Morning all. Another bright sunshiny day here in N. Ali-bama, about 62F now heading to 79F later. Have broken fast already and don’t have much outside of gym and coaching 7-year old soccer on the agenda. Might make a Wal-Mart run today although I have it on the plan for tomorrow, but hey, I’m retired, I can change things when I want to!

**Pilot** , glad you’re feeling better, have a good trip and hope the plane doesn’t tilt…(other MMP’ers, please see this post if you’re wondering what I am talking about-Pilot already is in that thread: [The Great Ongoing Aviation Thread (general and other) - #4718 by wolfpup](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-great-ongoing-aviation-thread-general-and-other/600499/4718)

**Lucky** , walnut/raisin/oatmeal cookies…now I’m hungry all over again…

**vroom** , never did the 4-10hr day routine, but the folks I knew who did it adjusted pretty quickly and seemed to enjoy the extra day off.

**doggio** , you said

I’m sure you meant pouch instead of couch, but thinking about a brown van with a bunch of couches inside it does give me a grin this early in the morning…

**JtC** , a pound of cooked bacon? Last me maybe 2 days if I wasn’t really hungry…which is why I don’t keep bacon in the house anymore…

**shoe** , lovely candle.

**boofae** , hope you feel better soon.

**Wheelie** , glad the company is going to take care of their folks money-wise, even if the work is less than optimal.

OK, need to be about the morning internetting and then plan the rest of the day’s sloth. Take care all.
