    Building a Treehouse

    I don't get this argument either. I was there back then and people just didn't find someone to blame and look for a payday when shit went bad like they do now. People looked out for neighbors and the neighborhood and no one screamed I am going to sue you for all you got when something went...

    Building a Treehouse

    It isn't crap. It was the way it was. I know kids that had severe injuries, drowned at pools and so forth and no one was talking lawsuits back then. These days someone is always neglect, to blame , at cause. Those days it was just a fucking accident.

    Building a Treehouse

    Back before the 90's we called those things accidents, said he went too young and moved on. Acted up in class? Wood was waiting for you in the hall. I met most species of wood from my teachers and the difference between real and faux leather from my dad. More than once I was out driving around...

    Building a Treehouse

    Didn't think about it but it is a good idea. House I just remodeled this last month the people had bought and gave away the old deck/doors( that I didn't want ) and other stuff via Craigslist. The people who came and said they was there for the deck had to be at least 80, man and his wife. I...

    Building a Treehouse

    Well with the posts or even knee bracing he could avoid bolts. Those bolts are awesome that was linked but he ins't building a house in a tree with hot tubs and kitchens like we see on TV. For many decades lags and bolts worked just fine for lasting 10 years a kid needs. The thing about these...

    I will add my expertise by stating nothing is more fun than digging post holes within 10 feet of a massive tree.

    That is still kind of common in south though. For what it is worth however, the shop they had/got even prior to the move had many employees we never saw including some blacks from what I understood. Still racist <> rapist is a far stretch. I wouldn't say one had to do with the other.

    Smartphones

    Ya it is the latest. I do have Hangouts installed but had been using the default. I'll try hangouts then. On the data issues, right after I posted that I have gone back to no connection again from according to sensory a 12mbs average for over 12 hours in the same location area. Sitting in...

    Ahh I had it backwards. I was going lightly to try to not select links, firmer and faster does fix that thanks! I am using standard messaging on the phone. I remember when I got it , it asked me some settings but now when I go to chat/text settings I see nothing to change regarding it. Like...

    I mean when using browser like chrome I will select links trying to scroll. Also when texting I will speak to text and get shit exactly like I want a book written out, everything is perfect, I hit send and it will change half the damn words on me. That pisses me off too. Another thing I...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Many many years ago I was the lead kitchen cook at Quincy's in my town. Always pissed me off how the servers would beg for me to cook on Friday/Saturday/Tuesday/Thursday night and Sunday lunch because good cooks= better tips. I never saw a dime of that shit although I was making near what min...

    So I ordered a 39" inch Sceptre for the other room and it fit into the cabinet with 1/4 inch to spare. I paid $264 shipped and the model was so new no one had reviews on it even yet. I'm actually jealous. I think it looks better than my 42"LG. The sound is worse but the picture and features...

    That 2 finger swipe down works on my Blu even. I'm guessing most of this shit is a android thing more than a brand thing. Any other cool shortcuts? Like when scrolling, I ALWAYS select shit by accident, have to hit back and pray I can scroll again without opening up random gay shit.

    Sons of Guns-Netflix

    I was inclined to believe it was all bullshit until people in his own shop starting posting shit about it as well. Maybe he also had a axe to grind. Maybe he was fucking the ex, who knows but it is more insider than anything else. Also, I don't use fuckbook all that much, why the fuck do people...

    Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

    Yes I know it is old. I ordered from Outback last week carryout. The chick handed me my receipt to fill out with her finger on the tip line. Really? Pizza Hut carryout? same thing. Tonight I order Buffalo Wild Wings carryout. Chick treated me like I was the most giant asshole on the planet...

    I watched all the seasons of this and I still just have a hard time buying it. He was a asshole yes, but always for the safety of the business and his employees. He seemed to have some morals and semi intelligent when it came to not darwining, so it is a bit of shock to me if true. Now if it...

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    Actually is at least the second one he has done. His original tree was on Aug 3rd for Groot, then on the 18th Aug he planted another one with the challenge. Sorry VD is one of the few actors I actually keep up with.

    It is supposed to be and normally is even on VH1 but there was 5 seconds where there was no blurring at all. It was a 42 inch Vagina on my tv as clear as any porn.

    I saw that episode and noticed it, played it back at 1/15 speed thinking the entire time WTF. Could see asshole and vagina clearly doggy style. Didn't shock me when it came up as a lawsuit.

    The Last Ship

    Going in I had given his wife a 50/50 of life/death. I was a bit shocked she died but glad I was at least right. Killing people to burn them as fuel was unexpected. Next thing you know, Natasha Yar will be seen having cookouts.

    Overall happy with the series, especially now they have a cure and it can go to the other wacky shit in a world mostly dead. Just hope it doesn't take a Falling Skies or Revolution survival route. We have what 9 months until it starts back up again ( 3 extra episodes next year ). Also pretty...

    Ya he did mention he does a lot in the hospital and uses it there to her for everyone. Which is mainly the overweight and specifically back injury/surgery. For MS testing he does in the clinic which here was Graves Gilbert. Her being Medicaid might have had something to do with it as well, not...

    Alllllll righty then. Got my 42"LG for $276 as above. Had it hooked up a few days now. First off it is awesome, picture is better than Vizio mostly I had. Although the Vizio had a true glass front which made stuff look less washed imo. But the quality is nice. Couple issues however. One is my...

    Real benefits of using your own modem vs ISP provided combo router/modem?

    Well for TWC it was 9, 5 for the modem 4 for the router( which they charged even if it was a all in one unit ). I've already saved $18 since a few pages ago in this thread. Shit will pay for itself and then some every year.

    Confirmed the doctor only uses the Fluoroscope for fat or people with compressed spines or back surgery, at least this doctor. He did entry and everything by eye site, no other tools, but told her after he hit bone if he does it again he was going to use the scope. It took him 3 times to get...
