You have to go to the cruise in Burton on Wednesdays so you can park next to a horse Sandy.

They leave special trophies on the ground if you want one.

Looks like I need to post mine, too....

I got a white Christmas!!
https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...christmas.html
I never saw one in person, so I was happy. We walked the block Christmas Eve, I got a few pictures and made a snowball, but I could not stay out too long.
That is because i also got bronchitis or some kind of nasty bug right before the holidays... The fevers are just now subsiding and my head is still full of crap. No comments on that, either.

Af for gifts, I got nothing car or hobby related - just come clothes and a book, and a pair of slippers that you heat up in the microwave (which came in handy while being sick.) Well, my ladyfriend did get me a Furd t-shirt, but only because I emailed her the ad for it...
I got a few gift cards, but they cannot buy car parts.

Poo on those getting all the good stuff like tools and parts and stuff...

Wait, my neighbors gave me a bottle of Crown Royale, so all is not lost... Maybe that and some hot feet will kill the bronch bugs...

I'll let you have that trophy!!! LOL!!

Wednesday is usually the cruise in in Hudson that I go to, but I will try to go to Burton. God, I haven't been there in quite some time! You'll have to tell me where it's at and give me the info when the time comes!!

Well, I'm glad you got your snow, and enjoyed it!!! I hope you're feeling better!! We got about 5 inches of snow overnight, and it's snowing again now. I went out and brushed it off of my birdfeeders this morning - the poor birds were out there fluttering around, and the snow was all over the edges of the feeders and I felt bad for them!! The mourning doves eat off the ground, so I cleared them a space and put down seed.

I'll send you some pics of our winter wonderland when I get time. The roads were crappy this morning - lots of packed down hard ice they didn't get the salt to in time before everyone started driving. Our parking lot here is like a skating rink!

Well, have a shot, and get some rest!!

I wish I could, but I am at work now. If my company gave sick days, I would have taken one. Since they do not, I will be generous and share my joy with others... I will pop a few shots when i get home and enjoy some hotfoot...

Post some snow pictures so i can take a quick virtual vacation!

Thanks... Crown in coffee?? Never tried it, but sounds good. I learn more each day...
Like just how much crap my little head can hold...
And not to use my "rapidly disolving" camping toilet paper for blowing my nose with...
And that Santa NO LONGER delivers coal to people who have been bad.

That last one is a no brainer.
Coal is heavy and useful for heating your house. Heck, if you are REAL bad, you can get free heat for a year!
Bad people get styrofoam chunks in their stockings because they are highly abundant (just look alond any shoreline), lightweight, boring, and if burned, produces a sickening toxic smoke. They also do not provide a cool sound if smashed like bubble wrap would.

Place one shot of Nyquil at nite stand

Drink Nyquil
Drink Cognac

Say "nighty nite"

Then eat your grits with coffee [and Crown if ya want]

Jamsbo's correct if you want to sleep thats the right way to do it. I think the Nyquil has as much punch as the Cognac. My thoughts were for getting through the day. Hog belly and grits with fried eggs will get you motor running in the morning.

I don't have any cognac, need to get some. Which one is good?
I have been sleeping better, though i still often wake up sweating like crazy... Hog belly?? I hope you mean ham! I am sure Alice has had pig stomach but that is not for American consumption...Grits & fried eggs sound good - send some over, will ya??

IF I work from home noone knows! Heck, given how crappy I felt at work before, I don't think anyone would have been able to tell if I was drunk...

Try some Nassau grits sometime a la "The Coffee Cup in Pensacola, Fla

Cook sausage-crumble up

In the same pan

cook chopped bell peppers
cook chopped onions
cooked diced tomatoes
drain off greese

Thow it all in a big pot of grits and stir it up

It's a WON-A- FULL a WON-A-FULL

Rob,

I like Martell Cordon Bleu

Courvoisier has become swill since the Night Club Folks started drinking it with Coke.

Thanks , things have to improve soon hopefully. I go in on the 26th of jan. to have my neck fused and steel plate put in and I hope the bad luck doesn't follow me there. My girlfriends son (17) and my son (18 jan.1) have been a pain over the xmas season , I'd like to bury them together. There is way too much drama going on for my liking. I want to get back to working on the Olds but no funds now is going to delay what I wanted to do. I suppose I can always start the projects and hope for the best , at least I will be doing something I enjoy for a change of pace.

I know what you mean!! These kids today do have a lot of drama going on all the time! Even Nicole will say there's too much of it going on with her friends!!

I hope you let us know how you are doing and what's going on when you have your surgery... if you're able. Yep... go work on your car. It's a great stress reliever and ya gotta do something for yourself!

I'm glad I discovered car shows... I really enjoy going and looking at the cars, and talking to people! It's something I do for myself... and I don't care how much Larry and Nicole complain! I've given them plenty of warning that I'm not going to be around much next summer! Larry makes his snide remarks kind of joking/serious about how I love my car more than them... it's like, Oh for God's sake! I don't feel a bit guilty. No one or nothing gets neglected around the house, so leave me alone!! LOL! Hang in there Wolfie!!
