Saw it too - distressing!

Happy Groundhog Day, y'all!

If Phil were here, he would not be seeing his shadow. And from the look of the ROC weather, he would not be seeing it there either... Stay toasty!

Slainte!

You might never want to leave home after this!

Sure wish his love interest was not in a cage - but perhaps she is a rehab and has to be...

Gotta say... I love the vision of "falcon flew out of elevator shaft..."

  Margaret, we have Beauty and Mr. t downtown,the 2 in Brighton,Lady Pefa at Kodak and our newest CB (CharBay) nicknamed as such because she has been seen in Charlotte and in the Irondequoit bay area. That makes a total of 6.

Thanks, MAK! My word! We are not the Flower City... we are the Falcon City! Lucky us.
 

BTW - I saw that you did not turn up for yesterday's watch til 8.30 - what kept ya?? 

Her alarm didn't go of, she over slept!! 

"...While visions of Peregrines danced in her head..."

Where are you getting these videos!? Great fun to get up in the morning, log on, and laugh! The kids and pets one is splendid - esp the Cheerio Spitter!

Some old Macs can still be useful. We have 2 working 24/7 to  provide streaming video from the Times Square building. If you know of anyone replacing a 2006 or newer Mac that's still in good condition, let me know. (Of course, why would anyone replace a 2006 or newer Mac in good condition?)

Sure do wish I could give you Big Mac, Shaky!
