I'm off to bed!
Nighty night and thanks for the laughs!
((((Ruthy))))
Sweet (and sour pork) dreams...
I'm outta here too.
She said "Yes... Geragos has been retained by Suha, and is going to Switzerland for the weekend".
Just kidding. :-)
Niters... I guess I'll bail out too...
Evenin'
Clare baked some Pumpkin bread this afternoon! It'll have to do.
The "king" is .45ACP. Barely subsonic, as designed. Good power, but tends to make a loud SPLAT when it hits. H&K makes a nice .45 with suppressor for our Special Ops people.
Hey mister mag... yahsure... I'm a big fan of .45
I'm sitting here watching "Enemy at the Gates" on da hotel teevee... love this story. Vasily Zaitsev. Truly an amazing story. He was the Russian version of Carlos Hathcock, at least.
I read somewhere that the legend around Zaitsev was that in the battle for Stalingrad he made 242 kills while only ever consuming a total of only 243 rounds of ammunition.
White Feather, indeed. :-)
So they're going to bury the bastidge in the parking lot (Fox News). Makes it hard on those of us who wanted to offer the site Numbers One and Two...
Good morning!
Do we get to really believe Arafat is honestly and truly dead this time? Or is he going to go take a walk later? Or is he just pining for the fjords?
I need caffeine.
We apparently had a brownout here last night (again), and (again) several systems now won't turn on. If we could get people to at least use power strips...*sigh* But we have no power to enforce anything.
Is he really most sincerely dead??
:-)
Good morning! Happy Veterens Day!
Mornin'
I'm getting ready to head out to Lowes. Got the day off for Veteran's Day. I didn't do anything to deserve that, but I'll put it to good use.
Put out Papa's flag this morning to replace our regular one. His was one we had flown over the Capitol on his birthday several years ago. We fly in on special days.
Monday he will have been gone 2 years. Seems like Nana has been with us for 20. She's not doing well. Wife was at her limit last night and said for the first time "We can't have an invalid in this house, she'll have to go to a nursing home." It may not get to that, but wife is talking with the doctor about getting Nana emotionally ready to get out of the brace. She's out of it right now and in her chair where she'll stay until the therapist gets here. The brace came apart and we can't find the screws. Doctor is trying to track down the manufacturer. sigh...
I'm finishing up some coffee and gonna work outside mostly today.
Good morning Corin!
It's very windy out...if it calms down a bit I'll put the flag out.
Whatcha goin' to Lowes for?
I have a $25 Lowes gift card from when we bought the fridge...
Ah, yes! Happy Veteran's Day!
Lowes?
- Gotta get a sprayer attachment and some bleach to wash the house.
- Need some towel racks for the bathroom.
- Need a quart of paint so I can finish the front storm winders.
- May get some lime for the yard.
- And it's quite possible another one of them spiral rope Christmas trees might make it into thuh cart...
*groan*
Morning!
Heheheh...
Later folks.
