My Ouija board says -17.6 degrees F. You better send that to the fix-it-shop! My Crystal Ball has a nasty crack in it, and distorted the 3 to look like a 1  What's the prize we all tried to guess to win?

I'll leave it up to Bing if he wants to divulge the nature of the prize.

Snow here is too little and too noisy for stalking.

Still at the dealership getting prepped for a delivery to an address that ain't yours  Dwight might be sending you out a box of blown circuit breakers and fuses tho. If it's about 50" long, and fairly light, be prepared to shell out a few bucks for proper disposal

I had no idea that I really was the winner when I posted about the Lexus. I have supplied Dwight with both my mailing address and my in town street address. Dwight, if you are driving the Lexus down to Browntown I can give you my GPS co-ordinates.

Yeah. It is about 90 years old, and stood against the wall behind my aunt's couch for about 40 years. It is a little warped. Catmandoo, my Aunt too had a very old one when we were kids, but we had to use it without the adults knowing. They said it was dangerous, which of course as kids make you want to use it even more. I would love to see a picture of yours, especially to see the planchette. The board has only been around since 1890 (patented 1891) but planchettes are known to have been used in China as far back as 1100 AD, known then as Fuji (planchette writing) to contact the dead and spirit world. Credit Wikipedia I've always been mystified by that thing but haven't used mine since I bought one about 15 years ago.

WOW: Got a package from Dwight today. Perfect gift. Especially since I just made a trip to the liquor store to make sure I have a spirited weekend. Can't say what the gift was, but it holds 8 ounces and was Sterling Silver (well maybe stainless steel)
Thanks Dwight. Stay tuned, I am thinking of the next wager.

I have contacted legal counsel. Does your thermometer have calibration traceable to a primary standard?

I am just glad Obama has fixed this global warming problem.
I heard on the news something to the effect that around 2000 low temp and snow records were broken last week.

Alright guys here is another contest with a single grand prize. It won't be as practical as the gift I got from Dwight but you still might like it.
In honor of our esteemed colleague Dave Willis, the next bet will be to guess the combined score of the SDSU Jackrabbits Basketball game Wednesday December 18 against Wayne state. The person who guess the combined score of both teams will get a little something in the mail. Contest ends at 6:00 PM Wednesday December 18. In case of a tie guess the winner will be the person who posts first.
Wed, Dec 18 Wayne State (Neb.) Frost Arena 7:00 p.m.
