Good morning, Antiquarian. Good golly man! You’re about the same age as me! You just need more rum to keep you up.

Happy new year to you and your family!

Thank you WD, all of you folks here are great fun during difficult times.

I gave up the hard stuff years ago, now the only brink I really appreciate is a cold Bud Light on a hot day.
I also love a glass of J. Lohr California Cab while listening too JS Bach or Vivaldi... I guess I am old.

Wonder how many pirates will waketh in dawn's early light, and swear they'll never do that again.
May the white throne not be your ruler in the morning mates.
Stay safe, all the best for 2021..

Piratess’s can handle de rum!

We have done this almost every year with our best friends. They just celebrated their 39th anniversary last night.
Oh, they knew I had just been sick. They wanted me there, anyway.

Peaceful ? ? ?

Man I live in Florida... land of the "Yahoo's"... who look for any excuse to do fireworks... big ones... I have to turn up stuff all night to "drown out" the crap.

Never have gotten over the fact that people over drinking age buy and engage in fireworks on any day other than the 4th.

Doggy's are stressed about it more than I.

I never really understood the whole excitement generated by the 'New Year', I guess because it's a fresh new year and we all get to start over... hypothetically of course.

I heard fireworks going off in our area when I hit the sheets at 10:30 last night... any excuse to light off explosives I guess.

STOP SAYING THAT!!!!

WE are the same age! Don’t you know you are reflecting on me when talk like that? LOL [emoji23]

You are refined ’tis all.
A refined gentleman.

Morning AARC, Dave, WD
Happy New Year to you all.

 

[WannaDig3687]

Unlikely Sir, most of the pirates will say nay, never happened, t'was ne'er there. Someone else, looked just like me...and he has all my sympathy!

La la la. [emoji4]

 

[WannaDig3687]

Test negative for wd? Did she think she was preggers again?

LOL now that would be something!

Where have you been, neighbor? Your heckling has been missed!

You're hilarious WD, you and my wife have a similar sense of humor.

That's one of the main reasons why I married her was for her sense of humor, it certainly wasn't for her laundry or cooking skills.

Morning Bill
Happy New Year to you.

 

[WannaDig3687]

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I already created my 2021 Metal Detecting Spreadsheet... hopefully I will get out tomorrow so I can enter something!

Happy new year, Noah.

Oh my! A spreadsheet? You are seriously addicted to this hobby. That’s good.
Now, since Fat brought it up....
I have been wanting to ask if you do any walleye fishing?

 

[ARC]

Morning Bill and Pepper... and Happy New Year to the both of you.

Oh gee a JS*Bach or Vivaldi listener
You are just so CW, that if yoy listen to R&R -what was the reason for not listening "makes you feel old*
Classical music? Say what! Come on buddy - say what!

ARC, I don’t think that is just a Florida thing. While we were out setting ours off, there were fireworks and gunshots going off all around us. I don’t know why they bother. We put on the best show every year. LOL

Good morning Jim and Bill, Happy 2021 to you both!

Oh Bill it's too early to looking at those things-YAK!

I really have no love for sausages-especially porkers-never had-that my mother was picking up in the backyard-(Irish Setter drops) No way Jose.
Though I actually had a sausage made from all organic meats and fixings at a 45yr Birthday for a close friend-in his honour I ate it, after 45yrs.

The strangest things that gets implanted in the brain when we're young.

I love pork sausages, it’s like getting a surprise with every bite… (Irish Setter drops)
I just took pork sausages out for breakfast too Jim.

Got woken by something just before midnight-well maybe a bathroom run will settle the system down. Then headlights lit up the garage-WTF there's a car parked beside the Mrs car-right up near the door of the garage. I turn on the light open the door a bit-car turns off lights slowly backs out-and drives up the road.
OK-Now I am just finishing up and what do I see headlights creeping down the back lane!
I go grab the 1000 lum. flashlight go out the backdoor onto the porch-light the car up as it slowly drives through the yard and up the road.
It's an electric car-just the slow crunching of ice under the wheels.
Now the dog is full on guard dog crazy (I woke him up with the door sound )

Trying to figure out this mysterious event when I go back to bed-the Mrs said " Jim what are you going to do if it comes back again?

I'll phone the cops-I replied.
She replied-"Thank you" and went to sleep. (I have a left shoulder that has a tad of bad reputation)
When dealing with trespassers or morons in life I usually just say to the LEOs "There's the street way or your way in handling this-I called you- because at this juncture in life I prefer to use your way"
They shake there heads in agreement - "Good choice" and listen.
So I lay a watching for the return-windy-trees making noises-dog not settling down-Yawn....

This sounds pretty ominous Jim; I’ve installed motion sensor LED lights at the back and side of our house.
Not so much for security, but more to allow the dog to see the stairs when she goes out to deposit another 'Tootsie Roll' in the backyard at night.

Anti I hope the job comes thru for you.

Thank you so much Ms BB.
I had a Skype interview yesterday morning with the VP and I’ll have a phone call interview next Wednesday with the President of the company.
The VP told me, “when I refer you to the President for an interview, you’re pretty much in”.
I’m excited about the fact that their head office is based in Fort Myers, now I’m going to have to have a look for my Speedo.

In my Speedo… I now look like a head of cauliflower wrapped in a rubber band!
