UP - thumbs up.

First of all to the cell phone conversation. DJ knitted a little yellow cell phone holder that hangs around my neck now so the only way it will get in a snow blower is when I tip the blower over and lean over it to unclog the snow. Once it was close but the blades only touched it a few times.

Oddly this reminds me of golf (the scene of the cell phone #2 mulching indecent). I have to buy a new used putter as mine "broke" on the last 9 holes last year.

------------------------------------

WOW - what a mess coming our way - YUCK. There is a ton of moister coming our way and it all depends on the temps. One sure thing is there will be a lot of ice dams in streets as water will be backing up so if you have a storm drain near you try to clear it now.

My feeling is this is going to be 90% rain event and TODAY will be the ice event (small icing in the the afternoon). A lot of rain, rain rain rain. Rain all day tomorrow, rain Christmas.

---------------------------------------

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this yet but my fingers were cramping up. This would be great in a poster as opposed to canvas (without the frame) I think I'll make a few posters and frame them. And yes - I cut those freaking pieces out by mouse (no software was involved).

We watched UP last night and it is a wonderful movie and as "M" commented on Facebook, what an amazing first part of the movie, the non-speaking section that makes you cry! WOW. I'm not sure I have ever had a tear in my eye watching animation.

While the movie was amazing there is a 22 minute adventure of the 12 major people that made the movie. They went to the place where the 2nd half of the movie is modeled after. Only 100 people have ever been to this remote area in Venezuela and the movie is almost an exact replica. It is amazing. Two mile cliffs that to straight up (or down). The Tepuis Mountains.

Good read on the Packer game - 6 chances in the last 11 plays to stop the Steelers but the one thing was that they say Rogers had what they consider his best quarter ever.

I had more but it escapes me at the moment.

Have a GREAT and safe day and if you are away tomorrow Happy Holidays to everybody around the world from little Columbus WI!

Peace.

  4. I have to agree. The carousel photo is fine as is. Nix the puzzle idea.
