I hope the snow will only be in your area because I don't want it to be in mine

Good one ,reminds of when "Apollo 13" came out & I was talkin' to a young (21) lady about it & she blurted out "Don't tell me how it ends!!!"

She had no idea it actually happened

ROFL! Good one, too.

We got about 3" (7.6 cm) yesterday,but that's no big deal for us,it's when it gets like this that things get hairy (where's the road?!?)

Jealous!
We only have about 2 inches ( 5 cm) powder snow at the moment. So we can't even make the snow-princes we wanted to make. I am still hoping, though, that we get some serious amount of sticky snow this year.

Still snowing here about halway up the cats leg....will measure it later...grin

Have fun with the jam session and with your friend

[Frantic Freddie]

This is nice,got a call from an old friend/guitar player ain't seen in years,we had a pretty good band back in the late 90s,he's in town & wants to get together,told him his timing was excellent,I'm havin' a jam session next Sunday here at my house

His name's Tom & back when we played together he was in the National Guard & when he made Major of course we started callin' him Major Tom

That reminds me of another story.

One day at work it was really quiet and boring so the 3 of us started googling for houses in Sweden. On a certain photo of one of the interior one of my colleagues commented " Hey! That plate rack is from the Ikea! Do they have Ikea there, too?"

Just too funny and kind of cute, too.

Nice one

[Frantic Freddie]

Talkin' to a friend & was reminded of a funny story:

One time I was showing some houses to a client & the client's friend says "You could grow avocados here!"
I started to politely explain why they wouldn't grow here (soil,climate,elevation 7000 ft/2133m,1000 miles/1600km inland ) & she snapped at me "That's because nobody's ever tried!"

You can't fix stupid (I love Ron White)

How about this Dutch classic rhyme

Leentje leerde Lotje lopen.
Langs de lange Lindelaan.
Maar toen Lotje niet wou lopen.
Toen liet Leentje Lotje staan.
In de lange Lindelaan.

Translation
Leentje learned Lotje how to walk.
Along the long Linden Avenue.
But when Lottie did not want to walk.
Then Leentje left Lotje standing.
In the long Linden Avenue.

Kind of takes the charme out of it.

Als vliegende vliegen achter vliegende vliegen vliegen vliegen de vliegende vliegen vliegensvlug.

The translation isn't that charming.

When flying flies flying after flying flies the flying flies flying fly-fast.
