OFFICIAL THREAD about "NOTHING"

I want my boy to be an athlete

my wife's family is a bunch of hicks and willl make every effort to channel his athletic ability into crap like racing, hunting, and fishing.

I have 10 years to prepare for this; pondering how to strategize !

[clears throat] somthing wrong with that? He could do both. mid november would be tough for non-hunting sports. Its kinda like the superbowl.

6 lemon drops are very tasty. 7 and the roof of your mouth disintegrates.

Thanks for hashing that out for us.

I've been in Maui all week....have to head home on Saturday......prepping for winter in AK.

Nothing like an evening swim in the warm pacific to sooth the soul.

My aunt lived in Kotzebue, AK for two years teaching 1st grade. First year it was cold as hell and no snow. The second winter was warmer and like 200" of snow or something silly like that. She has pictures of the snow higher than the houses roofs.

Alta Ski Area Snowfall Tops 700 Inches
Articles - News - Resorts


Alta, UT - It happened at the very end of Alta’s snowfall measuring for this ski season on Thursday.



For consistency's sake, Alta measures seasonal snowfall from October storms, when the accumulated snow does not melt and forms a portion of the measurable base depth for early season, through 4 a.m. on May 1, giving Alta a sound statistical base to track season to season.


On the afternoon of April 30, Alta’s seasonal snowfall total measured 688 inches, according to Titus Case, snow safety director. “We were on track to go down with the 2007-2008 ski season being the fourth snowiest in 28 years,” Case reported Wednesday. “With this evening’s storm, it may be possible to reach the 700-inch mark.”

As of 4 a.m. on Thursday, Alta Ski Area reported snow accumulations of 14 inches, bringing the 2007-08 seasonal snowfall total to 702 inches. This makes the current ski season the third snowiest in Alta’s 28-year measuring cycle and the season snowfall average now stands at 547 inches. By the time the storm ended later on Thursday, 22 inches had fallen.

In past decades, skiing at Alta sometimes continued into May. The Utah ski resort closed for this season this year on April 20.

Just so you know, finding a nice halal restaurant in DC is not as easy as one might imagine.

Dating a muslim are we?

According to:http://www.zabihah.com/sp.php?l=washington%2C+dc

There are 44 in Wash, DC including Popeyes Chicken!!!

Guess the key word is "nice".

[MJZiggy]

Key word is nice. Pizza and chicken joints abound.

Should be fine going to any medi type place. Arab cuisine (kabobs, pita, hummus) doesn't really lend itself to upscale.

If Ty were looking to eat at a nice halal restaurant, Ty would look more towards muslim countries like Indonesia/asia or India.

Take'em to a nice jewish deli...they are usually Halal.

Took in a puppy in need of a home this weekend to see how he would get along with our dog. Didn't work so well. I will NEVER do that again. Amazing how attached you can become with a dog in 2-3 days.

[MJZiggy]

She didn't like him?

[GrnBay007]

She didn't like him?

She liked playing with him ....for a bit, but puppy didn't know when to stop. I def don't know A LOT about dogs but our Maggie has been having accidents in the house this weekend and she never does that. Don't know if it's nerves or what...but don't want that going on. Oh, and we use a kennel for our dog when we are at work/school. Puppy has never been in one and that was a nightmare and we never did get her in there this weekend.

The puppy is 8 months old (still considered a puppy, right?) and it's sad...he's so skinny and you can tell he hasn't been treated very well. I am so hoping a co-worker will take him. Have to make that call soon. Keep telling myself worst case the puppy goes to the Humane Society where it should get adopted quickly.....young, cute and pretty much housebroke. He didn't have any accidents in the house but is not good about letting us know he has to go.

I just "wasted" 2.5 hours at work catching up on Saturday-Sunday posts, when I need to be getting returns done as the tax season deadline approaches. Some of the back & forth personal bs i skipped. I can't wait for kickoff. Don't have time to grill up anything great, but leftovers, chips & cheese and some High Life I bought to support my WI heritage will do nicely.

Client called this morning and wants to drop his tax stuff on Saturday. I told him to get in here ASAP and he will be lucky to get it done. Way to procrastinate for 5 3/4 months and then dump it on me with 4 business days to finish.
