No. How do you refrigerate recently? Is there any danger of unrefrigerated recently going off? How long does it take for refrigerated recently to thaw?

Recently is always fresh, even though its use-by-date is always yesterday. However, it has been known to transmogrify into pasta.

Nope; haven't seen a sine of it, doc.

Perhaps you aren't secant in the right places.

I had a friend who always spelled it refridgerator. It either comes from the (I assume) accepted short word fridge or cosecant find the dictionary.

>one of the worst ones I've heard since TEd last frequented this board.

I think the best I can do now is infrequent the board. I've been so busy since I've retired and moved I haven't even had time to get the matted hair off El Gordo. In fact I have to run soon since I have a catacomb.

All seriousness aside, I've missed this place, but I am being pulled in 17 different directions right now.

The house is in great shape considering its age, but thyere are some cosmetic things I need to fix. For example, the railing on the front porch is a total of almost 60 linear feet (as opposed to non-linear feet I guess.) And it has balusters an inch sqyare and about 3 inches apart. LOTS of them. LOTS and LOTS of them. And they have 100 years' accumulation of paint on them. Paint that has a surface like alligator skin. So I spend an hour or three every day scraping old paint off. And wearing a dustmask and worrying about lead.

And it takes almost two hours to mow the lawn. I finally clipped on a pedometer and found that I walk just about three miles every time I mow the lawn.

We finally sold the house in Denver (closing is Tuesday), so now I have th4e money to build my dream shop in the back yard, which means that I have to get together a building and site plan so I can get a building permit.

And it goes on and on. Swim lessons for the kids, Cub Scouts for Theo, etc.

And every time I look in here I see that I'm something like 6000 messages behind and I despair since I know I just don't have the time. I'm going to make an effort to spend a couple of hours a week here, but I'm being stretched fat. With my physique I certainly can't be stretched thin!

Hugs to all
