OK...I'm game for some 5 Alarm, CW. Headed to the Pepsi Center to catch an Av's pre-season game in our company suite. Should be pretty cool in there, so some 5 Alarm might do the trick to keep warm!

Thanks for the input. Always good to learn about different kinds of food![:)]

That sounds like a good deal for UW- trash day here as well, but the only option I have is to give my recycling to the City of CR.

Breakfast sounds wonderful, bring me a heaping plate! And I'll certainly be back for some of that chili, against the wishes of the better half here.

Good morning everyone! Nice, cool morning here in Louisville. Our high today is
be only about 65-67 degrees. Mutt, thank you for putting the coffee on, and making
the juice.

So that calls for a nice hot breakfast for everyone: the hearty kind with bacon,
sausage, scrambled eggs, biscuits, gravy, oatmeal, toast.

And since it's going to be a cooler day, lunch and supper menus will be:

chilli (mild & 5-alarm)
beef vegetable soup
beef stew and cornbread

Everyone, enjoy your day: Mutt and I will be back in the throes of fall
housecleaning.[:(][xx(]

James, congrats on your first star!!

Wish my issue had come yesterday, or today. Now I'll have to go to work before seeing it.

Jay, from what my sister tells me, the Wisconsin border patrol couldn't catch MC if they wanted to! I hope to be around, though, to assure a fair and impartial investigation.

Hey-I'm awake!!! My November Trains came yesterday. 65th Anniversary of the Magazine which was born just three months before me.

Plan on getting to the Chicago area next week in time to run the mudchicken and the Mrs. through the customs check so they can come up here without stopping at the state line. Mainly have to verify that they are from Colorado. People up here aren't found of those aliens from Illinois. I have to keep my origins secret.

More rain today. Don't mind, but it could have come 6 weeks ago and my lawn woudn't have gotten so brown. Cooler weather follows, and leaves should be turning here soon.

Sorry haven't been on since this morning: Mutt and I are doing fall cleaning
