@7@ I think we should ban theses AZ guys from the site for the winter, I can see whats coming while we are freezing.

AZ-Went for a dip in the pool today.  NJ-the lake froze over last night.
AZ -Gee, I wish it would cool off a little.    NJ-went down to 15o today
AZ -Had to take my shirt off while working on the car.  NJ-car won't turn over, to cold.
AZ -Thought I would get a few rays today to help my tan.  NJ-had to dig out the long jons today.
etc.
etc.
etc.

Jack,Jack,Jack...... @7@

Let me put these absurd notions you have to rest once and for all. @3#
Went for a dip...nonsense. I only have until the end of the month, maybe first week in November.
Wish it would cool off a little...I"ll have you know that there are some days it doesn't get up to 70....until 11:00am  m-d
Take my shirt off to work on the car?!? Shirts are only worn in public...or when a good looking girl walks down the street. I used to be good looking when I was younger. But now the girls look at me and think...EWWWWWWW!!!! :icon_eek:
Help my tan...no one here needs help. It is a year round thing. :icon_cheesygrin:
Who is this long jon person? We have a Long Johns but it is a place that sells fish. I don't know what that has to do with winter. ???

 As cold as it gets there in the winter wethsnow wethsnow wethsnow wethsnow wethsnow it is just as hot during the summer here. :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny:

Overall I think you might have the advantage. You can always put on more clothes...I can only take so many off mooning

In theory I have 3 helpers....

Last night I made up a "To do List" under it I wrote " So much to do, so little time" 

But I know the real answer- With all of the get well  fruit baskets Joan got, I will be
spending all my time getting rid of the fruit flies  @7@  fig2   %6%

No help needed, we got 3 million ideas already. My answer-burn the place down
and buy a class A motorhome  .///    OOPS I'm a life time member of the fire co.  @3#
