If you don't step on the joists while walking in the attic, you're gonna put a hole in your ceiling.

Yep, seen quite a few of those. Any bumps, bruises or scrapes?

Uh....did you learn this the hard way?

One of the things that make me go: "Hmmmmmm" is, Clark Griswold falling thru the attic ceiling onto his son's top bunk, and staying in the c-c-cold attic to watch home movies. Why didn't he just climb down the bunk and into the warm house?? Yep!! That's one of those things that makes me go "hmmmmmm"!!

Fortunately, it wasn't me, it was our electrician.

OMG...great minds... I was thinking the exact same thing when I was watching that movie this past Christmas season.

Although, you gotta admit he looked hilarious in the fur wrap and hat he put on to keep warm.


Sorry to hear about your ceiling Carol. You'd think an electrician would know better. Guess he stumbled?...

Now you know why I stay the heck out of the attic.

 

[heatair]

I was just wondering....

When is spring coming??

Amen, sista....

If a dinner plate looks clean, it probably is.

and always keep in mind when you eat at someone elses home,,that dogs can lick a plate as clean as a dishwasher.

After conducting my own taste test I have concluded that Cracker Barrel's coffee blend is much better than Dunkin' Donut's coffee blend. Of course, Kona Coffee beats them all....but I can't afford Kona on a daily basis.

We should start a fiend coffee club and meet once a week at Jim's office,,Jim does Kona .

I'm in. Just gotta get up early enough to beat the rush hour traffic in about 10 cities.

How much is the CB coffee by the pound? I need to improve my coffee. Maxwell House is starting to taste as bad as Folgers. They both run about 7-8 per pound.

The CB coffee is $7.99 a half-pound. I agree with you on M.H. & Folgers. I think they grind recycled lumber in with the coffee beans. YUK!!!

I'm in! I just have to get thru Orlando, Daytona, Jax, well.....most major cities on I-95 and head due west in Pennsylvania. Yep - about 18-20 hours should do it for me.

Do you have Kroger? I buy the Kroger Kona blend...pretty inexpensive. Not as flavorfull as 100% kona, but quite good!

Its a much more reasonable commute for me than some of you all...see you in the morning!

I was looking for something else... and this is what I found for you Kona addicts....

This is the BIG store all around us, and if you find something you like, I could easily work out some shipping for you!!! I don't know beans about coffee, so don't ask me to try any of them, but they have TONS of different KONA.. LOL

 

[DaveInTN]

I don't know beans about coffee....

Do you realize how funny that is? Good pun.

"I don't know coffee about beans."
