HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WALT (MUTT)!! [bday
Hope it's an extremely good day for you. I know the weather will be cooperating today, with a sunny high of about 74 this afternoon, for your birthday bike ride!
Joe, thank you for taking care of breakfast this morning. Those cinnamon rolls sure do look good, and that's one of Walt's favorite things to have for breakfast, I do believe.
Everyone have a very good Sunday morning, be safe to those heading out to Church this morning, going to work, railfanning, or whatever you have lined up for this morning. Take care, and I'll see you all later.
Good morning

grampaw pettiboneI have to gig you on the quote. At one time, it was very famous. Unless Denver incorporated it into a song, and if he did, he borrowed it. Any takers? Quentin? Johnny?

Well Tom, if he didn't write it, he sure did perform it; one of my first 8-track tapes had that song on it.
Q, Not belated;(just yet) 8 Nov.)
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
Quentin and Johnny are correct. The Major Bowes original Amateur Hour ran from 1934 through 1952 on radio. The major died in 1946 and his announcer, Ted Mack took the show over and ran it until 1952, then took it to TV as the Ted Mack Original Amateur Hour until about 1970. Him I remember. The phrase was concerning a wheel of fortune spin at the beginning of the show. Now you know the rest of the story!

grampaw pettiboneHappy birthday Mutt, even if it is early. Nice day in Carolina, cloudy and 67 degrees. Tonight is BBQ ribs and seafood night, so won't be in later. Paula, I can't help with the decorations, too gimped up, but will be glad to supervise.... Who remembers ROUND AND ROUND SHE GOES, AND WHERE SHE STOPS NOBODY KNOWS? Everybody stay warm and safe

Tom, Thanks for the "Well Wishes" ; today has been very good weatherwise and Otherwise! It was very great to see my Sis for awhile. Even though we don't live that far apart, (120miles) it's still very hard to schedule things due to different life styles.
And I do remember that quote; sort of reminds me of how people live and take life, before and after injuries. Or as I can remember it better as a song that John Denver wrote and sang; "Some Days Are Diamonds, Some Days are Stone". Today has been a "Diamond Day", hope tomorrow is also so we can get a decent bike ride in. (and get a bit of Railfanning in also!!)
CW is out for a few right now, so I guess I'll go ahead a put out the Pizzas for tonight.
We'll be having the usual; Hawaian, Supreme, Extra Cheese, Extra Mushroom and whatever else is back in the kitchen.
Good afternoon, everyone. Sorry about getting in here so late. But we've been pretty busy here around the house. Getting ready for 'company': Mutt's sister is on her way down here from Northern Kentucky, and we'll be celebrating Mutt's birthday a day early. Could I have some help getting birthday decorations up this afternoon, or tonight?
Joe, thanks for taking care of breakfast this morning. I will try to be back to take care of tonight's pizza menu, but just in case, could one of you get them out of the freezer, and pop them in the oven? At least two extra large of each kind ( they are labeled, so you'll know which ones are which. I made them all up last night, so no one has to worry about freezer burn on any of them!
Everyone have a very enjoyable afternoon, and see you all later.
Good Morning. Its 59 here in Alamo City with very thick fog. Hopefully it will burn off before long.
Once the fog does burn off its supposed to be sunny and the temp is expected to reach 81.
We'll be headed to Wurstfest in New Braunfels, Texas later today: http://www.wurstfest.org
Enjoy your Saturday!
Central Indiana is into another beautiful morning....clear blue skies and bright sunshine. Brisk this morning, but to warm up nicely today. Tomorrow too.
good morning
breakfast is ready.Juice and coffee are ready.matt has his trains ready.We are off for a wonderful day(according to the weather guessers) in the corn city.an extra large pepperoni and mushroom pizza for tonight please cw.

I finally gave Weatherbug the heave ho and went back to The Weacher Channel desktop weather and that solved the problem. The old one was about 17 degrees off. We shall see how long this one works as it should. Killing time on the wireless till the wife gets home from helping with the twins and have had a fairly good and interesting evening. Take care, stay warm.
grampaw pettiboneGood evening. I enjoyed contemplating something with you guys, but it seems to have given me a headache. We need to do it again soon. My desktop thermometer (weatherbug) is on the fritz and lying to me. Although the settings are correct, it seems to be giving me the temp for Havana.... Everybody take care and have a great weekend

Hmm, reckon you need to turn your antenna back towards the North some?!
Mid afternoon and 53.8 in temp with mostly sunny conditions. Just returned from our mall and it sure is full of Christmas....Excellent fish, crackers w/butter, cherry pie....{ummm good}, and coffee for lunch. {At our MCL}, cafeteria. They really do have consistent good food. But it is not cheap.....and I'm not complaining since it is good food.
Even got to drive along side an east bound CSX train as we were headed west just out of Muncie to our west side home. Plus, ran truck thru the car wash. Now it's time to check around on here for a while.
Such a nice day - dragging hammock out into garden. Should be close to 70. CW?

Yuk. Don't think I feel bad because I had two flu shots last night (although it could be a consideration). I think it's just that it's Friday and the end of a looooooonnnnnnnnngggggggg week.
On the up-side, the CNY-NRHS train show in Syracuse is this weekend and we cancelled a fire department drill for Sunday, so I might go down both days...
If there's room in the corner booth, I'll conspire with you while I partake of my tea and bearclaw.

grampaw pettiboneGood morning. It's plumb cold in Carolina this morning. 37 degrees at sunrise, and we've got frost on the punkin and everything else. Thanks for breakfast, and I may just sit in the corner with my root beer and contemplate something. Everybody stay warm and safe

If there's room, and ya don't mind, I'll join you with my drink and maybe "contemplate something" together.....looks like a real good day for something like that. Gonna try and stay in and Stay Warm!
(maybe we can plot to overthrow..........Something anyway!)
Cw thanks for breakfast.Matt and I talked with the local conductor last night about the maw.Its time to get time up and ready for school.Going to be a good day today.We are going to go see grandpa after school and take him out for his birthday.
Good Friday morning, everyone. Gee, I wonder if anyone will be in here this morning, since no one was in at all last night. Everything from the grill and warmer bar has been thrown out, it's in the garbage now, and grill, warmer bar and all the dishes are cleaned up.
We have a current temp of 38 degrees here in Louisville this morning. Supposed to get up to about 68 this afternoon, with plenty of sunshine. Looks like it's going to be a beautiful autumn day.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready. On the warmer bar, you'll find bagels, bear claws and muffins.
I don't know what to think about the shootings at Ft. Hood yesterday. Heard this morning, that he wounded 31 people, then heard 32, then back down to 31. With the count of 32, were they including the gunman, after the police officer shot him? My sympathy and prayers are with all the family members and the entire base. Not trying to sound crass or anything, but I think that psychiatrist needs a psychiatrist. Hopefully, he'll get the help he needs.
Good afternoon, everyone. Mookie, our minds must be on the same wave length today: I went grocery shopping also, and tomorrow will be laundry day.
Since the weather is so nice and sunny, even though it's on the breezy side, Mutt and I have fired up the grill, and you will find on the warmer bar: steaks, pork chops, baby back ribs, chicken, brats and burgers, along with corn on the cob, baked beans, cole slaw, potato salad (American and German). There also are brussels sprouts and broccoli w/butter sauce and green beans.
Everyone enjoy, have a good, safe evening and you all take care.
.......Not a cloud in the sky, and it is to continue for days and become warmer.
Please to remember the Fifth of November--Gunpowder, Treason and Plot! I see no reason for Gunpowder Treason EVER to be forgot! Happy Guy Fawkes Day, everybody!! Now, if we're good Brits, let's go out this evening and join in a party that is burning a Guy. (My mother learned the rhyme from the children of British missionaries when she was a small girl in Japan, more than a century ago.)
grampaw pettibone I am up early after chasing the Chesterfield Islands on the wireless.
Tree: Yow! And I am not too sure you are all that populated to take that kind of a hit. Today groceries; tomorrow laundry. Yippee...
Willy - guess we can say your head is in the clouds? Congrats!
Looks like our weather is going to be nice thru the weekend. We will take it! November and 62 today - can't beat that with a stick.
Willy - Congrats!
For some reason, I'm reminded of an old Bill Cosby routine in which his girlfriend is taking a philosophy course and was walking around asking "Why is there air?"
Bad question to ask a meteorology major....
Speaking of weather - holding on halfway decent here, although the radar does show menacing bits of pink and blue in our area.
Tough day in the area yesterday - a bad accident sent two to the hospital via helicopter, a fire at an apartment building claimed an elderly man, a state trooper from our area was killed in an accident downstate (shortly after joining his mother's victory party for a local political office), and a man died when his pickup went off the road and found a tree.
Live for today, for you know not what tomorrow will bring.
