Good Morning Kossacks and Welcome to Morning Open Thread
We're here every morning between 6:30 and 7:00. Feel free to volunteer to take a day - permanent or just once in awhile. With the autopublish feature you can set it and forget it. Quite often the diarist de jour shows up much later, that's the beauty of Open Thread...it carries on without you! Just let us know in the comments.
Follow me over the jump for the Wednesday Edition which is a little bit different than most Wednesday morning open threads.
Sometimes there are times when you need a little help with your chores. In 1963, the self cleaning oven was introduced. The self cleaning oven uses extremely high heat to vaporize burns and spills on the oven's surface. I now have a self cleaning oven, but rarely use that feature due both to the time and energy required for the self cleaning cycle to work. Instead I try to clean the spills immediately. Still, it is a huge improvement over the continuous clean ovens that never worked properly and was impossible to clean by hand.
Like the self cleaning oven that I rarely use, today's Wednesday open thread diary will be self tending. I am leaving fairly early this morning to travel to visit family and probably will not be able to tend this diary. Unlike the self cleaning oven, I will not be locking the door to the open thread. But I do expect that all you good kossacks will find plenty to talk about without me. So what is on your mind today?
Enjoy your day and y'all be good!
