One-way ticket coming up!
An electric blanket night here too BUT we had to leave the windows closed and run the air-conditioning all night because of the smoke. The “just pretend we’re camping” argument no longer works as the last time this happened the house smelled like smoke for a week.
I’ve selected my drivers before the deadline w/a roll of the dice. We’ll see if its “snake-eyes” or a “seven” come tomorrow & Sunday.
Good day ta ya.
I don’t do electric blankets, have a mother-in-law that makes quilts. :)
We normally have bad smoke in the spring from the Yucatan brush burning.
Corpus Christi set a new record yesterday. Lowest high temperature EVER recorded. (70)
Our record here yesterday was 14% humidity. Really. Isn’t any moss here in the high-desert.
Quilts are great to snuggle under but, with my older and aching body its bliss to crawl into bed under toasty covers.
I wonder who the next victim(s) will be Sunday in the race for the chase?
We had our normal 95% humidity. It was sprinkling, drizzling all day.
I still like my quilts, well, and my central gas heat helps. ;)
Should be another crashfest, short track/short temper.
Pay no attention to X2 as he has given me 12 different drivers on his roster this weekend. It’s a balmy 59 on the shores of Humboldt Bay and humidity of 92% but it’s different type of humidity. Here is a easy to read guide to RH... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_humidity
Easy to read guide????
“A gas in this context is referred to as saturated when the vapor pressure of water in the air is at the equilibrium vapor pressure for water vapor at the temperature of the gas and water vapor mixture; liquid water (and ice, at the appropriate temperature) will fail to lose mass through evaporation when exposed to saturated air”
I’m running 12 drivers cause I’m special. Na-na-na.
I haven’t had a life size pin-up on my door sine Betty Gable was a teenager but I just put up a full size poster of JJ. And no, it will he will not be on my team this Sunday....
Different type of humidity eh?
That’s about like the time I spent Thanksgiving in West Texas. They had that “dry” cold. BS, it was freakin’ 20 degrees!
Who is Betty Gable? :)
A full-size poster of J.J.? Is the poster for you or for this Misses....think before you answer. All I’ve got is a NASCAR calendar with the #24 for September.
I know who you’re thinking of running and I wouldn’t...they haven’t done anything this year and I don’t think they’re going to start now.
Of course you are ahead of me, and most everyone else, in points but would I steer you wrong?? heh heh
Dear Dr. tubebender,
My son is left today to visit friends in Seattle and tonight I found my wife putting capsules of an unknown substance in my food dish. I don’t know if she’s trying to worm me or if she’s feeling frisky.
What should I do?
Signed,
HDX2
With your son gone and it’s just the two of you I think I would be safe saying that one pill is Blue in color and the others are loaded with Zink unless she gave you the dog’s arthritis supplements...
Dr. tubebender,
Your advice came a bit late. When she got out the leash I knew what was up; I have nonetheless deposited the obligatory .05 in your account. We are looking forward to hot nite tonight.....Mexican take-out.
On a more ‘series’ note drivers are locked in and the weather for today’s qualifying looks like a go. I’ll have to record it as I have multiple errands/chores today. The predictable unpredictability of this track will make this race more fun then.
I will again guess Mr. Montoya is this weeks worst finishing chase driver.
Qual points are up.
Wha’ happened to DG88?
Did they run Qual at 5am real time or what? I guess I can quit channel surfing now? and what’s with the 7 X 18 points?
Snicker...HDX2 only got 13
Glock and I are stuck in 13th (now 12th). That should make for a thrilling points race this weekend.
My picks o litter Q’d at 15,16,19 and 22.
Damn, I miss Bo.
Yes, but it’s a dry snow.
Ya know, other than our two leaders who didn’t move, you were the only one that actually lost positions this week?
Snow is quite pretty on TV and as far as I’m concerned, that’s the only place I like to see it.
Wow. I love snow. It gets quiet and way local when it snows. Did I mention I love snow?
