    25'F at my house on the Mass/NH border. It was 18'F earlier this morning. Final touches going on all over the house as Daughter/Son-in-Law and Grandson will be up from New Jersey, for a 4 or 5 day stay. Grandson is 4 so we''re all excited. We didn't get to have Christmas together last year.

    Every year my wood stove in the living room becomes a new kind of centerpiece as we put up the tree and celebrate Christmas. But the Absolute Steel in the downstairs is burning and not as effective, but we get some heat from it.

    Here's the current scene. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

    You all might not believe it, but I'm drinking coffee this afternoon. We got this fancy Keurig machine at work. Free coffee. I've been using it for free hot chocolate. Put a cup down, ours a button or 3 and there it is. This afternoon I tried a cappuccino.

    Nope.

    Glad I got a small one. Not my thing

    Quick question. Will a 25" stihl RS chain fit a 24" husqvarna bar??
    As I found the chain I wanted for a gift the question struck me, I've only bought the 20" RS chains.

    I don't think so. Husky uses different gauge of chain than Stihl, and most other brands. That's one reason I'm not a fan of husky saws. I like that chains for my buddy's 460 Magnum fit my dolkita 6421.

    Idk Horkn, I dig coffee all day long but NOPE on cappacino, latte, espresso or other ones I won't try. I recall being lost at coffee stands at airports asking for coffee and they gave me a blank look lol.

    Did a little job work today but mostly has the day off. Did some tinkering in the shop and took the hound and kids rabbit hunting.

    I'll keep trying different ones, but cappuccino isn't my jam. There's a crap ton of caffeine in coffee. Far more than my diet mtn dew in the am. Correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm not a coffee addict, er afficiniado, but doesn't cappuccino have a lot more caffeine than even regular coffee?

    I'm sorry, I don't know. I had an office move to a group "suite" in the mid 90's what was above a Starbucks (the first one in town back then) and I tried a couple different ones. They were either straight sugar with caffeine or similar, I gave up. Besides it cost a lot of $$ even back then.

    I might like that. A little caffeine added.

    I see that cappuccino and a lot of those special coffees have espresso in them.

    Be careful with espresso shots in drinks, WWW was a Mt. Dew drinker like you back in the day and could go non stop from Colo to Cali on that stuff, but espresso shots were too much for him. I got a couple funny emails from him from that "suite", he said he couldn't type from all the caffeine ! o_O:rofl: :lol: but for real.

    It actually isnt dirty at all, unless you go back into mixing.
    We do most of our work in the curing department. Largest of the overhead cranes.
