During winter I arise to gelid weather most every morning, it was
+12ºF here this morning, which compared to typical winter temperatures
here we are in a heat wave... we'll soon be in the minuses and I will
be thankful for my car's oil pan heater.

Yes, being a crossword puzzle addict I see "gelid" often.

For some reason that I don´t understand, Our email now comes with a "Word
of the Day". I don´t resent it and am seldom stumped. Today I was.
Without googling, how many of you know the word "gelid"? Be honest when
you raise your hand.
I don´t live in a gelid climate, so maybe that´s why I didn't know the
word.
Brrrr! It´s positively gelid out there!
Nope. Not once in my life have I heard that expression.

I looked it up:
 
What does gelid mean in English?
: extremely cold : icy gelid water a man of gelid reserve — New Yorker.
 
I like new words but don't like icy cold:))

I hate this cold shit. Yesterday was a day off, and I spent half of it sitting in
this stupid chair, eating too much, and just fucking around on the internet.
4-1/2 years to retirement, then we're outta here. At least it hasn't snowed,
other than a light dusting, which is bizarre for StL.

Having one of those installed is a good investment if one lives in a place with
"gelid" winters. You should also run top quality, low viscosity, full synthetic
motor oil.

The worst engine wear, by far, occurs when starting an engine that hasn't
been started for several days, especially if the engine oil is super cold.

I only listen to live bands. If they have less than 13 members, I ain't
interested. Of course, avant garde music is the only music worth listening
to.

What do you expect when the lawsuits were primarily composed of
"I heard from a friend of a friend that something fishy happened" and
they brought that drunk blonde to the Michigan House investigation?

Some people's taxes went up.
 
Unless you think federal tax policy should be "Make Leo's taxes go down".

No. Federal tax policy should be tied to bringing manufacturing back home and
putting people back to work. Dump the majority of myriad federal regulations
that drove business overseas in the first place. Maximize Leo´s taxes by
dumping two-thirds of the federal workforce along with their ridiculous
benefits and retirement payments. Remember, every government employee
contributes zero to the GNP and benefits greatly from it.

People with large families. People with high property taxes.

No amount of dumping those regulations will make labor as cheap as it is
overseas. It's 2021, Leo, not 1921. Those jobs aren't coming back.

There´s a whole lot of "may" in that 2017 report, and I´m not worried
about people who own property in a foreign country. They can afford it.

Dump the minimum wage, and strip regulations. The Country and World will
adjust. Old axioms from my youth were, if you don´t like this job, get
another one, and If you don´t like that one, educate yourself and try
again.
I see that it´s late for me and early for you. To be continued...

You fucking predator. You'd love to see folks in America working for
starvation wages.

It is late for you, late in your life, and the sooner you die, the better.

Division of labor is a good thing. Unfortunately, I got nobody that wants to
roll out pizza dough around here.

I feel the same way after Rice-A Roni (The San Francisco Treat)
discontinued their rice mixes right when I moved to The San
Francisco Bay Area from Pennsylvania in <ahem> 1983. All they had in
San Francisco were the Rice-A-Roni noodle shit and MJB was the
premier boxed rice mix. Not the same.
 
But Knoor/Unilever is HUGE. They're the top 2 processed food
purveyors in the world, along with Heinz/Kraft (followed by Nestle).
And if you talk shit about them here they will hunt you down and
grind you up into a boxed soup mix. Just sayin...
 
I bought a box of Lipton Beefy Onion Soup mix for my post roast
tomorrow (Jill made me do it). Heat wave coming in predicted to be
30F with possible snow so that's what I'm making.

Speaking of which, you're up kinda late. You're creature of habit.
And even though this is a Saturday/Sunday, what's the deal?

Canned tamales are nothing like real ones. The good news is that you
can make them yourself. The key is saving and sundrying corn husks.

WTF? I can buy corn husks at the grocery store.

What roadsides? I can't find anybody selling anything on the roadside, except
the guy who has a trailer load of pumpkins every October.

Let's analyze this a moment. I have a stalk of asparagus. I cut off the bottom and
save it in the refrigerator to make stock. I steam the rest and have it right away.
What's the difference between the area above the cut and below the cut?
As far as I can see: tenderness.

Folks might dislike *preachy* vegetarians.
 
Winter's best friend is vegetarian. You should read my book.
 
************
On the drive back, they detoured in Columbia, Missouri's big university town,
and stopped at a pizza parlor. "Let's get the Masterpiece," said Winter. Chloe
said she thought that sounded great. "I'm so relieved," said Winter, "because
you always worry when a new person comes into the family, that there's
going to be something really weird about them, and vegetarian is weird."
 
"Don't listen to her, Chloe," said Eric. "Her best friend is a vegetarian."
