Important Holidays: Groundhog’s Day

Weather:  Winter hibernation has caused an increase in your mid-section so that you can’t even see your own shadow when you walk. 60 days until Cancun? “Woof,” says the swimsuit-unacceptable body.

Urbandictionary word of the day (inspired by M) : JS’n.

The abbreviation for Just Sayin’. Typically used when you’re pointing out something not obvious to a person, something that is not supported by facts, or an obscure point of view. Sometimes it’s used as protection - meaning, you say something that may be offensive but the “JS’n” lightens the blow.

BK: It’s Cubbard Jubilee night!

CP (looks into the bowl): Umm, that looks like how I’d imagine spaghetti and sewage combo does. JS’n.

We’ve had a number of submissions to the UWoTD as of recently. Please be patient, we’ll get to ‘em.

Song of the Week: Mr. Big Stuff, Jean Knight

Notable Accomplishments:  Carinne is the official editor of all scientific papers being translated into English (both cannabis and non-cannabis related).  AL got two dozen free Krispy Kreme donuts because the girl was late to open up the shop. MM had a panic attack when she couldn’t find the tap to her box-o-wine, but this dispute was resolved peacefully (no wine was injured). BK/RE survived Vegas and the Florida beaches, and saw Blue Man Group. CJ/NC survived a week at home alone.

Hypothetical Situation of the Week:  In a perfect world (unfortunately, no lottery winning or extra vacation from work applies) -

If the groundhog sees his shadow you get six more weeks of ________.

FWN Member of the Week: Mark!

Mr. Reynold’s high school macot was the “ultra scary Dragon, definitely not of the Puff the Magic variety.” The most recent alcoholic beverage he has consumed is the one he is currently drinking, which is “pure unmitigated joy, ‘the half price Happy Hour Beer’”. If Mark had the opportunity to play a professional sport, he would be a middle reliever in baseball for a really good team. Lastly, if he had to choose between an extra finger and an extra toe, he’d pick the finger (one more to show off the bling, or one more to support the beverage he be draankin).

Thanks! (clap clap clap clap clap)
