  1. Good luck with that one!
  2. A lot of vehicles are not available in manual here unless you special order, and that runs into money. People always seem surprised when I can not only handle a stick shift (go ahead and say it Bob!) But can also drive a 4 horse trailer. I dont see what the big deal is, but guys always seem surprised when a fat old lady hops down from the cab to deliver a horse. I need to be careful when switching vehicles that I dont mash my foot on the brake pedal in the auto thinking to hit the clutch. I dont buy the extended protection any more. Never fails, issues dont come up till after whatever coverage I have expires.
  3. Right? I could feel my sugar rising just thinking about it. Nope. Couldnt stop at just a spoonful. More willpower than I have!
  4. Honey, some days I dont have the energy to climb up that far!
  5. Pulling your pole sounds like...
  6. Welcome back sweetheart.
  7. PLEASE tell ms that isnt the one just had a baby! I repeat ... Text it to her. My uncle grew Christmas trees for resale. The tree growers association that governed such things posted a maximum price he could ask for cut and baled trees, and trees are an average of 7 to 8 years old before harvest. We planted two trees in late February for every tree harvested, and any trees that were culled my aunt makes wreathes and grave covers. More than makes up for the "waste" of killing a tree. Plus our town collects, chips and compost the trees after the holiday.
  8. I used to do the pick your own following the harvest until the city folks turned it into an outting in the country and the prices skyrocketed. The other day I stopped by the local blueberry farm. They were charging $2 per head to go out into the fields and $3 per pound ( about a pint) for the berries. Or you could by them by the pint in the store there for $3.50 per pint. Local grocery has em for $!.39 per pint. Similar with tomatoes. Why would I go out, do their labor and pay extra if I can go to the local green grocer, pick comfortably standing upright and in an air conditioned room for much less? Think the key word here is "YET"
  9. Well since I live on the east coast all I get are the media reports.
  10. The quake in '89 that burned down half the San Francisco Marina district and collapsed a bridge was only 6.9.
  11. Sounds like damn near a perfect summer day to me!
  12. Well don't just sit there - give him a hand. Or other body part! (Did I just say that out loud? Bad Kitt!)
  13. Key word here is ALL. There is way too much to cram into a little kids mind in regular schooling to cover it all, going to uni you pick and choose what areas you want to go into in depth.
  14. If they taught all this stuff in high school there would be no need for universities.
  15. I am still trying to decide compliment or insult about something my gram said over 30 yrs ago. She told me I drive like a man.
  16. Hey Marty! Nice new pic! Ut=oh. Hey guys, doesn't Bob get enough ideas all on his own????? Quit giving him more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's as it should be!
  17. Sure they do - just contained the way the stuff is supposed to be! But when you guys blow stuff up for a living, I guess it has to get noisy once in a while!
  18. Horrible isnt it? And I work outside.
  19. We have 85* (29*c) and 85 % humidity. To quote the wicked witch of the west, "I'm melting!"
  20. You still have phone booths there?
  21. Lol so now you know why I dont eat squid in restaurants.
  22. Kitt

    life after chemo

    Chemo brain sucks!. I still pull blanks 7 years later, but it does get better and so does the neuropathy. Hang in there.
