It's been extremely warm (records both Sat and Sun) here, in the upper 70's, but today's rain is bringing cooler temps. I just saw the hourly forecast temperatures through 8am Christmas morning: 29 degrees. If that holds true, my Christmas morning swim in our new pool will be an official Polar Bear swim. [:D]

I'm gonna make sure our new fireplace is already cranked up to go with my eggnog post swim. [8D]
You bastard![:D] Fireplace got the workout this weekend. It may hit -8F. today. A warm up on Christmas +12F.[8D]Lobster and T-bones.[&o]

Third low pressure storm(ish) system this winter to move through here tonight and tomorrow. I'm happy there's no snow to go with it.

You had better turn off the heater today so the water temp can keep pace! [:D]

Heater is off. It's a heat pump, so we're planning to start using it to warm up the pool around the end of March.

Travelling to Phoenix for Christmas tithe...

It's about 65F warmer there than here. [:D] Sorry for you suckers that have to deal with the snow, ice and cold for Christmas this year. @ USS Mike: I'll let you know how our swim at my folks' compares to your polar bear swim. [:'(]

Won't be back on THE THREAD until our return. Early Merry Christmas greetings, you lot. [&o][&o][&o]

Welp, Mikhail Kalashnikov died. Say what you will about him, but he had a good idea, and it worked.

Don't confuse the Americans. They'll think it's already the 25th, and panic...[:D]

And he made an excellent product ,with intent to defend his country. You can't fault him for what others did with it, any more than you can fault Winchester , Colt, Noble or a host of other inventors. I have one of his weapons , and I am constantly amazed with it's reliability.

Always lurking, rarely posting -- I wanted to say thanks to the devs for creating a richly detailed game, thanks for a dedicated core of players willing to share their hard earned knowledge and a special thanks for the hard core nutcases willing to mod and post AARs to attract newbies to jump off the deep end and give this cold splash of strategic planning a swim.

MERRY CHRISTMAS and have a 4 finger shot of your favorite spirit. In my case it will be the Glenlivet 18 with a Padron 64 toro (natural wrapper).

Again, thanks to All.
