Probably on the way. Only 40 here right now after 64 and 60 the last 2 days. But we need the sun, the cold front that moved through before Xmas knocked down a bunch of leaves from a bush next to my house, and they're currently scattered all over my back patio. I need them to be dried out a bit so I can suck them up in the leaf blower and get them out of there. Tired of dragging them into the house every time I come in, since they're all so wet.

Heck, living out in the country, you should have a good stockpile of coffee (just like cigars and liquor).  Even with milk now.  I always keep a couple of cartons of Parmalat.  Keeps for like 6 months without refrigeration.  Convenient to have when you come home from a trip and don't feel like running out for milk.

[move]Today is Thursday, Jan. 5, the fifth day of 2023.
[/move]
There are 360 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On Jan. 5, 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower proposed assistance to countries to help them resist Communist aggression in what became known as the Eisenhower Doctrine.

On this date:

In 1896, an Austrian newspaper, Wiener Presse, reported the discovery by German physicist Wilhelm Roentgen (RENT’-gun) of a type of radiation that came to be known as X-rays.

In 1914, auto industrialist Henry Ford announced he was going to pay workers $5 for an 8-hour day, as opposed to $2.34 for a 9-hour day. (Employees still worked six days a week; the 5-day work week was instituted in 1926.)

In 1925, Democrat Nellie Tayloe Ross of Wyoming took office as America’s first female governor, succeeding her late husband, William, following a special election.

In 1933, construction began on the Golden Gate Bridge. (Work was completed four years later.)

In 1943, educator and scientist George Washington Carver, who was born into slavery, died in Tuskegee, Alabama, at about age 80.

In 1949, in his State of the Union address, President Harry S. Truman labeled his administration the Fair Deal.

In 1953, Samuel Beckett’s two-act tragicomedy “Waiting for Godot,” considered a classic of the Theater of the Absurd, premiered in Paris.

In 1972, President Richard Nixon announced that he had ordered development of the space shuttle.

In 1994, Thomas P. “Tip” O’Neill, former speaker of the House of Representatives, died in Boston at age 81.

In 1998, Sonny Bono, the 1960s pop star-turned-politician, was killed when he struck a tree while skiing at the Heavenly Ski Resort on the Nevada-California state line; he was 62.

In 2004, foreigners arriving at U.S. airports were photographed and had their fingerprints scanned in the start of a government effort to keep terrorists out of the country.

In 2011, John Boehner (BAY’-nur) was elected speaker as Republicans regained control of the House of Representatives on the first day of the new Congress.

Ten years ago: President Barack Obama hailed a last-minute deal with Congress that pulled the country back from the “fiscal cliff,” but warned in his Saturday radio and Internet address that he would not compromise over his insistence that lawmakers lift the federal debt ceiling.

Five years ago: Former Fox News Channel anchor and 1989 Miss America Gretchen Carlson was named chairwoman of the Miss America Organization’s board of directors, with three other past pageant winners joining her on the board. In the first Rose Bowl to go into overtime, Georgia advanced to college football’s national championship game with a 54-48 win over Oklahoma. Alabama advanced by beating top-ranked Clemson, 24-6, in the Sugar Bowl. Peter Martins, the longtime leader of the New York City Ballet, announced his retirement in the midst of an investigation into accusations of sexual misconduct. California launched legal sales of recreational marijuana, with customers linking up early for ribbon cuttings and promotions.

One year ago: Australia denied entry to tennis star Novak Djokovic, who was seeking to play for a 10th Australian Open title later in the month; authorities canceled his visa because he failed to meet the requirements for an exemption to COVID-19 vaccination rules. (Djokovic, a vocal skeptic of vaccines, would be confined to an immigration detention hotel as he began a court fight that eventually proved unsuccessful.) After being held out of the team’s first 35 games because he refused to get vaccinated, Kyrie Irving scored 22 points for the Brooklyn Nets in his first game of the season as the team beat the Indiana Pacers 129-121 on the road; he was still unable to play in New York because of his vaccination status. The Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles, scheduled for Jan. 31st, was postponed due to what organizers called “too many risks” from the omicron variant of the coronavirus. (It would be rescheduled for early April in Las Vegas.)

Morning, muchachos. Power's out due to the storm. I just dodged downed powerlines to fetch coffee, milk and donuts. Life in the country.
Heck, living out in the country, you should have a good stockpile of coffee (just like cigars and liquor).  Even with milk now.  I always keep a couple of cartons of Parmalat.  Keeps for like 6 months without refrigeration.  Convenient to have when you come home from a trip and don't feel like running out for milk.
No generator?  Another wilderness necessity.

I have no shortage of coffee beans, just a pain in the ass to grind them by hand and boil the water over an open fire in 40+ mph winds.
Or at least have a portable propane stove handy if your stove is electric.
He must have one of those for camping trips.
I have a backpacking stove. And we have a travel trailer. But the power usually isn't out long enough to justify the effort to utilize those things. We do it, for sure, when we have heavy ice or snow storms, because then the power can be out for days.

ETA for power is noon today.

Been watching The Peripheral on Amazon +.  Very good series.
Agreed, quite enjoyed it.

Also started Kaleidoscope last night, on Netflix. Interesting setup, as it is a heist story, and each episode represents a different spot in the timeline, but other than the first and last episodes, the rest of the episodes play in a different order for everyone.

That's a long story.
Post it in small pieces.  We'll be on page 10 in no time!   ;D
For years, back in the days when financial expenditures needed consensus buy-in from the warden, she vetoed the generator and the necessary work needed to plug it into the house. It was an "adventure," and moral lessons for the boys, to have to camp out in the family room with the gas fireplace, read books, and play board games while the power was out. It was a break from the online world. Then we got the travel trailer, and a friend gave me a little generator for it, and that became the lifeboat if needed. A few years ago, my former boss gave me a bigger generator, that had never been used, so the next power outage we fired it up. It ran for about ten minutes, then quit. Several attempts to get it to run have been unsuccessful. So I've been planning to give it away and buy a solid generator, but still need to have an electrician come install the necessary port, and that's been lower on the priority list than other home improvements that are in process.

And again, it's just not such a huge deal to ride out the average power outage, so I haven't been terribly motivated. But it's still in the plans.

Damar Hamlin’s agent Ron Butler told CNN the injured Buffalo Bills player is awake and has been holding hands with family in the hospital.

The Buffalo Bills earlier said that Hamlin has "shown remarkable improvement over the past 24 hours" and "has demonstrated that he appears to be neurologically intact."

Although "neurologically intact" has a pretty cold ring to it.

Better than "neurologically detached", I suppose.
