    Lets talk about our dads

    My parents have 3 kids. 2 don't talk to them, and one lives on the other side of the country. If they don't have the self reflection to realize the problem is not us, it's them, then I guess I don't care enough to try to fix their problem.

    Lets talk about our dads

    I can remember a few good times with my dad, but it's not "choosing" to remember the bad. It's that the bad far outweighs the good. Nothing is black and white, it's all shades of gray, but if you make shitty decisions more often that not, no one is going to remember you for the time you took...

    Lets talk about our dads

    So, my mother - As kids, we weren't allowed to go anywhere or have friends over. This was my dad's policy. My mom would let us sneak out occasionally, but for the most part, the rules stood. My mom would literally have to hang up the phone on whoever she was talking to when my dad got home...

    Lets talk about our dads

    Yeah, my mom is pretty garbage. She somehow managed to stop thinking for herself after she married my dad. She always chose my dad over her children, and that is something I cannot ever understand. There's a story there I didn't bother to get into, but maybe I'll tell it tomorrow if I've got...

    Lets talk about our dads

    My dad is one of the hardest working motherfuckers I've ever known in my life. He worked 60 hours a week growing up as an airplane mechanic, then came home and built 2 airplanes in the garage while I was a kid. Master tradesman, he did absolutely everything. At no point was there ever a...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Maybe. Who's asking? But honestly, I wouldn't be banging those sluts either, so it's rather moot. Now that I think about it though...last year I did find out that the previous 2 women I dated had babies in 2020, so maybe that was their plan. They both knew I was snipped, however, and that's...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I've found quite the contrary. I'm very up front with the fact that I'm done having kids and it's been nothing but positive. Usually a "sweet, let's get tested and skip condoms" No argument from me. Condoms suck.

    Highlander

    I don't think I've ever met anyone who hates Highlander. It's just a fun, campy movie with a cool concept that gets weird when you take it too far. Which is why we need to leave it alone and not do some woke remake of how the Gathering needs more diversity.

    It was a long time ago. I tried to block it out. Thankfully it worked partially. I saw that pile of shit in the theater. I've fucked fat girls and been less embarrassed.

    Unless you watched Highlander 5 or whatever the fuck that awful one was where they made it so the prize was you could have kids. Let me make this clear...I love highlander. I've watched probably everything ever made. I bought the series set on fucking VHS. And I regret watching that shit.

    The weird thing is that as I'm splitting it, I actually feel kinda bad for taking down such a beautiful tree. The problem is that when it's alive, it's not beautiful, it dumps walnuts I can't really use all over my yard and kills all my vegetables. So it really has to go....I just feel bad...

    Nothing that I can think of. A lot of that stuff is 3-4" across, but only the Heartwood is black. So really, you couldn't even get a 2x2 out of it, and that's just not worth trying to square up. I have a lot of 5-6" stuff I'm gonna cut my teeth on milling though. ....and the tree isn't even...

    I'm pretty sure the inside of eggs is a sterile environment. The only risk for salmonella comes from the outside of the shell, last I heard. So don't drop your eggshells into the bowl and you should be golden.

    Well, that tree is kicking my ass. Also, black walnut heartwood is hard as fucking rocks. I decided to trim off everything I can reach with a ladder. Good call, because a lot of the branches near the ground are 20' long and weigh more than I can move myself. So, I trimmed out all the shit to...

    Got a mill on the Husqvarna in the back of the truck there. Should be wide enough, considering the inch or so of white wood I'll be trimming off anyway. And yeah, rip chain is the next thing on the list, but I've got a couple weeks before I'm gonna need it anyway. Biggest problem I think I'm...

    Tombstone does have a garlic bread crust available as well It's basically my household "standard" frozen pizza. We eat Jacks when we want a pizza done in 10min or aren't hungry enough to eat a tombstone, and something higher up the chain when they're on sale only (fuck you $10 frozen pizzas).

    When I talked to a different urologist (not the one who did mine), he said "chasing pain with surgery usually just ends up with more pain."

    I will check later, but from what I skimmed, sounds like we have different issues. So, I'm in pretty sporadic pain nowadays, but it gets worse if I don't maintain the same frequency. So, if we are banging a lot, that's fine. If we're not banging, that's fine...it's the area between the 2. We can...
