Oh, I see. Basically because there isn't a quick fix if the power does go out in your area? Don't mean to sound rude. But I assume it could be out for hours warning you to get into safety mode.
I just googled "lightning in the winter" Holy smokes there are some good vids on Utube of close encounters with lightning.

Howdy Man/Sask.

Sorry to hear about your Grandfather Randy. It's a tough person to lose. My mom told me my Grandfather and I became very close when my dad was killed. I was just short of 3 at the time. It was a hard loss for me. I now have a personalized licence plate with his name on it.

A bunch warmer here now. The weather turned a bit on Monday. With the warmer temps comes the white crap though.

Gerry said something about dining at the "Y"

Morning all, I see some white powder in our future. Sadly I cannot even get excited about it.

Randy I've come to the conclusion that you need a hobby. I mean, the ice ball is cool, but 5 pics, including transporting it to your office for further scrutiny? I'm really starting to wonder...hahahaha...

I have to stop watching Pinks-All Out. My wallet and cheque book are itching something fierce to buy or start building a race car.

FYI I do have a few hobbies... and one includes taking pictures of weird, random objects and posting them online for other's viewing pleasure . As for a race car, you have one sitting in storage . Ever take the Cobra down the 1/4 mile?

Happy Hump day mornin'all. Randy: That orb reminds me of a horror movie I saw situated in a remote northern community. Don't feed it after midnite. We're supposed to get a storm this afternoon, 4-6 inches and 40mph winds. Have a great day guy's.

Gooooooooood Chilly morning everyone!!!

Randy: No, I sold that one along with 3 others. I didn't put it on Kijiji but the guy who bought the little Alpine worked me over for it when he saw it on the bench.
That's a pretty interesting ice ball there.......Sherms right, you need a hobby lol

Howdy Steve!!!

Zip, thanks for chimin in!! That's an unfortunate but interesting story. To have your pops name on the plate is pretty darn cool IMO!!

Sherm, you have the muscle car to do it!!!!!

Wish me luck today, see the doc today for the hernia!! Hopefully I can get booked in, fixed, healed up and back to NORMAL. I'm not used to this laying around thing.......
