I went for a wander and sat down next to a big pack of burgers that had been left there.
I’ve chucked them in the freezer

Leaving a 3” wide area for where plywood will meet :tup:
Only got 4/more sections to do this way & then it’s plywood time.

It's so hot in FL, spoiler could probably bake his bacon literally on the sidewalk with eggs on the side.

So then that means... we'll actually be better off with global warming to help balance out the cold sun. At least we've been doing something right :tup:

36 is mild? lol while I love the cold, the coldest it gets in FL is 40 and even then, the thick boots, scarves, peacoats, gloves, etc. all come out.

And no donuts?

I will be curious to hear what the so called experts have to say about carbon footprint since no one has been doing much driving around the world for a month or more?

Went to Nissan stealership yetserday to order a few fasteners. As I was closing the door on the gf;s ford focus, I realized I left the keys inside....DOH!! Locked out. Asked the service guy if they had tools to open my door (didnt want to wait for my roadside assistance). Yep, they did. The tech comes out, fumbling with opening the door. He manages to unlock the lock, but instead of removing the door wedge out, then opening the door, he keeps it wedged and pulls the door handle...UGH.. he breaks the little plastic clip that manipulates the door mechanism. Then another tech comes out and helps and they had to go to the passenger side to unlock it.
Took them almost an hour. The first tech knows he broke the handle, and as he walks away, he looks back looking a little freaked out because he broke my sht. lol
Nah dude, Im not gonna file a complaint. That door handle was a pain to pull open and I was planning on replacing it anyway. lol

We build sand angels and sandmans in FL :mad::shakes head: a plus for them is that they don't melt :icon17:

oh and we have sand ball fights, though this tends to lead to actual fist fights :confused:

I was in -10 degree weather in Missouri one winter. One saturday was nice and sunny. Washed my car in shorts, a tshirt and flip flops. It was 30 degrees but felt like a heatwave...lol

How many manufacturers shut down, too?


I guarantee whatever the impact, the green freaks will deny it or downplay it tremendously :rolleyes:

Let's see where to start. The canal waters in Venice, Italy are clear from lack of boat traffic, the peaks of the Himalayas can be seen in India for the first time in over a few decades due to less air pollution, the entire Earth's vibrations are significantly less due to COVID-19 lockdowns, the pollution map of Earth is way down compared to even just a year ago....

This is, of course, what the media tells us anyway, so do take with a grain of salt :tiphat:

FL folks find it fascinating/astonishing when northerners come to FL during our "winters" and they are wearing beach clothing, while the FL natives are bundled up.

I can see it now... some congressional proposal of an annual COVID memorial month where everything shuts down and everyone stays home to help with global warming. Who cares what it does to the people and economy :bowrofl:

Nope, but interestingly, that same winter on my way to Missouri, I drove through Flagstaff, Az and my Honda Prelude had icicles under the front bumper. looked pretty wicked.
