More like banging it down one too many times to knock the plugged up grass out of the discharge chute....
It's a simple fix - just need a fender washer, which I think I have somewhere in my collection of odd parts.

Hmmm. Laundry and garbology no problem - I haven't turned my whites pink yet, and I usually remember to put the trash bin at the curb on Wednesdays... I even recycle!
Dealing now with a couple of friends who just broke off a relationship. Wouldn't ya know I get a call from the female half.... Fortunately I think they are still more or less amicable, if not friends for the moment.

Larry, just be very careful and not knock over a bottle of bleach in your "other than white"
laundry. (uniforms didn't look good; many years ago)(Ilearned not to put stuff right on the
edge of the washer)
CW's still doing fine, no definitive words yet, looks like another day there.
Nurses did bring her a Birthday cake this morning to celebrate the day.

I'm sorry that I did not get in here early enough this morning to serve breakfast, but I will take the responsibility of cooking dinner for tonight. I am serving spaghetti tonight, and I've got a large pot of my spaghetti sauce simmering here on the stove. If someone else will boil some pasta, and the pasta is sitting here on the counter, my spaghetti sauce will be ready to serve by 5:00 PM, Eastern Standard Time.
There will also be a gallon or two of homemade ice cream for desert.

Dan, I imagine he's wanting a BIG stack of Buttermilk Pancakes!
Mook, you didn't fall in your Coffee Cup again did you? Mookie, Mookie!!
CW SHOULD get "sprung" from being "institutionalized" around Noon today,
have no idea if she'll try to stop in here or not.

Fantastic news Walt, and you are absolutely right about the buttermilk pancakes....
Pancakes and coffee are up! Get 'em while they're hot. I've got a Fiesta in the works for lunch:-Black bean salsa w/chips-Chicken 'n cheese quesadillas-Softshell tacos (beef, beef 'n bean, and chicken)-Sides of Rice and/or beans will be available.
I've been away from this thread for too long...I didn't know that CW was away! My apologies and I hope all goes well in her recovery!
Dan, I'll take a BIG cup of coffee if you can reach my cup.
(it's up there next to Mookies and CW's, but not quite as big.)
CW has been in the hospital since about 4:00am Sat.
The "Fiesta" sounds great, let me contemplate before I order.
(for some reason, I've not had much of an appetite the last several days!)

I've just filled my propane tank and I'm ready to fire up the grill on this glorious 80F day here in Aurora so how about New York Strip Steak's along with baked potato, your choice of green beams or broccoli, salad with your choice of dressing and for dessert how about my bride's delicious eclair cake? After dinner we can sit and chat over a steaming cup of java. How's all that sound?

Jim, That sounds very good, especially the part about "kicking back" after dinner.
reckon we'll see any trains?!

Oh yes, no doubt about seeing trains...I have always dreamt of winning the lottery and building a railfan viewing platform at Eola yard similar to the one at Rochelle with all the luxuries...and that includes LP powered grills and a really good scanner set up...oh, but that all hinges on my winning the really big lottery, doesn't it. Well, I can dream, can't I?
Eola Jim - make sure it is at least 100 feet away from the tracks!
Been busy shuffling papers this morning! We should know next week how they will downsize us, and yet my desk is just as busy as it ever was. Maybe if I get RIF'd I will get a big garbage can and............

First of all, they shouldn't do that to anybody that works as hard as you do.
Now, if you get the Big Gabage Can, are we going to see, or hear from you again?!
FYI to all, CW is home and has been for all of about `10 minutes!
Mutt - I usually land on all my feet....
See those same feet doing a little dance in CW's honor! Welcome home and belated Happy Birthday!
WELCOME HOME C.W.,
BE WELL AND BE HAPPY!
HERE I AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And it is SO GOOD TO BE HOME AGAIN!! Thank you all for the prayers, kind words of concern, and I just want to let you all know how much I appreciate each and every one of you! I have to go see my primary doctor on Friday, and until then, I'll be resting here at home. You can't get much rest in the hospital, what with them coming in to take your vital signs (especially at 2 a.m., and 5 a.m.). You just get to sleep, and here comes someone wanting to take your vitals, or draw blood, or take you to X-Ray, or whatever.
Dan, Ray and Eolafan, I'll have a tiny bit of each of your offerings for supper. Going to be on a "Healthy Heart" diet for awhile (no sodium), so going to have to adjust to that. I have cut way down on my salt intake, but still, some things you eat (like mashed taters), need a little bit of salt, just to flavor them. Guess I'll be using a lot more garlic powder in my cooking, here at home, anyway. And yes, I will try to take things a little bit slower.
Boy, is it good to be back here, and back home!!
We are all pleased you are home. Now with all of the expert cooks here bouts we can take care of the meals. You continue to take care of yourself and just come in here to banter with us as we sneak in from time to time.
