I don't complain about him. He usually does my sidewalk and the guy across the street plows my driveway with a plow and all I have left is a 3ft sidewalk to the front door. Works for me!

So would it be a bad idea to go out driving around for pleasure right now?
heh- one flake is an "emergency" in Richfield.They rarely tow, or tag...just plow a gihugic bank around your car, so you feel stupid.
I fired up my toro baby snow thrower. hee- a buddy of mine who is a mechanic did something unorthodox to it, and now it turbo jets the snow.
Either that or it was last winter when I had to re-build the rotating drum... All my snow is in my neighbors yard. That's ok, I don't care much for my neighbors. They have an aversion for outdoor fires of any size.

Mikey- that means the city will come over, lift up your car, scrape the snow, and put it down gently.

Isn't this GREAT????? For our crew to get a sweet snowfall at the last minute?

He's not anymore, has been in and out of different places, totem town, Thistledew, those kinds of places, he's not real smart these days.

Kitch- Bringing attention to a coolerhead's missed Joe is grounds for stoning, and caning.
If you loved her, you would abstain from such a mention.

THX is just bitter because his politics are stupid and dumb, don't let him get to you.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

Screw you, Timmers!

Well, ya'all- I have great (albiet sad) news.
My mom received my Dad's death certificate today. His cause of death was #1 Hypernatremia
#2 severe dehydration
#3 aspiration of fluids caused by tissue damage from #1.

This is sad for me, but I rejoice because the lawyers do not have to argue or dispute the issue.
I want my mom to get all her money back for my Dad's care. I want health reform to have specific regulations for our elderly.
I feel that they deserve a policy, or group of them to protect them from being overlooked. I feel that health care systems in general do not see them as viable humans. They are old, and therefore are rendered useless- but moreso intimidating, because they remind us of our very mortality. Which is scary. They are US in a few short years.
They are rarely representd because of their "life expectancy"
So no one yells.
...It's not worth the money.
 Well, folks, I'm yelling!
And it's not moot- not just to you fine cooler folks here.
I will keep quietly yelling until somehow our elderly, vulnerable population have rights that differ from anything else.
Whew!

You can look up hypernatremia and find no other reason for it but LACK OF WATER
Shit! No water for 4 days.
I'm yelling! (systematically, and reservedly)

KT- I am sorry to hear that, that is horrible. I just read an article about minnesota being the worst state for medical facilities malpractice deaths and I thought of your father. You're still in my thoughts and prayers.

Not too far from THX.  I'm looking at you now.  Well, from what I can see anyway.  You pass me on your way home.  394 is still backed up pretty bad.  You might wanna take 94N if you can.  But that's probably bad as well.
