    TABBY I’d like to eat everything but I’d grow fat, er, fatter. Wait, virtual food equals virtual weigh gain. Virtual weigh reduces physical weight. Therefore, to lose weight I should eat more. I love cartoon physics.

    Morning TRIBE! Be sure to pick up a copy of Lewreader”s Virtual Weight Loss, sold in better comic strips everywhere.

    No Problem, Doc. I was bushed last night and didn’t go shopping. My co-worker’s father died early Friday morning so I’m holding down the fort. My supervisor, who’s been helping me keep on top of stuff, got sick as well, so I slogged on as best I could.

    I still had lots to do Friday but at 5:45 our boss ran us out. we were all there until 5:30, when our lone gentleman left…he had an appointment (date?). At 5:45 our boss called out for us to go home. I was so tired I said, I’m shitting down now…..and it took me 15 minutes to close everything down.

    Anyway, I hope to have my desk back in my room sometime next weekend. This weekend I’m turning my bed around (to make room) and preparing spaces. And dashing out to the dragon early today, I have a piece I’m pushing to finish.

    You should be nervous Doc! It is warming up and the snow is melting, but there is still SO much on the ground! And there is a HUGE thick solid piece of ice hanging from one of the rain gutters. It looks pretty, but I’m afraid of what may happen before it melts!

    Morning, Tribe! Congratulations, *Terry! Welcome, Grandma! I’m trying to hurry up & get laundry & my comics read before I lose power. We’re getting a mixture of rain & ice now, and probably more ice this evening. The freeze line is right around Wichita - north gets snow, south gets ice. I’m south. As much as I dislike snow, I really hate ice! At least with snow, there is less chance of losing our electricity & internet.

    Cleo & Doc - Speaking as someone who is great at delegating work…(now if I could only get those people to do the work I assign…) Just don’t do the job up to the expected standards. This, of course, isn’t a good strategy for staying employed, but if you WANT to lose the job, this will usually keep you from being asked to do it again. This is the main reason I’m not having any male help at my mom’s right now. Us women will search through everything before we toss it in the trash, unlike the males in my family. We’re finding all sorts of interesting stuff in the process. Like brochures from the World Trade Center in NYC, saying on the front “The closest some of us will ever get to heaven.” Spooky!

    Good afternoon cleo I was in the Strand area. I didn’t really notice any dying oaks. I noticed the palm trees lining the blvd. were doing alright. A couple buildings boarded up, but it looked like the whole area I was in was open for business.

    For the moment though, there’s even free parking until they get the meters fixed - then it’s rumored they’ll increase the price.

    I actually bought the painting that I was looking at. Rainbow Row, Charleston, an impressionist piece.

    Speaking of dinner, I better start getting mine on. It’ll take a bit to bring it up to boil and then another 3 hours to simmer.

    But the bourbon baked beans do sound good. It’s making me hungry right now. Oh, and I’m cooking up corned beef and cabage for tonight. I’m gearing up a little early for St. Patrick’s day.

    yyyguy For some reason that makes me think of steak & kidney pie. The last time I had that was in an Elephant & Castle in Edmonton. But I don’t think I could make it myself.

    On the other hand maybe I can. During the Christmas Holidays I made a French Canadian meat pie from scratch. It was pretty good, too.

    BC13 they’re very similar. instead of having a crust of some sort surrounding your filling, just cover the top of it with mashed potatoes. that’s essentially the difference.

    I love Tourtiere. We had it this last Christmas Eve and do it guiet often then. I used to spend my winters in Southern Texas. There are a lot of Quebec visiters and they would make it each year.

    One thing from Montreal I wish I could make on my own is the smoked meat sandwich. Pastrami and corned beef are ok, but don’t quite cut it. I miss the smoked meat from Reubins Deli.

    Hi BC13, yguy and Cleo! Just stopped in but you guys are making me hungry.

    yguy shephards pie as in mashed potatoes being the crust? Made with lamb, venison, or beef?

    BC13 croned beef and cabbage, yum? Do you add onions and carrots sometimes?

    Cleo as always, your meal sounds delicious too!

    Hi, Dry.

    Actually I have been doing IM with my little sister tonight. She says she can’t sleep so she is on this late which is unusual.

    Hi Terry. We had a great dinner. Just kind of visiting between visiting with our guest who is a real sweetie, by the way.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    UncleWhy - I like this avatar better, the other one was nice (really nice actually) but it was so calm I kept accidently passing you by…..and not realizing it until it was too late.

    Welcome to the circus GmaTippyToes!

    Yes, another day come and gone. I’m going to stay for the turnover, catch a bit of the toon tour and then get ready for the horizontal position. I need to be up early as James is singing in the choir at church these days. But it is so nice.
