Now that's something to bragg about, and a Christmas present for one and all.
And now you'll get your wish, someone to wash your canastas' and daily. Yo Ho Ho and gitty up goooo.

ROSE said...

Yay! I've started Christmas shopping!! Ok, so it's only 1 thing & I don't know who's getting it, but a start's a start, right?! ;)

Hunker down - more snow's on the way & this time, it's bringing its evil friend, ice!

Anybody gotta U-Haul? We'll split the gas & go somewhere warm & sunny!

What you been drinkin, girl?
As far as the move to warmer places, if your leaving the hubby behind, I'll rent a bus.

Yesterday it was warmer in Bangor Maine than it was in Miami Florida.

It's not really looking like there's anywhere in the US where it's warm & sunny - may have to cross the border.

I bet with an inch of new snow on the ground today, that if the teachers had to lose a days pay there would be school in Clayberry.

And before the argument starts that junior won't get back home if it snows every bus on the lot has tire chains. The only problem is they would have to hire someone to put chains on the bus because the 'todays' driver wouldn't have a clue as to what chains are for.

Dec 16 a For those in town, Rite Aid is now a distributor of Clay County's locally owned and operated newspaper, The Communicator.

You mean they have the Free Press for sale there now.

Is the Free Press still in business?

When I was in school, the only decision about school on a snowy day was where or not the buses would put chains on.

I would say you didn't have a Winter and spring break and go to school until the middle of June either. May 7 used to be the last day of school so kids could help farmers get the first cut of hay in. Guess they are still helping but the Grass is different now as they smoke it instead of baling it.

ROSE said...

I had a winter & spring break & went to school through June & *still* didn't have the snow days kids today have. In fact, the bus drivers just lit up another cigarette & stepped on the gas. At home, we just threw another bag of kitty litter in the trunk & away we went.

Four out of 5 school days this week canceled & frankly, I'm GLAD!! Though the missed Christmas dinner saddens me ...

All they have to do is go to school all next week to make up for the snow...

Dec 17 p Roads have been so bad, the garbage trucks have been unable to serve their customers. Waste Management will have trucks parked at the Rt16 / Rt 4 intersection Saturday morning from 6:30 am to 10:30am. Bring your garbage over for disposal Saturday morning only.

No when you pay the bill this time around deduct one weeks pay and let them know the contract you have with them is for weekly pick up not once a month or whenever they feel like getting around to doing what they are paid to do. PSC will back you on that also.

It looks like Saint Nicholas doesn't want y'all to celebrate the legend of his life this year only from home maybe. Due to the weather created by the powers that be.

WTF

What does that mean? Weather Turns Foul?

Yeah Jesus doesn't like the way his (not real)birthday is being celebrated. Too many merchants going to Florida for the winter. And that ain't no handwriting on the wall.

If you don't think all the above is true then why is California predicted to get 15 FEET of snow. The wages of sin is death.

Anonymous said...

sherlock said...

no, seems to have been hunter having auto trouble, still seems odd though,but story seems legit, from VARNEYTOWN apparently.

Anonymous said...

Hunting at night? where did u come up with posey?
Still sounds strange to me. But who am I?

Anonymous said...

Bet you wouldn't swear that story to be true, on a stack of Bible's.
Oh, I forgot, you don't believe in God and the Bible.

sherlock said...

wonder where that last weirdo came from. what are you suggesting. Ihave more info , didn't see the need to go farther. if you are a police officer and want info, it's available. have a name the man gave me and a ph. no that doesn't match his story. a neighbors ,I think. if something is going on let me know.

Not to worry the January thaw is coming right on time.

with 18 inches of snow on the ground it won't get here a minute to soon.

Sherlock. U got the name wrong. Just so you know. And the number was right he just didn't get an answer. I used to have a lot of faith in your comments. LOL

Anonymous said...

so, things go bump in the night

Anonymous said...

Wonder who the crooks really are?

sherlock said...

seems the hunter might have been Cpl. Bailey. got the name for the ph. no off the white pages. so the name goes with the no. and the address. the name given me was very likely false. havn't checked yet. so the plot thickens. and as SOUTHERN BOY says WTF.

and we never know. Dr. Kevorkian might be lurking in the bushes.
