Official... raise your post count thread!!

Electronic cigarettes are saving me money. The nicotine cartridge is $2.50 each and pack of cigarettes is $8.12.
 
Hi Ho's!!! busy day. Pick up and deliver my parents furniture. Take old mattresses to the dump and couches to Goodwill.
 
When you come down to pick up that Donzi, I have three mattresses and a sofa that you can take to the dump for me. It's only 8 miles away.
 
Looks like my folks are still without power. According to the Edison website it will be back on by Wed. evening.
I haven't heard anything from them, cell phone battery probably died.
They only have one cell phone, and it's gotta be at least 12 yrs old.
 
Got an email into the Donzi, hasn't got back yet!!!!! I try to avoid manual labor. Most of my moves I've had movers to do most of the labor. The only job that I've done manual labor was folding clothes at a clothing store. Wasn't in college and someone suggested getting a job in the mall was a great way to meet girls. Store had 3 guys and 30 girls working, all the gals good looking.

Maybe 10-12 miles.

Just got a call from them. They're doing OK, but no gas or electric.
I told Dad to go get a room someplace, but no, he's being Daniel Boone...

Dad is turning the phone off to save battery, and only charging it in his van if they go out.
Said the neighborhood looks like a war zone.
Looks like it basically hit a mile long stretch right down their street.

Already threw everything out in the refrigerator.
I suggested they just go to the new casino for dinner, and play slots - hey, they got lucky that they were missed by just a few houses.

Many local businesses are without power. Restaurants are packed.

I guess they are saying it was F2.

My Mom just turned 69, and Dad will be 70 in 3 weeks. They don't need to deal with this. I wish they'd just go get a hotel room.
 
Make sure they're okay on heat. Here in MI we have over 200,000 without power and they are saying it will be next week Friday before they have it all restored. And tonight it's supposed to start getting cold.

My Dad would have been the same way. Camp stove and a lantern and good for weeks!!

It was an F2. Started on the other side of the river from me and went for 12 miles north and east.

There were also 2 F1s.
Let me know if they need anything.
Agree... they need to go to a hotel room.
