Be careful feeding the wildlife with you non-DNA identifiable rocks...you might create a mutant beast!<br><br>Love the Minnesota sliding scale. When Lady A and I first got married we lived in an apartment. It was a Saturday in January, about 25 degrees, when a nock on the door stirs me from the fireplace. It was our new neighbors moving in from Stillwater, MN asking if we can move our car. They were all wearing shorts and flannels with hiking boots!<br><br>Blood is thicker than water, only if you're from Minnesota.<br><br>Cheers!<br>SIr Hook the Lute Fisherman of WarrickSir Hook of Warrick aka "David K Wells"http://www.blogger.com/profile/14036130304612683613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4489310405541465454.post-15919521275283986902010-01-12T06:54:25.740-08:002010-01-12T06:54:25.740-08:00my brother the eternal Floridan wears shorts all w...my brother the eternal Floridan wears shorts all winter no matter how far north he moves...though the mountain roads have corralled them for a few days...good thinking to clean out the freezer!<br><br>blood is thicker in KY too : )<br><br>Lady SuzLady Suzanne of Greenbriarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17715427827385897484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4489310405541465454.post-62868721619831247542010-01-12T07:37:02.225-08:002010-01-12T07:37:02.225-08:00Sir Lance,Your cabin fever is our gain. Keep writ...Sir Lance,<br><br>Your cabin fever is our gain. Keep writing. Oh, and when you get tired of writing, you can always use the time productively by:<br><br>10. Pretend you're a cereal killer and cut out Captin' Crunch, Lucky Charm, and other cereal characters out of magazines ads and paste them all over a secret closet.<br><br>9. Put unknown frozen mass into microwave and set it on 5 hours -- just to see what happens.<br><br>8. Clean out your clothes closet and rearrange your shorts by pastel colors.<br><br>7. Redecorate the "brother-in-law" room.<br><br>6. Watch the classic and beautiful movie Alive to get your mind off being stranded.<br><br>5. Read The Donner Party Chronicles: A Day-by-Day Account of a Doomed Wagon Train, 1846-47. Again, to get your mind off..<br><br>4. Have wife and daughter go out and shovel neighbors' drive-ways (you keep the cash, of course).<br><br>3. Watch Oprah re-runs and graph her weight loss/gain.<br><br>2. Mail order beer. Lots of beer. Preferably from Minnesota. They know how to deal with snow and ice and will probably deliver to your doorstep tomorrow.<br><br>For example, Gottlieb Gluek launched the Mississippi Brewing Company in Minneapolis in 1857. Shortly thereafter, the name was changed to Gluek Brewing Company. <br><br>And the number one way to combat cabin fever...<br><br>1. Surf the net and buy lots and lots of cool gifts for your brother-in-law.<br><br>Sir Bowie of GreenbriarSir Bowie of Greenbriar (a.k.a. David A.
