What is a frumpie?

Frumpies are clothes you frump around in - the clothes you wear to paint, change the oil, scrub the floor, etc :D

The Worcester area hit a new record yesterday - 86f - 26 degrees above normal. I refuse to put my air conditioners in yet though :D

Maine bugs...
Given a choice I'd walk naked through a field of Maine mosquitoes before entering a room with just one of the killer black flies.

Walking through a field with no shoes on is quite brave :D

As Maine residents know, a mosquito is a large, furry bird weighing approximately forty pounds, with an eight-foot wingspan and a huge hypodermic beak capable of sucking a fat moose into a little shriveled raisin in about eight seconds. In fact, the word "Mosquito" comes from the Latin word "fatmus", meaning "a fat moose", and "squitare", meaning "to suck into a little shriveled raisin".

No, really! The mosquitoes in Maine are vicious animals, and they are not to be trifled with. Another vicious animal in Maine which is not to be trifled with is the Toll Booth Attendant. I would never allow a Maine Toll Booth Attendant within fifty feet of my wallet, because a Maine Toll Booth Attendant can suck a fat wallet into a little shriveled raisin in about eight seconds!

I like Maine. Maine's state motto is: "Come Back After Your Emergency Transfusion!" No, seriously, Maine is a great state, and its motto is something about the benefits of tourism. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Summer-has-arrived-kind-of-22189651 Sun, 05 Apr 2009 22:54:37 EDT Re: Summer has arrived, kind of http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Summer-has-arrived-kind-of-22187970

I'm not saying it wasn't one. But this time of year and our location leaves allot of doubt.
