Mornin folks. Good day yesterday. Put the Oppo into the 2 ch system. Sounds very good and is definitely an upgrade from the Marantz CD5003, which now goes to the girl cave. (My better half's stained glass studio). Much more clarity and detail, maybe not as warm but that's ok.

 

Hey Chuck, Jake thinks he smells just fine.

 

Mark, congrats for staying on the wagon. Been on the 'wagon' almost 20 years myself.

 

Gonna hickory smoke some ribs today. Mmmm. Later guys ...........

Well iv been doing this on and off when needed, for well over 30 years, Flight Dominates my life, everything else takes a back seat. never been a problem setting down the bottle(s) for a few weeks or month as needed.

I do like spending the night or two for a flyin, that way i find a great local pub :emotion-21:

 

That's great, Mark. No offense intended and hopefully none taken. Chuck.

Hope everyone is doing well, been MIA for a while, still a little sick and extremely busy, I think this retirement thing wasn't permanent after all.

 

Been nonstop working, but it's from home and fun. Wife wanted a sign, I made her one and she put a pic of it on her page with her sewing and embroidery stuff, this was 2 weeks ago.

 

Yesterday I finished with the first 38 signs, and we went to get supplies for another 30 today. You never know what's going to happen.

Yes feeling a little better thanks, whatever I had kicked my butt, it felt like the flu, still have the sinus and tiredness but over the rest.

 

The good news is I can taste again, coffee taste like coffee again. :emotion-21:

Glad you’re back among the living Elden.  Most of the people at work have been sick--a couple of them twice; my brother got sick twice also. But, I’ve managed to avoid getting sick (a very minor cold two years ago).  I generally don’t get sick -- People tease me at work for avoiding sick people and not touching door knobs; but, four colds in 15 years is worth a few jokes at my expense.  One guy told me that it’s good to get sick to strengthen my immune system. I told him that i think mine is strong enough.

I am glad also, I know how a zombie feels now, I'm sure I looked like one. I never get sick or take medicine, maby something for a headache a couple times a year and that's it. Glad it's mostly over.

Glad you're feeling better Elden!  Not the same without you here.

 

A wet week in store.  Itching to get back on the bike.

 

So this is retirement.  Last year dance lessons :mellow:  this year bike riding again, guitar, and Tai Chi :o Wonder how I ever found time for work :wacko:

 

Retirees it's Monday.....nap time.  Working stiffs go out there and make us proud.

 

Cheers :emotion-44: Gents

Morning gents.  Temp dropped about 20 degrees from yesterday.  Someone just told me it was Monday.  What a cruel joke.  I wonder what the day has in store???

20 degrees lower is good news for me...got rain Sunday here for real...we sometime get what you have there in 24 to 72 hours generally speaking.

Now back to work Carl... :)

Know what you mean. Same way here. Try to keep away from sick folk. Usually get it from the GF though...

A cold that is... :)

If not completely better by next week, some Red Rooster tablets may be in order...

Left the courtroom and went straight to our Wal-Mart.

Not a good selection of coffee. Came away with a small bag of Chock Full Of Nuts, as name familiar to me. Home and brewed a cup...not bad at all. Will look elsewhere for the other brands mentioned here... :)

Morning yet again after Nap

Dickinsons Blend tasting just fine, letting the wife sleep in.

Well that went fast, just looked in the Cameras and she is up, so it appears i need to start the Day.

Chef made Breakfast, and let her spend some money i guess.
