gosh what a learning experience 

This has happened to many, sigh man.

If one survives it, it's indeed educative, sadder-but-wiser man...

Connecticut has some similar problems with driving businesses off. That there is a dying state. Perhaps a precursor to some sort of white collar rust belt.

Then-Gov. Rick Perry went to CT to tout Texas as a business-friendly place to relocate, smart move man.

We dunno who ended up coming, but it raised awareness and was good P.R., si man.

I went skiing this morning with my Norwegian skis instead of the Finnish ones. I think I like them better, but the Finnish might need some wax.

Waxed or waxless, the latter should help you reach the Finnish line sooner, ha ha Nola-B. ma'am.

Mine are this super cute plaid pattern

When we were younger, we enjoyed putting our pet chameleon on plaid cloth, thrilling outcome man.

And foto of super-cute plaid skates now, see ma'am.

Reading Steveklar's banking travails makes us gladder than ever to be in the POTS industry, blessing man.

Red carpet and VIP service on every bank visit, pleasant man.

(Most fun to pay unannounced visits to see the staff scramble to deploy the red carpet, amusing man.)

 

Each bank has offered us credit at negative interest rates, they pay us versus we pay them man.

However, the POTS industry is so cash-rich that we need no credit, OK with us man.

And no need to move from Nueva York to Nueva Hersey either, Texas business environment Many elsewhere worse man.

Prospective name for next thread, see man:

"Too Few Polish Commie-Babes Active in This Here Rant Thread," absolute winning suggestion man.

I have no interest on telling them how to run their business, or how I run my business.

In my head I hear Oprah saying "you get lung cancer. You get lung cancer. Everybody gets lung cancer."

Yeah CT is shot....

And we're waiting to see what this clown in NJ does before we pull the trigger. 

These idiots have no business telling businesses how to run their business...

 

Now to start on those I-130s. 

Right after I have my second cup a coffee. 

And read the news a bit. 

and do some banking. 

and a few other thangs.....

This evening the Dane and I snuck off to go ice skating. They built a new indoor rink a block away - free to use, of course. Besides a few sparse times, it is the first time I've really gotten out since I used to actually be decent at it.  We both had to get new skates as the free skates are only for kids. Mine are this super cute plaid pattern that I'm living for. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I gotta teach the kids how to skate, and, I haven't skated in like 30 years. 

 

I do plan to take them skiing this winter. But, I dunno how to ski.....

I used to be able to do jumps and spins, but when I went out last night I was holding on to the edges for a good 5+ minutes. It was like re-learning how to skate all over again. I think your daughters will take easily to it, especially the one who does dance.

 

I took the Troll out a few times just around town. Lessons for downhill are the way to go, especially with my kids. I haven't been downhill skiing since my accident and I don't think it is a particularly good idea that I do so again. I have been considering doing telemark because it is a little slower, but I'm not sure if that is worse or better on my knee. I can't remember what it felt like.

.There are skating rinks all over. So that's easy. 

Skiing, we gotta go to the property, there are hills and slopes, but the hill across the road slopes onto the the road...

The kid just found out she needs a shot and is hysterical...

[SAT 9,609]

Hmm I can send them down the hill, then ride them back up on the quad...

[SAT 9,609]

Like this...

 

 

Then when they're good, the real slopes are not far from there...

Sitting at the kids doctors, and, I'm starving!
