Morning everyone!View attachment 2559018

Good morning OM! I Thank you kindly for the coffee and smiles you bring!

 

[Lilianna23]

Did you grow up near me? That was the snack around these parts!

It was a cheap snack for us kids.

We get a lot of tornados here in the Tampa area. There is a reason the Tampa hockey team is called the Lightning.

We lived in Tampa for a few years when I was a kid. I remember hurricanes.

Two days down in Mexico City…good to be home. Good Lord that city is HUGE! One more day in the Cumberland mine then home manåna. Is it Monday? This is one of those weeks where I lose track of days and time.

Hurricane Erin Watch: Cat 4 angling NNW but should pass 2-3 hundred miles off the Carolinas. Cape Hatteras will get surge and surf. Fingers crossed it stays out to sea.

Some Mex City MZ——

G'night all!... story of my life, going to bed about the time everyone else is getting up.

 

[Lilianna23]

There were two I recall in Lancaster Co. One hit an Amish barn and the next day I was driving by and they were already getting started on the barn raising. I saw an Amishman walking across a corn field with a cell phone. He had that walk they have and I did get a chuckle. They have come up with some funny rules to limit cell phone use.

I didn't know they could have cell phones! Do they have electricity?

 

[Lilianna23]

Keep them pushed up on your head!

Once the glasses necklace is in use, you turned the corner and can never go back.

I don't think I'll ever be that old!

 

[Lilianna23]

I am not ready to adult again....

Ugh

Back to work? How was it?

 

[Lilianna23]

If you had to sing karaoke with no warning, what song would you go with?

NO one wants to hear any of that from me!

I didn't know they could have cell phones! Do they have electricity?

Usually not but there are exceptions and some do cheat. If they have a cell phone they are supposed to keep it in a box away from the house.

I recall renting a garage from one Amish guy that had bought the property and it had electricity so he could rent it out. In PA they must have batteries on their buggies for flashing lights. I was riding by a farm on my bike and a woman had stopped in to buy some produce. She could not get her car to start and killed the battery. I got the battery from their buggy and jump started the car! They use solar panels to charge their buggy batteries.

I have a ton of stories. There was the girl that left the Amish and married and "English". What they call us. She lived next door when I was in high school and I would play hookey on days she was outside hanging up her wash!

Actually, if I'm in a situation where they require me to have/wear safety glasses and I really don't need to, I do use a necklace thingie so that they're present and I meet the requirement without having to engage in Wanton Asshattery actually wearing the damned things.

I had safty glasses save my eye. Too long to a story for here but you never know what might come flying thru the air in a steel mill or a construction site. I wear glasses all the time so they do not bother me. Just be safe out there, bad things can and do happen.

Good morning denizens of the diner. The same thing to do as yesterday morning. My daughter gets her rental. The car needs rear springs. I guess that road hazard was uglier than I thought.

Afterwords I am free for the rest of the week. Rain in the forecast today. And the old dog sleeps more.

Have a safe and good day.

Old Cat slept almost all the time. I would have put him at 22 hours/day, really.


His bones rest with those of Big Horse. I like to think that they'd both approve.

I'm no expert on cucumbers and beets but I was once a judge in a 'best melons' competition!

Why doesn't that surprise me.....

 

[Missk_2022]

Back to work? How was it?

Ok. My bosses dad just got put in hospice. He was playing golf and had some back pain.. he had cancer but they were treating. Went to the er and stage 4. Met with oncology and they made the decision to stop treatment. My coworker is on dialysis now and his sister died from cancer in 8/8

Our team is struggling....

Sometimes, as I enjoy my morning coffee, all I want is to listen to the news without anyone commenting or complaining about it.

 

[OtherwisePrint6210]

Give up the news, listen to silence. Or peruse lit.
