one last thing

 

[302BOB]

Winter is here with a vengeance!!!!!!!!!!!!!........teens this AM and with strong winds later, wind chills will stay in the teens all day.........Bill, I hear Neb is a little colder than this.........All eyes are on Sat. Some weather models bring a blizzard here, some models suggest just light snow and the one I like best says a miss for anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!We got some snow yesterday from the storm that passed to the south of us,,,,,,,,,,,enough to coat the roads and cause accidents for those who think 4 wheel drive means get outta of my way..............that's why I stay in when roads get slippery........

 

[Bill Pemberton]

It was only 6 degrees last night but should be up to 21 for a high today ( yesterday only hit 17 ). The Omaha area gets pretty darn cold in the Winter and we hit 100 a couple of times every Summer, so extremes are common. We only have 1/2 an inch of snow on the ground so no real complaints, as my old family farm in Missouri has 13 inches.

Today's Cryptoquote......." Through the chill of December the early winter moans, but it's that January wind that rattles old bones"--- John Facenda...............................When I was a kid, I use to laugh at the wind and cold but now they laugh at me if I dare to venture out in them....................I don't know what rattles more, now, when that cold wind blows .........My bones or my windows?

Today in History, January 10, 1860 " The Pemberton Mill in Lawrence, Massachusetts, collapsed and caught fire, killing as many-as 145 people".....................Bill, Were your ancestors involved with this mill at all?...........I know you mentioned having Kinfolk here on the east coast way back when......... https://newenglandhistoricalsociety.com/pemberton-mill-disaster/

I got a new tune that might not be too welcome here, Blame Hon, It was on Her radio station that played it....it's from the 80's and not even Rock N Roll, but it has a beat that captured my soul....the original was from SlyFox, but this one is more radical................

 

[302BOB]

My prayers still go out to everybody in .L.A....................you're in a nightmare you could never dream of.............God be with you........................

 

[302BOB]

Just for the record..."Let's go all the way" is a great recording.................one more time full blast, please...BTW. Be careful...All the way may be farther than you can handle or want to go ... Don't ask me how I know..............................

 

[302BOB]

Good morning To the TMO crew!!!!!!!!!.....I've been up since 5AM.... The garbage collectors and then the recycling guys came by at that time and made enough noise to make me hear my tax dollars were surely being "processed"!!.......If you didn't like the last tune I posted.......I'm sorry for that.......It was something That hit me and so be it...........Another observation that comes to mind while Hon is still snoring ......................The older I get, the more I hate winter!!!!!!!!!!!.........I'm reminded of the cold every day when I go to get the paper in the driveway....The cold, and snow and ICE .............the risk of slipping and breaking your neck..................I'll take the heat of summer ANY day of the week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............Enough of this rant from a crazy man who happens to own a Boss302 #1886...............That drives me crazy , but keeps me sane, Just barely................when you hang on by a thread, you hope it turns into a rope.........

 

[Bill Pemberton]

Bob , you hanging on by a thread just makes you an old sew and sew! Yep, another nauseous pun from a Grandpa in Nebraska. Kind of fun telling Dad or Grandad jokes now , as I enjoy hearing others moan, since I do that alot with all my arthritic joints.

PS - getting up by 5 is pretty common for many on this Forum.

 

[302BOB]

Bill, You are so right....things change and you gotta go with the flow or the tide leaves you behind..............BTW....I would much rather wake up at 5AM on my own instead of getting help from a garbage truck and crew...................on a bright note...........I'm officially a grandpa now..........Galaxy and Peanut are getting jealous.................

 

[302BOB]

Thought for the day......................As you get older, do you get wiser?....or just get better at blocking the things that may hurt you???...............Most likely.............. both.............................

 

[Dave_W]

Okay, just have to put the original / extended version of that ICP cover here. I remember it as a dance club hit from the 80's.

Google algorithm popped this up while I was searching, also big in the clubs. Didn't know there was an actual video.

And that reminds me of this

Din Daa Daa also reminds me of the "rang-dang digitty dang da-dang" section of this

For you youngsters, here's a lesson in rap history.

For those that found that too quirky, here's a lesson from the originator

Looks like it gotten taken down for copyright violation, but keep an eye out for Grandmaster Flash's appearance on the Jools Holland show. One of the most impressive displays of all-vinyl 2-turntable mixing I've seen. So perfectly on the beat through a multitude of records of varying genres, you'd swear metronomes and atomic clocks set themselves to Grandmaster Flash.
