If I were to design a yard roomba I'd make it look like a turtle.

Why cannot there be a driveway roomba for snow? Most of the time just zipping back and forth could keep the lane clear. Rare to be snowing so heavily that it couldn't keep up.

Lawyerliz said...

Turtles are good. Kitnsba would be harder. Or tortuses. If they could cut military spending to make them. You might be able to hand them out and get the women on your side.

Lawyerliz said...

Go for it.

I would love for mom'n'pop breakfast places to thrive. Weight Watchers just revised their dietary formulae. Something I long suspected, a couple eggs are zero points. The protein "filling" and displacement of bad foods that don't satisfy makes sense.

My personal diet balance? Count your teeth. Got any sugar teeth? How many grains teeth? A very few and those also for fruits and veggies. How many meat teeth? How many vegetable teeth? There's your food pyramid.

Lawyerliz said...

I had an argument like that with a vegan. Only mine involved the medium length suitable for omnivores. Which ours are. Lions can't lie down with lambs because they are mandatory carnivores. As are domestic cats.

Driveway Roomba for snow!? Isn't that what flame throwers are for?

Lawyerliz said...

Intestines!!!

Found The Secret Archiveso
of the Vatican. While looking or books to give To good WIll. Sounds mysterious. I've got rid of a fair amount of stuff, but it seems like nothing is gone.

Me Three. It seems like I keep filling the recycling bins, but the garage and the storage lockers don't seem to be getting any emptier.

Anybody else have a Jenga attic? Yeah. This quarter is the Great house diet. We’ve already warned the kids about Easter and it may not be here when you next return.

Breakfast 3 over easy, 1/2 piece of toast, Banana, OJ with a big hand full of pills.

It's nice having 2 cars and a pick up, motor home, two jets skis. That really is really downsizing for me. I might trade a jet ski for a boat.

Stuff seems to multiply even when I get rid of it. The shed is becoming organized and there is really a lot of room.

Vehicles are not counted when passing through the camel’s eye.

God wants a Vincent Black Shadow with downdraft carbs but cannot find a selkerbat any price.

Lawyerliz said...

What bothers m e is the little stuff that I need to make decisions about an I don't want to think about at all. Of course that's how I got all this stuff to begin with. AND I lost 95% of my stuff in hurricane Andrew. I don't count cars, good quality furniture and real jewelry as stuff.

Lawyerliz said...

Agreed, see below.

Lawyerliz said...

Selferbat? Seller at?

Lawyerliz said...

You could try for a black Lightning.

Lawyerliz said...

Hah! I zapped dawg for a ridiculous spelling error

4-8" of snow on Thursday. High temp of 3° on Saturday. Low of-12°.... Faaaaaaak

Lawyerliz said...

Good night.😀. In 30s at nite later this week.

Lawyerliz said...

Article on women rising because me fell. Lots of good work done by these men. Replacing women probably just as good prolly, though different. I do worry about a big backlash.

Lawyerliz said...

Men fell.

Lawyerliz said...

I haven't touched the garage.

Lawyerliz said...

Most kids stuff gone. Not son's golf clubs.
All baby stuff gone. Son wrecked hand me down crib by vigorously making it sway back and forth.

Rob Dawg said...

As the upper crust pulls away from the rest lots of job shuffling is to be expected. Even natural diffusion is going to increase powerful positions held by women.

Good morning. Almost dipped below 60 overnight.

Headed off to the Big Island for our yearly experience of how the rich and famous live. Freeze in the dark right coasters!!!

Rob Dawg said...

Mein Gott! Less than four weeks until Honolulu for us. Breckinridge in June. Cape Cod and the Adirondacks in October. Have fun DD.

Rob Dawg said...

Charleston Airport closed? Wow.

Lawyerliz said...

Star Wars not great, in my opinion.

Rob Dawg said...

None of them ever were more than popcorn Saturday fare. I never understood the cult that has grown around such weak premises.

There must be several dozen classic sci-fi universes that would be much richer and engaging.

LBD said...

Say Star Wars at the ABC entertainment center in Century City. They had the first awesome sound in a theater and a big screen. That made it really cool. I think the last one I saw was the third one and really don't remember it.

Cinco-X said...

Ya... I felt the same, but everyone else in the family loved it

Cinco-X said...

The dialogue was weak, but the storyline was adequate, and the special effects basically created an industry of Summer Blockbusters

Lawyerliz said...

It is 34° out

Lawyerliz said...

That was the liw too.

Lawyerliz said...

Low

LBD said...

Good Morning!

21F high 39F today. Weather, funny thing.

LBD said...

25K hats! 4K see ya on the way back down!

Rob Dawg said...

Definitely shorts weather again today. For the interested my sisters summer house in Chatham Ma on Capr Cod is a couple blocks west of The Squire. Just out of sight on this webcam:

The streets are deserted and blustery rain for now but I expect some big snow soon.

Lawyerliz said...

Bosto, white out conditions.

Rob Dawg said...

Interesting observations on CNBC. Both the ancient Art Cashon and now another talking head have mentioned that there are very few equities managers who have ever seen a bull market. They certainly weren’t running big money back then.

UMDan said...

Minus 8 early this morning here in balmy far Northern Illinois. Need to bundle up and re-stock the bird and squirrel feeders. My daughter who lives near Ft. Bragg, NC has more snow than we do. Looks like the Christmas decorations on the house will be up for a while....
