In Ohio [Dan Collins]

Personal matters have brought me to Ohio for the day.  Got a couple hours of shuteye at a rest stop, but it was freaking cold, I tell you.  Probably be home some time tomorrow.

    Hey Dan – hope it’s nothing too serious. If you’ll be passing through Pittsburgh on your way home, let me know!

  2. Timstigator says:

    Dan, there was a frost warning overnight. Sounds like you enjoyed it. If you’re passing through Cincinnati, let me know, and I’ll build a fire.

  3. alppuccino says:

    Where in Ohio? (roughly, that is. Wouldn’t want you to give away the location of the Collins bunker)

  4. Dan Collins says:

    Thanks, Columbus. I’m just going to take care of an obligation and head on home, though, chances are.

  5. alppuccino says:

    Those loan sharks are a vengeful bunch.

  6. serr8d says:

    Sheesh. Watch your shanks.

  7. Lyndsey says:

    Yep, it was chilly this morning. As a newbie here, I’m told that if I just wait 15 minutes the weather will change. So it should be 75* by this afternoon, right?

  8. serr8d says:

    It’s a bit chilly even here. But in Phoenix, there may be a new record set; 13 straight days of 100 degrees plus in May. The record is 12 straight days.

    Go west, young man.

  9. serr8d says:

    (OT, but if anyone is interested, I put up a Baracky – Notre Dame post in the Pub.)

  10. The Monster says:

    Goddamn Global Warming!

  11. Timstigator says:

    With Al and Dan, I think we have Ohio covered from head to toe.

  12. SarahW says:

    Drive safely, Dan. Or drive fast and take chances. Whatever gets you back to us.

  13. Joe says:

    Have a safe trip. Carin mentioned it was 31 degrees in Detroit. It is supposed to be tomato weather now.

  14. SBP says:

    39 freakin’ degrees according to my thermometer when I got up.

    On May 15th.

  15. Techie says:

    Ohio? That’s the state that’s in the way whenever I try to drive back to the South or the East Coast.

    (grumble grumble)

  16. SBP says:

    And yeah, Phoenix sounds pretty good.

  17. Dana says:

    Well, east of you, in the Poconos, we have a fornicating frost warning for tonight.

  18. Carin says:

    It’s up to 44 now. Blue skies. Hopefully we’re done with frost warnings.

  19. SarahW says:

    MY tender basil plants tremble. I think they’re safe in old Virginny, though.

  20. Live Free or Die says:

    Dan, I hope it was not you who had such animosity towards our dear President Garfield

  21. SarahW says:

    Strangely, with Garfield missing, Hiram Ohio is much funnier now.

  22. JD says:

    I got frost on the 19 cubic yards of mulch I put down this weekend. Fuck Global Warming.

  23. Carin says:

    It’s, honestly, the perfect time for them to unveil their Cap and Trade scheme. Isn’t it due any day now?

  24. psycho... says:

    SarahW, you are a funny.

    Must quit internet.

  25. Here’s a cyber-wave as you pass through Atlanta, if you’re going back down that way.

  26. JD says:

    Are any of you going to be in Indy for The 500 ?

  27. beedub says:

    Timstigator..

    Hey, Homeboy…where in Cincy y’at?

  28. Jim in KC says:

    Are any of you going to be in Indy for The 500 ?

    The 500 is one of those uniquely American spectacles, much like Graceland, that I’ve always thought everyone should see. Alas, although I’ve made Graceland, I haven’t worked out the 500 thing yet. I’ve heard it’s a complete madhouse, though.

    One day I’ll get serious about getting to it.

  29. happyfeet says:

    please don’t quit

  30. JD says:

    Jim in KC – Compound JD is open to you should you ever choose to do so. The 500 is an experience.

    Where in the Poconos, Dana?

    We were a way west from you, above Lock Haven near Renovo over the weekend.

  32. Dan Collins says:

    Home again, home again, jiggety jig.

    Remind me not to do that again.

  33. Sdferr says:

    Don’t do that again Dan.

  34. Dan Collins says:

    Thanks. I’m unwinding with a beer or two to counteract the coffee.

  35. TexasBud says:

    Man O man. Great site. The Fighting Snoozers of Boring State University. Everybody is one hour short of graduation.

  36. JD says:

    TexasBud – Can I subscribe to your newsletter?

    There are plenty of other places you can torture yourself on the Internet, TB. Widen your horizons!
