No idea, it's cloudy out but it's supposed to clear out by 9. Hoping to hit the shore in an hour or so!

Two songs asked why I was born. Right now I'm born to eat this delicious bowl of cookie crisp
Krista (host) 7:29:56 AM
cookie crisp is a top tier cereal
Krista (host) 7:30:40 AM
my own personal favorite is raisin bran I mix up myself. once, my husband made bran at home and it was such delicious cardboard
Krista (host) 7:37:09 AM
fruity pebbles is my current #2, followed by Lucky Charms
TAndy 7:38:31 AM
I've yet to reach the mental age where I want to try raisin Bran. But that is the only cereal my dad eats
Krista (host) 7:39:07 AM
I've been a big fan of it since I was a kid.

Good morning MrM, Parrscream, Christine.
Parrscream 8:06:58 AM
Krista - I hear you... that texture is not the best... I think I still like them as an adult because those were the types of cereals my parents always had in stock when I was a kid and I need to eat some sort of cereal while I was watching my Saturday morning cartoons.
Parrscream 8:07:17 AM
GM TAndy!
Christine 8:08:08 AM
You have to let Mini Wheats sit for a minute and soak up the milk or almond milk, etc. Otherwise, they're too dry & scratchy!

@Chef, I bumped into a WPRB supporter wearing your shirt on Saturday evening at an event near Collingswood. I had been wearing mine earlier in the day, but changed bc it was a sweaty day. We almost were twins.

Famous Blue Raincoat another from that lp wow
Krista (host) 8:30:35 AM
It's interesting to me how much his lyrics changed from pre Yom Kippur war and post Yom Kippur war
Krista (host) 8:32:35 AM
the liner notes about the famous blue raincoat are hilarious
Krista (host) 8:32:38 AM
I had a good raincoat then, a Burberry I got in London in 1959. Elizabeth thought I looked like a spider in it. That was probably why she wouldn't go to Greece with me. It hung more heroically when I took out the lining, and achieved glory when the frayed sleeves were repaired with a little leather. Things were clear. I knew how to dress in those days. It was stolen from Marianne's loft in New York City sometime during the early seventies. I wasn't wearing it very much toward the end.
Krista (host) 8:32:57 AM
someone stole it! someone has it
