I can't believe they got a 2nd and a 3rd for him. 

He is going to the one place where he might be able to rediscover his former self. And he won't be getting killed every play behind a shit OL.

As for the poster formerly known as HiZ (by me) I am guessing Hurtsadelphia will be the new screen name, unoriginal as that is.

LOL that's Beethoven

Wait. So you mean it was Beethoven who won the battle of New Orleans?? I'm so confused! Was that before or after Andrew Jackson wrote his 9th symphony? 

:lol::lol::lol:

It does take a lot of you, but you gotta do just one more.   We're getting the band back together for one more tour.

I will consider it.... as long as you promise not to shoot me in the face. :gun_bandana:

Who was also of the negroid persuasion per one of my fav conspiracy theories.

I remember hearing something like that awhile back and just googled it. I found an NPR take on it that I’ll have to listen to later.

Right now it’s 80’s music in the garage brewery and finishing happy hour with a no pun intended Black Flag Cranberry Lime Ginger Sour. Splitting brews is the way to go.

I have noticed some crazy stuff here over the last 24 hours (probably more). Maybe it was always the case and I didn't notice it? For example, a poster comes into the banter thread and accuses another member of "backing him up in a parking lot"... like this is the Soprano's Weather Gang Forum. Then gets butt hurt when people start making godfather references (in jest). Anyway, very strange. Shortly afterwards another user posts warnings in a huge ass font that takes 5 minutes to scroll through. Followed by warnings for all 50 states from yet another user. Then you have posters running victory laps in the main thread like we are at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. And of course the obvious reactions it generates. Meanwhile, other posters are bitching about the format and structure of the forum. Then there are the issues with people bringing up things that are not really weather related which people might find divisive or offensive. And it goes on and on... 

Perhaps it is the shitty run of winters we have been having over the last several years... and a crappy season this year. But it just seems that this type of "behavior"  has become more prevalent than it was in the past. Just my observation or perceived perception.

Blast from the past!

Maybe, just maybe this could happen soon?!

28 years ago next month, and yes it was a sleetfest but the frontside thump was crazy.  And the wind!

Biggest thing was the pressure - 966Mb for us.  Verified on both digital and mercury column barometers!  Incredible!

 

Now you’re going to get me all tingly inside

Philadelphia sports teams deserve as much shit as can possibly be piled on them

Fell on my ass while shoveling around the cars. The cleared portion of the driveway was totally iced up, went to step and push off to shovel behind my car and slipped and fell. Didn’t realize how sore it was until after I finished, came inside, made dinner then went to sit down. Ouch.

But my honey garlic pork chops with asparagus was delicious

The fact you made dinner after that is very impressive. My wife would have had me make it (and do a terrible job) or order takeout. I hope you are feeling ok.

So weird. I knew you weren’t melanin-challenged, but it’s so funny to know that the (physical) image you had in your head of certain people wasn’t quite spot on.

In my Head i picture everyone as their profile pic.  Stormtraker let IS Beethoven.  You are Bob Dylan.  Mrs. J is Mrs. Slocombe be from Are you being served.  Maestrobjw be is a sentient treble cleff.  I get disappointed when I see peoples real pics and they look nothing like I pictured them.

Eta: Just noticed someone else Ninja-ed me.

You should have gone foraging for tundra boots or thermal boots.  Then you would have not slipped  

 

Sorry it hurts.  Feel better

Exactly what I was thinking. BYO Beverage and dish to share.

Thanks all :)

currently the snow removal for our neighborhood is having a blast with the little front end loader on my square. Live in the way back of the neighborhood where the townhomes are. As our road is not cleared by the county we pay to have it cleared. Always a way better job as when we get to the start of our street with the single family homes there is usually a one lane pass by plows. Clearing out the end of the drives as well.

Funny because I picture you as a brown circle with a white letter C in the middle of it. Go figure.

The honey garlic pork cops sound delicious... but I would pass on the asparagus.

I am not a very good cook, but I do try. Very simple recipe so I nailed it lol 

brussel sprouts could be good with it too, that honey glaze, with a touch of cayenne pepper, was top notch.

Careful, falling is one thing and we laugh like stoned hyenas when we're alright...

I remember taking a walk to the mailbox and everything seemed OK down to the last 10 feet or so.  I knew I was in big trouble and could do nothing about it.  Wiggle left, wiggle right, do the Watusi while sliding downhill picking up speed.  Like the first time on skis not knowing how to slow down you intentionally fall to stop.  Except this time I fell backward and smacked the back of my head on a gravel road.  Back of my head looked like a strawberry.  That really sucked!

Ouch! I knew I was gonna fall so just let it happen without really trying to brace myself, figured my fat ass could take the brunt without risking hurting a wrist or something instead :lol:
