I saw a commercial earlier for a home security service, where this scenario was presented:
Dispatcher: What is your emergency?
Caller: There is someone in my house!
I wondered if it would be considered inappropriate for the dispatcher to give this response: No shit, Sherlock--you are.

Just recharged my dead cell phone. Hope I didn't miss any calls from the president.

Very mild for the time of year.

Same here, donavan. The first few days of November saw temperatures near 70˚F where I live. That, combined with the end of Daylight Savings Time, made for some magnificent early morning bicycle rides.

I've just developed hiccups. Haven't had them for a very long time.

Jeez, Introvertigo, that scared more than the hiccups out of me! But thanks, it did the trick.

Glad you're feeling better Peggs. Those hiccups can become painful if they go on too long.
We had a horrible storm yesterday with wind and rain. We are sure we had a micro-burst (mini tornado) which uprooted trees all over our city and lots of branches down too. My neighbour at the corner had her beautiful blue spruce come down ... taking out a section of her brand new wrought iron fencing. It hit the hydro wires and was leaning precariously on them for several hours before it was removed. Yes, our hydro was out for 2 hours which wasn't that bad compared to some parts of town which were out for much longer.

Went swimming this morning and still have the smell and taste of chlorine in my nose and throat.

Does that mean that tomorrow you are abdicating in order to marry Wallis Simpson?

Spent an hour today trying to get a dud spotlight bulb out of its fitting in the kitchen. Missing most of the footy on TV. Sorted in the end. So it's this one again - m.youtube.com/watch?v=JIZ7AhqflYM#
