Coffee Break #26 - Feeling like winter!

I just want to see it bloom...once. lol

Then kill it?? ^_^

No! LOL I have 3, have only seen one bloom once.

breaking news - red sox will sign john lackey formally of the angles - 85M 5 years = 17M/yr. - we usually beat this guy/not sure if i like the deal need to see his record against the yankees

Good luck with that, Bill. He's pretty good. We're hoping for Bay and Molina.

They moved the camera so you can see the ice skaters now.

Phoebe - Cornus kousa 'Satomi' is very nice. Great, late-blooming, long-lasting pink flowers with fantastic fall color. One of my faves.

You can;t have Jason Bay!!!!!!!!

Sox don't want him.

I've spoken to my boys and told them if Santa is kissing mommy, Santa's getting an a** whuppin'!!

didn't know you were into that?

Not sure Bay is worth over 60M - stikes out a lot and looks bad doing it - Sox still are working to sign him though

But he's so cute! ^_^

Cute doesn't drive in runs. However better than having Manny around.

Hey, maybe Phoebe was talking about Santa. He's cute! Maybe Mommy couldn't resist.

I'm not sure I like either choice for the Mets, but good choice of trees for Phoebe. How large a conifer for your friends, Victor?

I think I'll take Santa! I love a fuzzy face! ^_^

thanks guys.. Randy and I managed to get 10 foot of lights to form a christmas tree today.. Randy is going to run the wires tomorrow... I will take some better videos once we are done

A dwarf, Robin.

Don't ya just hate it when you're balancing the checkbook and you're a couple cents off...UGH!!!!!! 8¢ where are you???

victor i have never seen a dwarf robin before - actually didn't know there were dwarf birds - how big are the wings? can they still fly?

Comma, Bill.

Jen - I have not balanced a checkbook in about 14 years - since I went to online banking.

Anyone see the new NYC Dept of Health video about soda?! Petty gross - drinking fat.

Gross alert!!!

Business books.

Ok, I am SO not watching that video.

OOOh. So glad i never developed a taste for soda. Too acidic for me.

I never liked it either, Joyce. Even as a kid.

pretty gross video!

Reminds me of Rocky drinking the raw eggs.

I gave up soda when my friend was dying and the only thing that cleaned out the gunk in his feeding tube was soda. Gave it up right then and there after seeing that.

That'll do it.

Yep. They say cola will melt rust. Some people use it like WD40.

Uh-oh....

I think they busted that soda eating rust away in Mythbusters. Soda is still pretty gross.

I don't think so.

Oh phooey! When's the last time you had battery acid deposits in your tube?(esophagus)

Dave's got a last frost date finder now...

That's pretty neat!

Huh! I put my zip code in and got stats for Hampshlre Ma and Worcester Ma county stats. That's Boojum's area, and I know we are a bit warmer than she is...

Doesn't look accurate. Have mine as 4/21. Way too early. I have seen it given as well into mid-May.

Gotta love this guy's honesty.

I wouldn't trust everything I see on Youtube. Mythbusters did the same test and water cleaned the battery acid just as well.

I love caffeine free diet pepsi. I don't drink coffee, so I think my liquid acid intake is ok. Coffee is also an excellent cleaner.
