Thanks Major 2, I went to bed early after taking a muscle relaxer due to inflaming my back replacing the water pump on my wife's car. Hope Y'all have a uneventful day.

50F and drizzle.   

A nice thing about having heart problems is I don't have to do work on cars, shovel snow or mow the grass. The bad thing is there is a lot of things I shouldn't do that I wish I could.

Yeah so I heard, dealing with an old non-heart related problem,  makes me tired, then I fell the other night, nothing broken just bruised good on the left side,  X-rays show no breaks.

Glad to hear from ya, quit fooling around, it's that cheap booze again, ain't it?
Glad nothing was broken, I know I don't bounce as good anymore either.
Temps dropped here today, just ran in the 40s, but sunny. Supposed to get a bit rainy here this weekend, which will make things interesting for Monday. We are right in the prime eclipse path and predicted to have 20,000 to 30,000 folks here on Monday which will be a bit overwhelming for our town of 7,000.

Hiya Slim and crew. Slim try to stay warm today, it's 52 here and sunny, supposed to hit 65. Gonna take the Missus out to lunch in a bit and run a couple errands. Our goal is to stay in the house, except for Church Sunday, this weekend because it is already getting nuts around here with folks coming in for the eclipse Monday. Our gun store is even closing, just so we don't have to deal with the "entitled whiners" who are already stating they will park wherever they feel like.

Had a 4.8 earthquake here this morning, 2nd one I've felt in about 33 years.I'm sure it will be on all the news stations. Every one is fine, felt like a heavy truck going over a bunch of potholes. Y'all have an uneventful day.

There were two earthquakes in Milwaukee in 1947. I remember one of them. I was seven years old and sitting on the porcelain throne at the time.
It scared the ***** *** ** **.

[Major 2]

In July 1957 I was 9 years old, and recall the Guerrero, Mexico City quake.
It was 7.9 magnitude, my folks, sister and I were in Mexico.
We had, spent the last 2 weeks in Chapala and stayed in Mexico City the night before.
That very day we were at Popocatépetl volcano (43 mi) southeast of Mexico City.
The night it happened we were in villa about 100 miles away, it hit about 3AM.
I was asleep and woke as my bed marched/danced around the room 
Where we were, there was the felt shocked, but no damage, Mexico City was devastated.

Sorta true, you may not have felt one, but you were in one the night it rained bad and we slept at Jerry's house.  The epicenter was about 40 miles west of us.  They had one one time during school and everyone but Jerry.  He was on a ladder hammer drilling.

We had one in KC about 10 years ago.  Go back to 69 or 70 we lived in western tennessee.  It is actually one of 2 earliest memories.   I was 3 or 4 and the quake on the new madrid shook my bed across the room.  It left an impression.
