It's a bit absurd, really. Anyone else remember when this pipeline went down some years ago? Wilmington actually fared pretty well though that; we have fuel coming in through the port all the time, so we just became a busier distribution point than we had previously been. The tank farm down at...

Mornin', y'all! :frow Hubs and I joke that when the saucer magnolias bloom, that's a signal that we are about to get one more freeze . . . . Yup, right on time. :rolleyes: The blueberries are in full bloom. This is probably going to make a mess for the local strawberry growers; it may put...

The Grammar Police. Duh!:gig

Apparently, it's not a thing that has to happen on consecutive days during his term in office

Why did this make me laugh out loud? Is it because I recognize that we can be pretty dern insufferable at times, and maybe we can all benefit from a good dose of humility? 'Cause it's true, look behind a lot of the anger in this country right now, and what you'll find is embarrassment. Which...

Wow, DL, after working so long and hard on that house, getting it off your "to do" list is going to be such a relief! While Nero took advantage of the destruction in a totally self-centered way, historians have found no evidence that he had anything to do with the fire. Trump, on the other...

:he :he :he :he Just . . . shaking my head. I'm so exasperated with the follyers of a certain entitled egomaniac, I keep thinking a line from a Nazi character in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: "Shoot them. Shoot them all." I don't mean it, of course; nobody deserves to die for that man...

You don't have to experience too many ice storms for the phrase "freezing rain" to give you chills just seeing it. :oops:

Or Italy, Iceland, Australia . . . . :rolleyes: It's already all over the place, so trying to isolate the UK because it has been confirmed there is pure hysteria on the part of the EU (something along the lines of locking the barn door after the horse has already been stolen). A saner solution...

I've heard they have at least one new variant case in California, too.

I have often said my Southern relatives would disown me if they knew some of my dietary dislikes. :oops: In a similar vein:

Yes, and thank you! Well, the brown ones are goats (meant to look like Nubians), the fuzzy white one is an alpaca.

It was only when a change to a carrier that didn't support the flip phone forced me that I went to a smart phone, and I have to admit, there are things that it does that are mighty useful. I no longer wear a watch - the phone replaced that decades ago. As soon as I discover a need for something...

My kids both use "voice to text," mostly to hasten the rate at which they can reply, but it does require some pretty sharp proof-reading skills!

You know they are coming, don't you - the "you're fired" memes?

Kind of interesting . . . .The author of that article assumed that there would be fewer traffic deaths due to fewer people driving, yet I just read an article that said that, while NC has seen about 16% less traffic during the last 6 months, there have been almost 10% more deadly accidents than...

I would guess Splash frizzled Polish.

Mornin', y'all! :frow Thanks for the coffee, DL. While I would never claim to be "skilled," I have done a few small shingling jobs, so I have an idea of what's ahead for your team. I'm sure that getting that off your "to do" list will feel marvelous! I reckon that by now, everyone is aware...

I learned a long time ago that a bunny customer in the yard is worth 4 or 5 on the phone. I also learned to be hardnosed about people asking me if I could hold onto one for them - "if you pay for it up front, I won't sell it, but I've been stuck with rabbits that I could have sold several times...

Just what you needed, right?:he Take care of yourself, hope you get well soon.
