You know me well. .never turn down an opportunity to have fun. This isn't fun though....our furnace broke down today....not good timing with this weekend storm arriving. I think it's just the igniter though. It's 20 years old and this is its first problem. I started a fire in the wood stove. It doesn't heat everything but it's in the basement so it will keep the pipes from freezing. I'm probably going to get a professional to fix the furnace. I wouldn't want the house to end up like the Dukes outhouse.

I bought it and liked it. He had a pretty interesting life before Dukes came along. I'm glad that he ended up happy because he went through some rough times. I met him once. The show was still being filmed at the time. It was his wife's (first wife) 30 th birthday. I think it was 1982.

We're supposed to get a lot of snow here on Lake Erie coming up this weekend. It worked out good for me since I have no plans.

Four teams left. The winner of the Patriots vs Chiefs game will play the winner of the Saints vs Rams game in the Super Bowl.

It's been a 50 years but I thought we learned in school that Australia was a continent and that meant it shouldn't be defined as an island. I'm probably wrong. (the last word association is "man")

Can I ask what's wrong with it? I miss the old cars that you used to be able to work on yourself. Now it's all computers. I will admit though that they have some advantages.

And Major League pitchers start organized practices in February. That's next month! There is hope around the corner. Unfortunately for me your Cubs will probably be a lot better than my Pirates.

man So if Australia is an island wouldn't North America be an island? Pacific to the west. Atlantic to the east. Panama Canal to the south. Arctic Ocean to the north.

If you get all the bad luck stuff out of the way in January you will have nothing but good luck the rest of 2019.

Oh no, people are starting to take down their Christmas decorations. And there are evil people out there who have already taken ALL of their decorations down. Why are they not considering the feelings of poor folks like me who suffer post-Christmas blues? Where is their compassion? *uncontrollable sobbing commences*

I'm sorry to hear about your Bears Garrett. At least they went further than my Steelers. NASCAR and baseball will be here before you know it.

journey Is Australia considered to be an island?

Another little Waylon! I'm sitting here watching the NFL playoff game....Bears vs Eagles. Former NFL player Howie Long has a son playing on each team. They just mentioned that his son Chris Long on the Eagles has a son named Waylon.

That's fine. It was just a thought. You do a lot around here and we sure appreciate it.

Are you sure you didn't get it mixed up with some of Hobie Harkins Finest? Hope ya feel better!
