Good morning BBB! As you sip your favorite morning brew and let its warmth embrace you, settle in, for it's time to gather and unite for our morning roll-call!

    • Well, CFP started off a great game before WA sorta just shut down. Impressive run!
    • Rain and winds up/down Mid-Atlantic today. Soupy. Ugh. Sending Waggs out to get Ceramic coated.
    • Busy day ahead.
    • Welcome home Kris/Dennis!

    Mornin' BBB

    Welcome home Dennis and Kris.
    I actually kinda like the grittiness of Jim Harbaugh, but will fully acknowledge he can be a knucklehead. I bet he was fun to play with and fun to play for, and he has never given a flying **** about optics. His brother John is a bit more gentlemanly.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning.

    We watched M*A*S*H last night instead of the game. No real regrets. Penix played at IU and transferred to Washington anyway.

    Standard day of meetings and whatnot with a test screening of our new short film around lunchtime that I may or may not go to. We wrapped too late to get it submitted to SXSW this year, so it may sit in the can for a while.

    I bet our friends across the big drink lake "Michigan" are celebrating! Congrats! Hope the mister is doing well.

    Snow day here. Schools off. Supposed to come down heavier later morning thru night. So far 2-3in. 6 to 9 in our area through late afternoon. So they say. Over and over and over and over. Geez these news stations smh....its winter it was bound to snow, finally . Yes snow will get in my tire treads and wheel wells... true story according to local abc reportors here. Lol. Really ? we need to tell folks in Wisconsin this ?

    Good day to make some split pea ham soup, while I straighten my office and desk for 2024. Flip my mantel to winter/valentines day.

    Have a wonderful day everyone be well.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Whyt didn't the Huskies play like that against Oregon? Interestingly, we too were watching M*A*S*H.

    Stormy day here, too, with heavy rain and winds up to 45 mph. It will all turn to heavy snow on Friday and Saturday, they say.

    They called yesterday to tell me to be available Friday afternoon to talk to the admissions nurse from the hospital, who will outline my reporting time, etc., for my back surgery on Tuesday.

    Morning BBB

    It's going to be a stormy day here too. Several schools have closed and all have canceled afternoon and evening activities.

    We have our Subaru followup today. Thankfully he is coming here and it "should" be before the rain and high winds. I feel a little bad he will likely be driving home in it but i don't think it will take too long to answer our questions.

    We might take a little road trip to Central Florida starting tomorrow. We want to check out the area (Ocala) for a potential place to move someday. On paper it's just right...medium size city, large lots, near several bike trails, revitalized downtown, near enough to Orlando or Tampa Airport.

    Good afternoon BBB Friends.
    • It is good to be home and sleep in my own bed, which I did for a loong time.
    • I did watch most of the of The football game last night until the outcome was pretty much determined.
    • It's a very rainy day here today, not that I am going anywhere.
    • Steph, a very anal friend of mine created a best place to live spreadsheet many years ago and Ocala came out the winner. Kind of a lazy area. Just west of there is horse country.

    New specs? ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž

    I'm overdue for eye exam. Need to find a new provider. MyEyeDr has not been impressive since becoming the conglomerate that consumed my local Mom/Pop optometry practice. Ugh......

    We are going to try a mobile Vet clinic run by a couple vets that got bought out/taken over by a conglomerate, and like Lee, did not really like the "corporate structures/practices." We've been using our Vet from TWO neighborhoods ago and its 30 miles to get there. Hoping the mobile Vet will be a suitable substitute.
