Winstonm Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Ken, Sounds like sled dog appreciation day would be more appropriate for Md today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Starbucks was closed. The club probably ran the bridge game though. I shoveled out the driveway around noon. I'll do it again and then it's time to sit back and relax.

The vision of a man shoveling snow from his driveway always reminds me of the scene near the end of Fargo where the guy says, So the wife says I should phone it in, so I phoned it in. End of story. You don't have a giant blue ox where you live, do you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggwhiz Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I shot one on my only hunting expedition and have been in therapy ever since. Has the Official BBO Hijacked Thread Thread been hijacked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My partner wimped out at the last minute, I played with someone else with a similar problem. All was good until I tried to go home, and discovered that my car had been towed because Cambridge had a parking ban for the snow emergency. Paid $130 to get my car out of ransom, and have to pay a $30 ticket. Well, at least we got an above-average score. So much for all my fond memories of Squirrel Appreciation Day. From now on I'll always associate it with a $160 game of bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
