DId you just invent a new day of the week? Winday? Is it a weekend or a weekday? Does it defy all rules?

Island Lake on Saturday and Boulder Lake on Sunday.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up,totally worn out and loudly proclaiming. WOW! What a ride!!

My vote would be that Winday would come right after Today or maybe even replace it!

Millie!!!

Probably go out from Malmo with a strong west wind. I'm going on blind faith that there's enough snow to make it worthwhile...any first-hand reports out there?

I think we should organize and rob banks at night so we can ride during the day. I have it all figured out, but everyone just laughs at me. ...except Nick Peterson. He was down with it! :wink:

Sounds like a possibility. Just one thought though do the banks even have any money in them? I would hate to go to the trouble and not get any payoff. There has got to be a better way.

I'm with the thought that winday is both a new day in the week and a good day of the week. I think I could spend a little dialogue time over a refreshing beverage of choice fleshing out the details of it.

Was winday an invention of intention or merely an accident? Brilliant regardless. Not as sublte as "cleaning out the garage" but certainly has its use. Maybe it's a new Snigglet...

I'll see about making it up "der."

Mike.
funny you should say "der".

i've been trying to work "der" into my everyday lexicon, replacing "duh" & "doi".

as in:

"that bottle of beer spilled on the ground".
"no doi".

-or-

"that bottle of beer spilled on the ground".
"duh".

substituted with

"that bottle of beer spilled on the ground".
"der".

(pronounced dehrrrrr & used to express anger or dissapointment)

I was up at malmo last Saturday and there was 1.5 feet of snow on the lake. No exposed ice at all.

Very nice

Probably be there today (Winday!).

robbie, 'bout time you chimed in:)

3/7 Milacs?

on the road to Duluth with XM pumping Dance Electronica and laughing at myself.

we will need to add "fer" as in "fer sure." I think it's a colloquialism. Uh oh...big word I don't get to use often.
