    Either that or a colorful poncho would do in a pinch.

    Yes, or a throw would do. Failing that, a water cannon. That would be fighting fire with fire.....

    Yes, and I can remember wondering why anyone would want to soak someone else with a glorified water pistol.....well, not without permission. Otherwise, it seemed like an assault. In certain circumstances though, quite useful...

    It makes me think back to the days when we all would all eat out, surrounded by second hand cigarette smoke. Up to 25 years ago, I was contributing to that cigarette smoke.

    I certainly don't miss those days.....

    Staffordshire police have threatened to arrest children who throw snowballs at strangers. Where has all the fun gone?

    If the snowballs are directed at strangers, I can see how that action could, in literally the wrong hands, be construed as having possible malicious intent or, at the very least, to cause discomfort. Better to get a lawyer draw up a contract for a consensual snowball session.

    In the old days, they would just retaliate. It was part of our heritage.

    It was mainly children who would threw snowballs. They now seek far more sophisticated activities, like taking intimate selfies, and sending them to complete strangers via the internet. Ah, the innocence of youth.....

    When there's no credit available, you can often expect a chargeback.

    Watch out when it brings its friends along for the party. They'll really get under your feet.

    The only snow of the season here was a sprinkling overnight a few days ago, and then disappeared very quickly in the morning sunshine.

    I'm sat here at my bureau [[came to me after my Mum died, and is the same family heirloom I used to do my homework in the 60s - and now I'm in my own 60s), and it's a lovely sunny, if chilly day outside, in Florida UK. Blue sky, with a few fluffy clouds. OK, I bet that makes ya feel sick, but just reporting it as it is....

    p.s. is it enough snow for you to ski there...if that's your thing?

    I expect it will result in a name change, but it will require a lot of legal work. Awkward if the name cannot then even be given reference [[which seems logical), as in 'formerly known as The Redskins', unless that it is agreed that the name could be used in that context for a period of time, to allow for adjustment.....

    And I recall that, when she finished playing with numbers, Dionne Warwicke changed her name again...to Dionne Warwick...

    Unfortunately money rules this country,so the name will stay because some palms will get greased[native american palms]and they will get the new stadium back in dc mark my words.
