Since it's a morning meeting at my house, I'll have coffee, donuts, bagels and scotch or Jagermeister.

Nice!  I always dip my donuts cough syrup, but Jager will due nicely as a substitute.

It's a pretty big bottle so I don't know about that. However, for the garden, an hour should be more than enough as I live in a common tract home hell neighborhood where the backyards, and front, are small.

Now if the Jager Girls show up, you may want to hang around.

Well, if the "obtain quick lunch on your own" means downing some Jegermeister then I think there's just barely enough time.  Wait, did someone ask me or am I just answering?  Is there and echo in here?  I smell burnt rubber.

Thanks John,

Glad I don't need to wake up at O-dark-thirty to attend this.  The mention of doughnuts had me dreading an early morning.

The burnt rubber IS the Jagermeister. That stuff is nasty.

I have no clue. I'm not sure that people want to hang around in someone's yard in the rain. Plus, the Jager loses that really great rubber/cough medicine taste when watered down.

Here's the National Weather Service link:

Weather Service

Right now they're saying a 40% chance of precipitation with a slight chance of thunderstorms. 67 - 72 degreeds.

Here's the National Jägermeister Service page.

Jägermeister

They're predicting a strong chance of Jägermeister.

I hear what you're saying Matty. However, I am a little concerned that some of the plants might get wet from that....what do you call it? Oh, yeah...rane (sp?) I wouldn't want people to be put off by any plants that might get a little damp. It ain't fittin'....it just ain't fittin'

Rain will just add to the tropical feel.  It will will probably add at least two hours to the drive through the LA basin though.
