Chit Chat Thread for the week of April 2, 2012

In Maryland

May they lie in peace..

Wow amazing that you signed in at all!!

Recover quickly and hope you see 100% in both eyes!!!

We spent another night in the hospital last night. My daughter will be coming home today and miss a little more school, but it looks like there will be no lasting effects.

I'm very happy today

15 more days until Disney!

Hope everyone's having a great week!

wonderful weather in the NYC!

That's great to hear, JM. Hope she continues to get better day by day.

Hm. Today was really warm, and it looks to be like that for the rest of the week.

Another week, and one more week down until this class is over. Have a good week everyone.

I hear that Canada will soon be penniless.

Yet, in a manner of speaking... I think that we (USA) have already beat them to it!

Sadly, it is sure looking that way.

Today is lawn mowing day... oh, yippee.

Same here cut the grass after all the rain.

FRIDAY

A man walks into a drug store with his 8-year old
son. They happen to walk by the condom display, and the boy asks,

"What are these, Dad?”

The father matter of factly replies, "Those are
called condoms, son. Men use them to have safe sex."

"Oh," replied the boy pensively. “I've
heard of them in health class at school."

He looks over the display and picks up a package of three and asks,
"Why are there three in this package?"

The dad replies, "Those are for high school boys…
ONE for Friday, ONE for Saturday, and ONE for Sunday."'

"Cool" says the boy. He notices a
6-pack and asks, "Then who are these for?"

"Those are for college men," the dad answers,
“TWO for Friday, TWO for Saturday, and TWO for Sunday."

"WOW!" exclaimed the boy, "Then who uses
THESE?" he asks, picking up a 12-pack.
With a sigh and a tear in his eye, the dad replied,
"Those are for married men….\
One for January, one for February, one for March....."

A man is out shopping and discovers a new brand of Olympic condoms. Clearly impressed, he buys a pack. Upon getting home, the man informs his wife of his new purchase.

“Olympic condoms?”, she asks, “What makes them so special?”

“There are three colors,” he replies, “Gold, Silver and Bronze.”

“What color are you going to wear tonight?” she asks cheekily.

“Gold of course,” says the man proudly.

The wife responds, “Really, why don’t you wear Silver? It would be nice if you came second for a change.”

Glad to hear that JM. Kids are resilient - isn't it amazing?

Hello everyone and God Bless you all.

Tiger or Rory?

From ESA, the European Space Agency:

"The reference for Global Navigation Satellite Systems."

It's in early beta, but looks incredibly promising.

The technical density of some of the material, particularly some marked "Fundamentals," is staggering!

Take a look anyway, and enjoy!

I've had my Phil of Rory and Tiger! But if you insist I can live with Phil, Rory and Tiger finishing in that order.

Got ours done, too. Plus trimmed some of the bushes. I'm pooped. My wife & I are getting too old for this... and it's not even the hottest part of the summer yet.

Right with you on to old. It is hot and if we get the rain tonight and Friday. It will time to cut it again.

This sure has been a no winter season.Years ago I remember the same thing when we was on the beach in Dec.Not sure about all the high 80's for such a long period of time though.

Thank God Tomorrow's Friday

Need some of that warm weather in Iowa. Covering the plants so they don"t freeze tonight.

go devils

Have a great week!

Hi

Absolutely great day...

Hi all.

Got up to snow this morning and it is expected to snow until around noon. Great weather for tomorrow and easter sunday. (who woulda thought)

Weatherman got it wrong. No rain last night. Plenty of FL sun today.

Yea!!! I finished the 55 Chevy Seats and door pannels.

So tired. Can't wait for my husband to get the 454 in it so we can take our first ride in the car!! Been a long 4 years completely restoring it! Hopefully it will be finished this summer or fall.

Mgarledge, is it a BelAire 2 door hardtop by chance? My older brother had one of those (red and white) back in the early 60's and it is his favorite car of all time. Do you have a picture posted somewhere?

We were disappointed. We need the rain... bad. Our lake is way down.

FRIDAY.

It's not only Friday, it's good Friday. Have a great weekend everyone.

It is a 2 door BelAir hardtop. My id is the back seat and armrest after I finished it.

My husband, with the help of my brother, painted it Gypsy Red and India Ivory. It is his retirement project and the first car for him to restore. Will have to look for another project car when he completes this one.

I will take more photos later and change the id.

I see mgarledge joined 2 years and 52 weeks ago. Gee! That's almost 3 years.

Looks just like the car my brother used to own except I think the white paint and the white naugahyde on the seats on his was a little more of a cream color. But I am going from memory and it was a long time ago. Would love to see more pics of the car if you ever put them online. The paint on his was the original, but he had redone the seats.

The original color was not red and white, but this is the color he likes. I think it was yellow and white original. There was nothing but springs for the seat when we got it several years ago so I don't know what color the seats were. Had to make new foam and had to recover the seats without the originals to use as a pattern. It was a hard job but my husband is proud of the results.
It still has a long way to go before photos of the finished car, no engine, no wheels, and SMALL items like that.

@k6rtm

Nice find on the GNSS wiki. Puts a lot of information in one easy place.

Have a good weekend!

Gas price $1.39/L, or $5.41/g

Just about everything is toxic now days. Maybe I'll just stay in bed. Wait, can't do that, have to exercise. Sheesh!

Good morning.

Great Easter weekend here in Delawhere.

Happy Easter everyone!
