Browncoat Bar & Grill - The Longest Weekend by Nicodemus

hey Nico :cheers:, Rose *hugs*

This is a rare weekend appearance from me :)

Rose, I now know your pain, as my parents re too stubborn to get rid of their dial-up, which I am currently using.

Nico, it's good to see you around, glad you got through all the fires unscathed (hopefully). We've missed you around here.

Good morning! No need for ice here in Tennessee this morning, it's COLD! In the 20's...I'm mourning the death of my tomato plants that I stupidly set out last week when it was in the 80's.... ah, well... It's my turn to work this weekend so I'll just have some coffee and split! Have a great day.

It's 17 degrees here in the Mythical Land that is Iowa...I so wanted to get some outside work done this weekend!! My only consolation is that it's too cold for the weeds to grow too! :biggrin:

Barkeep! I'll have a coke and a bit of dark chocolate!

This superhero is rather sick at the moment, coughing and spluttering. It should pass in due time however, so I'm here to remind people that I'm not dead.

Hello to all! My fingers are all stained from egg dunking with the boys.

Barkeep! I'd like to place an order please: 1 Aussie, lightly toasted, for hugging purposes. I'll wait 'till PR's done.

Nevermind, nobody's got that long to wait... :wink: Consider yourself hugged Nico.

Still got any ice cream left? Maybe half a scoop of a rich creamy vanilla with a swirl of port in it?

Failing that I'll take three fingers of a nice Porto and retire to a quiet corner to plot tomorrow's dinner. I brought the leftover "Love Bread" with me. It's pizza dough stuffed with dried fruit, nuts, cream cheese, jam, whatever suits your fancy while you're making it. It's called Love Bread because sonny named it that because "you make it when you love someone". .....aaawwwww..... Dig in, it's a big loaf!

Y'all know me so well. How do you know me so well?

Alright, so this is kinda random in the context, but many threads ago there was talk about 'perfect martinis'. I thought I should post a picture of mine.

Yes, the juice brand actually is 'Naked'. That's Berry Blast and Mighty Mango, respectively. Isn't it pretty? Delicious, too...

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Sorry if you are reading this twice, I am posting at both the water cooler and the pub.

I am away from my computer all week doing soldering training (I found out as I walked into the building this morning). I may try to come in and check before work, though that depends on me actually getting up to do so. I may also try to find someone's computer to use, and if I can't, then I'll have a lot of catching up to do next week. Y'all have a shiny one!

They won't let us play with anything that cool. All we have is soldering irons and de-solderers, though there is a solder pot in the room. It's basically the size and shape of a fondue pot, but it's filled with molten solder. :biggrin:

Man I hate drywall! Should be able to paint tonight though and then hopefully start installing the cabinets tomorrow. We decided to re-wire the kitchen while we had it torn out so we are a few days behind schedule. But hey 2 days of wiring for free basically. I saved a few grand:biggrin: I guess. Even though I hate messing with power.
