Morning all.
This is the counterpart of ?Wednesday Morning Tea and Crumpets.? If it is intellectual take it elsewhere and if is Small Talk let it flow.
Enjoy,
L.
P.S. I have something to admit. I must sadly say that I am drinking tea this morning over coffee. What is this world coming to?

You're going to J-Tree for Xmas break?
I hate you.
Unless you take lots and lots and lots of pictures and actually post some on this site.
Folks, Linda's been holding out on y'all -- she's a darn good photographer. You should see some of the black and white stuff she does. Geeee-orgeous.
Oh -- and mornin'!
Kate
who actually has a day off today

Not unless you've won the lottery and head out for a quickie sandstone fix for the day somewhere nice and scenic. (I'm assuming NC doesn't have sandstone -- I dunno the area at all)
And yes, Anne -- NO SHOPPING TODAY!!!!!
I never thought I'd be so excited to do laundry.

Good Morning All Y'all
Anybody interested in fixing the sump pump in my basement and getting the pnie branches out of my yard so I'll have the time to go to T-Wall?
BTW - I enrolled in an EMT-B starting in Jan.

Hey, a friend just emailed this to me.
If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months, and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
Anyone's coffee getting cold?

Morning Anne, Becca, Kate, Linda, Kevin and All,
Had to actually do some early morning work so coffee got put off. Now time to refill the tank.
Students are all out of here at noon today! Heading home tomorrow sometime in the afternoon for 16 long days off!
Raul and I are hitting E-Rock for a couple days next week. Going to spend time working gear placements and do some of the short trad routes. Weather is fantastic as long as Mother Nature hangs in there. It is in high 50's, clear sky with moderate winds.
Linda,
What's with the tea stuff??? Last time I had tea in the mornings was when I was stationed in Turkey! Never could get used to hot tea instead of coffee! When I saw the sign about "intellectual conversation" I justed headed on down here!

Go to England, Coach. You'll switch to tea in no time.
...because the coffee there is NASTY.

Kate,
I was stationed in London in 1990. Lived in West Ruislip! Loved everything about the place but still couldn't get used to tea in the mornings. At least they knew how to make a decent breakfast; only country in Europe that did. Got to have that coffee in the morning!

Anne, it is more of a sick joke but I wish it wasn't. I REALLY, REALLY would love to climb with y'all at T-Wall. Unfortunately I must be my own engineer and laborer to fix problems around my house (Got to protect the bank's investment in it).

Danny,
Know how that goes! Out of 16 days off I imagine that the wife will have enough little projects lined up to keep me busy about 19 days!! Actually the only one that I know about is to put the roof on the deck I built during an earlier visit home! Looks to be about 2-3 days work. Same thing every time I get back home, something has broken or worn out and I play "Tool Time" for the weekend! Curse of the homeowner!

Morning Crew
I'm with coach, lived in Hyde Park and Mayfair for a short spell and never could bet into 'having a spot of tea'.
I takes my coffee like I likes my women, a little older, strong and bitter.

Anne, I admit I have the same desire to belay Becca, but alas, I do have the curse of home ownership....
