What if I have a flat or run out of gas or hit a deer or a patch of black ice? What if I slap her and she slaps me back and my face swells up and I can't see the clock? What if I'm carjacked by a gang of Prius chop shop thugs? What if I am attacked by Jack Russell terriers in my own driveway? It is just too risky. I can't chance it. She's on her own, foolish girl!

But you're absolutely right !

You people are crackin me up!!!

I meant to type "down" not "done". - humidity is now just fine. Mary, they were slightly damp when I put 'em in; I figured the heat would fix it. And it did, but BOY I was surprised by that initial reading!

Three hours to set time. Guess I'll get out a sharpie and mark my eggs, too. I can tell 'em apart okay, but it will give me something constructive to do in the interim.

Good point ..... yeah, I understand. I guess a cyber slap will have to do ....

Kelly...

gryeyes .... I read an article about that, too .... about humidity over 100%. Yes, it is possible.

Mary won't smack me, I'm her new best friend. Saved her about $700 in property taxes.

Those two EEs are in the largest box , growling at me about getting too close . At 11:30 or just a little over they're moving ; those eggs are mine to hatch if they're under there .
