Happy Leap Day!
 
On this day in history.

Happy Green Guy!
486 -- Pope Hilarius, calendar reformer, dies laughing.
Yup, that's what it says at http://www.eskimo.com/~recall/bleed/0229.htm
complete with a pic of the Green Fella himself!

1288 -- Scotland: Establishes this day as one when a woman can propose marriage to a man! If he refuses, he is required to pay a fine.

1952 -- US: Run For Your Life?!
New York City pedestrians are told when to walk & when not to as four signs are installed at 44th Street & Broadway in Times Square.

Each sign flashes "Walk" for 22 seconds,

then "Don't Walk" for ten seconds

before the "Don't Walk" turns red for 58 seconds more.

Inspires "Jay Walking."

Other than that, not much happened ;)

Bedtime.

My time clocks totally screwed up... I can't sleep at night and i'm too tired to work in the day|banghead|

I need a few beers rather than the coffee's i've been consuming... That should do it :D

Have a good one all, i'm going to try n sleep a while.

Good Morning
The results are in and not good. I will explain a little later.

Sorry to hear that Jim, was hoping for good news.

Cleo 2008-02-29 06:44 AM

Sorry to hear this Jim. :(

Up early due to my ex just leaving for work. We made up a few days ago with the help of friends. Looks like we will be getting back together.

Still dealing with this Cold. Last night it was at the coughing all night stage.

Just another day of work planned. I still haven't made it down to South Beach so maybe I'll finally make it down there tonight.

Starting the next day's "morning" thread before your current day has ended is a bannible offense (but then again, you are a Leafs fan, so I'll let it slide)

GOOD LEAP DAY PEOPLES |jackinthe

I'm going thru withdrawals |thumb 2nd time for me from this drug - Dr says the new drug should curb the effects of the withdrawal, but he doesn't know that I've been taking the new drug for 2 days & it does NOTHING!

Sleep Apnea Dr says that more tests need to be run to see why I'm not sleeping properly on a nightly basis. I should hear from her in a week or so |banghead|

Other than that, I've got a wake to go to as my neighbor passed away the other day (yes, the one fucking neighbor I actually associated with is now dead) and then tonight I get to watch Yell drink too much beers & yell at Canadian fans (but that will only happen if Montreal scores the 1st goal - it's odd how that works :D)

JustRobert 2008-02-29 10:40 AM

Good Mornin :)
Still working on a bunch of little stuff I wrote down during my vacation.

Very sorry to hear that Jim.

LeRoy 2008-02-29 10:41 AM

Sorry to hear about that Jim. My prayers are with you and your wife.

digifan 2008-02-29 11:49 AM

Oh Jim it's so sad but what if they will not be right?

RedCherry 2008-02-29 12:05 PM

Good morning all!

Jim, as I posted on the other thread, so sorry about your wife. She is in my prayers.

Cleo, I can so relate, I am finally past the coughing all night stage. Now i'm in the my head is going to explode from sinus pressure stage, and night fevers. But so far this morning, I feel pretty good.

It might have something to do with the 2 cups of espresso I've already had this morning, lol. I'm AWAKE.

Have a good one all, just work and rest for me planned today.

bDok 2008-02-29 12:30 PM

Morning all. Didn't end up driving to AZ yesterday as the guy that was going to ride with me bailed. So just decided to fly a little later today. Other than that just been working away on stuff. Can't wait to be in 80 degree weather drinking beers outside.

Hope you all have a good weekend.

also, sorry to hear jim.

|cheers|

sorry to hear you have bad news Jim...

Sorry to hear that Jim

balls_deep 2008-02-29 05:23 PM

Happy leap year, but I am sorry to hear your sad news jim.

docholly 2008-02-29 05:43 PM

Morning..Ok technically the afternoon..
I had some innocuous post to make regarding Homeland security shutting down our neighborhood last night because they found Ricin in a hotel room about 3 blocks from my house (behind the palms). They shut down everything within a 20 block radius and who knows what they are looking for.

but after reading Jim's post, it all seems pretty moot. We're sending tons of healing energy your way Jim to surround your house and at least give you the strength to go forward. (((big ass hugs to you and Victoria)))

papagmp 2008-02-29 07:04 PM

My morning is screwed up again - morning all.
