Just got home from a night out. I loaded the stove with 3 pieces of wood. When I wake up I'll re-load it, maybe with a blue or a green shirt on.

I think your choice of attire, with the color blending and all, was marvelous. Rick

I concur that the brilliant blue really made the picture pop!
I'm more impressed with the number of splits balanced on one arm.
As you mature, you may consider splitting that into two loads, or even more.
After looking at that picture twice, I had to sit down and take a break.
It's already half the load it used to be.

That happens when you guys get old.

We also begin to experience the onset of mentalpause, which seems to be pretty much the theme of this thread. %-P Rick

That's very interesting.
What color is it in Washington?

Black!

A guy called the cops to report his car stolen. It was still daylight when he entered the hockey rink. It was nightime when he came out. When the cop arrived he described his car as "the same model as this brown car" which coincidentally was parked right where he parked his red car earlier. It turned out the brown car had the same plate number too! The streetlight turned his red car brown. DOH!

If he paid more than about a nickel for it, I'd call it "Rip Cord". Rick

Since he probably didn't pay anything for it, it's a "zip cord". In fact, it's probably hot.

It became hot...very hot.
Actually it's a reinactment of the previously mentioned wood fetching (in case nobody figured that out).
The original logs were massively huge. So huge that I pulled a ligament or corpuscle or something.
My forearm was pretty much dangling at that point, but the OP requested a pic and I felt obliged to provide.
So I mustered up the last bit of strength that my arm had and picked up the smallest piecies of said species and snapped the pic.

Before or after you changed into the vivid blue T-shirt? Sorry about your corpuscle, that's gotta hurt, get well soon! Rick

To be honest, it wasn't a T-shirt at all. It was one of those snuggle blankets that you see advertised on TV. I always wear it when I get wood.
 
A guy's wife asks him "what are you going to do today" "nothing" he replies
The next day she again asks him "what are you going to do today" "nothing" he says again.
"You said thats what you were doing yesterday" she says "didn't get finished yet" he answers
