Mrs. BBD told me this morning - about 1000 - that I could come out from under the bed because Halloween was over. Under the bed is the safest place in the world if you need a feeling of security. I didn't see a single spook, vampire or mummy at all the whole time I was under there.
Sure it's not gout?Good morning Coffee Shop crew. Woke up with a very painful right big toe due to an ingrown toenail. Very tender and very painful. Guess I will have to call the foot doctor and go in to get my hoof trimmed. In the meanwhile I shall have a shot of Jack Daniels and see if that makes the pain go away. Most likely it will not but you can never pass up a good reason to have a shot of Jack Daniels!
No, it's not gout. It's clearly an ingrown toe nail.
Just too much fun..
All done with cleaning and doing laundry so now I'm relaxing with my blankie, listening to Coast to Coast and posting for awhile.

I used to listen to Coast to Coast when I was working late nights or pulling an all nighter. It is such an eclectic program--kept me company and entertained for hours.
Saw no snow in WV, just cold rain and not that much. Couldn't have been much of an inviting night for tricker treaters.
I just returned from Green Bank where I visited this guy...
Biggest fully steerable radio telescope in the world, almost 500' high. For scale that's a tour bus in front of it. Nice exposition center display and history in the main building. The observatory lies in the middle of the National Radio Quiet Zone, where electromagnetic radiation is strictly controlled. Didn't see cell phone signals for at least 20 miles on the way in. They keep it so quiet they have a technician in a van go into town if they detect something spurious like someone's microwave oven leaking. All their vehicles are diesel --even the lawnmowers-- because spark plugs would generate noise. It's kind of an electromagnetic wildlife preserve that way.

Did you get to climb on it?Saw no snow in WV, just cold rain and not that much. Couldn't have been much of an inviting night for tricker treaters.

Wow! That is pretty cool!

Even if they were to allow that you couldn't pay me any amount of money to climb up there.
Acrophobia, you know...
Plus here's what happened to its predecessor...
(simple metal stress after outliving its predicted lifespan, but hostile alien zapping sells)
Figures, Sunday is my only day off!
We had a light -- very light -- dusting of snow at dawn today here in northern south east West Virginia.
Will find out by evening what came down at home -- snow? Cat?
That cat is gonna be the death of you...We had a light -- very light -- dusting of snow at dawn today here in northern south east West Virginia.

We had two different cats each survive a 30 to 40 descent vertically out of pine trees. Neither ever climbed beyond eight feet after that.
