I'm 54 and I don't think I've ever had 8 1/2 hours of straight, uninterrupted slumber.

Glad you're kiddo is feeling better.

How's your mom, Snap?
Doing better?

A buddy of mine, who is taking the train downtown, had to have everyone get off that train and onto another because it iced over and wouldn't work. Now this new train just had the lights cut out. Now I hear a train has stopped...probably his with his luck today.

Updated: 3 1/2hrs. and he is still on the train. It is packed as people are pushing to get on...meanwhile, it is getting too heavy to move in today's conditions. Each time it stops, it has to back up to get a running start.

At work, they have a large turbine that blows hot exhaust on the track clearing it of snow and ice.
I guess South Shore needs to set up it's game.

He,he,he... And worse bet he did not even get there right?
I recall once,the train was 90mins delayed getting into downtown. No weather issues that day just mechanical. The conductor told us "well at least we got you there."

Thousands Stranded for Hours as South Shore Has No Contingency Plans

How's your mom, Snap?

Yes, thanks. She's so glad to be home. We didn't know until a few days later that her potassium had dropped to life-threateningly low levels.

One of my students need to get results from a quick survey for a high school econ class.

It should take less than 90 seconds to complete. You do NOT have to leave an email or any personal info.

What is an "escape room"?

What is an "escape room"?

Basically you go to a building, sometimes even a restaurant. Typically in a small group, 4 to 6 people. You are told a scenario about a patient who escaped from a doctors office unseen, or a prisoner who got out of a cell, etc. The scenarios are pretty much endless. Then you are taken into the "escape room" which is filled with appropriate props and hidden clues. You task, as a group, is to solve the mystery of how the person escaped.

Wolff finally sent me an email saying my shipment label was printed. Mind you, I placed this order on Saturday the 7th and was anticipating shipping on Monday the 9th. So, Friday the 13th they finally are getting around to my order? Boy I hope there is a survey.
