Good grief, if you watch the news in New York, you'd think the world was ending from all of the snow we got. Gee... maybe it's *not* a good idea to go outside in a blizzard. And gee, maybe it'll take a few days to get things back on track.

I know some people got stuck in it, and that really sucks. But some people are just dummies and complainers.

You know we can't have that sort of thing in new, changed, U.S.A.

It must have been man-made, just like global warming.

DOC! Long time-------Welcome back.

Remember this motto to live by:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO...What a ride!"

Can we have an Amen, brother?

So long, farewell, Auf Weidersehen, Good Bye, to you and you and you and you and you...............

Amen!

It is now ten years into the 21st Century. I have neither a flying jet car, a personal robot butler nor a vacation home on Mars. To top that off, wars have still not been abolished. Thanks for nothin', Arthur C. Clarke.

Wish more people thought that way.

I don't want to be one to hang on into my 90s, getting every conceivable medical test done, taking gobs of prescription medicine, etc. and have Medicare (the taxpayers) pay for it.

My wife's grandmother is one of those lucky folks who leads a rich, full life, still drives, volunteers 3 or 4 days a week, AND is in her mid 80's (at least, I can't bear to ask that woman's age!). She's a riot, and the life of the party. I sure hope I'm that lucky!

Yup! That's exactly, almost word for word, what I told my father 30 years ago. Just wait...........tee,hee,hee,hee.

With all due respect to Bloke - fruitcake is indeed tasty, nutritious and good for you. That's OK Bloke, the less fruitcake you eat, the more there is for me. I love fruitcake and I am not fruity or a fruit for it.

I want to live to 100+ and I have paid a butt load of taxes. I want to use all the SS I paid for, all the Medicare I paid for, all the everything that I paid for...

At 100+, I'll bet you will use/have used up far more resources than you could have ever paid in taxes.

I want to tie up traffic driving my wife to the early bird specials for dinner for years...

And when I die, I'm leaving instructions to do a couple of extra laps around what ever city I lived in at the time just to tie up traffic.

That's an admirable life goal to have, but don't worry... we'll driving test your old a** off the road so you won't be able to.

Um... I'm fat. I play tuba. Beer is good.

You are already running the latest version of Tubenet: There is no need to update.

I have recently discovered a new way to exploit my 100% work-at-home situation -- dog walking. I've watched over people's dogs over Thanksgiving, Christmas, and have another to walk during the day the whole month of January. We're talking maybe 15 minutes per walk, a chance for me to get off my butt a few times during the afternoon, and some easy *easy* money.

The only drawback (which really isn't bad...) is that the profit turns right around to buy food/supplies for my own dog. Plus, to pay people to watch her when *we* go out of town. At the worst, I'm breaking even though, and should pretty easily end up in the black, and that ain't bad!

When I get to Heaven and there are Tubas up there, I'll up-date all you guys and gals!

[Brown Mule]

Joe, on 12/11/12 I'm going to by one of those 35000 Yama Yorks on my Visa Card!

[Brown Mule]

You're probably absolutely right ,Joe, but that premium on that life insurance policy will hit the roof too ! I will update you on the price of contrabass Harps when I get to the pearly gates. (IN CC of course)

Update:

There is a nasty stomach bug running around at the school that has knocked out a number of the staff already on the 2nd day back from the winter vacation. Tonight, while rocking the baby, my stomach started doing flip flops so I'm really hoping that I don't have an UP date

I didn't know there were that many Yama Yorks in circulation.

When I get to Heaven and there are Tubas up there, I'll up-date all you guys and gals!

I'm in no hurry to find out. But, if there are no tubas in Heaven, I'm not sure I want to go.


However, I'm not sure the alternative is much better...

We in the South had better get ready. Seriously, this ice causes trees to fall on power lines and without electricity it gets cold real fast. Joe, you've got a lot longer driveway to shovel than anybody I know!

We're getting snow here in central Kentucky. I'll take that over ice anyday.
