In the room, but there is a starbucks downstairs. I brought my laptop and have access to high speed internet (for a small fee of course). Gotta keep up with youi characters.

The cherry blossoms are out, very few trees starting to get green. Unfortunately, it looks like rain/showers the rest of the week.

very weird, driving to the hotel. We passed withing 2 blocks of where the Washington Wax Museum used to be, my first job was in the gift shop. The meetings are at the same hotel as my senior prom.

later, time for a shower and then I have to go have breakfast and schmooze.

Darn you Nowslimmer
Had to put on my boots on to step outside and check the morning temp to see how we compare to your 82. You got us beat, but only by a measly 62 degrees. Feels good though; no wind and the sky is clear. Should hit the mid 50's today and for the next 2. Coffee is very good especially after yesterdays coffee thread courtesy of Nigal.

EEEww, Treebait. That sounds like the stuff I've been struggling with for the past two weeks. It almost makes you think you have broncitous (however the heck it's spelled?!), but it's just all snot. Thankfully my nasal passages haven't been stuffed but rarely. That's what really drives me nuts about being sick, having to switch to mouth breathing, lol. Feel better fast!

Maybe it changed. I sent you a description of an indoor/outdoor thermometer. There is no need for you to put on your boots, etc., just ot go outside and read the thermometer, when you cna get the readings inside.

No, it came through just right. I just thought the thermometer was so classy that it wouldn't fit into the Northwoods redneck outdoor decor. My neighbors would likely shoot it up with the deer rifles.

Good morning, everyone.

Hugs and love to Divinity on this special day. Knowing how hot you will be this day, Florida has issued both a RED FLAG WARNING and a FIRE WEATHER WATCH. I'll be huffing and puffing and will blow some of those clouds away so that you can enjoy the temperature in the upper fifties. Happy birthday, you beautiful girl. You look so good today. Sure wish I was there with you.
Love, Paul

My foreman wasn't there yesterday for me to tell him I'm leaving. I did tell the QA/QC and HR doods, though. The foreman is known to flip out, so hopefully he'll go off on me today...then I can wlk out w/o a guilty conscience. lol

Good morning everyone and Happy "Gettup" Birthday to Divinity. Got my hammock up and checked out. It was 40 degrees and a north wind at the time. Crawled in, zipped up, and was very cozy.

Baume - I note that you live in Richmond. So does my son. He's the head trainer at the Gold's gym on Brook Rd. I'll likely be there this summer/fall.

Nope, I was up kind of early. I just didn't crawl out of bed because we forgot to turn the heat on last night and it was a cold run to the heat register.

It's tuff to be both an Astronomy Fan and a Morning Person. For me it's no contest, <G>

Of course there were people 30 or 35 years ago who tried to do both... We called 'em Speed Freaks, and most of 'em were carted away by the guys with the butterfly nets, LOL

"Speed Freaks"
The Speed Culture

Dexedrine was initially developed in the 1920's to treat depression
and obesity. I used it in losing weight in the 50's. Then the kids found out how good it was as an "upper," and doctors became leery of prescribing it.

Now I learn the the military still is using it as "go-pills" for
“performance enhancement.”
