What's new

The Coffee House

Actually, axial tilt is the reason for the season.
 
Lunch was nice; I had salmon, BBQ beans and a baked potato. Oh, and bourbon blackberry lemonade.

We can’t put the tires on until Sunday, so while the Michelin Man is doing his thing, we have tickets for The Last Jedi.
 
The projector and big screen are up and running for the game. With the new receiver Gary had to pull stuff apart and re/configure stuff around. Gary set it up making it easier to re-setup. Fight On!
 
@Gary A. I was going to shout out an encouraging school battle cry, but I realized I didn't know any, so I did a Google search and only turned up a couple if lukewarm ones. "Fight On USC" doesn't really rally the team much. Am I missing something, I'm used to everyone knowing who I'm talking about when I say "Roll Tide", "War Eagle", "Go Dawgs", "Hook'em Horns", "Go State", "Gig Em". Even Florida had "Go Gators", but I heard it's been changed to "Do Something Gators - anything" (sorry Leo couldn't resist) LOL

You can count on me to be rooting for USC though, partly because of deference to your team, and partly because I can't stand Ohio State.:allteeth:

I hope USC kicks butt. Big time cheering USC!
 
I think Maryland’s cry was “Go the @$#% home!” Actually it was the playing of Rock and Roll, Part 2 and instead of yelling "Hey" like the original, you'd yell "You Suck."

You took the words right out of my mouth!

The act of dying and being reborn, visible in trees for example, corresponds to the cycle of the seasons, which corresponds to seasonal festivities.

But: axial tilt is not the only reason for the seasons. We had another climate with Crocodiles roaming what we call the "North Pole" in our glacial times of today. This was a fully tropical planet: "In the northern polar region, therefore, about 53.5 million years ago prevailed almost tropical climate with temperatures of up to 27 degrees." writes Appy Sluijs, who found palm pollen in the arctic.

Went to BAM (Books-A-Million) after we got home. They have some neat t-shirts.

Dave reads insatiable (among other things he does). The thing next on the list is to go to work again.

Taking Snowbear's first tshirt example to heart, I must say that would be " Dave reads insatiably..." Lol.

My t-shirt would say “Modifiers are a b*tch”.”
 
Morning all! Looks like today is the last "semi warm" day before the deep freeze door opens, so looks to be a busy day as I finish up outside chores.
