OK, that's the funniest thing I've read all week. What do they do, freeze in mid step in December and then continue on when they thaw out?

Being from Spokane, did you see that the body of a 79 yr old woman was found dumped at the waste to energy plant. Police say they suspect foul play. YA THINK!!

Pineapple - Meh.

Sauerkraut and chopped Canadian bacon on the other hand... There was a place in my home town that used to make that.

Now I want pizza.

After much research, I too chose an 850 PRO. Been running it almost a year now and very pleased with it. Quieter and faster than a hard drive and can stand higher heat, if that's a concern.

Brilliant!!

Reminds me of when I was a kid. Local town in NJ didn't want anyone to have one. Everyone had one anyway.

Either it was going to bring about the end of the world, or someone in the sewer department didn't want to work. Somehow, 50 years later, nothing has changed.

Chipmunks are not true hibernators. They are somnolent during the coldest months. Somnolent. Your new word of the day!

"Somnolent"... The new word I will use to describe...ME!

I took the SSD out of my long dead laptop. Samsung software failed 3 times to properly clone my hard drive. I used a third party program that came with the SATA cable...Bingo!

It's surprising how each appliance and just anything plugged in is efficient or wasteful. The so called phantom loads are an eye opener.

Hey, the person could have been feeling under the weather and climbed into a dumpster trying to find leftover sudafed, it started to rain so closed the lids and was overcome by illness and died. It could have happened that way. Who would think to leave a body in a dumpster?

A plate of olives on the side and a glass of Rioja drawn from the cask behind the bar. Mmmmm . . .

That sounds so good! Were the olives fresh?

If there is a wind chill is there a wind heat ?
Does humidity enter into wind chill or wind heat, if it exists?
