    Right now we are on the snow to rain , all snow line for Saturday.  I wonder which it will be!

    The liquor store was packed.  Everybody drinking on New Year's Eve. 

    I got a 6 pack of Budweiser and will probably have 2 or 3 at the most.

      Why not buy a 2 or 3 pack of Bud and have 6 at the most?

      Made some fresh eggnog. Finishing programming an Arduino project. Then, I'm spiking the eggnog with cinnamon whiskey.

      Liquor stores around here seemed busy as I drove by...I'm waiting to drink a beer since my cough has not fully gone away.  I truly am getting better each day though.  Just had a belt of NyQuil!

    I stopped taking green tea extract for now.  I thought I would have a major caffeine withdrawal headache as there is a ton of caffeine in it.  But it has been close to a week now and no headache.

      I like the health benefits of tea,  but only occasionally would take tea extracts or capsules...I'd much rather just drink iced tea on occasion...

    It snowed a 1/3 to 1/2 inch last night.  That's as much as we saw all last winter.

      Last winter my town got a good four dumps of snow: three of them were in the 3"-4" range, just enough to make driving annoying for a day.  One snowfall, however, was a good 13".  So far this year, nothing.  I hope it stays that way - snow looks pretty but it can be a hassle to deal with.

      We got an inch with another quarter inch due tomorrow...23% Lower than our historical average this far into the season...We have Hazardous Weather warnings and a Freezing Fog Advisory.  I'll be driving in it tonight, but then off a couple of days.  We need more snow overall so we don't get a drought this Summer!

    I always under estimate how much spaghetti I'm making.  "This can't be enough.  I'll add a little more."

    1. GoldLeader

      Yeah,  I always end up with a ton!  Seems like a good value though :)

      More spaghetti than a Clint Eastwood western.

      I always make enough for two servings, and then tupperware half for the next day.  Warms up in the microwave fine.

    Today at the McDonald's drive thru, the lady in front of me paid for my order and told the cashier to wish me a merry  Christmas.  My order was $15.87.

      I've had that happen a few times at a local Starbucks or whatever.  Very nice.

      I have done this a few times before.  Just a nice gesture to your fellow man.  I have been the recipient once as well.  Pay it forward.

    The first thing at Christmas  that's such a pain to me is putting up the Christmas tree.

      I think that's the best line from the movie (and there are a lot of good lines).

    Best turkey I ever had yesterday.  Pumpkin muffins were great.   But the green beans and the mashed potatoes were weird.

      I always find my favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner are all the veggie side dishes.

      I can eat a turkey sub any day, but the things like peas and carrots, Brussel sprouts, broccoli, etc. I never cook at home for myself.

  14. Atarian7

    Modern/current hard rock seems so cheesy to me.  They are trying so much to be very hard, it just comes across that way.

  15. Atarian7

    I had a turkey sub today at Subway.  Having turkey tomorrow at a relative's house, and bought a turkey breast for us to have here Friday. "love to eat turkey..."

    Cherry cordial Hershey's Kisses  - I don't know why they only sell them this time of year.  They're losing business the rest of the year.

      Plus you can wash down those Cherry Cordials with some Egg Nog spiked with Cherry Brandy (Or @bent_pin's Cinnamon Whiskey!) so there's some more Seasonal Fun for you...

      Damn!  That reminds me that Tom & Jerry batter goes on sale sometime around this time of the year too!  May have to run up to the liquor store today!

      @cvga Haa!  Funny because,  now that ya mention it,  After falling asleep on the couch I woke up and changed the VCR clock,  which is the trickiest one I have to deal with...

      I work overnights and I'm salary. They got an extra hour out of me. But I get it back in April so it balances.

    Maryland and Penn State today.  Maryland is ranked 48th and Penn State is ranked 9th.  Rooting for the upset!

      @carlsson Hey does this mean you bought a used car?

       

      I remember when you were on the hunt for one.

      @GoldLeader Yeah, did you miss my black Renault Clio?

    4. GoldLeader

      Totally missed it!   Even though that seems familiar,  like maybe I remember you mentioning it as a contender...

       

      Well,  @carlsson  Congrats!

    Congratulations Texas Rangers.  I don't know why but I don't like Arizona.  (The team, not the whole state.)

    Can't watch "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" unless you have Apple TV+.  Those bastards.

      Plenty of options at my end. The original Paramount DVD, the remastered Warner DVD, Warner's Peanuts 1960's Collection DVD boxset, the regular Blu-Ray + UHD Blu-Ray boxset of the three iconic holiday Peanuts specials, my Xbox 360 & Xbox One where I own it digitally off the Xbox video store, and lastly Vudu where I redeemed the digital code from the Blu-Ray boxset.

    Last night I was dreaming that I was biting into an ice cream cone, and I woke up biting my remote control.

      If he runs out of time, he can just set the clocks back a few more minutes.
