^^^wussy island boy! You need to come back to CO, where Denver had a high of 16 today!

Dleg, it will be -15 degrees in the twin cities this weekend.

You can stop by and sample some beer I made if you want.

Ouch!

Dleg, I have been to the Minnesota State fair, and one of the first things you learn is that ANYTHING can be put on a stick and deep fried (like hot dish and scotch eggs)! It is not for the faint of heart (or weak hearted for that matter, as you will likely have a heart attack).

It's true, I have turned into a temperature wuss. I mean, it's to be expected, living in a place that is in the Guinness Book for having the world's "most equitable temperature", which is generally about 85. That might change by about 5 degrees between winter and summer, but I'm tellin' you, the low humidity makes it feel like 72 on winter evenings! Brrrrr!

Bite my -1 degree butt.

It's not frozen but I'm thinking of a way so that my stout doesn't get THAT cold.

It tastes better at room temp, right?

Ironically.....in my office RIGHT NOW....it's 66.6 degrees! Is this telling me something????


Seriously.....WTF?

I knew a girl in high school who's license plate, not a personalized one, said HLL 666.

 

[DVINNY]

a former co-worker of mine still has the license plate DAD 812, it was not personalized either, but we always joked that his daughter ordered it for him.

I had the same thought. It's further proof that you don't have to be a mental giant to fly a plane. Definitely not a guy I would let take the left seat in anything I was riding in.

I'd like to see each presidential hopeful give their answer as to what will happen. That might decide my vote. (If I could vote )

 

[Capt Worley PE]

Hey! That's a good idea. And all the candidates are in town for tomorrow's primary. Since I have the afternoon off, maybe I'll try and hit a few Q&A sessions.

^ The Democrats will blame the Republicans for shooting down legislation to make the plane's emissions more environmentally friendly.

The Republicans will blame the Democrats for a loose stance on immigration reform, causing more illegals to fly on the planes and resulting in longer delays at the airport.
