taking the top of the page, just on principle.

skunk alert...

@Rockhead,

I like the skunk line in cribbage - and when I can get Thomas behind it.

Didn't like the skunk line on my head so I fixed it. I look marvellous. Maybe.

@JPB,

those bastards took my 50's away for tomorrow.

gave me more snow instead...

now I gotta go dig my car out, and work on getting near the road.

not enough food to go another week.

I didn't take them seriously about the snow.

hell, they didn't take themselves seriously.

this is more moisture than we have had since summer...

@Rockhead,

I tried to create a silver streak with focused worrying. It doesn't work that way.

Sorry about the lyin', steenkin' weather people.

It's raining here. I was thinking about Bethie as I went out wearing a navy blue hat she sent me--with a 360 degree brim. Perfect for the rain and a person with a cane. With a hat, I have a hand free.

@Rockhead,

I used to work a wicked silver stripe - kinda Elvira-ish. Somewhere there is a great pic mrs. hamburgboy. I should track it down and see if the scanner still works.

This morning's hair wasn't so cool.

Now I have bright red bangs and side bits on my hair. Definitely more me than the beige do I had going on for a little while.

@Roberta,

I have an old stetson (kinda similar to ol' dys's) for that iff'n I need to stay dry.

never been an umbrella (or parasol for that matter) kinda fella...

mostly I just get wet if it rains and I gotta be out and aboot.

getting my boots laced up.

damned expensive steel toes need to be used for more than truck loading...

not doing my coveralls yet, I think Ima be plenty warm once I get to moving snow.

I kinda miss snowplow guy about now...

as much as people don't always love hats, they are very mmmmm handy Cool

You don't need to hold an umbrella over your head if you're wearing a hat.

@ehBeth,

I like hats.

especially interesting hats...

but this is a hoodie and wraparound sunglasses job.

(I hate chasing hats, especially in deep snow...)

@ehBeth,

I am wearing my leather biker pope beanie under the hood for warmth.

are doo rags hats?

@Rockhead,

hmmm

that's a tough question

if a hat is a head covering, and a doo rag is a head covering, is a doo rag a hat?

@Rockhead,

I think that you should have gotten a whole passel of thumbs up, Rocky, 'cause you're such a funny guy.

@ehBeth,

I think you've grasped the root of the issue.

apologies for the skunk smell that refuses to leave, but hey. everyone has their crosses to bear, eh...?

When you've got yourself in a hole, stop diggin'.

Maybe you're cute, Rocky, but you ain't all that bright. But maybe I ain't telling you something you don't already know - after all you named yourself Rockhead.
