I saw a clip of a Papillon named Gabby the other day, there is something so funny about watching the little dogs do it. They can fly but it takes the seesaw forever to lower because they only weigh like 5 lbs

You would have loved seeing 220lb chibby do it - believe it or not he was quite good

Love you boy

Yesterday we had flooding.

Last night we were under a tornado watch.

This morning it was snowing.

We're under a winter storm watch Tuesday night into Wednesday afternoon with up to 5 inches of snow expected.

Make up your mind, Tennessee!

 

[Bruinaura]

Ha, this is cool. "I've never been that close to a string quartet"

Me when I'm served salad instead of ice cream

Cats are so underrated

I like the name Chibby. Somewhere is a dog who wants to live with you on Spahn ranch.

This is my dog Tessie who passed away 2 years ago. (I took this when I was going thru a cannibalism phase and Tessie liked smaller bones she could burry hence the wtf look)

I am watching the 50 years of SNL.

It opens with Paul Simon at 83 singing Homeward Bound. I remember him playing this with George Harrison

Steve Martin is the host...He is 79

This is so sad. The mule packers who helped so many people in NC and TN after Helene (and are still doing so) lost three of their mules when they got out of the pasture when a tree fell on the fence, and were struck in the road.

Back to cat videos!

You can’t treat animals well you are shit

So sad

Paul Simon hosted one of the first months SNL (he was fantastic & Art Garfunkel came out and they sang)

I watched the entire episode a few months ago

That show was so big when I was a kid - Paul Simon & George Harrison is iconic video to me

The 70’s were amazing sports & music and freedom.

@NeelyDan we used to go to school in the morning blasting lynyrd skynyrd, Mount, LZ (going to the making of Led Zeppelin movie tomorrow afternoon)

Got sleet, snow and arctic cold starting overnight tonight through Saturday. Starting Sunday we go into the 60’s/70’s. Just get me through this week and this sinus nonsense and I’ll be happy girl.

I was born in 76, but know firmly that the 70’s were when I was meant to live

I always thought the movie dazed and confused captured the vibe of that era so well

This weather is insane. Virtual cookies being sent your way.

Dude if you went to HS with me and hung out with us you would not believe how crazy and free wheeling it was

We went to concerts all the time ~ I must have seen 50 concerts easy I’m taking big boys

Dazed & Confused was exactly how we rolled back then

Drinking age was 18 and we had open campus in HS and could leave school.

I shit you not

I bet I golfed 3-4 days a week my senior year of HS during school hours in spring. At 2:05 when school was getting out, we would stop where we were on course and have a moment of silence

The 70s were unbelievable, I feel fortunate to have grown up during that time.

Led Zeppelin movie was great. Seeing concert footage at ear-splitting volume for someone who wasn’t yet born when they disbanded was awesome.

It’s an authorized biography so they don’t touch on the drugs, partying, etc. show ends with LZ II, so I assume they’re leaving room for a follow up.

Definitely worth the 2 hours. They wove a previously unreleased interview with John Bonham throughout the film and it was clear that the surviving members enjoyed hearing his voice.

@NeelyDan if you see it, go easy on the gummies. Some pretty trippy effects during some of the concert scenes

I, too, would have thrived in the 70s.

This may not make sense to some, but I truly mourn the loss of such times

It was cheap

I graduated from college early 80’s and took over my parents Bruins seats

Loge 7 row 1 seats 7&8 corner clock where Orr scored

40 games $400 ~ $10 a game

I worked one week in summer for my buddy putting in auto sprinklers at Beverly Golf Course

got $500…..paid for entire season, had money left over and still hadn’t even got a real job

Yowza- and this was 80’s

Honestly - if you think about it, and then contrast it with today - this is heartbreaking there’s no other word for it

Amanda loves the 70s music.

When to much gummy’s happen

There's no such thing as too much....

Woke up today with no heat in 2/3 zones, which makes up the living room, 3 bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom, and an office. Traced it to the circulators, which are running when called, but not pumping water. I feel hot water coming in, but nothing coming out. I suspect that they are air locked, but it's odd that the third circulator on the same line right beside the two bad ones is still working just fine. I just can't imagine two pumps that are less than 6 months old would fail on the same night. I'm lost.

So I have the heat blasting down in the dungeon for now where my office is. There are space heaters upstairs in the living room and the Queen of the castles office. We will likely bring mattresses down to the basement tonight to sleep unless me smacking the pumps with a hammer fixes the glitch.

Plumber is in Maine for the holiday weekend, returning tomorrow. He insists that both circulators have failed.
