The "Whatever" Thread

Happy birthday to Hanna, John! I've witnessed first hand the power of having a "cancer buddy". It's most excellent that both of those strong, young women have each other in their lives.
 
I stuck my thumb in a light socket while changing bulbs.
Boy does it burn.;)

I'm seldom surprised at the lack of common sense many people show on a day to day basis. There's a good size construction project underway in the area of the mill where I work. There's enough going on that a temporary smoking area was established for the workers. I couldn't believe it when I walked by the smoking area just now and saw that someone had set up a temporary fuel tank and pump not 15 feet away from the smoking area which was clearly labeled. I try to not get involved in things that are not directly my job but felt compelled to mention it to someone. Hopefully there will be no explosion within the next 45 minutes when my normal work week ends.

Tick tock, tick tock.:eek:

Remember boys and girls...

Safety starts with YOU!
 
Random acts of kindness are nice and I've been the occasional beneficiary of such acts from my neighbors over the years. We were outside playing in the snow just now and I noticed one of our neighbors walking towards us carrying something. He had made us each a cup of cocoa and included a dish of his mother's homemade peppermint bark. I didn't know what to say about such a kind act other than thank you. I'll have to figure out a way to play it forward.

Hope you get to spend a lot of time together. My son's wife is starting a new job next week and it may prevent them from making it home for Christmas. If that happens it will be the first Christmas I didn't get to see him. I hate the thought but his wife is making what I consider a good move for them. She's taking a pay cut but getting a much better work schedule.
 
Did anybody see the meteor shower the other night?
I was lucky enough to catch a half hour window before the clouds closed in again and saw 5 shooters.

On another note, the hills around me have snow on the tops.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here.:cool:
