I just spent two fun filled days in the horsepistol. I had micro-perf diverticulitis accompanied by a bad kidney infection. Apparently, this had been going on for about a week and I didn't realize what the problem was. I was released late yesterday. I can't recommend it. Don't plan on doing it again. Fired the computer up when I got home last night and my pretty new keyboard toasted my hub. I gave up and went to bed. Glad to be back. Will be making an appointment with a the GI doc I saw in the hospital in the near future.
Rant off.
And it's only Friday.
Hope it goes better for you.

I have several backup keyboards that I've purchased from garage/rummage sales through the years.

I looked at radar and do not see it, but looked at the forecast for there and the freeze after the precipitation (predicted but which I still do not see on radar) has a real chance of making things dicey Sunday if not sooner. This is not as dramatic at this point as my 2015 experience but the forecast is shaping up to make it at least uncomfortable. At best, the power bills next month are going to sting a bit. Especially for Texas due to the regulatory framework there (unless it got fixed, it needed fixing).
The low that's going to cause all the problems is still on the coast of California.

Winter weather alert for basically the entire Bible Belt, from Texas to the Carolinas. Ice storms with probable power outages (some long lasting) and heavy snow is forecast for the area starting tomorrow thru the weekend. Y'all might want to make sure that generator is ready to go! Probably best just to stay home and try to stay warm for the next few days!
Good luck folks.

Somehow, I just can't picture James Garner saying "Well basically, I was on my way to Austria" in Support Your Local Sheriff.
The fact that there is a counter at an airport in Austria for this purpose is testament to how dumb some people are.

I have the funeral homes of the surrounding counties listed on my favorites list and I do review it daily. Primarily to see if friends and acquaintances have passed, but also to see if the parolees that I was responsible for sending to prison are no longer a threat......(And no, I don't live in fear, but I do try to remain informed.....)
You weren't responsible for sending them to prison. Them going to prison is the result of their own bad choices in life.

When I used to receive the newspaper, either actual paper or on line, I used to read the obits everyday. The only newspaper available around here is the Tampa Bay Times. The Times is so far left in ALL of it's so-called news/editorials that I refuse to support them and therefore haven't read the obits in quite some time. Seems like the older one gets, the more I would see acquaintances and friends obits.

I did work at a marina in, of all places, Tarpon Springs Florida. The was a Swedish guy living on a 21' (mol) sailboat that he just bought. I watched him catch a sailcat, gut it, cook it on a grill and eat it. He said he'd eaten them before. He also said he was going to sail that boat to Sweden in a few months. Although it was a death wish in that small, rundown boat, I wished him luck but to me he was clearly off his rocker.

I've never known anyone that would eat Tarpon. Seen some Hammerheads and Bulls eat them while reeling them in but that's the only thing that will eat them. Don't need the internet to tell me that Tarpon are only edible if you're starving.

I suggest a 30 day banishment.

I worked at Sears in the hardware dept for a time when I was 18,( I was also playing in a band,)we had a box in the back with old broken tools and if anyone came in with a Craftsman hand tool that was broke, or chipped or whatever, we gave them a brand new one and threw the old one in the box. Lifetime guarantee on all Craftsman hand tools.
That was back when Craftsman tools were made in the US and were good tools. I went thru many a Craftsman tape measure, returning them as needed. After several years, the quality of the tape measures went downhill steadily until it wasn't worth returning to the Sears just to get another pos tape measure.
For the longest time, I would buy Craftsman tools (screwdrivers, rachets, sockets, wrenches, etc.) at garage sales and return them, if needed, to get a new one. Not any more though. I don't even know if they have a lifetime guarantee on their hand tools now.
I haven't seen a Snap-On or Mac Tools truck in many years around here.

Buddy Ebsen was originally cast as the tin woodsman in The Wizard of Oz, but he was unable to play the role because he was allergic to the makeup used to give the character his metallic appearance!
I've read that they put the silver makeup on him, he had an allergic reaction to it that almost killed him so he, obviously, didn't play the Tin Man role.

There have been instances of legitimate moving companies demanding extra payment, over and above the written contract price, to deliver whatever is in the moving truck or storage. I've read quite a few stories of this happening both moving to Florida and from Florida.
Your daughter can file charges with the proper authorities but the reality is that nothing will happen to the thieves because law enforcement has basically zero chance of apprehension of them. Expensive lesson.

Don't disagree about it generally being a good investment over time. OTOH, when you start dealing with additional expenses in maintenance over the years, as we used to say when I was a Realtor, "Anyone that owns their own home deserves it!" Take that anyway you mean it!
They don't call us home moaners for no reason.
