Coffee Break # 4 Waiting on Spring!

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

feel better Dave!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

ZZZZZZZZZZZZ's will help too.

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Hope you are up to par real soon, Dave.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

What's the cutoff for 'young and stupid'?? A-rod was 28 in 2003. (Incidentally, I was 28 when I got married. Hmmm)

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

The cutoff is any age younger than you are now.
Crazy, isn't it? Adolescence now begins earlier than ever (10 or 11) and apparently ends around 40.

Springfield, MA(Zone 6a)

Hey Dave47 - that puts you and me in "early adulthood," right? ^_^

8 people charge with the Phelps incident, Phelps not charged yet.

Yes it is, Dave. More of the same lack of responsibility.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Miguel Tejada was charged with lying to Congress about his steroid use. He's copping a plea. (What's the penalty when Congress lies to us?!)

Springfield, MA(Zone 6a)

what? are you saying that politicians lie? next thing you'll be telling us corporate America is greedy and unethical . . . ^_^

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

You just burst my bubble!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

What about corporate Canada??^_^

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Wow, I never would have known.

South Hamilton, MA

Studies like that are garbage.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

Corporate Canada is reputed to be full of ethical, charitable human beings, just like Canadian Politicians are. I'm sure that there is a humane reason for why they are all stinking rich and recently approved pay raises for themselves while signing the latest batch of pink slips. O did I say that with my outside voice????

Halifax, MA(Zone 6a)

LOL! Cousin nut, you are too funny!

Victor, I just didn't know that about rich people (not!!!!). Oh, I have a friend who says her son, who came from a family who had (and still has) nothing, is a real snob. Go figure!

Oh, Dave, I hope you are feeling better real soon!

Went to the movies tonight and saw Taken with Liam Neesan. Very good! Really brings home the tragedy of white slavery. People who do that make me disgusted.

Willie, those muffins sound good. I bet they would be good with ground flax seed, too. I've been using that in my oatmeal in the morning, and it's quite good. Provides those great omega-3 fats. I have been eating the steel cut organic oats, too.

I don't think we should get started with politics...very dangerous...like why bailout money is paying for a new jet???? I guess that's what you get when you hire the Keystone Cops.

Buffalo, NY(Zone 6a)

What is this "politics" y'all keep talking about ..... sounds fun!

Karen: I have been thinking of alternative ingredients .... and following the cranberry farm thread, I think they would be a great substitute for blueberries in there, too ....

Willie - cranberries are great in muffins: I substitute OJ for milk, and throw in a bit of orange zest. Sugar content goes up a bit if using fresh crans; not necessary if you use the dried crans.

Buffalo, NY(Zone 6a)

Well, then ..... FRESH crans it is!! Thanks for the OJ tip, too!

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Anita, stepping out on a limb?

Well, stayed home again today. This makes 4 days! I was planning on going in today but woke up feeling lousy. Just to show how much I'm not faking, I turned down a free ticket for Uconn vs Syracuse this evening.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Wow - you are sick, Dave! Feel better.

Fairfield County, CT(Zone 6b)

Is it Spring yet? At least some of the snow in my yard is gone and I can see the straw mulch I put down again. Maybe I can get the rest of the bale out of my trunk before it snows again.

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

latest bailout has univeral healthcare written into it and no one is talking about it. get ready for long waits for health care if it stays.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

This was the right place to be stupid!

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D96928F00&show_article=1&catnum=9

There is still about 2' out there - I went out and investigated. BUT where it has been shoveled or plowed there is teene weene sprouts of green grass... blaa

Good grief - there is stupid people out there.

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

i did not read the whole article - was his name plaxico?

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Hee hee.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

so hard to not talk about the stupidlus package

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

last night on the news i believe they had an economics guy claiming if they gave each tax payer the $$ it would fix the economy faster. and companies would be forced to compete for our dollars. trickle up economics - sounds good to me - the local garden centers would be happy as i would be getting fully grown JM's instead of the 3-4-5' ones:)

ya, sounds good to me

Fairfield County, CT(Zone 6b)

And the garden genie wouldn't have to bring me those brick walkways. How much would we each get anyway?

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

well my buddy says if we all got back what we paid out in taxes would be fair - me i would like it split evenly that way we could split the trillion dollars between only tax payers and get a mill apiece or so - i did not due to exact math

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

The best plan is to give it all to me and count on my generosity.^_^

Fairfield County, CT(Zone 6b)

Uh huh.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

EEk--a free ticket to Gampel, Dave? I wished I lived closer to Storrs--no, I don't---too flat out there for me! I'll only get to see the 2nd half tonight---have a discussion to attend that ends at 8.
