Good morning Tidal. It was good back then, being 7' and bulletproof, while walking around behind a steel rod.

Good Saturday am Folks.
Nice job on the OP, pioneer.
Alternate JOTD
A reporter walks into a bar in Breaux Bridge.
He's been sent by his editor in Monroe to get a human interest story, and so he walks up to a guy in coveralls and offers him a drink in return for the story of the best day of his life.
"Best day? Well, that must've been the day that Boudreaux asked me for help. You see, his pretty little wife Marie had wandered out and gotten lost in the bayou. So we put together a search party and went looking for her. Just before sundown, we found her..."
This is great, thinks the reporter.
".. and then we all fricked her. Best damn day of my life."
"Holy shite," yells the reporter, "that's terrible. I can't print that. Here, have another drink, and tell me about the second-best day of your life."
"Second-best, huh? That might've been the day Thibodaux's prize hog broke out of its pen and got lost in the bayou. He was mighty attached to that hog, so we put together a search party and went looking. Just before sunset we found it. Then, we all fricked it. Not as great as Mrs. Boudreaux, but pretty damn good."
"Damn it, man, I can't possibly print that story," says the reporter despairingly. He decides on a different tack. "How about another drink, and you tell me about the worst day of your life?"
The little Cajun's face falls. "Worst day of my life? Well, that had to be the day I got lost in the bayou..."

It fricked LA up pretty bad, too. I was 11. My parents had a pin oak that they hated, our neighbors had a carport but wanted a garage. Tree fell on carport. It was a win-win.

Good morning Liz. We are getting tons of hot today, with widely scattered hot. Did you see the thread with the storms swelling off of Africa? One of those two is going to get us. It is tradition now.

Wanna throw a hurricane party with me? I think we would be woefully unprepared, but have a helluva good time!
