I hear Ya Jeff!!
More doom, gloom & weather woes from the network guys this AM. Ya know, some of these folks need to get a life!!...Standing out on a Big City street next to a snow bank in -10* temps with lines like........

"Well you see here the problem is some of this snow is not melting!"

REALLY!!Geeesh, I heard it with my very own eardrums too!! wonder why THAT's not happening!!??

F--k this $--t! Staying inside as much as I can. I'm not going out to get pictures of the parts numbers on tail light lenses or any of that 100 point stuff.

In New York City one TV station has 3 SUV's driving around in the snow to show every one how the roads are. It annoys me that management would endanger their employees by putting them in harms way, and also cluttering up roadways without good reason. Some of these people are even driving around in hurricanes to show the weather. What happened to the 'old days' when news was 15 minutes, and you got the news and weather !

 

[aschumacher]

Dave, did you say earlier that you were going to go and 'pull the plug on the old geeeser' ?

 

[jbaker]

SAY!!!!!!!!
Anyone up for some cold? I'd love to send it your way! LOL
Our high today was 1.

 

[cmcleod]

we have a blizzard warning from 3 this afternoon till midnight. Not alot of snow, unless we get " thunder snow", but high winds will create whiteout conditions..uck. that means my bedroom is going to be freezing again. when the wind hits a certain direction, my roon doesnt stay warm, no matter what I do..including using a space heater and cranking up the heat.. a few weeks ago with the freezing temps, Hannahs water was completely frozen in her bowl. Now, that is chlly.

Looks like we got us a good old fashioned soffit rattling branch bustin' Iowa blizzard on out hands!
Blowing like hades outside and can hardly see across the street and that's in town! Gonna be another snow day for the kids I'll bet!

ZERO here now and sinking fast since the high near 30 at noon or so.

Sure hope the 1450 & QA42A are up to it!!

The cold front just hit us, 55 deg. now and the wind is blowing up to 60 mph gust and its going to be 5 deg. in a few hours. Missouri weather is unpredictable.

Not that I need to fill up, still burning wood, but
Last May I paid $1.45 a gallon, I called today and it is 200 gallon minuim 500 gal max only serving current customers and it is

We're getting Charlie weather here in Northwest Indiana -

 

[thoffman]

Jeff,
Those Bastards!!

 

[lbuttke]

This is from this morning and forcasted to last till Wensday.

 

[lbuttke]

But we do have to remember why we live in the northern plains states.

 

[jbaker]

They proclaim propane shortage

Tom can you run out to the shed tonight and snap some parts pics for us??

 

[lbuttke]

If there is a propane shortage in the USA, than why are we still exporting it?



Silly question, that I know the the answer, cause it brings in profits to the gas companys.

 

[thoffman]

Ya know Jeff I was thinging of going out there and check for wire colors, paint codes, parts numbers on the taillights etc., etc. for a while, but for some reason the mosquitos are a bitch tonight.

Lonny,
Kinda' like the "Velveeta" cheese shortage just before Super Bowl weekend. I head that on the news and said to myself, WTF there isn't any cheese in Velveeta!

 

[dschwandt]

Gotta go to the bank in the morning!
Just missed the LP guy this afternoon and the bill was stuck in the door jamb when I got home.

$4.979/gal

Wish I had gotten home sooner, as I would at least liked to have seen his gun!!

Looks like my spring/summer project will be to run a natural gas line to the shop.
