Joe - I will prepare the list. I love lists! I could do the book fair, except I would probably want to sit and read the books.
Organize the house? Into a storage unit?
Didn't find the DEEX - so sent some odd ones to you. And an empty car hauler train to St Joe. (that's another Joe!)

Normal Tuesday, contract worker A closes valve, walks away.
Contract worker B opens same valve minutes later, walks away….plant goes boom.
Plastic burns quite well, lots of thick black smelly smoke.

Hello everyone. Beautiful sunshine here this morning in Shepherdsville. Temp is already in the mid to upper 30s, supposed to reach a high in the low 50s this afternoon.
My niece came to take me shopping with her yesterday morning. As I was going to get my coat, tripped somehow, hit my head on the chair bottom (good wood); had quite a headache; discovered later, after we left and got back home, that my right wrist was a tad bit swollen. It is swollen more this morning, and feels warm. Guess when my sil gets home from work, I'll see if she can take me either to the immediate care center, or just to grocery store, and pick up an Ace wrist bandage to wrap around my wrist. At least I don't have much to do today, as I'd have a semi hard time doing anything substantial. Typing isn't too hard, as I can keep my hand somewhat in one position, and not hurt while I type.
Mookie, anywhere you are, is a happy place to be. Lincoln should consider themselves lucky that you live there!
Everyone take care, have a good day, and see you all later.

Some of us realize, Joe. I used to be a school board member. The PTO and the parents' athletic association did a lot for our schools. A lot was extra stuff the board really couldn't justify raising taxes for but a lot was also stuff that the board would have had to do and effectively lowered school taxes. And teachers themselves do free things that are never recognized. My wife was an art teacher in an inner city school. She wound up taking a whole bunch of our own childrens' winter coats to school because children in her class didn't have warm clothing.

good morning
Breakfast is ready.Don't forget to spring ahead tonight.(and change your smoke detector batteries)Loading up for sisters house.Time to get er done.Will be going by CSX's Toledo Sub as well.
Joe
Peace be with you. 35 and clear in Carolina this morning, headed for 64. Paula, please take care of yourself. You are special to us.
The school/peyton place drama continues unabated. One teacher charged with 90+ counts of sexual battery on students, a cafeteria worker got busted with a 13 year old and a coach and a computer science teacher were fired for inappropriate behavior, and this was just in the last week! Our society is coming apart at the seams.
I found a program that lets me download youtube videos and have been saving vintage movies and history documentaries. Needless to say, that can be a full time operation. At least it gives me something to do to keep busy, but it fills up a terrabyte hard drive really quickly.
Everyone take care and stay warm

Tree: Heads Up! - Looks like I'll be in your backyard in mid-October teaching in 4 places in 5 days. Looking at the paperwork today that just arrived.
Snowing here - started late and now we are trying to figure out how much. Weather liars are predicting 8-22 inches, depending on who you listen to. This is 'blue snow", the wet stuff.
C.W. prayers be coming your way at church Sunday for wrist and general health. I had surgery for "sun cancer" on forehead. Friday. Knife & fork work done and tests done , and positive cancer gone. Scales on both ears were blown off with freezy stuff like from a fire bottle. So now on controled substance for pain( tylenol / codene) 10 pills no refills. Stitches come out on Fri. Other than that I am fine, and Doc said to watch trains in FLG or PHX. as per prescription. Good after care me thinks.

Keep me posted, off-line as appropriate. That's about the time we're down to a few weekend runs, so I might just be able to get together with you. If you're close enough on Friday, maybe you can hang on through Saturday and I'll introduce you to at least some of our line!

Good afternoon all. Wrist is much, much better today! Taking it easy yesterday seemed to do the trick, as I hardly did anything at all. No pain, no aching, and no warmth in the wrist at all. Can move it any way I want.
Cannonball, hope you have a very good and fast recovery. You'll be remembered in my prayers, as always.

Hmmm... Methinks I'm in the mood for a "Shakey's 'Public House Special'" tonight.
Back when Shakey's was a going concern, one of their offerings was the "Public House Special." Nothing really out of the ordinary - just pepperoni, green peppers, and onions. That was also before everyone was doing the big, thick crust that seems to be the norm nowadays.
I could eat a medium all by myself...
Not any more.
On the other hand, there's something to be said for the Hawaiian...

Canadian Pizza? I thought the most authentic Canadian food was pea soup.
John WR Canadian Pizza? I thought the most authentic Canadian food was pea soup.
I believe the menu said Canadian Bacon on pizza, not "Canadian Pizza".
[I think pea soup generally refers to the fog there.]
Don't forget to "Spring Forward" tonight and set the clocks ahead an hour.
And as Larry and others have said, check/change batteries in smoke detectors and CO detectors!!
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!!
Or poutine.
^^^^^^^^^? Chocolate and Split Pea Soup?????
Two favorites of mine!
I set most of our clocks ahead around noon and drove the Driver......crazy!

Mild here today, but cloudy. One of our fire trucks needs washing. As soon as that little shower that's showing up on the radar goes by, I think I'll go up and take care of it.
Where does one wash a fire truck?
Mookie, my guess would be right outside of the firehouse, with said fire truck parked outside.
Woke up this morning, and discovered that I had forgotten to set my clock forward in my bedroom. Moved the time up then.
Our temp is somewhere in the upper 50s, going for a high of 70 this afternoon. The only downfall, is the cloudiness, and nice breeze blowing. Makes it just a tad chilly outside.
Everyone have a good day, take care, keep safe and see you all later.
CW - well, that is the first best guess. I am trying to remember if I have seen the one catty-corner from us washing in the drive or not. I know they do some clean up on it out there.
Just stopping by to say Hi and given folks a video to enjoy from out Alaska 1999 trip

Mookie Where does one wash a fire truck?
In our case, outside the station, on a nice day so the ramp doesn't turn into a skating rink.
Our station doesn't have floor drains (built by the lowest bidder - the members of the fire department ca 1957) so washing inside isn't an option.
Our sister department in the district has a wash bay inside the station, but during the winter, the seven mile drive back to our station pretty much negates the effort put into the washing in the first place.
Tree - kind of one of those things you just never think about.
We have an engine, a truck and a med unit - so they all are probably washed inside - Maybe a bad time to have a 3 alarm fire? Running out with shampoo still on your cab?
Greetings from about 500 feet above downtown Salt Lake City! Yesterday, all of my furniture that I am keeping and my books that I am keeping were moved up here so I can live in the step-father apartment in the house Katie and I bought. I still have a lot of small stuff to move, but the backbreaking work (the movers' backs, not mine) is done. We have a beautiful view to the west, complete with seeing the lake. I was connected to the internet today, so I could catch up with my mail (I looked for personal mail yesterday morning). Most of what I need immediately has been found--but I discovered that I did not bring a comb, so I had to use a washrag to comb my hair (unlike Old Dan Tucker, I did not have a wagonwheel to comb my hair, and I did not need a frying pan to wash my face--and I do not expect to die of a toothache in my heel). I have the promise that if Katie is home in the evening, I am to eat supper with her and Jackie, her daughter. We have deer in the neighborhood, and have to watch out for evidence of their passing through if we are out in the yard.
I am nearer to Church than I was (about 3 1/2 miles as opposed to 11 1/5)--but I estimate that I will use at least as much gas coming home as I did use.
Early last week, rain showers were predicted, but we had a bright, sunshiny day.
