Morning all. I woke up to Thundersnow this morning. Kinda cool. It doesn't sound like normal thunder. It's snowing pretty good here. It wasn't snowing at midnight when I went to bed, but we probably have an inch already and it's supposed to snow the rest of the day. And my wife is still pregnant and seemed to be having a lot of contractions last night. I hope the baby doesn't decided today is the day. It's gonna be a mess trying to get to the birthing center!

If today is the day, take the Miata. That'd be a helluva story.

Ugh, there is nothing worse than soggy fruity pebbles. Except soggy cocoa krispies. I'm going to have to take the plunge and buy this damned over-priced bowl of awesomeness.

What the hell. It comes on a pedestal so you can hold it while you watch the news in the morning?! Dammit, now I must buy.

haha, read this review about the spoon.

The spoon was actually well thought out too. It's a good weight and has a ball and the handling end. The ball fits rather nicely with your thumb on one side (when holding the spoon properly) and your pointer finger fits into a divot at the other side. It's pretty ergonomic!

The spoon looks like something a "handicapped" person would use.

LOL, that would be a heck of a story, but trying to get the baby back in a 2 seater wouldn't quite work unless I made my wife walk home, LOL!!! Plus I couldn't get it out if I wanted to. The Miata is parked on the street and when they plowed, they basically buried it. That thing isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Morning all! I started off wanting to kick my roommate in the nads. I let him take my car to the stoor since it was already cleared off. He locked all the doors in the middle of an ice storm. I ended up late because it took 10 minutes to finally get the passenger door open to crawl through. The drivers lock is still frozen solid. :slap:

WHOOPS! That doesn't happen to me as often as it used to in PA, but when it does you're nothing but pissed off and freezing cold because its likely still windy out. Most often the easiest way into my T/A when it was iced shut was through the hatch.

That's funny, I always want to kick my roommate in the nads for leaving my door unlocked.

LOL I never lock the door in my daily. First off I don't have problems with it in my neighborhood. And second a window is more expensive than a cd player and that is the only thing in my car.

Here you'd be more likely to find someone stealing your parking change, any tools out of the trunk or in the backseat or some crackhead spending a night in your car and possibly relieving himself in it. Some of us have to carry quite a bit of equipment to work every day and no garage to keep it all in.
