Chit Chat Thread for the week of March 9th 2009

SPING TRAINING. YEAH

Why Connecticut state legislature would even consider such a bill as #1098?

Hidden Agenda's thats why.
The gay rights movement has embraced and is pursuing with stunning audacity, this bill in the Connecticut legislature. Since the Church will not recognize them, then they will "reform" the Catholic Church and take power from the Bishops.

Frank sounds like a wise man to me.
To seek the God-given authority is not the way to wreak revenge for the things we have been offended by.

OBTW I have my flame suite on

Yep, Jack is resting and will soon be back to work on a trip at the end of the month. Going to Solvang and for wildflower pictures. Then may go up the coast a ways - should be nice weather and lots of flowers due to the many rains we have had.

And here in greater N. Iowa, we'll have an overnight low of zero to 5 above, and windchills -20 to -40.

At least it will be a dry cold....

Man what a day for the Dow.Hope this is a start but not getting my hopes up.

...from Egypt. Crammed two weeks of sightseeing into 8 days. What a whirlwind!

Can anyone say jet lag?

Costa Rica. Went down there to see my little sister. Her husband teaches there.

Althought it's supposed to be "dry season" at this time, I was not lucky with the weather; had rain almost every day for two weeks.

But what a change of scenery! Really nice people and green all over. Quite a change from the grey on white of a Montreal winter.

weather we are having in Chattanooga!

Much of the road on the way to the airport hadn't been plowed yet. The Vehicle Stability Control on my Toyota kicked in countless times.

I lost control of the car once, and the Camry gave me a stall-like warning sound of short beeps. It took me half a lane on each side of my car to regain control. Good thing no one was around, or I would've been the third accident on Peña Boulevard (the access road to Denver airport).

I just ordered a Samsung 58" plasma... had to refuse the shipment because of an annoying pink tint on an all white screen. I'm curious to see if I get any feedback here about it...

It's one day closer to Friday!!!

Last night the 50 inch started acting up with a buzzing sound and funny picture, today went to leave the house and found a cracked windshield on my Yukon from a rock chip the other day. What next. Have to wait a week to get someone out to fix the tv good thing it is still under warrenty.

Supposed to be 60 next week in Boise !!!

Still catching up with the sleep.hhiihhii

how can dealership sell new cars to auction house rather than to regular car buyers like us?

Hope things go better for you real soon.

I hate those rocks hitting the windshield.

Am also worried about our HD TV being on all the time, but so far so good.

Seems like a saw a publication that stated that HD TV's had a usage lifespan of 60,000 hrs on average.

Thanks, one good thing they called and are comming out today to fix the tv. That's better than before. Now I get to watch survivor on the big one tonight (Hopefully)

I had a Vizio that had a blank pixel, right out of the box. (Bought it at BJ's). I called Vizio, they shipped me a new one. This was about two years ago. Since then I've bought three more Vizio's - love them, love the price, love the service. Although haven't needed it since my first encounter.

... don't know if i've got another day in me this week ...

Hope everyone had a good week.

The weekend is going fast.

Wish NASCAR had a race today.

So Tony can come in 14th ???????????

He's come in 8th, three times this year in the cup series. Last race in Atlanta, from 2 laps down.

Got a real good view of the shuttle lift off from Kennedy Space Center at our home in Pasco County FL.Even seen the separation.

We forgot and didn't get ouside in time. But we did see the smoke trail.

Had my binoculars this time and really got a good look.It was a large smoke trail.

yup...

Drove up fron Hollywood to Deerfied Beach Peir, had a great view of lift off. I have been waiting over 40 years to see it. Awesome.

Watched the launch from the beach at the end of our street just North of Daytona Beach. Have probably seen and photographed 20 of the launches but never from the beach.
Was really great, clear skies, exhaust illuminated by the setting sun and an outstanding view of separation even without the aid of binoculars.

Of course, the ultimate ones for me to watch are the night launches - have watched 4 from Ponce Inlet, South of Daytona Beach - AWESOME.

We drove to Ponte Vedra Beach from jacksonville about 30 miles to watch it, The wife never seen one, The city lights and trees blocks out the view to the south of me. we were right on the beach and it was really a fantastic site, Watched it till it went out of site, when the boostes seperated and seen then start down. Next one she wants to go farther south,maybe we will go to titusville and get the full effect of it.

Hello again.

Hello to you!
