Moring shipmates. Three days 'til BEER DAY! My liver is twitching with anticipation.
16 lovely degrees here in my neck of Heaven. One of my favorite eateries is thumbing their nose at the governor and has reopened a week ago. Might just drag my nasty ass to the shower and get me one of Comet's famous Heart Stopper bacon cheese burgers. I've gone in there starving and could only eat half of one. Great onion rings, too.
Yoop, you'd love the place. I rate the taste of their burgers maybe a notch above Tony's.
Good morning Islanders.
Hippie, we sure as hell will eat bacon cheeseburgers from there, my favorites, along with some onion rings. Can't wait bro.

We have the infamous Killer Burger in these here parts for heat stopping delights.
They've got one bigger, but I've never seen anyone crazy enough to try one. It's called the Comet, and it's a triple patty with melted cheese, lettuce, onions, tomato, pickles, and two onion rings, with two grilled cheese sandwiches used for the bun. Huge.

Twitching liver.... hahahha

Currently 16 balmy degrees here in my neck of Heaven-and the forecast calls for us to get slammed with 15-18inches of snow over the course of next two days.. I love big snows - especially when i don't have to go out in it. Next Thursday & Friday the forecasted temps will be in the 40's.. Can you say Wild Swing?

yoyo Hippy:

Last Thursday afternoon (a.k.a. Thirsty Thursday) I was driving along - thinkin -that
in days (months - 8 months to be exact) gone by, I would probably be in a bar having a beer or 3.

I thought about it some more, and the horror of local watering hole abstinence made me
feel Skitzy:

So I pulled off the road -
right in front of
BERNIE AT LITZYS.jpg


I put my mask on and entered through the side door.
I walked in - there were about 8-10 patrons having a good ole time. Behind the bar was Haley - a nice young lady who greeted me with a smile and told me I could take my mask off. So I did.
I order a bottle of Bud (no draft beer offerings allowed during pandemic!!). I started BSng with others and before I knew it - 2 hours flew by and I had a half belly full of beer. I bid farewell and warned them that I would be back the following Thursday 4 sure.

Hippy - it felt so GD Good - to sit at a bar, converse with other like-minded human beings, and drink ice cold beer like a Free American. 8 months it took for my azz to land back on a barstool.

I will keep my promise to return to Litzy's next Thursday.
cause as sure as God made little green apples,
I will be feeling Skitzy...

later doood - Timefor W&B 5:00am

We've got a restaurant serving a 72 oz steak that will provide it for free if you can eat it and all the trimmings. In my travels I also saw a pizza place that made the same offer on their large pizza and kept a record of names on the wall that had tried it.

46F @ 87% RH, rain with 9 mph wind, and predicted to reach 54F.

We tried out a new open air breakfast sandwich place yesterday, which was pretty good and I made good progress on the article I'm working on.
 
Mean, in my working days, I was a five day a week guy. About a year before I retired, I cut it back to three. After I tossed off my slave bracelet, I cut back to two, Mondays and Thursdays. Friday is amateur's night. Too many cops around.
 
i get 9 or 10 uses out of all of my condoms, i just lay em out to dry for a few days and let the microflora go to work, and BAM!, they're good to go again!

Reminds me of the Scottish regimental sergeant-major coming into the Apothecary shop with a used condom.

He hold it up to the proprietor and asks, "Can ye repair agin or no?"

Druggist says, "I am sorry. It is impossible."

Sergeant-major sighs and says, "Aye. Thought you'd say that. So the Regiment chipped in to buy another one." 🥇

I recall my first "IT" class in college (circa 1980)- pre-interwebs.

Used to write code on special grid paper,
Feed grid paper into machine - which punched holes into data input cards,
Feed data input cards into computer.

Yeah - that was pre-floppy disc daze too!!

FORTRAN 4

I remember I was supposed to make a run that figured the circumferences of 100 circles (taking the class).

I wrote it wrong: I was supposed to show the process, and the answer and turn the page. 100 Pages. Those great big ones. What I wrote printed a number, turned the page, printed the second number...

When I got back a few hours later to see if my run ran... there was a stack of paper 7 feet high. Each page with one number on it.

That was my last day in that class. I have stuck with electronics only.
