JSM's BEGGING FOR BAN THREAD #10

[Missiontoconvict]

Good Morning! 

20 degrees with snow on the ground here. We've finally got some sun peeking through and the wind is gone. I've been talking to my son in California, and he is in light jacket. He said the people who live there are dressed up like they are going on an artic expedition.

We have friends who live in Florida and when it is 50 they have their coats on similar to what we put on at 10 above  Heck at 50 degrees we still have windows open some days. 

Heck yeah, us too. 50 degrees is "airing out weather" around here...in the springtime. Now,it's 19 out, supposed to go lower. I have decided to not go anywhere today. Haven't yet vacuumed, but have done some laundry. I think I need a nap!!

Hi Tevye - I was going to send you a shout out earlier - I am glad to see you!  Good for you - stay in and enjoy yourself at home and hey don't knock yourself out over anything you don't feel like doing - it is going to be a cold weekend as well so if you can pace yourself. 

MISSION, you really got dumped on, didn't you. It sleeted more than it snowed here, although it is still on the ground. I laugh at the cats when they go outside, they tip-toe and run right back inside in front of the fireplace. 

That is funny because our Jack Russell gets out and wastes no time going where normally she sniffs around forever before she finally squats I can just see your cats tip toeing around. We did get quite a bit of snow - about 5-6" where we live and in some parts of the state they got 16".  I hope you manage to escape it but that sleet is not laughing matter either - very dangerous.  I am glad you and your husband made it to the eye doctor and back safely.

GREEN EYES, he is really having a good time out there, and is enjoying the "cool" weather! 

That is great news Fanny Mae. It is a fun place and lots to do. Right now it's not covered with smog. I bet you are looking forward to him coming home.

I am! However I have gotten a lot done too! We are going to smoke a pork butt and have pulled pork sandwiches this weekend!! We cook outside about once a week in the winter, providing we can get to the grill and smoker. Sometimes it means using a shovel, but I think we will be ok this weekend. 

I don't even think Cheech and Chong have tried to smoke a pork butt.  You go girl!

Sounds good Fanny Mae.

We can start today if you want to.   

Let's get started

 

We have one of those fancy high-end grocery stores up here. They could probably get us a watermelon......or two.

Boise firefighters rescue boy whose tongue was stuck to metal pole

Memo to children — and adults for that matter — everywhere: Don’t try to emulate Flick from "A Christmas Story." Ever. Your tongue will get stuck to a metal pole when the temperature is -2.

Boise fire officials were able to help a boy whose tongue was stuck to a metal fence pole outside the Fairmont pool near the corner of Milwaukee and Northview streets Tuesday morning. Firefighters didn't ask him his age but said he was probably 10.

The boy is OK, Boise Fire Capt. Bill Tinsley said Tuesday morning. The boy’s tongue was bleeding a little bit but there was no visible tearing, Tinsley said.

“I’ve been doing this 20 some years and this is the first (tongue frozen to pole call) I’ve had,” Tinsley said. “Poor guy.”

A woman driving by the pool saw the boy standing there, figured out what was going on, and called 911 a short time after 8 a.m.

When Boise firefighters arrived, they found the boy standing by the 8 foot tall chain link fence with his tongue stuck to the fence pole, Tinsley said.

Firefighters brought a glass of warm water with them and poured it on the pole, and the boy’s tongue came unstuck almost immediately, Tinsley said.

Tinsley said there were no other kids around when firefighters arrived. The boy didn’t say much, and once they determined he was OK, firefighters let him walk to school.

We drive the neighbors crazy. They seem a lot friendlier when we are cooking outside...


I am! However I have gotten a lot done too! We are going to smoke a pork butt and have pulled pork sandwiches this weekend!! We cook outside about once a week in the winter, providing we can get to the grill and smoker. Sometimes it means using a shovel, but I think we will be ok this weekend. 

I don't even think Cheech and Chong have tried to smoke a pork butt.  You go girl!
