    Greetings IndieTalkers! Yes, it has been a while. Lots of news none of it good. First... I was insulted, infuriated, humiliated and outraged that anyone would think that I needed help. I am humbled, honored and privileged to have such caring, warm friends out there. Truly, I am touched to...

    WOW!!!!! That's really weird!

    I just stepped outside to get something from our (detached) garage, and IT WAS FRIGGIN' SNOWING! Well, kind of...... It was frozen precipitation that came down hard and fast like hail, but was the consistency of snow; so it was probably rain that froze on the way down. It only lasted ten...
