Veit Bach-a baker who found his greatest pleasure in a little cittern which he took with him even into the mill and played while the grinding was going on. In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

Hey, if you were cooped up in a little office all day, without even a window, you certainly wouldn't be saying ???  :)  And, of course in our PC environment, we can't smoke our little cigar indoors either, no matter how high quality it is... ;)

Best to cut back on the dried fruits and lentils.

;)

I had something similar on the tip of my tongue...chickened out, though...

Really bad here in the woods, trees down everywhere. Yesterday was horrendous. On my afternoon break I like to go out and stand under the oaks, but I noted 2 huge branches laying on the ground and ,,, chickened out, actually. ::)  Better now though, calm winds for the first time all week. :)

Good to hear things have settled down, Gurn. I know the trees appreciate it. :-\

We've had a bit of a let up here, too. Finally.

I was hoping someone would make a tasteful joke about that one.

Sounds like something I wish I could do on my break. But I'm sandwiched between a parking lot and an alley. Neither exactly call to me...

And I thought I was badly off! :o

Nice little grove of oaks, the shade is a blessing when it's 96°... :)

My little storefront is comprised of about a half-dozen panes of glass - so at least I can see out (think strip center). But with only a parking lot to gaze upon I'm not sure I'm coming out ahead! ;D

Wonder what my landlord would think of a grove of oaks idea to replace the parking lot...

I specifically set it up for you, so I hope there are no wasted opportunities.
