If you live east of the Mississippi, where dozens of records for cold temps were broken today, step outside for several minutes and ask yourself if the earth is REALLY about to spontaneously combust.

And everywhere from the Rockies west is experiencing an unusually warm winter

We took the boat out on the lake today

Mom called me last week from Memphis - it was 25 degrees at lunchtime there and 87 degrees in LA. She let me buy her a ticket that night and will be out here until Mother's Day.

Not that my wife is thrilled about it, but I put up her with her mom all the time . . .

[Professor Tiger]

What a good son you are.

[Johnette's Daddy]

What a good son you are.

Much cheaper to buy her a R/T ticket to come here than to buy 5 R/T tix for the Mrs., the kids/grand and myself. No hotel costs, no restaurant bill for 12 (with booze), no putting up with my other relatives there. Plus, I knockout 2 holidays (Easter and Mother's Day), so I'm off the hook for Thanksgiving and X-Mas if she doesn't come out here.

[Dr. Nostron]

Thats good thinking

Doc, I was making a very rare drive down I-75 last week and, in your honor, stopped at the Tifton Shoney's. Even took a picture out front. I'll post it here once I figure out how. Stay tuned.

Newly leaked cables show Netanyahu's claims about Iran building a nuclear bomb are disputed by the Mossad itself

One thing that hasn't changed on I-75 between Macon and Valdosta - lots and lots of billboards advertising adult stores and message parlors. How did South GA become such a brazen red light district?

[Jungle Rat]

Because its South Georgia

[Professor Tiger]

I assumed South Georgia has MANY Southern Baptists that would have easily kept the kibosh on that sort of thing. Maybe it's like alcohol - something the Baptists detest in public but savor in private.

Are the orange barrels finally gone.

[Professor Tiger]

Yes. Little or no construction.

Unlike Tennessee, where the orange barrell should be on the state flag.

Doc, this avatar's for you.

I was in Macon two weeks ago for a church conference. I flew in to ATL and drove down. I was surprised by the weather (freezing), the food (awful) and the strip clubs (abundant).

[Dr. Nostron]

You should have let me know - I will definitely hook you up with some good eats next time you are in Macon or Atlanta.

[Dr. Nostron]

Prof - I cant see your avatar?

I would think anywhere you've visited, there would be no eats left at all, good or otherwise...
