Happy Tuesday, everyone!

Hope everyone is having a great start to the December season! Just wanted to let everyone know that this month really is a time of festivities and fun. So don't let worldly problems or the evil of the world steal your joy this month! Remain joyful, happy, and do stuff that brings you joy this month! (back to the normal daily quotes tomorrow!)


Oooh good song!
 
Morning y'all!
Go for it!

Had that yesterday! We were supposed to cook pasta, looked at my wife, and she said Mexican food? Of course, I said yes, so we had that instead.
 
It’s going to be a slowwww day, the majority of the patient base is over 65 yo and about half commute from Ohio. Do you know who are going to have a very busy day? Police and tow truck drivers, I passed a dozen cars off the road and accidents on the way to work. I hope you have a great day up in tropical Michigan, don’t forget to put sunblock on if you’re heading to the beach, melanoma is no joke!
Ok, now I am thoroughly confused. Don't feel proud as it's not that tough to do. Anyways, you are in Ohio. Half of your patients commute from, um, Ohio or, at some point, did you post that your office is in Pennsylvania?

Hey, pal, if you're going to copy and paste lyrics from some site, please make sure we/I don't have to strain our eyes to see them. I looked and looked and looked some more. At first, I thought you were using the invisible font. Since I'm no quitter, though, I kept at it and got some magnifiers out. Alas, the next line of lyrics is, "Give up your vows."

I live in Ohio but now work in Pennsylvania. The office is 28 miles from my house.
 
Had a decent snow a couple of years ago that was decent and no black ice, drivable

@kingranch2003 will tell you
Absolutely right! Palm tress and snow should never coexist. I enjoyed it while it was here, and was glad when it was gone.

Something about that picture just seems wrong. It's like people in Australia celebrating Christmas in the summer.

I haven’t seen snow fall in Florida except once when it was a snow flake drizzle that lasted until it hit the ground . I think it lasted five minutes .

February 1973, we had 18 inches of snow here, stayed on the ground almost 2 weeks. I was 8 and loved it. Nothing like it here since

Did they shut the city down?

In 1973, I was 2. I don't have much memory of what happened back then...
