New cast of the future. Custom made from a 3D printer

Cool, but, I hope it's a lot more sturdy and long-lasting than it looks...

Airstream camper trailers are the most popular campers. Trendy and retro, manufacture in Ohio can't keep up with the demand.

The Airstream trailer is one of the coolest inventions, ever...!

It is bad luck to eat chicken on New Years Day, said to make you scratch in the dirt (poverty) looking for your next meal all year.

Good thing @donaldtoo opted for Daisy Duck.

And, don't forget about the blackeyed peas for good luck...!

Well, Mr. Smartypants, I'd just like to point out here, that I've been saying that comment about the cold weather my entire life, and they stole my line for a cartoon character?!!

Well, that just kinda confirms it doesn't it?!?!

We all know, I don't "cook", but if it's easy enough, I will bake.
Behold, oven-baked French Toast. Sadly, what you can't see is the ooey-gooey brown sugar and butter layer at the bottom.
Served with 100% pure Canadian maple syrup, of course.

Airstream camper trailers are the most popular campers. Trendy and retro, manufacture in Ohio can't keep up with the demand.

Never vacationed in a camper, only been in them briefly at vacation/camping large expos in the city, when they let people walk through them, and then they try to sell them. I think that the Airstream is an American classic, however. For as long as I can recall, I've seen those on the road (in summer) and I always loved how they looked, all silver and sleek!!

If they could get it to really work as an actual cast for a broken arm, can you imagine the possibilities for "design"--people would go nuts picking out their favorite. (The only downside to the picture is that you can't sign that type of cast! I always remember as a kid, a kid with a cast used to love to have his/her friends sign the cast!)

Happiest New Year's wishes to you, Andrew C, and to your family.

@MinnieM123 There isn't much to countdown for January so I know you like snowpeople. Today is the only Olaf though. Snowman Day is because 18 is supposed to look like a snowman holding his broom.

I think that's a great reason for a countdown!! I'm in!!!

Keep the Booze, loose the coffee. Experts saying you're better off with a glass of wine over coffee.

I could never do that. I love coffee, especially dark roasts from Starbucks. Booze, I could take it or leave it.

It's a Canadian thing.
In my city, there are at least a dozen free outdoor rinks, hundreds of backyard rinks, and 7 or 8 pay-to-use indoor rinks.

I just love this!!!! Do you take advantage of the local rinks, too? I'd be out there every week, especially the outdoor rinks, very early on a weekend morning. I haven't skated for years, and would like to do that again.
