USMB Coffee Shop IV

[gallantwarrior]

While you all sleeping, let's organize the minute of depression about a targets we hadn't reached in our life...



P.S. Whining cat and whining fly,
Whining airplane at sky,
Eye is whining from shampoo....
Let yourself be whining too

ли я сказать вам, что кафе было бы здорово?

I don't know what you said GW, but I trust you completely that it is legal for the Coffee Shop.

Perfectly OK. I originally suggested Sbiker might like the CS. I'm thinking, he does.

 

[Gracie]

Wouldn't you know it? I got a phone call from a gal that has a room. She said all three of us, 600 per month with utilities included...And she is 25 miles away from us...Located across the street from the senior low income housing place we are listed at.
We are going to meet her tomorrow and look at the room. Talk about last minute eh?
But, I have to check everything out before I mess up a guaranteed thing up north.

Great news! Congrats!

Hope all the CS folks are doing well. I skimmed over the past couple of weeks...very sorry to hear about Boo, and excited for Gracie's new prospects. Tomorrow we are dropping my Mom off at the Lung Institute where she will spend a few days receiving stem cell therapy for her advanced COPD. This is her last chance to regain some quality of life, so we are praying hard. I need to go make my 7-layer Mexican appetizer for the Super Bowl.

 

[Gracie]

You know...We have struggled so hard to stay here but I think this aspect of our lives is over. All my docs are here, but none are really helping me. Over a month now, and I still have diarrhea...And I mean it is just water. Seriously. Water. Nothing solid. I have now lost 30 lbs, and had blood tests done and all I get from the doc is "stress" and "take immodium".

Maybe it's time for a new county and new docs.

I think we will head north after all. Time to let this place go.

Sorry your mom isn't doing well Sherry. I lost my uncle to COPD in September. I don't think they tried that particular treatment with him though so we'll put her in the immediate urgency department.

And here it is, Super Bowl Sunday!

Here in my neck of the woods, the Super Bowl is usually a very festive, frantic time of year. My beloved Pittsburgh Steelers have played in eight of the fifty one Super Bowls, winning six of them, more than any other team in the NFL.

But this is an off year with not much to offer us. Instead, we'll watch the commercials for fun. Here's a game you and your Super Bowl party can play during the commercials. Everyone picks a topic. Soda and beers, insurance and finance, snack and fast foods, television and movies, automobiles and accessories, airlines and travel, computers and cell phones.

Every time one of your ads comes on, you win a point. The most points wins. Make it a cool prize like a gift card or a bottle of wine.

Experience has taught me that movies and television programs usually does rather well.

Good morning all. Another beautiful winter day that feels more like spring in New Mexico. Just put a lovely roast in the slow cooker for dinner tonight. Mixed feelings about dealing with Super Bowl stuff on TV all day--no party here but it's Super Bowl Sunday all the same. Right now have the TV off because even the news cable channels are dominated with Super Bowl stuff. My big sis is staying with us for a few days and waiting for her to get up to start breakfast. Hope everybody is geared up for pleasant Sunday.

Good morning back atcha. Superbowl Sunday, have my shopping list completed and ready to go all I'm waiting for is the pre-game to get into full swing and I'm out the door. No traffic, no family reunions in the aisles, no lines at the checkout....... This is my favorite shopping day.

But. . .that means we would have to watch every commercial. When do you get to go to the fridge to get a beer? Okay, we don't drink beer here but you get my drift.

LOL. I love it. I wish I needed to go to the store for something. But I'll dutifully watch the game and the multi-million dollar commercials so as to be socially correct with hubbie and my sis.

The only drawback will be most store employees will all be busy watching the game on their handhelds so getting help or getting checked out could be slightly problematic.........

Going to be a hot day at Doc's. I've prepared a bunch of stuffed jalapenos and my partner has made a couple bushels of buffalo wings. Chips, dips, chilli and a couple cakes will keep everyone happy, Cuban coffee will keep them awake, and popcorn will keep them thirsty.

My jalapenos (scale up or down)
2 pounds jalapenos split lengthways and cleaned
1 8 oz package cream cheese softened
1 or 1 1/2 cup of shredded sharp cheddar
1/2 cup finely sliced green onion
1 pound andouille or hot Italian sausage cooked and drained

Bake about 20 minutes at 425

I wish I could have some of that. Not being a cook I just eat chicken salad every day.

So, last night, a customer (mid 50's) offered a very drunk woman (30) a ride. She has a broken leg, so he backed his pick-up onto the lawn out front to make it easier for her.
What he didn't notice at the time were the hitching posts (4" octagonal wood sunk 18" in the ground) He backed completely over 1 and pushed the second over 45 degrees. OK I can maybe understand not noticing hitting the posts, but when he pulled forward, the one under the truck caught the rear bumper and lifted the rear of the truck off the ground. His second attempt at full power lifted the truck again and the back end came down a foot or so to the right.
He HAD to feel that, but he took off almost hitting a car in the lot on his way out.
Posts aren't damaged, but the lawn is torn up and post hole diggers will be needed.
ASSHAT!

Buzzed driving is drunk driving in Alaska.

Had the cops been around, it would have cost him about 4 grand to keep his license.

For many years now, I have restricted my alcohol intake to home. First: I will not drive "buzzed", or otherwise impaired. It's iced tea or coffee for me, so I'd be a designated helper if I hung out at your place. Second: It breaks my cheap-assed heart to pay as much for one drink as it would cost me to buy the whole six-pack or fifth and take it home for "safe" consumption. At home, we usually judge we are too inebriated when we can no longer count-out for cribbage.
Damned old people!

Some years I drove "buzzed"... but one day at evening I wanted to visit shop at neighbour village to buy some beer more, and got into police raid. They stopped me but didn't find I'm drunk,because I admitted of other rules violation at once.... After it I never drink when driving, because I don't believe, in other cases it would be so easy for me. In Russia there are a strong rules against alcohol - if you have in blood any alcohol, you'll got at least serious fee and cancel of license for the several months... If you repeat it - you can get in prison for some months...

Now I prefer to smoke, when I'm driving Or to use foots and another transport - in towns it's not a problem

Ummm...what do you smoke? Here in Alaska, it's legal to smoke marijuana...

I'm not a lover of cannabis, only tobacco.... but Alaska is becoming more attractive for me... )
