LOL.......I haven’t pulled out my winter coat yet, but many have and are wearing them. It’s been getting nippy around here.

It is almost too chilly to go commando, but I’m wearing jeans, so okay-64 and clear here, and it is supposed to be near to freezing tomorrow morning.

With squatters in NYC creating
Enough offal to really spoil it
I wonder why their organizers
Won’t rent even one portable toilet

It isn’t as if they cost much-
But maybe they’d take funds away
From buying the sheeps’ milk cheese
That was getting served each day

Now the whiners eat brown rice
Since street people wanted a share-
Now REAL needy people showed up
But the whiners didn’t want them there...

Wow.....you nailed them. A+++++

I just noticed while cruising through a flood ravaged street in Vestal that they put portapotties on every corner.....there were very few houses with electric and even they only had the front porch lights on...no one living there yet. Very sad.

My Jayhawks beat their arch-rival, 13-10. Kicked 2 field goals, which never happens. I can’t remember ever seeing this team kick a field goal and I’ve been watching them play for 12 years. Usually they score touchdowns and the extra point is a crapshoot.

Defense came up big. Seniors beat the rivals for the first time in their careers. Now we should play a cupcake in the first round.

I think he just never had the opportunity to be the hero before. This is their 16th unbeaten season, most ever in the WPIAL. (That’s abour 125 schools right now).

Best of luck to her. I drove home with wet snow most of the way, but the roads were just wet. There is an inch or two on the ground.

Better pack your hat, gloves and winter jacket to visit here.......snowy today. No accumulation yet, so you can forgo the boots. ;)
