Yep, we made it thru, Scott. Did you hear from your sis? With Madmans help I found where she was - - didn't look like anything got into her area that I had heard. Sure a mess around Orlando - - one subdivision where our friends live was devistated - - they are fine with only a couple shingles missing and a little work to do on the plantings. Not fun when those things hit out of nowhere - - I'll take a hurricane - - you know they are coming.
Pretty cool down here for football - - rain chances don't look good. I keep looking outside to see if I see palm trees to make sure I am in Florida - - highs in the low 60's today - - 40's at night - - wow.
GO BUCKS!!!! Oh wait a minute, they aren't playing. ????? hmmm, oh yeh, GO COLTS. Dungy is a neat guy - - I want him to win - - he deserves it. They are both good coaches and fine men.

Well, not one single thing from my earlier post went right today. Not one little single thing......
Back at work, supposed to have 10 -20 below windchills tonight according to NOAA.
Did bring the brake tools in, if I can find an open bay might just try to accomplish SOMETHING today.
Mud is ready, come get some.

Second:...You have reached that pinnacle in your career where you absolutely can't go any further. After years of hard work, sweat and toil, you've gotten to that place of envy in your field that others can only dream about, you have hit rock bottom and earned all the privileges of your rank.lol

Two Reasons:
First...Someone just recently said a PFC can foul things up a little, but it takes an Officer to really make a mess out of something. (this explains me)

Jeesh, Chaikwa...
TotallyRAD uptight dude! what happened to ya Rick?? yeh get a little fancy title and start kickin' the janitor (job in the toilet- funny stuff) first off!
1700 mile round trip done. steel panels secured in office trailer on the east
acres. did manage to drop a steel panel on my big toe, broke it and it still hurt even though it was about zero degrees out. finished loading only to have the trailer tip from unbalanced load. scramble to move about 1200 pounds further South, ahhhh now I know what it is like to be in the Navy during a storm....all is well. tomorrow , my husband and i will think it is funny.
ate too much, watched superbowl with good pals, toe up, next to the fire had some 'apple tea' made by an Indian friend of mine. alcohol ain't got nothin' on it for rendering one pain free...ahhhhhh! son made it safely back to college, REDLEG's blizzard found its way to new York state. I would leave some of these fool drivers right where they are, cold storage some sense into them.
FIVERBOB!!! glad you are shivering, but damage free! foo foo all you want, warmer weather will be there next weekend. I am ready for a pool float, better bring three more: one for the janitor if he's all washed up one for REDLEG for stress relief or no phone, one for Fronty as his last posts were,like, two words- he must be frozen...
dually! hope ya blew off some smoke and steam! have fun!
where's JBarko been?

JWBM, sounds like you're having my kind of luck, not desirable. Maybe you shouldn't have let those ducks out?
Might be some toilet brush, janitor voodoo stuff
.........just thinking out loud.

30's would feel like Summer right now.
Morning temps in the low teens with winds gusting to 20mph.
Had to plug in the little electric heater in the office to help the
'Window Shaker' HVAC system keep up.
Most folks are off today.
Us Contractors are here to keep everything running and get the work tasks completed properly ..........(just like every OTHER day)
Heading out to clean out the work van after the sun comes up.
Brought to polar suit......gonna need it.
Y'all stay safe....and warm.

Why's the coffee pot MT? And the donuts are gone too. <sigh>
12 below here this AM. Saw some kinda weird, verticle 'ice' rainbow at sunrise. Neat lookin' but sorta strange at the same time. (see pic)
Looks like it's stopped snowing for the time being, so guess I'll try to plow it up some today. Knowing MY luck it'll start snowing again as soon as I get it all cleaned up.
Awright, new pot is brewin'.
See ya in a bit.
