Glad I stopped by for a sec,,
-I, sniff-sniff, I have such waves of emotions flowing through my body after reading all the heartfelt poetry
and revealing of feelings expressed on the last two pages.
-I am having feelings I have never experienced before and--

-Whew, must have just been gas.

Not what your wife said - -- she reports you have feelings like that all the time and yes, you ruin the ozone layer. ............................

Bark you have it a bit turned around. It's not heart felt, its fart smelt poetry. I typed it while i took the kids to the pool this a.m.
you know what else i find interesting?
When i type ozone, the word poetry pops up as a spelling suggestion. You see? Its a message.

Pass the licorice.

Carb base gasket.
I'm going to run out this tank and try some straight canned gas. See what it does. It's running cooler now though it's still idling a big high.

If yer feelin kinda crummy
and yer nose is kinda runny
you may think it's funny
BUT IT'S NOT!!!!!

-Whew, must have just been gas.
Had a few too many cookies. Feel like maybe the dog's gonna (want to) vacate the premises when I hit the bathroom in the AM.

Need to make a wrench for the tensioners on the hi tensile fence. Used my pliers to tighten about 15 of the things today and pulled something in my arm up by my elbow.

Doesn't help that we had a cold wind today. even with my hood up my neck got cold. I can feel a bone out of whack in my neck. It's not as bad now as it was when I got home.

G'day. Reading thru these posts is, is, is um, strange. Often wonder how a bunch of shrinks would analyze the DTR members that post here. Somehow I doubt if any analysis would include the word "sane". Unless it is IN-sane?

Going to now attempt to drive some of you insane that are suffering horrible weather. As I type this I am sitting about 200 feet above the Indian Ocean and about a 5 minute walk from the beach and breaking waves. Have a wonderful clear, uninterrupted view of the beach and the rocks. Just finished watching the sun come up in a cloudless sky over the sea. A gorgeous sunrise. The noise from the constantly breaking waves is very loud. Love it. Right now it is a bit cool, but soon it will be quite hot and very humid. Got to go and get my wife moving, but she does not want to get out of bed. She is laying on her side watching the sea and has the patio door open so that she can hear the breaking waves more clearly. Breakfast in 2 hours and I am more than ready for it.

Be nice an don't throw too much at me or ban me. Hey, I worked long and hard to be where I am right now, so going to enjoy it.

The message is MONEY.
You guys gave me a brilliant idea. Ozone can be formed by electrical discharges.
If you receive an electric shock at the same time as passing gas wouldn't that convert the gas to ozone?
Im going to put something similar to dog shock collars (but with a few more amps) on toilet seats.
When the device hears a noise it will provide an electric discharge that will convert the gasses into ozone.
As long as the person is properly grounded to reduce the chance of explosions I don't see any problems with this plan.
Heck, this is way better than anything Al Gore came up with, I could win the Nobel prize too.

I'm not in the least bit jealous.
Heck, its nothing special to sit by the Indian Ocean I mean its HUGE so lots of people can sit by it.
For a similar experience we just set up a fan, get a couple of candles and gather around the breakroom bidet.
When the handle is pressed its just like being at the Port Saint Johns Blowhole complete with ocean spray.
Same experience without all that silly traveling you had to do.
Oh well, since you already are there you might as well try and enjoy yourself.

Today's thought:
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.


C0ffee & ph00 are on.

BIDET? IN THE BREAKROOM??? Where? Since you are talking water running, the only thing I can think of it is not the kitchen sink, so it must be in the bathroom. Only things in the bathroom are the sink, the toilet and the foot wash basin. Just wish they had put it closer to the toilet so I could sit on that when I use it - - keep having to haul a chair in from the kitchen to sit on.

Sounds wonderful - - sorta like our house. We have the King ocean right outside our bedroom only it is about 15 feet from our bed. We leave the lanai door wide open and watch the waves in the "ocean" with the gentle sounds of the fountain filling the room inviting us to come to me - - - come to me - - - jump in be comforted - - and cooled. .........................hey, enjoy - - sounds neat.

OK, off to catch up. My day yesterday got turned completely around. Friend's wife fell and was hauled off to hospital. He has alzheimer's and needs attention. We went to hospital to be with her and left about 11:30, going into surgery one her spine at 12. Went to Don and fixed him lunch, cleaned the place up a bit, settled him in for nap, up to Sarasota for appointments, back to pick up Don and take him to hospital to spend time with his wife, took him home and fix supper, got home at 6:30. Now, catch up time. So, later gang - - gone.

I just learned something new about the ozone and all of ewe.
The electric bill is going to be high and when that current hits you'll either laugh (i will) or cry. And we all help the sky.

Came to get a coffee and have a quick p p

Stan that sounds awesome. Enjoy your hard earned well deserved trip.
And always always leave a tip.
