Heather's Heavenly Vapes - THE BIG THREAD (Part 5)

My Dad, then a Home Improvement Contractor and Licensed Stationary Engineer, told be about Plumbing in five seconds;

"Hot on the Left. Cold on the Right, (crap) flows downhill and Payday is on Friday."

Haven't been there myself - I think the 500G's are advance credit payments for corporate entities - but Hawaii doesn't have any corporate HQs here. I suspect it'll be out of business by the end of the year.

In case you're wondering why the President hasn't yet commented on the "abuse" suffered by those two criminals at the hands of WV law enforcement, he probably hasn't had time since he's just finishing up his Hawaii vacation.

He dined (at taxpayer expense) in an exclusive restaurant that charges up to $500,000 for a membership. I'm sure he only did it as a research project to see what the working class are missing out on.

I figured that was your main hangout place.

Doesn't sound like a place for the great unwashed masses whose rights our Prez supposedly champions.

 

[Hulamoon]

I couldn't eat there that's for sure! Anyway, the great unwashed masses know better - you leave hungry because a lettuce leaf, 2 stalks of watercress and a drizzle of something fancy sounding doesn't fill you up so you end up eating at McDonalds for a burger anyway.

Restaurants like this one always make me think of the fairy tale "The Emperor's New Clothes" where he's told that the silks he's being shown are of such fineness and are woven so beautifully that ONLY those with huge wads of money and sophistication can actually see them.

The emperor pays out his money and his new clothes are made. He's so proud that he "parades" his new finery to the public, everyone starts ooh-ing and aah-ing, What fine colors! What beautiful weave! - all wanting to appear all-knowing and a cut above the hordes....

till a little boy hollers "But Mum! He doesn't have any clothes on"

Good morning....didn't get too much snow but is very frigid cold..suppose to stay that way for a few days. Today I'm starting with a little sewing, have some nice fleece fabric to make a blanket for my uncle and some mending I'd promised my sister I would take care of for her. Then I'm going to get stew started and bake some cookies, hope to get a few attys set up while working in the kitchen. I'm so glad we don't have to bowl tonight as this is really the first day of this long weekend I've had just to stay home. I've been missing my DF in the KFL so that will be the first to rebuild. Hope everyone has had a little time to relax over this last weekend as the next holiday won't get here soon enough.

Iowa..It got up to 61f in my part of Georgia today..Very nice but rainy. One of these days,..Mother Nature will give me bones a break.

How's my PJ's coming along>

I thought those went at the bottom of Kitchen and Bathroom sinks.. Urinal?! Maybe they are for Kidney stones as BK suggested.

Kidney stones..loose wedding rings..swallowed quarter dollars. ect ect.

If that swallowed quarter dollar wants to come out in a Urinal.. I'm guessing somebody is going to be ...... on their shoes!

Not so much enjoying as weathering it.. bunch of home stuff, got some coils to re-wick, etc etc. Fairly routine day!

How has yours been so far?!

Right now I can hardly keep my eyes open..I had to take another 1/2 a Norco..(pain medication) I hate the side affects,...didn't have much of a choice though.

I'm just catching up on some threads,..maybe tomorrow I can get by with a muscle relaxer only.

Lets try that again.

Hi David!!

 

[PapawBrett]

Hello David. I am up for my turn on an overnight run tomorrow night, but I am thinking I might ask to be skipped. 20*F and precipitation just doesn't do my old aching joints a whole lot of good these days. Might be a while before I see Ohio again (unless it's a warm spell)

 

[Chakris]

Jeez! I thought that was a bit of donut crumb in my mug. Thanks, Chak.

Well, now ya know, Lori, be happy! Oh, and thanks for that bit of plumbing knowledge. I hadn't thought of the smell coming back in through the pipe from the septic tank. Live and learn.

Dad taught us a lot about DIY around the house, but I learned a lot more after I got out of the Navy working for a handyman who took care of several apartment complexes owned by one company in Van Nuys, CA.

Yup we are going down to the teens this week. Not going to be fun and will make for a long week.

Well, the boys bathed our Lab and we've let him be inside today. His hip joints aren't in great shape- we can tell by the way he walks. He's a great dog, laying on the rug as we speak. The hair will be the biggest battle. I've given him a couple of ibuprofen today. Anyone know if that's a no-no with dogs? Need to research what to give him to help with (assuming) arthritis pain.

Cowboys win. Yay for Robin and me.

And as a result, my Panthers are going to Seattle to get creamed next week.
