Deb, horses don't usually put trash cans over their head, or this video wouldn't be news. Most horses, if you tried to put that can in its head, would freak out.

I just learned that the granite countertops in kitchens might be hazardous to your health. Some granite has a high level of radiation. Weird, huh? See http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/24/garden/24granite.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

Radioactive counter tops, hidden hazards in vaping, bomb threats from terrorists, life is an adventure, no one gets out alive :ohmy:

I guess if they got the granite from a site near a uranium mine, it might not be good for counter tops. They might have received a little hint when they turned out the kitchen lights and their counter glowed in the dark :laugh:

Looks like the forum is up to speed again.

Good morning Volties! Rise and shine!! Looks like I'm first up so hot water and coffee's on also I made french toast again. :)

Not only dealing with a slow ECF forum response but boy did we have some wild weather last night. Heavy rain and thunderstorms rolled through with a tornado watch in effect. No reported sightings but the atmosphere was ripe for it.

Yesterday's temp was in the upper 70s and today we're in the 40s. I'm hoping the sun will come out and warm up some.

Hey Deb! I think Alice missed a couple of those mice because the forum site is still sluggish. :laugh:

Thanks for the coffee and French toast. Nom, nom!

Yep, still a mouse or two.

Speaking of mouses, something ate a quarter of the lettuce in the greenhouse. I told Hubby put out some traps. He thought a gopher was digging it's way in but it turned out to be a kangaroo rat. That little devil won't be eating any more lettuce.

Hubby wants to go fishing next weekend so I told him he has to get lots done today:)

Sitting down, facing forward.
Love the French toast, JoAnn, especially with cane sugar and cinnamon or warm maple syrup, real maple syrup!

I just got a "gateway timeout" trying to go back one page here on Chit Chat to see what I missed from last night. I think the mice are gumming up the works. I also wonder is it has anything to do with the number of pages in this particular thread. A few other I checked this morning loaded fairly normally, maybe a little slow, but no timeout. I guess we're too verbose!

Seems like the problems started with the survey even though the survey is on another website... maybe? Even having problems trying to "like" a post.

Very astute, JoAnn. It's still slow here, and you're right -- the survey coincided, so it might be connected. How do they expect us to want to take a survey with things this slow? I won't.
