Thursday #246 -- Happy Birthday, Rod Stewart

[cassiesmom]

and Pat Benatar ... Shawn Colvin ... Donald Fagen from Steely Dan ... George Foreman. So, here's the plan - since I'm the first one here, I'm going to fire up the George Foreman grill to make some lunch, and put on some music- starting with a Steely Dan CD.

Where is everyone?

[lvpets2002]

Oh thank goodnes for that - I thought Rod was going to be on the juke box. Are you making steak sandwiches? Yum!

Are you reelin' in the years
Stowin' away the time ....

[gini]

Staggers in - plunks down at the bar - "work is killing me"

I'll have a leftover sandwich from lunch - and just about anything to drink as long as it doesn't have alcohol. Tax forms and alcohol don't mix - or should they???

[slick]

Staggers in - plunks down at the bar - "work is killing me" Oh my Gini, you do look taxed!!!! :p Sorry for the pun but I just couldn't help myself. :D Here, how about a nice cup of herbal tea to calm your nerves. That should do the trick. I can do wonders with my hands....want a back massage? It's only the 10th so you've got 3 weeks yet to get everything done and in the mail. No worries, you'll make it. You always do.

For me, it's been a great day so I'm in the mood to drink. I'll take an ice cold beer please and maybe some fresh onion rings. Oh MOFF, care to join me???

Rod Stewart?? Never been a fan of his but Happy Birthday anyway.

[Dorothy39]

Hey, it's about time I found my way back this neck of the woods~

Like, I didn't know today was Rod Stewart's Birthday either , but I sure got a kick out of seeing the pictures that IVpets2002 posted for the occasion :D

Hey bartender, make that a double order of Onion rings and while yer at it, throw some Mean Lean steaks onto the George Foreman Grill :cool:

Hops. That means beer does it not? I'll join Slick (metaphorically) in a beer. *waves to the ladies*

Let me pour away all your pain...

Hello everyone....

Oh my,

I think I'll have to put some more Steely Dan on.... :D

Let me put out some scotch, rum and vodka...

DONE!

Still busy but things are getting slow!

Hoepfully!

[cassiesmom]

Steak sandwiches for Killearn Kitties. Onion rings for Slick. I like to make grilled cheese sandwiches with the George Foreman grill.

[slick]

Good day everyone! I've been busy all day taking down my tree, lights and ornaments and packing them up for another year.
**sigh**
I just hate this. The lights are so pretty they are not to be seen tonight.:(

But the good thing is the days are getting longer and before we can turn around twice, it will be spring and all of Momo's flowers will be in bloom.

So for tonight I think I'll just sit back and watch the crowd, maybe with a glass of wine in hand.

Think Spring, Slick, and pass the onion rings!!! ;)

[RICHARD]

Spring, Onion rings and "you can't buy a thrill"!

DONE!

[Karen]

I'll have some of those onion rings, but I'll also make a large pot of chai for those still in winter mode - shoveled about 8-10 inches of "toothpaste snow" today, so everything is still snow-covered and lovely, but the driveway and stairs and one car are clear. The other car needn't move anytime soon anyway ...

In case you are wondering, "toothpaste snow" is heavier than "snowman snow" and sticks to absolutely everything. You can still make a snowman out of it, but you'd better have help to lift one section onto the next if you make it any decent size - it's that heavy. Any heavier and it'd be "heart attack snow," but that's so heavy it doesn't stick to branches very long, its own weight pulls it off, or the branch down.

Example attached, do not click to view if you are trying very hard to think spring!

I talked to my niece tonight and it was a SNOW DAY - AS IN YIPPEE - NO SCHOOL!! She went sledding the majority of the day.

Before dropping by the bar I had a yummy homemade turkey pot pie - so I am a bit stuffed right now - just dropped in to say hello to everyone.

Nice to see the fire going.........everyone seems very relaxed and happy.

[smokey the elder]

"Toothpaste snow" LOL! We call "heart attack snow" wet cement.

[lvpets2002]

:) :p Oh Oh You All I Am Still Waiting For Some Snow Here In Texas so dont rubb in all the fun you all are having.. :D

[Karen]

"Toothpaste snow" LOL! We call "heart attack snow" wet cement.

Yeah, that's an alternate name for it - that is certainly what it turns into when a cold snap follows the storm! People who think all snow is fluffy and pretty and stay that way have obviously never slashed a shin trying to maneuver over a frozen-to-cement snow bank!

[Killearn Kitties]

All this snow talk is making me need more hot drinks!

We get very little snow here, but two or three years ago we had a fall of about 8 inches of toothpaste snow. A friend of my mum's had had a snowplough come along her road, which was fine so far as the road surface went, but she ended up with a big wall of snow blocking the end of her driveway that had been pushed off the road by the plough. It froze absolutely solid overnight and she ended up having to take a hammer to it to get it shifted.

That's what our city does to my sidewalk that goes to the street. Never mind that I'm disabled and need access to the street to get to the bus. Or that I can hardly dig that out! :(

Keep the hot chocolate flowing, we are to have snow tonight. Only one to three inches but the temps will be really bitter - highs in the 20s for the next few days with more snow Friday. sigh

I WANT SPRING AND I WANT IT NOW!!! (I know too bad, eh? ;) )
