Depot Diner & Coffee Shop

[Anonymous]

Anyone seen my Hawaiian shirt? I thought that since it was 81 now I might as well put it on. [:D] [;)] [8D] They predicted 79 as the high but at noon said it might make 80 or even 81. Since it is only about 2:15 I bet we can make 85. We will see.

I have a window or two up and am thinking about raising some more. I had the clothes washer going and the dishwasher so it is nice and warm in here. When the dishwasher hits that drying phase it will be much warmer too.

I have way too much housework to even think about doing anything outside. The dog has spend several period of time outside today and will probally spend some more out there.

March first and 81. WOW [:0] [8] I think Mother Nature has been hitting the bottle. [8] [B)] [:0]

I bought some hamburger meat yesterday and was planning to make a meatloaf today. Since it is this warm I might regroup, but not sure, I must cook it or lose it. [:(] Maybe by 6 or so it will drop down and be some cooler.

Those BLTs sure sound mighty good tho. [;)] [:p] Actually I could use a couple about right now. My hot dogs has worn off already.

Well Duchess has decided it is time for a walk.

Take Care Now

[cherokee woman]

I thought everyone would like the M&M cookies for a change. Been awhile since
I've baked any.

Think supper tonight will be BLTs with chips. We seem to have an abundance of
chips right now. Someone must have bought out all that was in the grocery.[:I]

Got plenty cookies left for dessert tonight. May even get the ice cream out of the
freezer to go with the cookies.

carl
have a safe trip south.M&M cookies? must meen matt & my cookies mookie pass the milk please.
stay safe
Joe

[Mookie]

BC - have a safe trip - (guess I can't say "see you in the fall", since it is the wrong season). Hug the homefolks for me! Sister S, too!

CW - last time I told my girlfriend - in jest , only in jest - it was ok to ship her soon to be ex back to Nebraska, she did! After I got over being totally speechless, (imagine that!) I was and am still thrilled to this day!

[CShaveRR]

If I had just shut up, Mookie would never have emitted that first groan, Jim--no meds needed.

This might be my last visit to the virtual diner for a few days, unless someone wants to share a computer. I'm not sure the pastures will be greener down south (still too early for that?), but things will be unusual and interesting. I definitely won't mind playing the tourist, or the visiting railfan. We also hope to play guest, host, and friend. The umbrellas will be available, if needed.

Lunch sounds yummy today--one trick done often around here is to put the M&Ms into peanut butter cookies, or "forgotten" cookies (which are basically dry meringue).

(Cher, our bologna salad is probably a lot like your ham salad--in looks, anyway!)

Mookie: take the Mutt: he's yours, to lose somewhere in Nebraska[}:)]
Think the Mutt needs to find a writer for himself.

Lunch today: tuna salad sandwiches or ham salad sandwiches w/fries,

Made some M&M cookies this morning for dessert today.

Jim - just uncap the Nyquil and wave it around the room. That would be enough to put me to sleep!

I may have to take the Uncle Carl Show on the road. But we would have to take a 3rd party to play the "straight man"!

That is the good news, now for the bad news. I had my taxes done today. I will be paying "IN" this year. [:(!] [:(!] [:(!] Now I will change the subject before I start shooting customers. [;)] [:o)] [:D]

UH Jim,I thought we had a VERY STRICT -- NO FIREARMS
Policy here !!!!!!!
Can't be going around doing that to our customers !!!![(-D]

Well since all of my guns were stolen years ago I don't have any. [:(] BUT since the police officers all get 1/2 price here in the diner and FREE coffee I could borrow one of their firearms. [:o)] [:p] [:D] But I would only shoot at the "idiot" customers like the one who recently wanted tofu. [:o)] [:I] [:o)]


CW [^]

Yes it was PCH who made the award on TV last night. The winner was someone on the west coast who spoke broken english.


TAXES [:(!]

I wonder if I can make payment with several hammers, a few screwdrivers and some toliet seats? [:D] [:o)] [:D] [:o)] [:D] Everyone remember the email about the happy taxpayer about 6 months ago. [8D]


Mookie [^]

Get well soon. Will a few Advil help that "groan?" Sorry, I don't have anything stronger. I can find some Vicks Niquil if that would help, then you can settle down into the hammock for a nice nap. [:X]

I would love a nap but have way too much housework to do. [:(!] I was off yesterday but half the day was taken up with taxes. [:(] I did some errands and finally grocery shopping so it was a busy day.

Everyone Take Care

[Modelcar]

....Jim, your 77 degrees sounded good for yesterday, we're to get to 60 today. This new month of March can produce wide swings in weather...Transition time. Can be in the 70's here or a foot of snow...{but won't last long}, type of weather. But I'm glad we're out of the "winter stuff" months....and heading to spring time of later this month......

Neither is very likely.

Hey, there was a story several years ago about a ocean diver found at a forest fire. Turned out he was diving in the ocean and one of the helicopters that drops the big water bucket into the ocean and then goes and dumps that water on the fire just happened to scoop him up with the water.

Soooo, better watch out for them sharks. [;)] [:o)] [}:)] [:p] [8D]

[Mookie]

Tree - eat 1/2 cantaloupe each day. It will make your eyes glisten and keep the orange in your coat. It's fantastic!

[tree68]

Taxes - I've "drafted" mine, better get busy and fill in the official forms. Feds owe me, but I owe the state. At least the balance sheet is still positive. I've been in the "We owe HOW much?" situation myself. It's no fun.

I'll have some of that cantaloupe. Not worth buying for the house - I like it, but it can get tiresome, and it doesn't keep once you start on it.

[cherokee woman]

Joe, thank you for putting the coffee on, and making the juice. Only been up
a few minutes. Need the coffee to get me going and fixing breakfast.

Menu this morning: toast, cereal and fresh fruit. Got cantaloupe and
strawberries this morning.

Carl, don't think the rain's to be too heavy. Probably won't be too bad.

[JoeKoh]

good morning
well cw and mutts rain could be our freezing rain tommorow morning.but someone in Lyons ohio(west of toledo yah blink ya miss it) will probably claim their money from florida as they have won the mega millions jackpot.time will tell who won.coffee and juice are on.
stay safe
Joe

[Mookie]

<~> Groan!

[CShaveRR]

Mutt and Cher, you're not painting nearly as rosy a picture as the "five-day" that came with my reservation! It didn't say anything about rain.

Guess I'll have to sing the sad refrain, "Grill of my Dreams..."

[jeaton]

Jim

About taxes. Look at it this way: It is just a matter of paying "IN" sooner or later.

Jay

[blhanel]

Well, I entered that one, and there's no commotion happening around here tonight, so I think it's safe to assume that I didn't win. At least maybe now I'll get a breather from all the e-mails they keep sending me- "We could be coming to your house!"[:P]

[cherokee woman]

Wonder if Jim was referring to Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes.
Seems like it's about time for them to "surprise a winner."

Stan, here's your burgers and your baked tater. Hope you enjoy it.

[BMRR]

Evening Y'all....... ( now there's that southern accent ) Sure would like to try a couple of them burgers and some baked taters.
Jim - Sorry to hear the bad news about the taxes. Been there done that.
I'm glad somebody can win the lottery, we don't have it here in Alabama. If we play, we have to go to Georgia.

Stan.

We got to 64 today,and it's supposed to be in the 70s tomorrow.
Really does make you think that spring is almost here,but,they're
predicting some very "cooler" temps for next week,the "warm" weather
will get here,when it gets here.[:D]

Win the Lottery,[(-D][(-D] I think I've got a much better chance of being hit by

Joe;glad to hear that mamma's injury was no worse than it was,
that's bad enough anyway.

I am sooooo tired. Thank God it is Friday. [;)]

Fried Fish and FF (yes, Matt can have a few) sounds good tonight.

Oh and don't forget to watch the Evening News tonight. Someone is going to win 10 Million dollars and that someone could be you. [:o)] [:I] [:o)]

[cherokee woman]

Going to have more of the lunch menu for supper tonight. Too nice to be eating
indoors. Of course, we'll be back inside in a couple of days: supposed to start
raining here.

Got plenty of the steaks, pork chops, burgers and hotdogs, and "grilled" baked
taters, etc.

[Anonymous]

CW,
I'll take a Steak. Just got home today now I am just relaxing. I am playing Comuter Technision since my Parents comuter keeps crashing.
