How is it that you're not pulling your hair out and pounding your heads against walls?

Just watching these things pound the islands, Florida, and the Carolinas over and over and over, as well as the hit on Bama and LA, the flooding in numerous states, and the brushes against all the other regions. And the constant uncertainty of the path (zone) is enough to tie my gut in knots.

Is it Christmas yet?

Here's my secret:

Picking up a keg of Rolling Rock this afternoon. Not quite sure how I'll keep it cold when the power goes out, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Speaking f christmas......we heat w/ a woodstove and my eyes are going ga-ga over all the "firewood" on the side of the roads, but Ill guess I will have to wait just a little longer to go foraging. We dont have a garage.

I just spent part of the morning spraying out garbage cans and rinsing my recycling bins (still full of bottles from Francis, never picked up) cause theyll be comming inside--YUCK. Please let there be garbage pickup on Monday LOL!

Nice Keg Box!

I delivered kegs working for the Coors and Miller Distributor this summer. Not fun to carry around!

I love that keg box. I'll see if I can send you a cool tap.

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear
and curse
When you're chewing on
life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...

...always lood on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)

Always look on the light side
of life...
(Whistle)

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and
dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle
- that's the thing.
And...always look on the bright
side of life...
(Whistle)

Come on.

Always look on the bright side
of life...
(Whistle)


If I get y'all whistling .the rest of the day my mission is complete.
