So, is the whole café in Damascus now? Where is everybody? Has everybody hooked up with the silly walkers yet? Deets - we want deets. Where are ya'll at?

I wish I was out hiking! Or, even in Damascus... Work seems to be getting in the way of fun for the moment. *sigh* BUT, it is a gorgeous day out...and, I do seem to be coming down with a cough *cough, cough*.

You can use gravity to your advantage. Tell work the doctor told you to seek higher elevation so the gravity would be less and it would allow whatever is causing the cough to come out easier. Along with the warmth of the sun to help soften it. Doctor's orders.

This is Lucy. I normally would not post this on a non-dog forum, but hey, it's the cafe, and we have quite a few dog lovers here - and, who can resist that face?!? This girl is looking for a home in the New York/Connecticut area. Here's her info:

I'm Lucy, and my friends at Stray from the Heart in New York City have helped me forget my rough start in life. But it left me with scars, as you can see. They took me to the vet, who said that since I'm in no pain and can eat and drink and play, I don't need surgery. And my rescue group friends all say I'm still perfectly beautiful when you look at me with your HEART!

I get along great with all dogs and cats, and my friends want me to stay within a three hour or so drive, so they can always be a resource for me. Also, they say they'll welcome me back for vacations sometimes! Aren't they NICE?

So I'm here today to ask you to give me the greatest gift of all for National Disabled Pets Day: A new home! Please share me, and ask everyone to look past my mis-healed jaw and into my heart -- I'm counting on you!

Love, Lucy

Hey Sarcasm did you go back to the thread started by HM where we talked about bleach and norovirus?

I looked through it a couple hours ago.

I especially like the part about peroxide being more effective than bleach. Ever since working for a pool maintenance company as a summer job in college, I haven't been able to stand the smell of bleach and only use it when I think it's absolutely necessary. On the other hand I usually have an ounce or two of peroxide in my pack as part of my first aid kit.

Cool it was a good thread. Did you go hiking this weekend?

I ended up meeting a buddy of mine that I hadn't seen in a while and hiked one of the Connecticut blue trails. It always amazes me how many great trails they manage to hide away inside the dense urban corridor in this state. The trailhead we went to today looked like it was someone's driveway and if it wasn't for the 4"x4" placard put on the entrance by the local maintaining club, I would have assumed that we were trespassing. Once we got a few hundred yards away from the road it felt like we were in the middle of nowhere...perfect weather too.

Sorry about mixing that up. Thanks for keeping me straight. Sounds like you are having a great time!

We may have a haiku shootout! or a "who's prettier?" contest? oops, I might lose that one :D

For the "who's prettier?", there are more men than women in the Cafe, so I have confidence you can take that one. ;)

Not so many foreigners in Key West, they just try to make you feel guilty for liking the opposite sex. Went down one time when it was "ladies" weekend. Shellie and my sister were treated like gold. I was looked at like the heathen from hell.

I was thinking with the Conch Republic stuff, they sorta considered themselves their own little country.

Back from a Saturday of no-blazing,1 and then was kinda busy today and didn't check in. What'd I miss? HB back in Lawn Guyland yet? IM got his eyesight back?2 Do I still have time to make popcorn before the palace revolution?

1Kaaterskill High Peak, up the west side and down the north.3 Visited the Tory fort, the hanging ledge, the northeast overlook, Hurricane Ledge, and the former Hurricane Ledge. Got surprised by a couple of icy patches on the rock scrambles coming down to the north. Fun!
2Gotta watch out for that bad 'shine.
3OK, it wasn't all no-blazing. Sloshed through the snowmobile trail for mile-and-a-half or so on the way out. With all the mud, the so-called trail was the hardest and most unpleasant hiking of the day.

That's funny. We got my nephew one of these for his birthday or Christmas. Everybody else got him remote this, remote that, cars, planes, you name it. Do you know that peg board and hammer was all that kid would play with. Everybody was trying to get him to play with "their" toys but that hammer bench was all he wanted. They were so mad at us. 2 - 3 weeks later my sister-in-law call and says I'd really like to thank you for that toy. The kid wont put it down. All day long, bang, bang, bang. It's driving me nuts. Try and take it away and he pitches a fit. Thanks a lot.
