30.6° but it feels like 30.1°.

Seriously? What the heck is that?
Do I care if it feels 1/2° colder?
How do they quantify that? One half a ******* degree?

I'd better run to the store and buy all the milk! The End Times are nigh!

I went up stairs to do two things. I did two things while I was up there. Unfortunately, they were not the two things I originally went up stairs to do.

I might have to start writing notes about the things I want to do.

Sigh...

I cannot recall who it was but I saw a bit about memory - Bill Cosby or George Carlin maybe where he explained that your memory is in your butt. You think of something you want to do and get up to go do it and promptly forget but when you back to where you started as soon as you sit on your butt you remember what you got up to do in the first place.

Perhaps part of a different bit and why I am confusing the too - was a bit about why do we look up when we are trying to remember something? is there information floating around above us? and does that explain when we look down when we don't want to know something or answer a question, because we know the answer is floating around up there and if we look then we will be compelled to answer.

So apparently you must have gotten up to do something, sat back down 2 minutes later and posted the same message again. My good man, I believe you have proven the "butt" theory.

On the other hand, you got post number 4567. Has to be a good omen.

My son called to tell me the temperature is going down to the high 20s in southern AL.

It will be in the 30s here in eastern MA by tomorrow night.

I may have to move to the equator.

4570 is a really good number unless you are on the wrong end of one!

High of 34 outside of Memphis today. I got a really good parking spot at the golf course.

Let me know if you find a good area. Gotta be gun friendly and warm!

And why do you park in a driveway and drive on a parkway?!?!

The cold weather across the USofA is the result of the Devil opening the Gates-of-Hell (TM) and letting out the cold resulting from the Cleveland Browns taking FIRST PLACE in the Division! But look at the bright side! The storms and cold have grounded the flying pigs and you won't have to clean up THOSE DROPPINGS!

It is cold here today. Firemen have a lot of work because people are trying to stay warm and causing a number of fires . Be careful!

Right you are!
When I was younger, I was a volunteer fire fighter in a rural area in the Southwest. The majority of our structure fires were heater related in the winter.
Wether auxiliary heaters, overloaded electrical cords, wood stoves and dirty flues, or kitchen ovens, most of our fires could be traced to improper heating.
Be very careful.

Heck with the cold!
I got a steel plate and a bowling pin...
I'm going to the outdoor range tomorrow before the snow flies, which is predicted later in the day.
I can blaze away with semi-autos with some small hope of collecting brass.

A snow fly. Who knew?:

Patty Melt

Ingredients

• 1 stick Butter
• 1 whole Large Onion, Halved And Sliced
• 1-1/2 pound Ground Beef
• Salt And Pepper, to taste
• 5 dashes Worcestershire Sauce
• 8 slices Swiss Cheese
• 8 slices Rye Bread

Preparation Instructions
In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat. Throw in the sliced onions and cook slowly for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and soft.

In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, salt & pepper, and Worcestershire. Form into 4 patties.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a separate skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties on both sides until totally done in the middle.

Assemble patty melts this way: Slice of bread, slice of cheese, hamburger patty, 1/4 of the cooked onions, another slice of cheese, and another slice of bread. On a clean griddle or in a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter and grill the sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown. Remove the sandwiches and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Turn the sandwiches to the skillet, flipping them to the other side. Cook until golden brown and crisp, and until cheese is melted.

Slice in half and serve immediately!
