I can't believe they can keep a straight face and charge what they do for that piece of plastic junk.

 

Not only do you have to buy the plastic junk, you need a booster pump and piping to go with it.  The Dolphin runs on about $.05/day (DC motors) and requires no booster pump or extra plumbing.

We are going from 35 today to 65 tomorrow, which is plenty quick enough for us here in the mid west.

Don't confuse me, is it burgers or chilly :P

 

 

I ask because that's how my chili starts out, I smoke them then cut them up. :)  I did once see a recipe for chili with coffee in it :lol: You got me thinking.........For burgers I like to add a couple of eggs and some good Italian breadcrumbs and other seasoning,  but my favorite is 40-50% hot sausage mixed in.......now I'm thinking about food... :(  

Guess you will have to venture over to fine food and music to see the out come. :P

Good evening guys.....

Coffee done many hours ago, I can't drink it in the evening hours. It gets me all crazy, I have some problems sleeping as it is. So I don't drink any at night.

Joe that rain you got was snow up here. It dumped about 10" on us in NW Maryland. I tell ya I'm done with this winter. So no work today.

Ok guys I'll have a cup with ya in the am.....a goodnight to all.

MKP :-)

K cups appear to be more expensive than I thought, but I guess if you only drink a cup or two a day it's worth it for convenience.

I thought the same thing till the coffee makers fouled up with in a year (had 2 pots do the same thing and there are many threads about them doing it on the net, there is a supposed maintenance procedure but it only half worked and the pot clogged again in short order

Yep I feel Ya, I was done with the winter as well cold here this morning heat is on  but no snow YAY !!!!!!!!!!  No Work Huh, Either you work for yourself or you have a decent Boss I am betting self employed  :D

 

B-4 my injury the employer wrote me up for missing a day due to inclimate weather, They expected me to drive 87 miles with 2 feet of snow on the ground and still falling  "SAFETY FIRST"  They actually told us we were emergency personnel, and when the Governor said stay off the streets we should tell the police we are emergency personnel and when they dis agree we should piss the cop off further by requesting his name location and badge number...............some of the management was a tad self absorbed

 

We had a safety audit where they stated mediocrity was the center of gravity concerning management  :D , I so wanted to print that report they of course blocked that option

 

off to make a cup (NO K Involved  :P )

Good Friday morning gents.  It got down to 30 this morning but at least the wind died down and it was dry.  Should be mid 60's and nice tomorrow.  No cable stories to tell that I can think of.  Coffee should be espresso tonight as Friday night is movie night at the house.  I'd hate to waste $2.16 of my hard earned money at Redbox by falling asleep during the show.

Happy Friday folks! Warming trend here so we're anticipating a great sloppy snow melt, at least for a few days. Finally got Baxter out for a walk yesterday and will try again today. Movie Night on Fridays at our house, too. Will probably play a few tunes on the B before that. I've been stuck on a few old songs the past few days like the old country tune "Abileen" as well as some vintage Hank Williams. Not exactly pipe organ material but neither is the rock 'n roll that I like to bang out.

 

Cheers............

35 in Seabrook at 0500.  Barometer was 29.7 as the front approached but is 30.4 today.  We haven't had a freeze all year and I suspect we are all done...fingers crossed.  Bright sun, light wind up on the ship channel where I work.
