Middle of the Night, Random Thoughts...


Dr. Phil's show a couple of weeks ago about how bad the 911 system is, was an absolute joke.
I'd like to see Dr. Phillis sit in a Communication's Center for a day and see what REALLY happens there.

Snowing again. Still no diabolical storm. But it did make driving into work fun. It's always fulfilling when you can pass a Trooper because they don't know how to driver their rear-wheel drive Patrol car in the snow.

I'm working tonight... which is not usual. But, 8 hours of Overtime at Double Pay is good cash during the Christmas season. Especially since I just put four new tires on the wifeys car.

Apparently people at work think I'm crazy for driving my '91 Cavalier into work without any chains. For one thing, I don't own chains. For two, I've never used chains and probably wouldn't know how to put them on. Remember peeps, I grew up in the Soo... Snow for 6 months out of the year. Now leave me alone already.

Today is PayDay. Nice. Check that. Tomorrow is PayDay.

It's amazing how many pipes are bursting in these parts due to the cold. Houses here just aren't insulated well enough to be able to handle this type of weather.

I wish I had a 4x4 truck with a winch so that I could pull fellow motorists out of the ditch. Its the giving season, so I'd only charge them 40 bucks. Tow trucks are charging 150.

Okay, let's talk about sports. Specifically the NFL. More specifically the Denver Broncos. What a sad state of affairs that team is. They could have wrapped up a division title in either of the last two weeks. But couldn't get it done. Now they have the near impossible task of going to San Diego and beating the Chargers who will be playing for the Division title themselves. Good going guys. Way to waste a season.

I think we'll go tobogganing again today. Must enjoy the snow while we have it because it'll inevitably be gone by the end of the week.

So...with the weather we have right now... I'm not really buying into the whole Global Warming thing.

And...this past summer wasn't all that hot either.

Okay, those are my random thoughts for the day.
