    The stadium went eerily quiet after a 2nd OT LOSS......can't blame Tony Romo on this one.

      Keep ot simple with chorizo, eggs & tortillas. You need nothing else. Maybe cheese. But nothing else.

    Good morning! I finally got the major part of the new project done enough so I could stick my head in and say hi.

    Alee, your comment on inventory brings back memories of my first full time job, working for a chain of lumber yards/home centers (before they were all big boxes). They flew a few of us from CT to PA on a plane that held about 5 people including the pilot. It was my first time flying and it was in a thunderstorm! I'm surprised I ever got on a plane again.

    Good memories, although at the time the counting and monitoring the counters was not fun! Good luck.

    Good morning all, and happy Orange Friday. The entire city is decked out in blue and orange. I think there is some sort of athletic thing going on this weekend.

    How is everyone doing today?

          Great Number. I assume this is to support the 49ers.
