92. So, how's life in the Twilight Zone?

Thu Jan 5, 2012, 12:22 PM

Jan 2012

I've just been popping in to observe lately. Less and less.

My back has been making life miserable for me for the last few weeks, and then I woke up yesterday morning (the coldest of the year so far) with no heat. It's a good thing this is Floriduh.

As I navigated through the home page to get here, I couldn't read the nooz, because there's a big ad sitting over it. And, I'm not paying to get rid of it!

Anyway, keep up the good work. Maybe I'll pop in a bit longer later after the furnace guys leave, and the painkillers kick in!
