've got record snowfall.
Does not mean it is not changing.
Oh well. Morning all. I am going to go back to sleep now that the kids are off to school.
Okay then. I'm suffering from snow shock. post traumatic snowfall disorder. yep.

Ahhhh! Damn you CJ! You commented before I made my spelling correction! Now my error is preserved for all time. People will mock me.

I'm there for you man.
Mornin' all. So I finished watching Iron Man this morning and I got to say, I am thrilled that a sequel is coming out!
Same here, Urizen. I also dislike how the English language has further eroded because some words just sound like offensive words, even if the meanings are worlds apart.
Hi, S'sA! Sorry you're sick.
And, bleh. Now I'm out.
See ya. But thanks for the sympathy.
Also, where I am is about to be hit by another snowstorm, I'm hoping for a day off from school and then a late start at the least the next day. Come on, come on...

Here's a little something for all those folks currently buried under, or soon to be reburied under many inches of climate change. :)
SNOW!
December 8 6:00 PM
It started to snow. The first snow of the season and the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window watching the huge soft flakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a Grandma Moses print. So romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love snow!
December 9
We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic sight! Can there be a more lovely place in the whole world? Moving here was the best idea I've ever had!
Shoveled for the first time in years and felt like a boy again. I did both our driveway and the sidewalks. This afternoon the snowplow came along and covered up the sidewalks and closed in the driveway, so I got to shovel again. What a perfect life!
December 12
The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a disappointment! My neighbor tells me not to worry- we'll definitely have a white Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we'll have so much snow by the end of winter, that I'll never want to see snow again. I don't think that's possible. Bob is such a nice man, I'm glad he's our neighbor.
December 14
Snow, lovely snow! 8 inches last night. The temperature dropped to -20. The cold makes everything sparkle so. The wind took my breath away, but I warmed up by shoveling the driveway and sidewalks. This is the life! The snowplow came back this afternoon and buried everything again. I didn't realize I would have to do quite this much shoveling, but I'll certainly get back in shape this way. I wish I wouldn't huff and puff so.
December 15
20 inches forecast. Sold my van and bought a 4x4 Blazer. Bought snow tires for the wife's car and 2 extra shovels. Stocked the freezer. The wife wants a wood stove in case the electricity goes out. I think that's silly. We aren't in Alaska, after all.
December 16
Ice storm this morning. Fell on my ass on the ice in the driveway putting down salt. Hurt like hell. The wife laughed for an hour, which I think was very cruel.
December 17
Still way below freezing. Roads are too icy to go anywhere. Electricity was off for 5 hours. I had to pile the blankets on to stay warm. Nothing to do but stare at the wife and try not to irritate her. Guess I should've bought a wood stove, but won't admit it to her. God I hate it when she's right. I can't believe I'm freezing to death in my own living room.
December 20
Electricity is back on, but had another 14 inches of the damn stuff last night. More shoveling! Took all day. The damn snowplow came by twice. Tried to find a neighbor kid to shovel, but they said they're too busy playing hockey. I think they're lying.
Called the only hardware store around to see about buying a snow blower and they're out. Might have another shipment in March. I think they're lying. Bob says I have to shovel or the city will have it done and bill me. I think he's lying.
December 22
Bob was right about a white Christmas because 13 more inches of the white s%*# fell today, and it's so cold, it probably won't melt till August. Took me 45 minutes to get all dressed up to go out to shovel and then I had to piss. By the time I got undressed, pissed and dressed again. I was too tired to shovel. Tried to hire Bob who has a plow on his truck for the rest of the winter, but he says he's too busy. I think the a~!!#@% is lying.
December 23
Only 2 inches of snow today. And it warmed up to 0. The wife wanted me to decorate the front of the house this morning. What is she, nuts?!! Why didn't she tell me to do that a month ago? She says she did but I think she's lying.
December 24
6 inches - Snow packed so hard by snowplow, I broke the shovel. Thought I was having a heart attack. If I ever catch the son of a b@&#@ who drives that snow plow, I'll drag him through the snow by his balls and beat him to death with my broken shovel. I know he hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shoveling and then he comes down the street at a 100 miles an hour and throws snow all over where I've just been! Tonight the wife wanted me to sing Christmas carols with her and open our presents, but I was too busy watching for the damn snowplow.
December 25
Merry f---ing Christmas! 20 more inches of the damn slop tonight - Snowed in. The idea of shoveling makes my blood boil. God, I hate the snow! Then the snowplow driver came by asking for a donation and I hit him over the head with my shovel. The wife says I have a bad attitude. I think she's a fricking idiot. If I have to watch 'It's A Wonderful Life' one more time, I'm going to stuff her into the microwave.
December 26
Still snowed in. Why the hell did I ever move here? It was all HER idea. She's really getting on my nerves.
December 27
Temperature dropped to -30 and the pipes froze; plumber came after 14 hours of waiting for him, he only charged me $1,400 to replace all my pipes.
December 28
Warmed up to above -20. Still snowed in. The b@&#@ is driving me crazy!!!
December 29
10 more inches. Bob says I have to shovel the roof or it could cave in. That's the silliest thing I ever heard. How dumb does he think I am?
December 30
Roof caved in. I beat up the snow plow driver, and now he is suing me for a million dollars, not only for the beating I gave him, but also for trying to shove the broken snow shovel up his ass. The wife went home to her mother. Nine more inches predicted.
December 31
I set fire to what's left of the house. No more shoveling.
January 8
Feel so good. I just love those little white pills they keep giving me. Why am I tied to the bed?
In this case, I don't think it was "politically correct" so much as politically convenient. "Global Warming" just doesn't sound right when you've got record snowfall.
Global Cooling? Perhaps.
If weather trends are indicative I suspect AZ will become a lot more livable of a place during the summer.
Also, where I am is about to be hit by another snowstorm, I'm hoping for a day off from school and then a late start at the least the next day. Come on, come on...Where are you? I'm in Philly.
Weird, I'm in this tiny town just north-west of Philly.
Sadly, I've got to go now. I've got a meeting to try and avoid.
Alright, so long Aber. Perhaps one day I shall walk by you and never know, heh.
Good morning all!!!! I go for training for the new job today!!!! AND...Crazymeds is back!!!! I've got to play the lotto- this day is shaping up wonderfully so far!
Taig, there isn't a McAllisters within 50 miles of my house!! Where are these places, they look like they would provide primo game food!
I hear yah Solnes. I get a reprieve this morning, don't have to be to work 'till 10 am and don't have to drive my daughter to school this morning ...Heaven!

Sure. Just ignore the cries of anguish as innocent lives are snuffed out, 'cause you were too busy to help certain avatars. ;)
Hey Moorluck, do you guys ever use phosgene or hemotoxins for exterminating rodents? What kind of safety precautions do you use to ensure the gas doesn't get into people's homes?
Probably depends on if he likes the people or not.
I started a horror film thread. And drove at least one person nuts. Most folks are busy, but I'm still caffeinating. You?
