It's Tuesday again! In between insults we'll occasionally discuss cigars. Join in and perhaps learn something along the way. Warning: don't proceed if you have thin skin but don't be afraid to post either... And welcome aboard!

Morning Slackers

Looks like TS Colin is moving out over the Atlantic near the GA/SC line but will continue to bring aome rain to SC and heavy rain NC.
Forward speed is 33 mph so it will be well into the Atlantic soon unless the track changes.
-
Looks like the Sister is out of service this morning and the other two might as well be.
-
Time for me to go to work while the slackers sleep.
Sheesh!

Good morning SoloDave and Rick

Today is Tuesday, June 7, the 159th day of 2016. There are 207 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On June 7, 1776, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia offered a resolution to the Continental Congress stating "That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States."
On this date:
In 1654, King Louis XIV, age 15, was crowned in Rheims, 11 years after the start of his reign.
In 1769, frontiersman Daniel Boone first began to explore present-day Kentucky.
In 1892, Homer Plessy, a "Creole of color," was fined for refusing to leave a whites-only car of the East Louisiana Railroad. (Ruling on his case, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld "separate but equal" racial segregation, a concept it renounced in 1954.)
In 1929, the sovereign state of Vatican City came into existence as copies of the Lateran Treaty were exchanged in Rome.
In 1939, King George VI and his wife, Queen Elizabeth, arrived at Niagara Falls, New York, from Canada on the first visit to the United States by a reigning British monarch.
In 1942, the World War II Battle of Midway ended in a decisive victory for American forces over the Imperial Japanese.
In 1954, British mathematician, computer pioneer and code breaker Alan Turing died at age 41, an apparent suicide. (Turing, convicted in 1952 of "gross indecency" for a homosexual relationship, was pardoned in 2013.)
In 1958, singer-songwriter Prince was born Prince Rogers Nelson in Minneapolis.
In 1965, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Griswold v. Connecticut, recognized a constitutional right to privacy as it struck down, 7-2, a Connecticut law used to prosecute a Planned Parenthood clinic in New Haven for providing contraceptives to married couples.
In 1972, the musical "Grease" opened on Broadway, having already been performed in lower Manhattan.
In 1981, Israeli military planes destroyed a nuclear power plant in Iraq, a facility the Israelis charged could have been used to make nuclear weapons.
In 1998, in a crime that shocked the nation, James Byrd Jr., a 49-year-old black man, was hooked by a chain to a pickup truck and dragged to his death in Jasper, Texas. (Two white men were later sentenced to death; one of them, Lawrence Russell Brewer, was executed in 2011. A third defendant received life with the possibility of parole.)
Ten years ago: Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (AH'-boo MOO'-sahb ahl-zahr-KOW'-ee), the founder of al-Qaida in Iraq, was killed by a U.S. airstrike on his safe house. The U.S. Senate rejected a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.
Five years ago: Moammar Gadhafi stood defiant in the face of the heaviest and most punishing NATO airstrikes to date, declaring in an audio address carried on Libyan state television, "We will not kneel!" Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, the al-Qaida mastermind behind the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, was killed at a security checkpoint in Mogadishu by Somali forces. NBC retained its hold on U.S. Olympic television rights in a four-games deal through 2020 worth nearly $4.4 billion, defeating rival bids from ESPN and Fox.
One year ago: President Barack Obama opened a visit to Germany for a G-7 summit, where he praised the leadership of Chancellor Angela Merkel. Turkish voters rebuked President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ambitions to expand his powers, stripping his party of its simple majority in parliament. Stan Wawrinka beat Novak Djokovic 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 to win the men's French Open title. "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" won best play at the Tony Awards; "Fun Home" won best musical. Actor Christopher Lee, 93, died in London.

I have not been having that sort of pain level and it really has not been bad at all while sleeping so that one sort of slipped up on me. Will be more proactive tonight though.

Even though my pills are not opiate based and pretty safe I don't like taking pain medications beyond ibuprofen, etc, saw the super pain killers destroy my dad's mind for his last few months of life along with seeing them destroying a lot of friends lives forever.

Guess Fajita Tuesdays and Taquito Tuesdays are gone again to be replaced by grazing on greens.

Bean News Report:
Reports: Johnny Manziel sued for 'extensive damage' to rental home in Los Angeles
In this week's installment of Johnny Manziel's Life On No One's Roster, we'll take a look at the most recent accusation and ding against the former Texas A&M star's reputation. According to reports, the ex Cleveland Browns quarterback is being sued for "extensive damage" to a home he rented in Los Angeles.
TMZ and ESPN reported that the property owners are seeking more then $40,000 in damages after Manziel rented the home in April. Lawyers say Manziel had agreed to pay a $10,000 fine if more than 15 people were at the home at the same time.
The owners looked at surveillance footage and claim Manziel hosted large parties where narcotics were left behind. The $40,000 sought covers the $10,000 fine as well as damages to rugs, bathroom doors, couches, statues, broken glass tables, and more.

Oh dear God phuck me. Major earthquake simulation drill for the next four days. Drop everything and pretend a major disaster has occurred. I'm printing out recovery plans like a damned secretary.
In the event of a major earthquake, or other disaster.....stay home, open the whiskey and light the cigars!
Drop, cover and hold drill to start it all off. I'm under my desk.(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160607/8adf38d7667540c22eec74712092e8a4.jpg)

Duh...isn't it obvious? My smartphone.

Almost time for some lunch. Greens I guess it will be or maybe a subway.

Only 9:18 am and I've been run all over the building, under my desk, and standing around in a parking lot for the past half hour. No warning on this one, so no opportunity to sneak out and grab a bench to watch.

breakfast sandwich at your Dunkin Donuts, yet? we got print and radio media so far.
they will not call it Taylor ham though.

I've seen that. Believe it's only a regional offering. If it's anything like their other sandwiches, no thanks.

Holy crap did I ever have some pain last night, woke me up and I thought somebody was stabbing me in the back with a hot ice pick! Took the magic pills about 30 minutes to help it.
. It happened to me on a Friday while I was leaning down taking clothes out of a dryer. I held off going to MD until Monday. All weekend Only had one position with pillow under my back, that I could fall asleep without pain. On Monday, Visited MD Who sent me immediately to ER where I was treated for a pulmonary embolism (blood clot in lung) which could have killed me or caused a stroke. I hope you have seen an MD, TR.

What TexDave is talking about is a bit of a shingles flare up that is causing his pain.

No, we evacuated for half an hour, then we had to come back in and pretend there had been a magnitude 9 earthquake. I tried to use the excuse that in that case I'd be headed for home, but they weren't having any. So everyone had to check all the systems to make sure they were online, then I had to write a fugazi report that I had taken all the systems offline until we received a report from the state IT office that the infrastructure was back online. We haven't gotten that report yet, further proof that group is totally fuc't. So all our systems are still pretending to be offline and I have to report every 20 minutes that we're still pretending.
This is a surreal day. Can I go home now?

Beat you to it. Got a couple more Sam Cold Snaps to finish to move on to summer offerings. Room 101 Payback Connie to accompany. Good but not enamored, not a RG of choice.

It was really a kind thing for the Cocks to step up to the plate and host the Super Regional in SC for Clemson after they turned into a no show.

Gonna get nasty!
Former Baylor student Dolores Lozano told reporter Joe Schad on Tuesday that former Baylor head coach Art Briles knew she was assaulted by one of his players and that she exchanged text messages with current Baylor assistant Jeff Lebby about the assaults.
Lozano told Schad that former Baylor running back Devin Chafin assaulted her three times in 2014, and although coaches knew about the incidents, the player was never punished.
