Seriously, congratulations to you and shmbo! 31 years is an amazing run!

Congrats and treat her like the queen she is for putting up with all of your shit!

 

[Wonderer67]

Thank you sir!
I hope it is too as I'd prefer that you see me here, instead of on the 6 o'clock news!

Let’s NOT see that.

Good luck!!

I was a member of the 3:19 AM club. But I actually did fall asleep again from 5 to 6.

Off to meetings in a little bit and then a long drive home.

I’m gonna have the missus start the charcoal chimney about 20 minutes before I get home and I’ve been marinating some pork chops since the weekend!

And maybe jump in the pool!

This was the smoke from the fires in 2023. I never experienced smoke like this. It was a perfectly cloudless day, it was just orange and eerie.

I was monitoring local web cams, and some of the views were completely blocked out! It was like a thick morning fog all day long. I've seen some smoke here before, but nothing like yesterday. Much better today, although the AQI number is still around 170.

Off to get done what needs doing. Have a good morning all!

Owner Ready To Ditch This 1970 Road Runner, Guess the Price Before Reading​

Plymouth had the time of its life in 1970, with sales going through the roof and propelling the company to the third place in the United States. To put this in perspective, it was Plymouth's best year since 1959, so the company had every reason to be happy about its product portfolio.

Owner Took Rare 1975 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Ragtop for an Inspection; Dealer Charged Him $45​

Apparently, having an old Oldsmobile inspected is 45 bucks nowadays, or so the gentleman who owns one reveals. He bought his from Tennessee (he found it through Hemmings Motor News magazine) because he likes cubic inches and noise. Also, he didn’t want a 4-4-2 because they are too mainstream, so he went for something different and ended up on the paying end of a 1975 Delta 88, one of a few hundred produced.

I have NO biorhythms left... I made it to bed at 04:30 but was up at 09:00.

Taxi service is done and now putting in half a day's grind
What's everyone else up to on Hump Day?

You understand, of course, that I am a man of honour and could not possibly reveal my sources. On the other hand, is it true that everyone has a price?

I was blissfully unaware of this until I read your post. Fingers crossed that this resolves itself quickly for you and others affected by it!

Uh-oh. *checks notes* Hmm, were we supposed to keep this from you?

OMG, guys and Gals.... my apologies for my absence and lack of responses...
I've been "sidetracked" and probably will be for a few more days/ weeks....
Please DON'T let that effect the love and respect I have for y'all!!!!

Hopefully it's something fun. Be well, take care... we'll keep the light on for you.

3 am and old dog has to go out, sinuses bothering me as well as the back. As I am doing a taxi run today, I probably will stay up.

Have a good day and wear a particulate filter mask if in the area of smoke. Protect your lungs.

I double mask for so many triggers. Carried some extra disposable filters for the mask pocket today, too. I like to breathe.

Yep! I come from a land down under

no... NO... AURRRGH! earwig... EARWIG!!!
A lalalalalalala
Dang it - now that song's going to play rent free all day

Just. Caught up, I feel for those struggling with smoke from the fires having a fair bit of experience with that here Smoke is unpleasant, and really bad to breathe in, though its a lot better than fire, i hope you are all safe,

Thank you for your thoughts and concern. Yes, I recall that year when the Western US, most of Canada, and almost all of Australia were all burning concurrently. Hope this year is easier for all Aussies

Or maybe being sidetracked is a euphemism for something….

New slag for the lexicon just dropped

Thank you sir!
I hope it is too as I'd prefer that you see me here, instead of on the 6 o'clock news!

I'm sure we'd see you rescuing cats for little old ladies, right?

Well, 31 yrs ago today, I walked the plank…er…the Isle. Going to make breakfast for SWhoMBO, cut some flowers…OK, buy some flowers.

Congratulations to you both!!

If this is the "new normal", I will need to move... like to Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard (Norway). I'll need a winning lottery ticket first, but I'm sure that's possible, right?

Much better today, although the AQI number is still around 170.

Same - can't really see it but can feel it in my sinuses
the masks help a bit

Morning all avoid the smoke I’m missing my morning OM caffeinating therapy

Same... OM coffee and real coffee. may have to take matters into my own hands with the real, real

I have NO biorhythms left... I made it to bed at 04:30 but was up at 09:00.

Rx: Nap... reapply liberally, as needed
Please have this filled. Anyone gives you ? Direct them to me.

Thanks for giving me "morning wood" dammit!

Thanks for the laugh

Maybe don't tell her this joke...

Maybe don't tell her this joke...

What am I doing on MY day? You ask?

Waiting patiently on SWhoMBO…to get her mess ready so we can go eat. Now in all fairness she called around looking for reservations for a place that has soft shell crabs…well…this ain’t Maryland, so no dice. So now, she’s posting pics from the wedding, time is ticking away…everything closes at 9pm…EDT…

Now I’m watching as Ms OCD is running around the back yard putting away things that couldn’t wait till tomorrow

Time is ticking away…

So, what you're saying is that in 31 years you haven't learned to make a dinner reservation and tell SWhoMBO that the reservation is 90 minutes earlier than reality?

That looks real bad, were there embers falling from the sky?

@Wonderer67 feel free to chime in here...
He's East Coast and I'm Midwest, but I don't recall talk of embers in 2023 or with the current fires.

Here's what the web has to say:
