Latest storm is missing us to the north.
The Post Race managed to fall a long ways down. It was that Christmas spirit, I suppose. Some had Christmas spirit, some had too much Christmas spirits, and so on.
And the post race didn't have a ghost of a chance of being spirited away, off the first page.
It's going to be my son and me in our fantasy football league's final! I'm super excited.

You ought to clean up. I note a couple names on your son's list who were out with the COVID protocol, while you've got a few (especially the two QB's) who are getting mighty hot, of late. The New England D should be looking mighty fine in the next two weeks, too, considering they get to play Jacksonville and Miami. The latter can play well, but they don't exactly light up the scoreboard, and the former...well, they're going to be drafting number 1, again.
They should name a team "The Covid Protocol".
Well, Washington does need a name for it's team. Perhaps that's it?
maybe something like "fondling farther"
That would be awesome.
This might not be safe for work...here goes anyway! Google search for Chata Maxov. Go to Maps... satellite view...scroll to the right a bit and check out that odd roof top! Someone had a lot of time on their hands, lol!
I wound up winning my fantasy football league. I won 254.9 to 241.42, it was closer than I thought.
I would say that his WR did pretty well and yours mostly underperformed, but the outcome is the way I would expect.
Mmm, I don't know if I agree with that.
Ja'Marr Chase got me 50.1 points during week one, I benched him on week 2 (he had no need to play, Bengals already secured their #1 seed). Justin Jefferson got me only 8.8 on week 1, but he got me 19.6 on week 2.
Then Jaylen Waddle, Mark Andrews, and Heath Renfrow all got me about their averages both weeks. Actually, Renfrow overperformed during week 1.
Ah, two weeks. Yeah, that would make a difference. Jonathan Taylor was oddly quiet this last week.
Yeah, I predict he will score 0 fantasy points in the playoffs. lolQuote:

Can you believe all those 4th downs the Chargers made and then scoring a TD on the last play of regulation play. Being a Raiders fan, it was torture.
I didn’t realize that raiders fans existed. I thought they were a myth lol
you need to be 2.0 , now we say "virtual" ;) :DQuote:

Perhaps he's making a machine that goes "Ping".
I think it'd be hilarious if it made the flat line noise so that he could put it random spots around the hospital.
I have an adhesive capsulitis on my left shoulder (that blocks the movement of my arm) with some extra pain in the elbow and fingers due to this. They did a Corticosteroid injection in my shoulder to expand the capsule and I have physiotherapy every day. It is not to bad, just painful and reduce some movement and it take a long time to recover.
I don't have my Arduinos with me so no risk to get expelled ;) :D I will work on my mechanical calculus applications (mechanical fatigue and mechanical contact calculator) and maybe take some time to learn a few new thingsQuote:

Well, the hospital is full of people with covid affection. While a interesting idea, I am not sure they find it hilarious. They may prefer a small robot to carry things or take care of people.Quote:

I have done that already with a piezo actuator. I made a demo in a meeting: I set it on 1Hz and said to my colleagues that it was like the beat of the heart then I set it at 10hz and choose a colleague and tell that it was his heartbeat when one brings to him some work to do. Made laugh everyone but him, I don't know why :rolleyes:Quote:

I took a weekend vacation to Hot Springs, AR. The kids love the snow, even though it’s not enough to stick to the ground lol
That's a hefty weekend drive from La.
I drove from Ca to OK non stop once with the kids. Surprisingly the kids handled it well. I had a little Datsun wagon and made the whole back area flat so they could play and sleep. I wonder if there were seatbelt laws in 82, if so, obviously I ignored them. Got pulled over in Az. on the way back, the officer didn't say anything about it.
Why did you do that? Were you trying to show them flat ground?
No, because my ex would have gotten all pissy if I would have left then home alone. Women, go figure!!
There are the Tehachapi's and mountains @ Flagstaff and just before Albuquerque. But your right, I40 is mostly a long flat straight road.
Should have set the cruise control and joined the kids in the back.
The drive isn’t bad, 8hr total. I took Monday off to make the trip back home and we stayed in Vicksburg last night (about half way).
It’s snowing much more now! We had a snowball fight!
Crap!!! When I read your post I saw, Hot Springs, AZ.Quote:

The little snowman I made.
As long as he can lease it back from the company we sold it to. That way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.Quote:

Aren't you on the edge of the storm that is headed that way now? Or will that be all ice?Quote:

We need more storms, or a solid December won't be enough.
It started snowing just before 6pm EST here. Already have about two inches on the ground.Quote:

A plethora.

We're getting towards Golden Chair territory, by now.
The owl cannon says no.
Recovering from COVID. The first day was the worst I have ever felt in my life. The second day I still felt bad, but I’ve certainly felt worse. The third day I was basically fine. Since then I just get a bit winded.
Heck, I get a bit winded and I've never had COVID.
Still more or less the same. Now COVID is at the point where it’s just annoying.
I’m just ready to get over it so I can get outside my house and smoke cigars again!
Yeah, that's always good for the old respiratory system!
I'm just hoping that our inversion doesn't get to the point where we are told not to breathe. We got a brief respite this weekend, as a front pushed out the inversion for a day, or so, but it's supposed to set up again starting today. By the end of the week, the air is supposed to be 'chunky style'. Fortunately, there is talk of a 'more active' weather pattern coming for next weekend. At this time of year, more active means storms, and storms mean wind and the inversion being blown out.
Starting my new job tomorrow. At 48, I am still a bit excited !
