Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Ableminds Edition

My bro left the same airport only 20 minutes ahead of the one that went down. Couldn't get a hold of him until he was over Mn airspace. He was way surprised to say the least.

Incidentally he did say that the Ball was still up and would be all year long. Hopefully he'll let me tag along once again. That city is a blast. I could easily hang out there for 1/2 the year anyway.

Glad he's OK anyway.

thats neat.

i'm assuming the reason there was a pp paper outside my door this morning was either cause of the plane crash or someone made a mistake and delivered to the wrong house.

I personally delivered the PP while hiding the medallion in nearby Cherokee Park. Enjoy the paper. :wink:

I just got back from the bank, target and groceries to cover the kids over the hunt and get goodies for cold nights in the parks. I dont have a garage so it's difficult in this cold weather to clean out the car and pack things in. I'm used to hunting with the truck so putting a shovel in the car and not tearing or wrecking something in the car scares me.

For noodlers like myself that like to overthink clues, a quick-or not so quick site to refresh you on the tools of cryptic crosswords, coded messages inside of clues. If you don't do cryptics, I recommend you read...if you do, see how fast YOU can guess their examples.

for anyone who's noticed. yes, coolercrew.com is unavailable at the moment. someone decided to some last minute housecleaning before the hunt to make sure everything is in good shape and the security upgrades seem to have bumped the firewall box. it'll be fixed when i get home in an hour and a half or so and then not touched for the next 2 weeks :smile:

These Bars are buying buttons and selling buttons at their place to be called a Warming House....

Obbs may be just a sponsor?

didnt know what the difference is. He probably didn't know the difference either I bet. He's the kind of guy/place that woulda been a warming house - he says all yah gotta do is approach him with your ideas and he's in.

No sitter until the weekend. Spending the night with the kid since I really don't think she'll see much of dad over the next two weeks :wink:

When they put in the SmartZone update there was all sorts of bugs with that which took them forever to fix. Some still aren't fixed.

Plus, I liked the old layout better anyway. :angry:

I agree. It takes longer to load and seems to have less user friendly features.

I have to tell ya. It's now been a couple weeks, some of the coldest weather of the year, and my comcast connection hasn't failed once. Maybe someone finally figured out what the problem was and perhaps it's fixed.

I hope I didn't just jinx it.

Thanks
