Morning Patrick, and all others. Not a bad day so far.....

Liberty's Edge Contributor

Hi, All! Just sipping coffee and starting another Saturday workday. Only 4 more working Saturdays before our major inspection! Not much time to get things done...but not much longer to suffer the stress, either.

I hope all are well. I haven't had time to keep up with the thread, unfortunately.

Cheers!

Hey everybody! Finally getting around to greetings this morning. The humidity is up and the temperature is beginning to increase. Good thing we've got the refreshing taste of an ice cold Coca-Cola </shameless plug>.

Seriously though, we're doing really well so far. Last night the festival was rained out about an hour early and it's been raining off-and-on ever since. We hit a clear patch today and the sun is out, turning the puddles into sources of super-humidity. It is absolutely swimming outside and not so great even with the AC running at full blast.

It looks like a lot of people are trying to come indoors to find some relief, I just hope they find something they want to buy. It looks like a lot of gawkers, but I don't see many at the check out. Hope we're doing alright, I'm busy guarding the office while everyone is up and about. Too many people around, too many valuables.

Festivities won't end until much later tonight. We've been here since 8 AM, we should be here past 10 PM with a pretty steady supply of MILFs... I mean customers.

Sigh, Treppa is gonna kill me.

Somehow, the Terror Birds got me onto Aurochs today. Megafauna that existed until as recently as 1647, it's legacy only exists today in cattle. Heck's Cattle are pretty close though.

I knew about the Horses but not about the Cattle.

That reminds me that I want to work on my Abadon-styled update to the stench kow.

Also, is anyone else getting a weird thing where the url gets corrupted in a response?

As a matter of fact I was.

That's because I bought out all the stock, filled a swimming pool with them, and am currently swimming naked through them. So sorry.

I feel like that would give you papercuts in places you didn't know existed.

King seems to get a pass from editing. Unfortunately, that means a lot of his flaws show up in his more recent books. He can't end a story at all (I'm looking at you, Dark Tower series!)

I still think Misery is absolutely brilliant.

I loved the Dark Tower series. Well about 1/2 half of it. Drawing of the three was pure torture.The Stand as long as it was is great as is Salem's lot

Most everything else though I am pretty Meh about.

So, everybody good?

Can't remember if I shared this, but wife went to visit friends, so I have the day free. One of my original D&D pals is coming over and we're going to do a little gaming.


Good afternoon everyone!

Of course, when she dumped me for another guy she'd been cheating with a few weeks later, she made sure to bring that up that I put her oldest son "in danger" and that was one of the reasons that she was dumping me.

Sounds like she did you a favor by dumping you. Sorry she turned out like that.

Gonna watch Shutter Island with my wife. Back later.

Say, should I be concerned that my daughter is going to be watching a movie just with her boyfriend, while his family is seeing a different movie?

Trust what is that? I remember how I was when I was that age. Trust. No.

I'm sure I was just as bad as any of us were, but I respected a girl's boundaries, especially if her father/family was in the vicinity. A stolen kiss or two, mayhaps a long one, but little else. Then again, that may just be me, and I was never in that situation...*sigh* High school was difficult.

I was at work and got stung by a bee. The one guy in the building who shouldn't get stung, got stung.

I took my epi pen for I was having trouble breathing, paramedics showed up and I woke up in the ER. I was having a seizure for about 30 minutes.

The GM of the place knew about the beehive for 3 WEEKS. He didn't want to do anything about it except tell me to "stay away from that part of the building". Then they spread into our dry storage. And thats where I got stung.

According to the doctor, I very nearly stopped breathing.

I hate bees, and my GM got a mouthful too. He is VERY lucky Jenny didn't go there, she was (is?) probably going to kick his buttocks.

Workers Comp had better be covering you. They give you one jerk reaction and I'd call the board of health to descend on that restaurant to inspect for violations. They won't know what hit them.

Don't joke with another man about pie and it's not present. That's just not kosher. I think it's Bro code # 42, subsection 3.14.

I've lost sight of King after Insomnia. Although the liner notes of Under the Dome looks kinda interesting, though...

The Stand with the additional pages thrown back in that was excised from the original release is definitely my favorite.

United, They Can Battle Back, And Make Him Force His Hand!
Fear, Yes Fear! His End Is Growing Near,
He Didn't Count On Man's Good Faith,

So I had to be the bad guy again.....

My husband and I are moving to Glasgow Scotland next year, we were both looking forward to the big move, the exciting new travel plans and all. However his sister, is now too a point were she can no longer support herself and her 1 year old daughter. We already send quite a bit of money her way, but it now looks she is going to move with us, mainly because we will be both making very good wages and career options. So now we are both to be working toward very good careers with a little girl in the house and his sister Kate. I had to put my foot down and make it conditional, I said that I have no problem helping to raise the child nor helping his sister, but if she is going to be totally financially dependent on us she has to go to school and get training in something to get her a job. I made it very apparent that she is to get into a school program by the end of our first school semester period there, and once she is working she is to find her own place. Even after that point both my husband and I have no problem supplementing her income to make sure everything will be fine, even babysitting when needed. But this this is also our time in our life where we want to have fun and relax, and we shouldn't have to sacrifice all of it.
I wish you luck with this. It sounds like you're doing the right thing.

EDIT: +1 naked dance; it's a good thing I have house to myself.
