Good morning INP!

Per your other post (too lazy to find it lol)

I live with six (6) females! One is woman, the other 5 are felines.

I am the only male in the house!

My office is upstairs, and so are my guitars, sometimes it the best place to retreat!

LOL

Morning Gentlemen. Ladies.

Well now, it is morning here but isn't afternoon there yet?

Enjoy your day, the best that you can.

Well... it is afternoon now, but it was late morning when I wrote 'morning'. However, if I am to adapt to what time it is locally when anyone, or everyone, reads my posts, then I have to use another tack than to say 'morning' to them.

Hey. How are you doing.

I am doing better than last weekend. But at least we are still on the top side of the grass!

Another way to say it is "Have a good day everyone!"

But I can still see snow some places, especially if I look online. But I am thinking of making cinnamon rolls tomorrow. That should definitely bring up my blood sugar!

One could, but I would not, because then I would be lying. I do not consider today a good day. I consider it a lousy day. However, with that said, I do wish that you have a very nice day.

There is always snow somewhere out there.

Two days ago I threw a snowball. The last one for me for this winter, I am sure. No snow to be seen around here.

[RangerJoe]

Well, if you have a lousy day I hope that you don't have lice or even a singular louse!

I have been seeing that Hell.No is still getting a little snow every so often. If you went to the mountains you probably would be able to throw another snowball.

But if you really want to freak people out during the winter, come in with a dish with shaved ice with concentrated lemonade poured on it, taste it, then say something like "Yellow snow, it is so delicious and refreshing!" Or even say the equivalent in Swedish!

Warmer weather coming in now, so it would be a major setback with more snow. However, high up in the mountains there is always snow. Although, I am not sure if they call that snow.

I once walked on hard packed snow in early august. And not really that high up in the mountains either.

And it is not that I personally have an lousy day. I think any day that the world doesn't get to become a better place is a wasted day. And a wasted day is not a good day.

I understand what you say about the world not getting better, but I temper that impression by knowing that news organizations gather all the bad news to make their reports and leave out the good stuff. No matter what, life will try to beat us down physically and mentally but we owe it to those who live on after us to keep up the good fight to the end. The world will be a bit better for that than if we give up in exasperation.

The bad news makes more money than the good news.

Look at the Ukrainian woman high jumper who earned the silver medal at the world outdoor championships and the gold medal at the indoor championships. That lovely 21 year old could jump over me anytime - I mean, literally jump over me! But was it on the news? Especially with her difficulties training and getting to the championships?

That is same as it ever was. Negative events gets more attention from news organizations, so that has not changed.

That is a pretty low standard. I have yet to meet you, but I am pretty sure that I could literally jump over you. And I am a grumpy, old, overweight, geezer, in lousy condition.

Hi all,

Good morning!

Good morning folks.

My solution to negative media news stuff on TV is to not watch it. I just read stuff online, and make my own informed opinion on things. Since I stopped watching TV news I have been more relaxed, less stressed and less worried about things. I also don't listen to radio or podcast talk shows anymore, its all stuff to get your emotions worked up and to make people feel and react a certain way, which in turn causes people to act in negative ways. That can all be changed by not watching the Programmed Tell A Vision stuff, and reading and thinking for your self and treating folks with respect, kindness, dignity and love.

Made my life a whole lot better, your mileage may vary (YMMV).

My error, I should have stated while I was standing up that she could jump over me. Since I am not even 2 meters tall and she can jump higher than that, she could jump over me. That would be a nice sight for me to see!

I used to listen to my favorite music/ news station from Boston. But I also don't listen to anything broadcast news anymore. They have to sensationalize everything....GP

I too am a grumpy old son of a b...h. The editor got me. Keep it clean....GP

Well here I go again on my own....GP
