It's funny how in sync we are sometimes Hippie. I know what Flounders are and Begorrah ... no ... I mean Hoots Mon ... I used to see them floundering away from my paddling feet in the frigid waters of the North sea (same lattitude as Denmark) as a wee laddie. Where I live now there is a chance the flounder-like fish would have poisonous barbs on its back ready to paralyse me. So paddling is fraught here.
The idea of Flounders excited me for a moment ... but ... thought I 'd something more to say ...
Hope you're handing the winter there ok ... oh ... and the toxic train wrecks ...
Either the world is FUBAR or I'm finally old enough to think the percentage of stupid people is reaching the point of no return.
Or maybe I am just finding ways to justify day drinking this afternoon.

Those aren't necessarily mutually exclusive options in causation, you know..

I saw that once, but I think it involved about 800+ micrograms of some pretty clean paper.
Raiпbow Eυcalyptυs: The Most Beaυtifυl Tree iп the World
Wheп aп Aυstraliaп Ƅotaпist saw a raiпƄow eυcalyptυs tree for the first time, he thoυght someoпe had paiпted the Ƅark … Ƅυt he sooп discoʋered it was Motherfavdaily.com
Wheп a piece of Ƅark is peeled or falls off, the sectioп of trυпk υпderпeath is “bright greeп wheп first exposed, aпd theп tυrпs to red, oraпge aпd pυrple toпes aпd theп Ƅack to browп as the Ƅark matυres,” explaiпs Brett Sυmmerell, chief Ƅotaпist at Royal Botaпic Gardeп Sydпey.
“This process isп’t υпυsυal– the forest red gυm, spotted gυm aпd others do it too – it’s jυst that the color chaпges are way oυtside the пorm seeп for eυcalyptυs.”

My new Thermos brand, thermal/insulated, travel-type, stainless steel coffee cup has a spring closure on top with a hair trigger. It's either poorly made, or trying to tell me I've had enough caffeine.. More later on that, after thorough research.

winter? we should have snow on the ground...nope. we HAVE had some pretty good floods, roads closed, bodies being searched for in the North Fork etc. there is always some dimwit that thinks "aw, my truck can go through that, no sweat..." glad the train wrecks are north of here in Ohio. here, i live pretty much between a huge chemical plant and a federal explosives plant.
rather nothing went wrong, you know? a building i used to work in at the ammo plant caught fire, then exploded a while back. we had to run it by computer from another building a few hundred yards off behind blast walls. too dangerous to be near it while work was "in progress".

Finished whipping together the latest/current batch of dry rub for the pork back ribs.
Need to get the ribs processed, removing the internal membranes before sectioning into 2-3 bone rib pieces, then coating and leaving wrapped 2-3 sections to a pack in Saran Wrap in the fridge, stacked up in a baking pan (to prevent any leakage from messing up the refrigerator).
I'll leave them in the refrigerator until tomorrow around noon, a bit under 24 hours, then light the smoker and hold them at 225 to 235 f. for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours, then chow down, though putting some into the freezer, wrapped in Saran Wrap and foil, for the trip to the bush in just under 4 weeks.
But the Sun just popped out big and bright, after another bit of snow last night and this morning, through noon, and I hesitate to haul barrels of fuel oil when the snow's coming down, so it looks like Mother Nature and her sunshine are kicking me in the butt to get the barrels strapped down and ready to go to town.. whether I feel up to it or not.

Prepping to go out and strap down the heating oil barrels in the trailer. Sun's still out.
But I need to run the snowblower in the driveway a bit before we head out to town to get the heating oil.
Had one tequila and pomegranate with seltzer and lime/lemon juice beverage, but will only engage in a mild amount of the White Lotus #1, Space Cake #1 or hash before the remainder of chores. I've noted a strange correlation involving my smoking after a decent beverage, and engaging the snowblower work, wherein there seems to be a relationshp between my smoking and drinking, and my snowblower getting the munchies, at which point it eats more debris than normal.
I need to figure that out. Seems odd to me..
