8:44 am

penquis

yup...

8:44 am

penquis

the 81 other people on the site are quietly working away on the grid...

8:45 am

saanichcat

Leaf opened the PB, there must be some goodies

8:46 am

penquis

always!...

8:46 am

penquis

trying to get the grid done in case I lose power....

8:50 am

saanichcat

good luck with the storm

8:51 am

penquis

thanks...1500+ out of power in my county so far....

8:52 am

penquis

it's like a blizzard with rain instead of snow....trees still have their leaves and that makes them more vulnerable with the winds...

8:55 am

crosshair

Good morning, everyone. NBT/NBS.

8:55 am

penquis

hi crossie...

9:00 am

crosshair

Just found a nice re 6/6/8 combo---what you do to the spark on very old vehicles.

9:02 am

Howdy, Hurshy, pen

9:05 am

hurshy

hi

9:20 am

hurshy

my feet are cold!!!

9:20 am

hurshy

i'm so happy!!!!

9:20 am

penquis

whatever floats your boat, hursh.. ;o)

9:21 am

hurshy

it means fall is here!

9:21 am

penquis

ah, ok...

9:32 am

penquis

there was a typo in our online newspaper....said the wind was gusting to 630 mph....i would not be around to post this if it were!....

9:32 am

hurshy

lol

9:35 am

mael

hello everyone

9:35 am

hurshy

hi mael

9:36 am

mael

windy and drizzly here in MA, that was a soggy soccer game I just went to

9:37 am

penquis

hi mael...

9:38 am

dan2bit

perfect windows open weather in DC

9:38 am

hurshy

lol

9:39 am

penquis

looking forward to nice weather tomorrow...but not today!

9:39 am

hurshy

i read that and i was like "there's a WINDOWS Open now? sponsored by microsoft? what is tennis coming to??!"

9:39 am

dan2bit

hahaha that would be a great sponsorship

9:39 am

penquis

lol...

9:41 am

dan2bit

if Morrison and Manzarek were still alive, they could get a Doors reunion tour sponsored by Windows

9:41 am

hurshy

i'm not sure i can see Jim Morrison willingly embracing such a thing

9:42 am

hurshy

besides, musicians ARE the draw, they don't need sponsorships to make money

9:42 am

hurshy

but i'm doing it again. i know it's a joke and it's funny but then i respond to the point seriously.

9:43 am

dan2bit

fair point. he would have had to be a very different man to live to 81

9:44 am

dan2bit

touring is expensive though - one of my favorite bands got a tour sponsored because they wrote a (pretty good) song called "Southern Comfort" ;-)

9:44 am

hurshy

well i suppose smaller bands...

9:45 am

hurshy

but like Taylor Swift, all i hear about is how expensive her concert tickets are

9:46 am

MollyL

Something that wii forever perplex me

9:46 am

MollyL

Or will

9:47 am

hurshy
