Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Peoplesforum Edition

Hey all - Finally got all the slogging caught up - gheez!  Maybe one of these years, I'll have a job that'll allow me access!

Natalie went to school (community kindergarten half day) yesterday, but it completely wiped her out.  She came home and went straight to bed and slept through.  The fever is gone, but today she came home with a headache.  Being the age that she is, it can be hard to tell if it's as bad as she makes it seem - couldn't say where it hurt, just everywhere.  She screamed for awhile and I just held her and tried to get her to be still.  She fell asleep, then I had to wake her up for more ibuprofen.  Sure hope we see the end of this soon (and that the rest of us remain healthy through hunting time!)

Jello, Mom!  Bummer!  Sorry to hear about anudder sick kid.  Hugs to you and Natalie.

Man, I hope I don't get sick.  SICKOS STAY AWAY FROM THE PDG!!! 
<scubbing hands like an obsessive/compulsive>

Mom!  See the SPARKLIES coming outta my butt???!!!

Digger did that fur me!  Ain't it COOLER?! How he does the thangs he does beats me.

Mom - Glad Natalie is on the mend. 

Green - RHB?  It's not over yet girl!

JOE!!!

Joe who?

Terry - the fever is gone, but not sure about being on the mend.  She literally *screamed* for 15 minutes.....kinda worried about her headache.  But maybe it's just that she hasn't *had* that kind of pain before (and crying/screaming sure didn't help!).

Outta -- I'm not sure if I'll be able to bring the cans we've got to the gig tomorrow night or not....but if it doesn't work out, we can still pass them along to your daughter's future efforts...

Fixed, Ter.  And...  HAY!  How the heck are yous?  Damn you fur taking my JOE!

Mappy Gooey!  I need a book.  Signed.  With love, like you do yearly.

Hey Mappy!  Did I tell ya I want a signed version of the latest guide? 

Mom - I hear ya.  Screaming from pain isn't so good.  Hopefully it's just a headache and it will be gone.

I'll be bringin 'em to the PDG.  There's no better way to break in the Map Guy's book than to spill beer on it.  That makes it come alive.

Yo' momma.

New this edition....bigger maps for the big parks.  My personal opinions on the smaller parks.....and a virtual walk through Indian Mounds.  Well-as virtual as I could make it in the last two months.

Alive?  (Brings out the hidden ink.)

So, when's the Burfday party this year, Mappy Gooey?  When we gonna lose/miss ya?

 

 

JOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want one too!  With or without beer.....Gawd knows my previous edition has all kinds of stuff on it!

I just talked to me2. One of the reasons she hasn't been around is her mother-in-law is having open heart surgery tomorrow to replace a valve. Please keep me2 and her family in your thoughts and prayers!

Pay Me and Myself have you in our thoughts me2

The birthday will be celebrated on Sunday the 23rd.  I promised the Missus that I would "for sure" be able to take my mind off the hunt for a few hours.

Me2....  Thinking o'you, your mom-in-law, and your fam.

Me2 - Hope everything goes well.  Positive thoughts and prayers!

Gooey, shouldn't be too hard to take your mind off o'The Hunt with a hang over... LOL!!!

But concentrating on kids?  You'll have a nice time looking at the back o'your eye lids!  :D

Chuckle Chuckle....Verde;-)

Well...  The Pickle Relish says ittiz time to go to bed.  My widdo Snuggy Puggy...

Nyetol. SCD and MCL.  Hugs to you all.

TOMORROW'S ONLY 9 WAKE-UPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  GADS!!! I'm about to POP with xcitement and SPARKLIES!!!!

Nyetol, SCD & MCL X 2.

Well, guys....4:30 comes early.  And I *sure* don't need to do this to myself with no clue to wait up for!!!  I've got to get under the blankets before I wake up with squares imprinted on my face!

Me2 -- your family will be in our prayers, hope everything goes well.

JOE!

 

Oh, just an update too on a few of the Coolerheads.  I talked with Lisa n Amy's Mommy a bit tonight.  She wants to come on but is having problems remembering her password.  She hopes to have the problem rectified in a few days.  Also Mystical Muzik has been unable to come on because of phone problems.  She has some good news to share, but I will leave that for her to tell you when she does come back.

TMK is retired?

At least he's not Rather otherwise it would sound a little like this:

A few people called me tonight. One of them was the clue writer who, low and behold, has actually been Jake all this time.  He says it already hidden in Cono so go out and get it.  Newbie also called and admitted that he was indeed Greg Sax.  He says the hunt just isn't the same since he was the clue writer years ago. But did predict that Green would find it this year since she already has it in her possession.

I knew someone was going to catch me on that one, I was trying to use a universally understood news anchor.

How about Ron Burgundy?

Bergie Burgundy's Brother?

You stay classy CM

I haven't seen that yet but I think he's hilarious.

From Weatherbug!

Friday Night Mostly clear. Very cold. Lowest wind chill readings 38 below to 48 below zero after midnight. Lows 15 below to 20 below zero. Northwest winds 10 to 15 mph.

whoohoo! bring it on old man winter!

Going to get busy here at work when that cold snap hits.

lol OTS, no pun intended?

LOL

lol "how cold is it?" "So cold I could hear the cables snapping on the phonepoles"

Hello all cooler people. I see I missed alot while I was away.
I am sad to tell you that my Father passed away last night.
I thought I was prepared for this,but apparantly not.
I'm a spinning, reeling frustrated coolerhead right now.
 I know some of you have lost parents, and have issued a forewarning, and I thank you.- But why did you not tell me it would hurt this bad?
....Sorry.- Not your fault, I'm just in a morose place just now.

There is something we call a suck out or thermal extraction.... The center conductor of the trunk cables sometimes get just a little bit to cold. They lost connectivity as they pull back and we end up with tons of very small outages all over the place. The last cold spell we had got rid of the last batch. But this stuff will be below -8 so there is sure to be those few that needed just a little more cold to make them go.

I mean- I really WANT to get excited about the hunt, But I have no focus. I feel like a dweeb.
shit

I'm sorry for your loss KT :(.

So sorry to hear about your dad, all I can say is you have to hang on to the good memory's.

KT, I am so very sorry to read about your father.  I don't think there is a way to prepare for these events that happen in your life.  If any of us would have been able to describe the pain and difficulties, you wouldn't have been able to believe or understand....until now.

We are praying for peace to descend upon you.....you have a huge extended family here waiting to help out in any way that they can, don't be afraid to reach out if you need us.

Hope all goes well with your mother inlaw Me2.
