Again?


Yes, again.  Note the wind chill: six below.  But I take comfort in the fact that at least a few people are having a good time somewhere on the planet at this moment... perhaps in the south of France, on some Greek island in the Med, or down in Rio.  Like this:


Puritanism is sometimes defined as "the pervasive feeling that someone, somewhere is having a good time" and hedonism is the exact opposite.  You prolly know which camp beach I'm in on, Gentle Reader.

  3. Jesse said only old ladies went without their tops on the beach in Nice, which does not seem very nice to me. But then I am me.

  4. Minus 6?!?! Are you still in the HIE?

    Don't think I could do the topless beach thing. There's way too much gravity there.

  5. femme 1: So anyway, my idiot husband bought some new golf clubs.

    femme 2: golf clubs??

    femme 3: did he get some balls too?

    femme 1: yea right, what would he do with those...

  6. I'm with you Lou and Moogie, the girls just don't 'pay attention' like they used to.

  7. Heck, Moogie! I don't even go topless on the beach.

    Headed our way too, Buck. Schools already closed down ahead of another snow/ice storm.

    Crud...

  8. Perhaps, Sgt, you could put the 'movil' back in RV's name. My parents (grandparents by blood) did Lake Havasu in the winter into their eighties. Do Llannos Escatados (High Plains of New Mexico) in the summer and the Colorodo River in the winter, please. If you have the means, I highly recommend it.

    Benny for the kids: it was fun to visit my parents during the dark months. They have RV parks up and down AZ-95 to cater to your type. You might even catch some eye candy during spring break, though not quite like your example.

  10. I've been to Oasis State Park many times, and even got laid there once or twice. But I never saw anything like that photo.

  11. Darryl: Serving in the Med is about the ONLY reason I would envy the Navy. Well, Pattaya, too.

    Jim: You and me both.

    Lou: I've seen some pretty enticing old ladies in my time. But that's just me.

    There's way too much gravity there.

    Heh. Good one, Moogie! But ya know the interesting thing? The older I get the more I appreciate the effects of gravity. But I supoose there are limits. ;-)

    Femme: Well, OK...

    Deb: See my response to Moogie.

    Headed our way too, Buck. Schools already closed down ahead of another snow/ice storm.

    Hunker down, Andy. This too shall pass.

    Bob: I have the means to do as you suggest but I'm tethered to my local medicos.

    Anon: (eye-roll)

    Gordon: Heh! Good to see ya around these parts again.

  12. Duh, Buck. I forgot your relatively large convenience in that Canon APP is so nearby. I am getting delirious in this cold. Or perhaps the pic which made me think of Lake Havasu. Or both.

    "If you have the means, I highly recommend it." That's a famous line from an awesome movie. Something about a Ferrari. I also forgot you don't like such things (movie quotes) much.

    Another nasty cold night tonight, then things look up I hear. Broke some pipes here. Had a drip going, but I realized my mistake in that model: Even with heat tape, it can get cold enough (check Moriarty's low the other morning) that the well-side of the pressure tank (which doesn't flow between recharges) can freeze. And I used to help operate a pair of nuclear power plants. Yikes!

    Thank you Arctic Flow, for telling me why I don't live in the &$*#$ Arctic!

  13. Bob: You KNOW I feel yore pain about the pipes. This has been one helluva winter.

    And you're right about me and movies: we just don't get along.

Just be polite... that's all I ask.
