Mang.
Congratulations on your new purchase. Have you had any snow yet?

Dont mind Highwind....He's just ticked because he is A-hole deep in snow and knows that Paula and I are sitting in the hot tub, sippin on mint juleps and listening too Barry Manilow crank out "Mandy".
Not a drop of snow on the ground around here...but it's around 0 degrees FAHRENHEIT....and we both are in a Blue State. (It's just natural "Shrinkage", Paula, sweetheart,baby!)

Highwind


Despite the high cost of living, have you noticed how it remains so popular.

Lint,

Gee Lint, I feel bad about your predicament: having to share a hot tub with Paula. Keep an eye on her. You never know when the cobra is going to strike. Goodbye to the family jewels. And another small trophy set for her wall.

If you want a taste of winter, come on over. Its now -4F and is going to -14F overnight. ( I imagine those are still tropical temperatures for hickster though). I converted them for you as you might not remember the conversion forumla: C X 9/5 + 32 = F

Paula,

Don't believe that natural shrinkage line. They are the full size, given that he's sitting in hot water, not cold.

Honda stable: HS 724 snowblower;  HRS216 lawnmower; BF2 UWWW; 5 HP, 2200 psi/2.9 GPM pressure washer.

Electric: BV2500 B&D Leaf Hog/snow duster; old 12" Weedeater.

Paula


May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human and
enough hope to make you happy.

Highwind

I figured he couldn't be trusted in anything to do with measurements after he tried to convince me that a matchbook was 8 inches long....

Here's a few others that came to mind:

WOT - Wide Open Throttle

PTO - Power Take Off (engine powered auxillary shaft/clutch)

EOD - End of Driveway (pile of snow the courteous snowplow drivers leave for you to clean up )

TDC - Top Dead Center (upward most point of movement of the piston/rod in the cylinder - sounds obscene )

BTC - Bottom Dead Center (downward most point of movement of the piston/rod in the cylinder - also sounds obscene )

KMFA - what my wife would do to me if she found out I was ALSO in that hot tub (kick my fat a$$ )

Actually, it is a balmy 30° f here in the "Anchorage bowl".

But it is snowing! Expecting 4-8 inches tonight (probably 3-4 in reality).

So have you got to use your blower yet?  Do you still have it?

Nope, waiting for snow.  At this rate, I might have to get my lawn mower ready.  :)
