It's up to 3 degrees now.....another night of opening the cabinet doors under the sinks to help keep the pipes from freezing.

Are you also letting water drip from the faucets?

And of course keep a small drip of water running from the faucet.

LOL, yes you are.

We are going home Sunday evening, but we are taking a city tour, and I hate to have it rain on us.

Rain kind of makes it difficult to see much.

Mahogany Bay was a cute little tourist trap. In order to enter the area from the ship, and to return to it later, you had to go through the large Duty Free Store. Nothing seemed like a very good price, especially things like chocolate and rum cakes.

They usually are not the best prices. Often you see things you can't get elsewhere.

Nice clip.

My question for ASK BK DAY:

I purchased your Donny/Marie as a perk a few years ago, and some of the scenes said "Bank" instead of giving a time and place for taping....were these scenes that had already been taped and would be inserted into the show?

Yes, as in banked - already shot. They did this regularly.

They had a fun little beach lift (like a ski lift) that took you from the stores, over the trees, and then dropped you off on the beach.

That's interesting.

I bought a trinket or two, and then we returned to the ship. After lunch, we watched SKYSCRAPER on the TV. Yesterrday it was the movie in the theater, but we missed it. Also, last night, I watched most of CRAZY RICH ASIANS on TV. Now I am off to wander the ship, looking for fun, fun, fun!

We were very glad we watched CRAZY RICH ASIANS before going to Singapore.

In my apartment complex in Schaumburg, IL, everyone in corner units had to do the open-cabinet dripping-faucet thing when it dropped to a certain temperature.

I was surprised when I found I have to drip a faucet right here. My laundry room is on the second floor with the bedrooms and it backs onto an attic space with minimal insulation. Those are the only pipes in the house that aren’t well “inside” the jernt, and it’s lucky I had them install a sink at the last minute or there would be nothing to drip.

I never thought about not having a sink to drip. We never have had pipes freeze but never burst. The first time I called a plumber. The next time I thawed the pipes with a blow dryer. Then I turned both taps on instead of just one and insulated the pipes underneath the sink which were in the garage.

We just watched THE WIFE with Glenn Close.

Excellent movie.

Hopefully, Glenn will finally get her Oscar.

Well, our state is a sea of black ice. Not the main roads, but some neighborhood ones and many driveways and parking lots. The next few days will be treacherous enough in many states because of the temperatures. Fun, fun, fun. Stay warm, everyone.

Yes Indiana is closed.....US Mail delivery has been suspended.....my thermometer shows -10 degrees....that is without the wind chill factor....so it is an enforced home day for us.

Since my keyboard is wireless I only clean it when my computer is off. I am curious, does anyone else spray their keyboard with a cleaner? The only spray I ever use is a cold air can which basically blows dirt/food out of it.

I usually blow through the keys with air from a can like you do, Jane, but I pop off one of the lower corner keys so that all the debris can escape. If I was going to actually clean the keys, I'd spray a cloth, then wipe the keyboard with that. I don't think I'd spray any liquid, however misty, directly onto it. $:-\$

Interesting clip from 1976, Donny and Marie and a post-divorce Sonny and Cher sing "You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju8er_jnz5c

Musically, it sounds well-rehearsed, at least to these ears. But it looks like they just winged it for the jokes. Back then, I'm sure they never imagined these things would get watched away from the show.

That was fun (once the singing started

). I liked the arrangement.

I don't think many people liked the Klingons. I enjoyed the show more than I thought I would, and enjoyed it more as the season went on. I got a free month of CBS All Access, so I got to see it for free.

When the second season has completely finished, I'll wait until I get another free week or month (I continually get those offers) and watch it then. Or I could wait until the library gets the DVDs. They got the first season, so I'm sure the second season will be released, too.

And now, I'm finally leaving work. I needed to clean up the areas around my computer because in the morning, I and several co-workers are each getting a second monitor. I've never had two monitors on one computer before (nor have any of the people who are getting them), but EVERYONE that I've talked to who have two say that they LOVE having two and can't imagine having only one ever again. Even my sister has two monitors hooked up to her home computer. We'll see if I drink that Kool-Aid.
