    I am not a fan of acronyms either; however, I think I can spell out every word for the capital letters above, except not being sure if my interpretation matches the author's. :rofl:
    Happy thanksgiving everyone!

    Off to a family gathering today. It will be a blast. Younger ones are filtering into the gatherings now, realizing that some of us may not be here forever. SOP
    Yesterday, a TV news geek was asking people why they were flying during a holiday rush. Most said gas prices were too high. Stupid question deserves a stupid answer, I suppose.

    I will let you know how it turned out. The WSM is fired up and coming up to temp. Time to truss and inject the turkey. I will admit the dry brine will take some getting used to doing. This is my first attempt.

    Greasing the palms of politicians will get you anything you desire. I need to ask some astronomy friends of mine how this was allowed to happen. The astronomy community is pretty upset.

    Happy Thanksgiving. Our dinner is getting smaller. My sister is not feeling well and will not be able to come to dinner. Everyone have a great day with family and friends.

    Kurt the dry brine sure does make the turkey look different, but it still feels the same.

    Web resources suggest they'll have maybe a 5yr lifespan before de-orbiting. Reminds me, I have pretty good viewing here in farm country. I need to load up an app that will tell me if and when various satellites are viewable. I also need to get the telescope out of it's boxes...
    A happy and healthy Thanksgiving to all. :burnrubber:

    You're good... That's damn close and you definitely got the attitude correct.

    What the f** are you thinking, just spell it out.

    My new acronym for using with people that are terminal acronym abusers.

    Happy Thanksgiving sixtys/wannabes/briners. We're hosting my DIL and her family so there's a turkey heading into the oven now. We don't get too fancy but we do use the convection function. We were supposed to have another guest but she's down with what is probably RSV and is not fit company. We'll take a plate down to her.

    Reading the gripes about work ethic and youth gave me the first thing I'm thankful for, namely that the great majority of young people I've interacted with have been hard working and honest dealing people. In my professional life as internet geek I naturally worked with quite a few folks in their twenties and by and large they took pride in their work, showed up on time, and were happy to lend a hand or help an old geek learn the occasional new trick.

    I'm thankful too for the camaraderie I find in this forum. It's a special place, this Tacoma World, with special people. So thank you all, and may your day be filled with blessings.

    Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!!

    One of my favorite acronyms is an old military one. BOHICA (pronounced Bo Heeka) = Bend over. Here it comes again.
