Kinda like 4H except not. You’ll never guess what somebody posted in the “greatest sentence ever seen or heard” thread! If you haven’t yet, check it out. And when I was setting up the links to all that birthyear stuff it made me “remember” that we share a similarity in time on the planet. Closer than most here, even. ---

Dammit, I know I have heard that second one before, but I can’t remember the circumstances where it was most effectivs and relevant. All that comes to mind is the thing about the landscaper telling his grounds crew as they were putting down sod, “Brown side down.” And that doesn’t have much to do with paint. Help! (Is it from Jack Handey, perhaps? That first one sounds like a Deep Thought.) ---

I just want y’all to know that my wife **Zoe** wants to join in the festivities here and wanted to say (I’m paraphrasing) “Of course I fit the qualifications. I’ve been married to this idiot for 28 years after meeting him on a computer before we even knew about the internet.” She’ll be along later. As soon as I give up the computer for her! ---

Yes, Banter Roosters can be quite beautiful … as long as they’re not chasing you. ---

> [@Vita\_Beata](#): > > Yes, Banter Roosters can be quite beautiful … as long as they’re not chasing you. Ever eat one to know it? I saw something recently (probably on SDMB) that suggested that the majority of packaged chicken meat is from roosters. I find that not just hard to believe but a little offputting. But, yes, Banty Roosters are pretty as those birds go. And they will try to get you. It’s probably been 40 years since I saw my latest one. ---

Just checked Yahoo!'s version of our temps here in Nashville and it’s 7 on the way to 29 for a high. It does look like warmer weather by the end of the week. Or Sunday anyway. Not much precip of any kind this go round. But cold enough for witches to wear warm underwear. ---

Where would I have seen the video of some gal in some cold place with a sloshing bucket of warm water (may have been fresh off the stove) that she poured out on camera and it froze before hitting the ground!
