It's morning!

Yes, yes it is.

And I hate it.
(until tomorrow that is)

Dang. Felt like night.

I wouldn't call my level of laziness epic, but it is highly noteworthy.

There's this crazy Martian who's always trying to find ways of removing (read: blow up) anything that obstructs his view of Jupiter

Venus.
Earth obstructs my view of Venus.

(just ignore any opinions he has about South'rn cuisine)

Hey!

Well... yeah, probably.

You tell 'em, Ponzie. I've gotcha your, er, back.

I see what you did there.

Barcelona, huh? That's on my bucket list and you just casually throw that out there.

So that's it. I'm calling it. Work week over.

I wish. My Tuesday starts in about 3 hours.

Last one standing in Cava Del Tequila after Avocado Margaritas gets to take Mama Coco home. And let me tell ya, if she invites you back to knock boots, she ain't talking bout no shoe factory.

 

[londontime]

We're about 20 min from Titusville

So you guys took the U's out of Colour, Flavour, Humour......... what a wasted opportunity.

 

[londontime]

Morning guys from an overcast London. Thoughts and vibes to anyone affected by those awful events 20 years ago. Still seems like it was yesterday, watching it with our hand over our mouths.

Quite the casual flex there. Hope it's been a good visit.

Barcelona, huh? That's on my bucket list and you just casually throw that out there.

Sorry guys, I wasn't doing a Johnny Big Bananas. I'm building a new store there, so it's a work trip, I should be out there about 4 times in the next few weeks. Barcelona, Madrid and Paris are very easy for us, it would be like you guys going to New York or Vancouver. You can fly there for less than 60 quid, and have a 4 star hotel weekend for less than couple of hundred. But these ones are freebies. My mob are also very generous in their travel allowances.
I was working from 8-6 building stuff in 32 degrees and, as we about a third of the way through building the store, no air con. If we could all take a moment to remember my underwear. It didn't make it.

I wish. My Tuesday starts in about 3 hours.

You should have your own zone, my friend.
PET. Ponzie Earning Time.

But in this group it's right about average.

Thats an interesting philosophical conundrum. If you try and be the laziest, do you automatically go to the bottom of the table?

Venus.
Earth obstructs my view of Venus.

Where's the Kaboom? There ought to have been an earth shattering kaboom?


Have a good day fellas, and let's raise one tonight to those who look after us on the front line.

 

[pkondz]

Morning folks.
Who doesn't love a nice early morning for work! Show of hands! Anyone? Hello?

So you guys took the U's out of Colour, Flavour, Humour......... what a wasted opportunity.

Oh!!!

Thoughts and vibes to anyone affected by those awful events 20 years ago. Still seems like it was yesterday, watching it with our hand over our mouths.

Does feel like yesterday. Some things are indelibly etched into our collective consciousness. That is one.

Sorry guys, I wasn't doing a Johnny Big Bananas. I'm building a new store there, so it's a work trip, I should be out there about 4 times in the next few weeks. Barcelona, Madrid and Paris are very easy for us, it would be like you guys going to New York or Vancouver.

It's all good. I realize that it's practically "next door" for you. But it's not like going to Vancouver for me. While the distance is similar (1,870km to Vancouver from Winnipeg vs 1,138km Barcelona from London) the cost is not. It would be about £115 - £400 ($200-$700CAD.) Most common price around £225/$400CAD

You should have your own zone, my friend.
PET. Ponzie Earning Time.

I second that!

Where's the Kaboom? There ought to have been an earth shattering kaboom?

So disappointing. This has made me very ANGRY! VERY ANGRY INDEED!

 

[londontime]

It would be about £115 - £400 ($200-$700CAD.)

Oof. Yeah, I just assume prices transfer over.

Oh!!!

I'd certainly be interested in real estate there. I could sit on the balcony and look at the, er, balconies.

So disappointing. This has made me very ANGRY! VERY ANGRY INDEED!

But I will get you with my Disintegrating ray pistol..
(pulls trigger)
Well, whaddya know.
It disintegrated.

Oh dear, I got the silly thing in reverse.

It certainly does. Still remember watching the second plane hit and trying to figure out what was going on.

Yeah...
"Guess what? A plane hit the World Trade Center in NYC."

followed by

"What the hell?!?!?!?"

[Terra Nova guy]

Well, once again it's been some time since I posted. I guess that's just how I roll now.
Wanted to say hello and in case @declansdad or @pkondz happened to notice on Canadian news, my hometown got hit with a hurricane last night. (Hurricane Larry - sounds more like an annoying cousin coming to visit rather than a weather bomb).
Wasn't too much rain but pretty nasty winds - category 1. Got up around 140 km/hr, or 87 mph The house was shaking and creaking which kept me up most of the night. Felling tired today but at least the winds have died down and the sun is out right now.
Everything is OK with my place. I lost a tree in the back yard. Neighbours lost trees as well and one guy had his fence blow down. But as they say it could always be worse.
I can't imagine how much worse a category 3 or 4 must be. I hope I never have to experience it.
Thats all I got for now guys. Hope you are all doing well. Keep the drinks cold for me until I come 'round again.

Glad you came through it okay. Saw a short video snippet of the winds.

Well it was on the news HERE also. I remwmber thinking hope Jeff gets through okay. Knew you were close to the coast
Glad you made it okay.

As far as cat 3 & 4, our house down here are mostly cinder block, so they withstand the winds well and don't typically creak.

 

[CapeCodTenor]

What's up, Gents! Well, I slept in and didn't make it down Cape this morning for some sunrise pics, little annoyed, but I did, however, make it down to the town dock and got some pics, which isn't far from where I live. There were no clouds, so no pretty colors, but I did get some pics, see below. I think if I had made the trip down Cape, about an hour to where I wanted to go, and there were no clouds to bounce the colors off of, or colours, for those who spell it that way, I'd been annoyed. Having a great day off today. DD slept at Nana's last night, so the Mrs. and I had a date night last night, and with the Mrs. at a couple of gigs, I got to do some work around the house. No, really, I did. Stop laughing. Laundry's done and cleaning is coming along quite nicely. Not sure what I'm going to do tomorrow, but it'll be with the family. Well, have a good day, gents.

Cotuit Bay




Meet Chewie, the dog, not the guy piloting the boat. According to his owner, Chewie loves to go boating.

We all have our own set of standard operating procedures. :

Wait! There's an SoP?! You mean I've been winging it this whole time and I didn't have to?

You most certainly should.
I suspect you're better at it then you let on as well.
And if you think of it, share a few 'round here. I'd love to see some.

I know I'd love to see some pics.

As for advice...
There's this crazy Martian who's always trying to find ways of removing (read: blow up) anything that obstructs his view of Jupiter (or what ever else might be the object of his inquiries). He'll have some pretty good tips when it comes to photography.

Yeah, Marvin's crazy.

Getting up for some sunrise pics Down Cape might be helpful.
And we'd get to see some of the handy work.

I slept in a little too late, but I did get up.

Still, that's a nice business trip.

Yeah, I dread a cat 3 or 4 hitting the Cape. I has happened before, but not often.

I was watching to see if it would hit you guys and heard this morning it had. I was wondering if you had power.
