All the news channels out here are reporting that there have been gators roaming the streets. Hope that is nothing more than hype, and that they are not invading your area. They also say you are in for a couple more days of downfall. Keep the Red and Black behemoths out of harms way.

Well it's raining and thundering again now, feeder bands stilllllll.....

And yes Tom, there are gators in the flood waters along the St Johns river as well as other large run-off ponds in the areas that got flooded along the east coast and all, none here though, cause we didn't see the flooding that was seen in areas to the east and north of us, YES those RED and BLACK Behemoths are always in the Wing ready for service........

Along with a couple of these Guys too you know #2035 & #2042....

Could have been worse...at least you didnt end up with your bridges floating to Cuba.

 

Say Vic, where'd this happen and When ??

The original source didnt say where or when but given that the track crossties are concrete it had to be near some urban center, I'm almost 99% sure this was a washout back in '05 when we got record rainfall out west.

Yeh, the wine left my diet some 30 years past, the salt and chili powders went away over 20 years ago.  I do get biscuits and gravey once a year, but have to take 5 "supplemental pills" before during and after the once a year breakfask meeting.  Regular tap water has way too much salt anymore, can you imagine how bland (totally tasteless) distilled water tastes?

[GearDrivenSteam]

I say eat what tastes good and die happy.

EIIL,

What you do there?

Toad

[vsmith]

Gear, thats kinda like my Mantra, "Eat Well, Stay Fit, Die Anyway" 

Yeah thats gotta stink, Toad

I was borderline Diabetic last time I was tested, so I dropped alot of bad habits, Diet Sodas more fruits greens and salads, very little fast food - if any, and smaller serving portions. I found the local supermarket sells these dietary flavored waters that are pretty tasty, so I've been guzzling them during this hot summer instead of Pepsi's or Mountain Dews, so far its working, I've dropped 15 lbs, I'd drop more if I could get out and hammer on my mountain bike again, but time and Home Improvement wait for no man.
