Aww hellz no. That just ain’t right. I wonder, if you rub their bellies do they flatten out and are frisbee tossable like horny toads were when I was a kid.
Nuts I am pleased that their idiocy puts cash in your pocket but I would be telling people I am on anti elephant patrol.
For dealing with flood waters a Mae West is highly recommended

Not yet, but it’s a toss up between the floods reaching me and the wind blowing me out to sea. The weather today is truly 'orrid.
Everyone’s on pins and needles, waiting for the snow.
My home phone system has been getting a real workout - DH and I are both working from home, with our respective office lines forwarded here.
The grocery store looked like the day before Thanksgiving this morning. The produce section had so many empty areas you might have thought the store was closing. Likewise meat and bread. At least some people are having something other than milk sandwiches. (bleargh!)
Suddenly I fear that folks want to hurl marine life and large mammals at me. Where could such a notion have come from I wonder!
Still icky, rainy, cold here. Also the heat in the orifice is actin’ all wonky. I’m told they may shut off the heat to the backside of the buildin’ which is where I am. If’n that happens, to da cave I go. Fine by me. I want to make a beastloaf for dindin. Maybe some mac ‘n cheese, steamed cabbage (I have a cabbage that needs to be used) and some cornbread. Soul warmin’ comfort food on a cold day.
I talked to OYKW a few minutes ago. The auditors have left. They are fool enough to believe they can get back to Etlanner today. I hope they can but if’n I were them I’d stop in Macon (they’re goin’ up I75) which is about 80 miles south of Etlanner and stay there. They could wake in Macon and eat bacon!
…It is a Science Experiment.
Go science 
Jim the “science guy”
Laundry is done, watching Olympic hockey and making brunch.
A trebuchet would work, too.
A gallon sized baggie would work for Cardinal fish.
Making phone calls is frustrating work.
People aren’t in the offices and I have to leave a message.
So I called insurance to let them know I am not renewing as opposed to just not paying the bill. Probably a good idea.
I have to call all the hospital/doctors to let them know the state is picking up part of the tab. It’s a lot of bills to call, and some want to see a copy of the letter and others telling me to ignore all future bills.
Then I have to figure out how to let med Asst know how much I have already paid so I don’t pay more than I have to.
I guess I will get a refund, although I don’t care so much. I’m just happy if they pick up the balance, I always feel guilty when I get government aid of any kind.
Sah-son got his insurance and he has to see a doctor within 90 days so we have to make an appointment for him. He couldn’t be more thrilled.
I feel like I am getting organized here but I know I am forgetting to call somebody.
Sometime I have to get back out there and try to sign up for obamacare. The site sucks and keeps hanging me up. Maybe it is fixed by now.
I have mail to get together to mail as well.
It’ll feel good to get all of this done.
That’s what I said a couple of weeks ago. This is the SDMB - we have a traditional method for launching items.
And by the way Forgetful Husbands, Friday is Valentine’s Day. Just a friendly public service announcement.
Bah. Humbug.
I got sent home early. 
I’ve been productive since I got home–did some yoga and took a shower. My back’s no longer seizing up. :D:D
We’re getting ski-slope snow again. I prefer this to heavy wet snow. NOTE TO THE WEATHER GODS: That was not a hint to change.
Now it’s time for late lunch and working on the Great Circular T-Shirt Rug aka I Want Arthritis in My Hands, Apparently.
I have no idea as crocigators are reptiles.
I had a shirt as a Spiderteen; it was a decal of two pigs in a, ummm, compromising position in a barnyard & it had two words. Makin’ Bacon
Classy I tells ya!
I think I’m in love!
Howdy from da cave! The heat kept bein’ wonky so I left the orifice. I have beastloaf all made up that I will shove in the oven shortly. Tonight is Evening Prayer over to the church house but I ain’t goin’. It’s cold and icky out and besides I have not spent anytime with OYKW all week. We may be gettin’ some freezin’ precip this evenin’ but not anything big time. Surface temps are supposed to stay above freezin’. Yay for that!
We don’t do Valentine’s Day. We do buy cheap chawklit the day after. That’s how we celebrate. However, I think I think I shall grill tbone steaks on Firday. There’s champagne in the beerator and I could get some chawklit covered strawberries. Plus, well, there’s the hottub. That could be romantic. 
Wanna do nothin’ with me, Friday, in our current locations? 
Given the plans of certain nefarious arachnids and Star Trek chaps (I name no names) perhaps you should be saying your prayers. :dubious:
I was going to clean the litter box, but I’m free after that.
Blurf.
We’re all hunkered down, but **FCD **did his best to protect us. He spent a large chunk of the day cleaning and rebuilding the carburetor on our generator, filling the gas cans, and generally making sure the power won’t go down in the county. As long as we have enough juice to keep the aquarium running, run the well pump, and run the fan on the pellet stove, we can survive just fine. So yay for that stuff.
Near as I can tell, we’re still being threatened with 3-5" followed by sleet - methinks I won’t be going in tomorrow. We shall see.
There was a little silver gift bag on my desk this morning - it had 3 peppermints, 3 Andes mints, 3 fancy paperclips, a little pad of sticky notes, and some sparkly hearts and stars. Dunno who left it there - it was unsigned. Last place I worked, I came in to find a $1 chip from a Vegas casino on my desk. Weird…
We’re re-watching House of Cards in anticipation of the new season’s arrival on Firday. We’ve already watched all of Scandal on Netflix. We get a lot more out of that $8/month than we do for our cable…
Dunno what we’ll do for supper. I’m wavering between an egg sammich or ordering pizza. Decisions, decisions.
Happy Weds.
