thanks. i'll jot them all down and see if any fit on my map lines. :D
the place i was trying to remember was Goodson’s Café in Tomball, TX.
/me does not keep tabs on Yosef. I hope he is fine.


Of course I should have remembered that. :o

Ok, so here is the good news and the bad news!

Good news first. Goodson's has great food and a killer chicken fried steak. It's only about 15-20 minute drive from where I live. With a little warning I'd meet you there for lunch.:)

Bad news is that Tomball is a good 350 mile drive from anywhere I would call West Texas. Goodson's is good, but not that good.

Never fear though, I've put my crack research team on standby. We wont let you leave Teaxs without having a good chicken fried steak. I'm sure we can point you to some good BBQ and Tex-Mex as well.

Good morning, threadies far and near! :)

Well the storm's passed through our area; not sure if the Northeast is still getting hammered. Just checked and the neighborhood streets are still untreated, so they've delayed school openings for two hours.

I chuckled (and nodded) when I watched Pres. Obama needling DC's response to the ice we got yesterday:

Me too, when I saw the news...but what he says is true :) All in all, it really does depend on other conditions besides just the snow or ice. Other factors would be the type of snow, wind, etc... We've had school here where it has snowed 8 inches overnight and into the morning :D

well, if you'd rather. we do have these unattached yurts we rent out - just through the gates.


watch your step. there's lizards running loose in there.


Excuse me, what did you say? Did you say yurts? What's a yurt? (Look like dogs to me.)

Thanks for the pix, but I was really only jumping at a chance to do a My Cousin Vinny riff. It and The Magnificent Seven are the only two movies I know the dialogue without prompting. And by coincidence, between the two of them, they capture all the essential elements of U.S. culture...

hehe...oh. :p Completely missed that.

Ahem:

It's a limited slip differential which distributes power equally to both the right and left tires. The '64 Skylark had a regular differential, which, anyone who's been stuck in the mud in Alabama knows, you step on the gas, one tire spins, the other tire does nothing.

Please say hello to Superman when you see him. And remind him that he still owes me three dollars.

Good Morning everyone!

9 inches of snow and a nice crust of ice. Schools are in session. :)

But today's commute revealed a regrettable truth. J needs more windshield washer fluid! Eeep!

I hope everyone has a zippy day.

Beautiful pic Damien. :)

@Brenda - so....erm...you probably don't want me posting Funny Girl screenshots huh?

@Cael & Mo: The next words out of your mouth better be "guilty" or "not guilty." I don't want to hear commentary, argument, or opinion. If I hear anything other than "guilty" or "not guilty", you'll be in contempt. I don't even want to hear you clear your throat. Now, how do your clients plead? (one of my favorite movies!)

Why do you say this to me when you know I will kill you for it?

The housework is mounting up, and my avoidance of it has only given me a miniture house that I doubt I'll ever be able to build properly......now I've run out of things to distract myself with.

Someone save me?

Good morning people!

Still cold in Dallas, add in some fog, some leftover ice from yesterday, and you have another 1.5 hr commute today. Makes me just want to stay inworld and never, ever leave!

Saw a couple of wonderful performers last night, Clairede Dirval and Gina Stella. If you can catch them, either are well worth the effort!

Hope everyone's day is terrific!

Oh yeah. If you do, you'll feel ever so virtuous when you go back to SL.

Sometimes my husband says to me, "Yeah, go ahead. You earned it."

(Not as patronizing as it might sound, btw.)

Apparently the temperature here dipped down to 6*C (44*F) last night (brrr). Currently about 10*C (50*F) and warming as the sun rises from the horizon.
