Nancy, My wife once nicked her forearm with a thumb nail and ended up with blood poisoning. I had to call her doctor to get an antibiotic because she was to embarrassed to call herself!!!

Morning Nancy.
So glad you're feeling better. I fell on my butt years ago and I'm still waiting for the swelling to go down. Ba dum dum.

Good Lord woman, I just split my tea and my monocle popped out.

I had to investigate...I can't believe I searced TRF for "anal".

I must admit I was sorely dissappointed!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi gang!! Hope everyone's day was good. Spent most of mine lying on my couch resting the ankle. Headed down to the club in the late afternoon to meet Al who was just finishing the first day of racing for a two day regatta. Had a couple of drinks, enjoyed the Pig Roast BBQ and then headed home. Al is whipped from about 6 hours in the sun on the water. A fellow racer took a great bunch of pics so Al will probably post some in a day or two. In the meantime....a few shots of my own I took this evening....

Al relaxing with a cold one after a full day of racing. (note the sunburned face!)



A couple of piggy pics!





Al and friend Jane.....another racer!

Yeah....Al and I have a lot in common...including our aversion to sunscreen.

Mornin to all I just spent two days working at a coin show and came away with 14 coins for my own humble collection. The show was a lot of fun and saw a lot of friends. Now it's time for a Starbucks and a long bicycle ride!!!

39c - how does that translate to F? We've had 104 or so every day for about two weeks!

I see Frans had to go and get all geek on us. My conversion goes like this. If I have to drink a beer in less that two minutes to keep it cold going down, then it must be 100F or 38.5C. From there I make my conversion.

Thank you, Frans and Joe. I asked my husband, too - and he said 39c would definitely require Tylenol.

Nancy, I have been collecting U.S. coins since 1964 and have specialized in early copper(1793-1857) for over 20 years!!!
