Good morning everyone. I'm running very late today, so see you later. Have a lovely Wednesday.
Good morning (barely) Satorians. <sniff, sniff> They're all gone now? Happy, Fremont, OP, etc.? I really do miss all of their postings. They are what made Satroi unique.
Good afternoon to all my UK friends. I'm running late today. Why? I don't know. I just can't seem to get started!! :)Nonetheless, I hope you all are having a Wednesday.

Good morning Crapsters. ::)Today the sun is shining brightly into my eyes with almost no clouds in sight. :-/However, it is only 34ºF. <sigh> I guess you can't have everything. :)Cheering up - it's TGIF!! Have a great weekend.
Good morning Satorians. Oh, what a beautiful morning Oh, what a beautiful day. :)At least for the time being. :-*TGIF eveeryone!!
Good morning to the UK. 8-)Kellly strikes again!!! Pod- -So did your snow stick? Ours hasn't yet. It's usually gone by mid-morning. Thank goodness. >:(The cold is bad enough. Right now it's 2ºC but feels like -3ºC

Good morning everyone. :)Well, two books done. Now I'm on #3 - Laurie R. King, The God of the HIve - a mystery novel featuring Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes. Any of you who are mystery lovers and haven't discovered this update of Sherlock Holmes are missing a treat. This is the 9th in the series and I've read six of them. sus- -So far I've read two mysteries. #! was Margaret Maron, Rituals of the Season - 13th or 14th Judge Deborah Knott mystery (including her wedding to a deputy sheriff). #2 was a new author to me - Ariana Franklin, The Serpent's Tale. It's set in the reign of Henry II in the 12th century and is based on the mystery surrounding the death of Henry's mistress Rowamund. The protagonist is Adelia Aguilar, Mistress of the Art of Death. I couldn't put it down and finished it in one day, doing nothing else but reading. I didn't even take time for meals, just snacked. >:(The weather has deteriorated considerably into cold, wet rain. Bone-chilling cold, I might add. I am NOT a happy camper. BTW Happy Hanukkah! Began last night.
Good afternoon to the UK. Kelly & Pod - You're both in fine form today!!

] Just a quick hello before getting back to my book. It's still gloomy with cloudy skies. It's seems I haven't seen the sun in ages. We keep getting a light dusting of snow that doesn't even cover the ground completely. < sigh>. Is there anything about the year ending in a whimper? 8-)How about those Syracuse Orange.? #1 in the nation in basketball. They started the Big East season last night with a decisive win over Seton Hall. GO ORANGE!!!!!!! #party2# #party2# #party2# #party2# #party2# #party2# #party2# #party2#

Good morning IIF & Wingnut, Kelly, who, FS, sus and anyone else stopping by. Last day of 2011. It doesn't seem possible - the year has gone sooooo fast! All in all it was a fairly decent year here. Unfortuantely, not so everywhere. Hopefully, things will be better as far as natural disasters are concerned in the coming year. Well, I've finished my books. The last, J.D. Robb's Big Jake was a joint venture with Nora Roberts who wrote the first book, Hot Rocks, and Big Jack is the 2nd and concluding book. I enjoyed Big Jake but I don't intend to read Hot Rocks. So after the first of the year, I'll see about another order. For a good part of this year I had lost my ability to concentrate on a book. I'm glad that I have recovered it and thus my enjoyment in reading again. Maybe I'll bring Dragonriders of Pern collection up to date, although I'm not as fond of Anne McCaffrey's son's writing. He doesn't have her deft touch at leavening the story with humor.
Have a fun last day of 2011.

Happy New Year IIF & Wingnut, Kelly, who, sus and anyone else dropping by. :)Welcome Kat. It's always good to see a new poster. ???What is going on with the weather? Right now I can see some blue sky and sun with a forecast high of 50F!! However, it's supposed to change overnight to a more likely winter scenario - even blizzardly-like (wind gusts up to 40 mph with snow). :)But it's a new year and a new chance to get things right. >:(You hear me Congress.
Happy New Year Satorians. sus- -It sounds like you had an enjoyable New Year's Eve. As for men, I took a nap in the evening, got up in time to watch the ball drop in Times Square and then went back to bed.
Giants beat the Cowpokes 31-14, winning the NFC East. That means they will host the Atlanta Falcons next week in the first round of the playoffs. If they win that, they get Green Bay on the possible frozen tundra of Green Bay, Wis. Of course that wouldn't bother the Giants as much as some other teams since they play outside here in the northeast.

Good afternoon Crapsters. We missed 99% of the snow forecasted for the Northeast. We only got enough to cover the ground - 1" max. Plenty of wind with no substance. Sounds like our political system. As you can see, I'm running late today - so bye bye!!
Good afternoon Satorians. sus- -How good anyone who claims to love movies disdain b/w. Some of the gretest movies of all-time are in b/w. Humphrey Bogart in The Maltese Falcon, Gary Cooper in High Noon, John Wayne in Stagecoach, Cary Grant in My Girl Friday, Clark Gable & Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night, etc. Color or b/w is relatively unimportant to the content of the movie/the acting and storyline. #mouse# As you can see, I'm running late today - so have a good day.

Good morning everyone. It's another gloom and doom day here in the middle of New York state, threatening snow but probably won't. The only reason we still have some snow on the ground is because the temp's have been in single digits. But it's warming to the 30's so that will probably disappear. The farmers and grape growers aren't happy with our winter so far. Well, it's time to get some coffee and breakfast. :-*Well, I hope YOU have a good day.
Good morning Satorians. sus- -I wasn't at all surprised when I read that Spiderman received bad reviews. Broadway plays shouldn't try to be action movies. The magic of the stage is to let the audience imagine things, like a good book. It will be interesting to see what aspects of Houdini's life are emphasized - his illusions or his interest in debunking spiritualism, for instance. #disappointed-1021# Today looks to be another gloomy one with snow forecasted. I'll believe that when I see it. They keep forecasting snow (we were supposed to get lake effect last night) - nothing happens. The ski resorts and skiers/ snowboarders are almost non-consolable. :-*Well, I hope you have a good day.

Good morning my friends. Mystery Persons started up last night and I was pleased with the response. Now if we could only get the word to Warsaw (now Mac123), who was always one of my most faithful players before. :-/I've been requested by some UK posters to make the time for the game earlier so they could participate. How would 5 p.m. do for us? That would make it 10 p.m. for them. It looks like this winter is going to be one of overnight flurries. I got up this a.m. and saw the ground was lightly covered once more. Where or where is lake effect when you need it? Love 'em. I'll have to remember to use them next week. Thanks. :)Have a great Sunday everyone. #viannen_114#Happy birthday Elvis!! < sigh> :)Have a great Sunday everyone. Good morning my UK friends.

Even if she didn't want to post on the boards any longer, she could have let us have e-mail to keep in touch. :)Have a great Sunday everyone. [/color][/font]
