This is the place to talk about things that are not gps related, you can discuss whatever you would like, as long as it is clean. Remember we have families that have their children involved in the GPS fun and we don't want to make parents feel uncomfortable when their children ask what that word means.
Have fun...
This thread will be closed on Monday and a new one will be opened.
Miss POI
I hope our finished with it now!
Miss POI is back at the helm, I am not back to 100% but I am able to focus today. I spent most of the day in bed resting.
Miss POI
Glad to see your feeling better, One way to look at it is, may be you got it out of the way for the seasons to come. I hope.

I will be getting a flu shot
I will be getting a flu shot this year, it seems that this is the season when young school age kids bring home every illness going around. Not sure when this changes but I will welcome it when it does.
I have a 2nd grader and a kindergartner, we get all the germs.

Gas prices down again
Regular was down to $3.38 per gallon today. Hope the trend continues. And I hope my sister in NC can find a station to fill up the tanks of her two vehicles.

Go Cubs!
I was hoping they would have lost to Cincinnati last weekend, was looking forward to Randy Learner cleaning the coaching staff. Now it seems like we have to wait another week for this to happen when the Giants come in and Kick some Ars.
So was I Bashing, No... just a joke.. you need to lighten up there buddy.
Go Cubs - Go Rays

Sorry Bob, I meant mine as a lighthearted comment. I apoligize if you thought I was serious. I enjoyed your comment and thought it was really funny. Maybe just a poor choice of words on my part when I said "Bash" but again, meant it in a very lighthearted way. No Harm, No Foul.
Now if we could get the Cubs Pitchers to throw some strikes. Eight Walks last night, come on give me a break. And why do coaches let the Pitchers dig such huge holes before even getting somebody up in the bullpen. They did not start the bullpen until after the Grand Slam.
Oh Well, we still can cream the Dodgers tonight.
Go Cubs!!!

Tooting my own Southern California horn over here, GO HALOS!!!!!! Yes, I know we blew it last night, but we beat the Sox 11 out of 12 this season with two series sweeps!

RAYS WIN!!!
Rays win their first ever playoff game 6-4.

That's "Rescue Plan" and they passed it and Bush signed it. Wall Street like that so much, the DOW closed down 157 points.
So much for my retirement accounts rebounding.

Good grief. Gas is $2.99 a gallon in Akron. Hard to believe that I'm excited when I see that price. It's still about 40 - 50 cents higher a gallon than this time last year.

Lost my COW
what a bummer! I finally got a new job (after getting laid off over a month ago) and I just realized I lost my COW when I lost active status. I better get moving and get some files done!

Lost my COW
You only keep your cow for one week and then there are new one's named. But you can go back and look at the list of COW's to see when you were awarded.

because down here in SE Ohio, it's still $3.65. Price goes up everyday when oil is up, but takes forever and a day to drop a couple of pennies.

Hey Tex...
I need to get some shut eye.
Hey poi4433...
Any chance that you are near Orange Texas and the Sabine River area?
There is a Chemical plant there that was flooded with reports of water 5 feet deep from Ike. The site supplies raw material for the place I work and the disruption may cause lay offs here.
Little word is coming from management on the sites status and I’m poking around to see if there are ‘boots on the ground there’ and any other information. There is scant information in other news sources.
It’s a big well known company.
Get it while the gettin' is good

More like they were getting it before the restrictions of the rescue took effect. Let's hope that 401Ks and IRAs will recover.

Rotten luck with weather
Kid's birthday party I was at yesterday was from 1-3pm. It rained here in Chicago from 12-4pm. So the kids were all cooped up inside instead of running around outside and using the "moonwalk" bouncy thing.
But Saturday's weather was amazing for apple-picking in Wisconsin!

I plan to live forever. So far, so good.
This thread is "So Last Week"
Who will be the last to post before this thread is closed by Miss POI and who will be the first to post on the new weekly thread?
I don't try to be the first one to post - it'll never happen.
I usually don't see this thread after Sunday afternoon or so, it was just funny that I checked it this morning.
And now, back to your regularly scheduled forum - already in progress . . .
Last or First?
I am just glad that that I am here to read this thread.

Too Darn Busy!!!
Well it's been awhile since I've been able to visit the ol' POI community. Sorry 'bout that... I've just been so darn busy! But I've missed the chit-chat and all of the positive efforts to keep everyone on the straight and narrow highway. I have definitely felt the absents of this site. I actually didn't realize that it had become so much a part of my life, so I promise to Miss POI that I'm going to do better in trying to keep in touch. Sorry to hear that you've been ill. Hope all is well by now. Here's to everyone's health, wealth, and happiness!!!
