Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Drawing salve, as hippie as it sounds, is good for an incipient boil/pimple. Well, a salve that's actually Ichthammol.

The science, as I understand it, is that it irritates the site, thins the skin a little, increases blood-flow and bobs yer uncle, the little bitch crests. I've used it on ingrown hairs all too often.

Rite aid carries it as draw out salve. Youll need to cover it with a band aid.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

No BBQ is worth that wait.

I dunno. I'd wait that long for some proper Alabama tangy red-sauced barbecue, especially if I got a lot of the crispy charred end bits in my pulled pork sandwich.

1.5 hours is a long time to wait for food. I'm about to decide what to go get for lunch, myself.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

It is raining here steady for going on 2 hours and temps are dropping. Forecast is for continued rain until about 6 pm when temps will reach freezing and it will change to snow, so if that happens, we'll have 7 hours of rain turn to ice and then a dusting of snow over top. That should be awesome for road conditions.

Last week I had daffodils bloom.

AAaand this is the part where everything starts to hurt from the shoveling. Mainly my wrists and back. Flat on the floor for a bit and then I'll go swim.

All we have is a wind advisory.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have got to get out there to clear ice and slush. It is so hot out!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The BBQ was not worth the two hour wait, though it was quite good. The bread pudding was almost worth it.

That would have to be some bread pudding!

I give up. There is still nothing to be done about the inches-thick ice in one little spot.
