Good morning! Oh, man. I had dreams last night with Cafe people in them. People I've never met. It was strange and awesome! Also, the Bibbulmun Track was there. In my dream I was sweating along on it.

How bizarre is that? Must be the snowpocalypse, playing with my brain waves.

Thank goodness for air conditioning.

snow started here in ny around 6am, supposed to cahnge to rain/snow mix around 10 then switch back to all snow late afternoon, looking at 10-14 inches, but if the cold air comes in sooner, could be worse. we're more concerned about flooding and hiigh winds here on the island.

According to Accuweather.com the humidity is raging at 38% right now, so no. Come summer time we'll be talking single digit humidity.

Did someone come in here sick? Maybe the guy who licked the doughnuts? Woke up this morning with heavy congestion, a sore throat and generally feeling like crap. Don't worry though, wearing a germ mask and won't touch anything here.

Wishing everyone in the north east the best of luck with the storm. Stay safe.

I'm in the same boat as you and Lou. Sinus trouble for years and now my ears wont drain right. Ears ringing and hurting. Vertigo comes and goes. Looks like I will be heading to a specialist very soon.

Naw, don't do drugs. I am debating whether or not to go to the doctors. My daughter was sick and it turned to pneumonia, sure don't need that.

Interesting DH... we have about 3 inches but the sun is shining already. It's melting some...

I hope that everyone stays safe, no loss of power or floods. Y'all have a great day. Another busy one for me....

[Storm]

Wont your doctor just call you in a script without an office visit?

He is pretty old fashioned, he wants to actually check you before he orders any drugs. He has been my doctor for about 30 years and still won't do it. Now after I see him if what he prescribes doesn't work I can call in and he will give me something different. I was lucky enough to get an appointment for 2:40 PM, if I didn't get in today I would have to wait till Tuesday.

You were lucky to get in. I'm in FL right now and every snowbird and his brother is here. It can be almost 2 weeks to see a doctor. This forces a lot of people to go to the ER for 8 - 12 hrs. No kidding. I'm lucky. I've had my doctor for almost 40 years. My mom was a nurse for 50. My doctor came in at the time my mom was the Chief Admitting Nurse at the hospital. They worked together for years and he will call my scripts in. If he wouldn't I'd be stuck in the crowds.

Sound like a shortage of Doctors. And we just had laws passed to strongly discourage people from entering this profession. So unless something changes, it is only going to get worse. :(

My last son was born in jacuzzi tub with a midwife (wife said if she could have a child in Asia (previous son), she could do it with a midwife). My goal was to get him to 18 without ever being in a hospital, but when he was 10 he got a splinter the size of match through his finger so we had to take him to the ER.

That's almost exactly what I swapped out. My 215/50R17 "All season" tires looked more like racing slicks than real all season tires, even when they were new.

Good news from the doctor, I'm going to pull through. Got broncitus, hope thats how you spell it. He gave me a shot in the butt a script for a z pack and some really good tasting cough syrup. Better tast good, cost almost $30.

I think I should take after my grand dad and great uncle, when they got sick they made a hot toddy out of tea, whiskey, and honey. Probably worked a little like the crystal meth.Woa back up, he wrote you a script for a new Zpack...that's awesome where's he located..my back hurts.hehe

Yeah and as a kid I always wonderd why I saw the same guys sittin on a park bench drinkin cough syrup(early 70's) they must have been real sick.;):D

I like setting up lawn chairs and watching the flatlanders crash into each other.

I remember one Christmas break getting snowed in at my in-laws in Northern Indiana. Everyone was smart enough to stay inside except teenage/twenty something guys. First guy got stuck in front of their house my father-in-law takes out a snow shovel, while we watch the kid from inside the house. Shovel left against the mailbox, and there were several more that used over the next few days. Made for great entertainment. ;)

Good news from the doctor, I'm going to pull through. Got broncitus, hope thats how you spell it. He gave me a shot in the butt a script for a z pack and some really good tasting cough syrup. Better tast good, cost almost $30.

I think I should take after my grand dad and great uncle, when they got sick they made a hot toddy out of tea, whiskey, and honey. Probably worked a little like the crystal meth.

One of rugby league's biggest ever star players, now a coach.
My side of the country doesn't even follow that code of football and he's well known here.
A rarity in a famous person - a really nice bloke.

No he's a real person. Not a character invented to fleece Americans of their money at the box office.;)

More like a rabbit in a spotlight to me. (just before the shotgun blast)

Thanks for the reminder. We (as a collective country) do sometimes think we are the center of all that is quasi important.

You can donate to the Troops . At least we can here. Send to deployed soldiers.

When they do their stand at the grocery store they put up a picture of my nephews platoon enjoying a care package of 2 or 3 cases of GS cookies. All from buy 1 give 1 to the troops.

Four inches since my last report. It has turned to heavy wet snow and large freezing rain, for the past hour we have had cloud lighting! The storm of the century continues.

We're closing in on a foot plus at my house. The plow hasn't been by in hours and think the only vehicle that's made it through is a neighbor's snowmobile.

I thought she was his Mom! :D

Did you know that someone bought the house they filmed A Christmas Story, and remodeled it just like in the movie? It's somewhere in the midwest. For a small admission fee, you can go in the kitchen and hide under the sink just like his little brother Randy.

Same as every Friday night, Pinky, we're going to take over the world :cool:
