  1. Good morning, Liberty. As an extreme ‘S/F’ example; if we could draw from the rising oceans to allow gentle, evenly spaced, rains to fall across the Sahara, turning it into that continents bread basket ..... how would that effect the rest of the planets dominoes? As always .....
  2. Good morning badger, thank you article/attachments. It seems that it’s DIY Do or DIY Don’t. As always .....
  3. Good morning, Mrs J. Its probably the closest theme song available to announce the 17th year emergence. As always .....
  4. Good morning, Liberty. Yes, I was surprised to see the posting. His response, I believe, was a more fun, tongue and cheek although it was written as a serious reply. I never checked back to see any reaction. The folks in the Mid Atlantic forum are generally warm , welcoming and have well placed senses of humor. Of course considering the state of my senses I may have gotten the S19 mixed up with another but I don’t think so. As always ...
  5. Good morning Nibor and Liberty. It scared the “WTF” out of me. I haven’t checked but I could imagine how those folks reacted. As always ...
  6. Good afternoon all. S19 just posted in the Mid Atlantic forum, as a reply to Storm Chaser Chuck, that the current trends could lead to a DC to Bos snowstorm with Blizzard conditions. Could it be a possible vaccine side effect? As always ....
  7. Good evening Irish. I remember my grandmother telling me how she and her 1920’s Dyker Heights neighbors used to run out with shovels to collect the leavings of the numerous horse drawn vendor carts. Vegetable gardens provided a necessary extra for the households of that era. The more common , at that time, mounted police also provided good deposits. As always ....
  8. Good evening SS14. The season we just left is the one I’ll soon be a permanent part of. April being my birth month, I will always have a special fondness for. My favorite American poet, Paul Simon, said and sang it best; “ April come she will. When streams are ripe and swelled with rain” the summer and fall will follow until, as Paul says, “A love once new has now grown old” being alone and near the end give the words a greater meaning to me. As always ....
  9. Good morning A Z, I already received my 04/01 wake up call. My mirror wasn’t steamed when I got out of the shower. That did it. As always....
  10. Good morning DRWx, I got the P2 shot noon yesterday with no effect. After 19 hours it kicked in with all you’ve described plus mild nausea and aches in an instant. I went horizontal for two hours took some over the counter pain pills and am back to normal with the effects fading. I guess we know it’s working. Stay well, as always ....
  11. “Horn growth” you say. Thank you WWX. I just received my second ‘PZ’ shot today. Now, at least, I have something to look forward to. As always .....
  12. Good morning losetoa6, lovely photo, so peaceful. However in reference to being canceled, albeit temporarily, H2O’s point is well placed. As always .....
  13. Well done, Phineas. ( if you have the time ) I expect to see a screen play for ‘Tales of the NNE’ in short order. (Try not to cast H2O as the fellow walking in) As always ......
  14. I remember in my early USPS days I was just returning to the work floor when I heard screaming and a mob of employees, including supervisors, running full tilt out of the cancellation room. No smoke/fire or unusual sounds, what could it be? I walked into the room and there on a letter uptake belt was a snake. It was traveling opposite to the direction that the belt was moving and going nowhere. Having watched enough ‘ Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom’ I looked closely saw no fangs and knew at best it was probably an insect eater. I gently placed my hand on its head with my thumb under the lower jaw and lifted it up. The snake, which I also believed was a common garter wrapped itself around my arm and remained calm. From a distance, as no one would come near me, I asked if I could keep it. Bureaucracy kicked in immediately. I was told I would have to fill out forms to have it released to me. I placed it in a small box and transported it home and released it into the postage stamp. The backyard was covered with a bed of English Ivy at that time. I never caught sight of it again. The snake, as a joke, was probably dumped into a regular mail box. Thank you, Uniblab for kindling a long dormant memory. As always....
  15. Good morning, Will. Many of the species in our area are harmless and beneficial. It’s a shame that their institutional bad reputation is promoted more often by myth than by fact. As always ....
  16. Good morning Irish. It’s a pity the atmosphere can’t be five posted. As always ..... The alert bell for the Columbian Engine company tolls one last time. Thank you, fire fighter Jared Lloyd. As always ...
  17. Honestly Mike, even dead, would you really want that detached. As always ...
  18. The postage stamps brick, cement, stones and urban dirt gives way to some beauty, may we all find peace. As always ...
  19. Good afternoon, Tip. Deep Winter would likely be back in most places after that type of impact. As always .....
  20. Good morning Anthony. We could request Coastal Wx, of the New England forum, to arrange to have his heavy hitters perform a u tube recreation of the Broadway show Carousels rendition of ‘June is busting out all over’. Now that would make Spring a lot more interesting for many of our sub forums as well as ease our mourning for winter. As always ....
  21. A work of art Mrs J. Edibles and the palate, true partners in diversity. As always ....
  22. Darn it, d l, just when I thought I couldn’t find another two word phrase worthy of preservation for future use, you hand me another one. Thank you, as always.....
  23. Good morning GS 1717. Now that could certainly explain some of our post reactions. Judging from that good fellows hair he may be in the ‘been there and done that’ group. As always .....
  24. Good morning, Mattie g. If you could, please post a picture of your cheese babka. It was a favorite of ours. I must admit I haven’t had it since I’ve been alone. As always .....
  25. Good morning Don. Tradition/political considerations aside where ( if any place ) would it be best to take official readings/measurements for NYC? As always ...
