Me too. I'm hoping everything will be fine with her. Our thoughts are with you.

If those people want to spend the money THEY made then good. People like us can sell the stuff we build to them and it's good for the hobby.
Peace my brother.

Yeah, I'm not sure why I would spend MY million feeding and clothing people I don't know. After MY million is gone, there will still be people needing food and clothes. The poor will always be with us.

I am amazed at how many people there are out there with that kind of money to drop on toys.

Reminds me of a situation I ran upon in Morocco. There was an elderly crippled lady that we wanted to give some money to. Our guide/friend said that we had to sneak her the money or she would have it stolen from her by thugs.
There will always be poor, there will always be rich, and there will always be scum.

I'd rather buy it than cook it, but I've got the over fired up.

Goodmonring all,

Hope your having a great Friday!

I'm looking forward to the storms coming in this weekend. We need the rain & snow to help put out the wildland fire in S. Reno.

My kids are out of school today(teacher in service), so now I have to figure out something for them to do. My son cooked eggs & pancakes for everyone for breakfast, so that was a nice way to start out the day.

Have a good one guys!

Everything OK here. Spent four days over last weekend in Tucson for a family function, and just survived the regular weekly grind here for another one.

Off to provide medical transportation again this AM....

Haven't had one in years, but I remember those were surprisingly good. Swansons frozen chicken is good too.

FTE is screwed up this AM.

The site was unreachable for about 5-10 minutes this morning. Then I just had a post disappear into the ether. Nothing important, just chicken related.
