Here's an odd deal. Last week it got so hard to breathe I couldn't do anything. Sitting at the computer I was gasping. Walking to the other side of the house took 15 minutes of preperation and such. My mom said try some stuff that's made to combat acid reflux. I have had stomach pains and the...

I keep hearing snippets about the big fault in CA/west is on the move. Got your earthquake kit ready?

Thanks, gonna try the UI mod which currently seems to be my biggest complaint about the game.

Yeah I saw yesterday like 14 people had died.

Here's a dumb question. Can I get anywhere without doing trade skills? I hate them with a passion.

My first thought would be to ask if they were responsible for the fucking disaster of the real money auction house in D3.

There was one game that I was mildly interested in, but it's early access. Yeah, scew that. No thanks.

I'm only up to a whopping lvl 4 and just dicking around figuring out the UI and controls. I made an imperial. I guess I need to figure out how to cast since I haven't done anything so far other that hit shit with an axe.

Yup when I took my last job they offered a posistion in the bay area of CA with the parent company at three times the pay. Wasn't interested. They are still working thru the process now of finding out people rather live in other areas for less pay that can actually afford a house and such...

Ralph Stanley, dead at 89. Not only was he a living legend, he and his brother pretty much defined an entire genre of music for 70+ years. The number of awards he had won is staggering, given an honary PhD.

Got behind a 3 wheel motorcycle the other day going 30 on a 4 lane highway I couldn't pass. I figured it wouldn't matter as the entrance to the interstate was right there. He gets on the interstate and speeds up....to 35-40. Where do these people come from?

Do work with a company that still programs it's CNC plasma plate cutter (8'x40') and it's beamline (roller system with punches that will roll up to 36" deep beam down it and punch the holes in the web and both flanges via numeric control) with a punchcard system. Oddly enough the people that...

Well considering it's an auto immune disase, not really and that was 25 years ago. I just can't believe people live that much in fear of day to day life.

I'm cheap and lazy. I dig up ferns that come up naturally after we burn and give them out. They last pretty long, mom still has some I dug up 25 years ago.

I'm not all that interested in a lot of the mods. What the game looks like is of no concern to me. I played for just a few minutes the other day to start off. I will say the controls/UI were a bit funky, but I guess you get used to it.

And? I got sprayed by a skidder spraying Oust and for two days I pissed in the yard. Killed the grass, didn't die.

Someone asked about taking a test on an interview, don't become a welder. We start with a drug test and after they pass that they start various test. Various code test in a variety of posistions using various methods like stick, mig, tig, and then onto a variety of alloys. Once they pass a...

I went to a job interview in Anacortes, WA. We drove around town looking and the guy took me to an overlook to look at the town/harbor and they had blackberries growing. I picked a few and ate them. Guy came unglued, OMG OMG OMG you're eating an unwashed blackberry. Knew right then I was never...

Never lived anywhere without a Sonic. I fail to see the attraction for the food. The drinks are a good deal to stop and get a drink and maybe something else while you're there. The appeal is it's fast, you drive up and they come out in a minute or so with drinks. I sure wouldn't wait for it...

Are non competes common? I have heard they are more common the further up the corporate ladder you go. The reason I ask is I have known a few guys who might have 4-5 guys working for them. Brings in someone who is bright but basically knows nothing about the industry. Gets trained on the...

Mallards are known in the wildlife management/biology world as the rapist of the waterfowl world. True story.

Not mine, interviews are mostly about experience and maybe a meal and a lot of "see if they will fit in" type stuff. Maybe an office tour, shop tour and you never know what might pop up that they know doing such. We talk about hobbies and such, do they hunt/fish/shoot, travel etc...Nobody wants...

So I'm really up to date. Apparenelty I bought this 5 years ago when it first came out on steam and I got busy with work/turnaround and just skipped it. Now I'm sorting thru some of the mods. I did get the one from the first page about a better map as I found the map pretty blah.

Notice the lack of fat people in all these pictures from the past.

France comes with an already announced DLS deal for $60.

I got a $100 check in the mail today from a company I had done some contract work for a few years ago. Letter said once while there I made the comment about a procedure they could use if they got a bind time wise or an equipment failure and their "guy" said I was full of shit and we made a bet...

Someone needs to tell the aggies. They're all over the LSU board talking like LSU is their big rival. LSU doesn't want to be their rival. LSU is responsible for MO going to the east. That was a big mistake. A&M going to be in another 10-20 year downer period, they're still bitching about UT blah.

Pretty sure my house in TX is 45 minutes from a McDonalds. There's one probably 20-30 minutes as the crow flies across the lake, but it's an 1-1/2 or more trip to go around the lake to get there.

Is that why you bought the tent? Should have bought a Cabelas Alaskan Guide tent. Very good reputation in the outdoor world for people who use a tent for weeks at a time and not backpacking with it. They're on sale for 1/2 off right now.

Community coffee. I assume it's regional since I'm not a coffee drinker.

No it's complicated and I have an ongoing deal in the health thread. Got shingles, had an auto immune reaction to shinles ADEM which is just like MS but very severe but one time only. Got better after the mass corticosteroids but long list of other problems which aren't related to the ADEM after...

45 and it's very complicated. I think it's from having mega corticosteroids of 1,000 mg a day for a while to fix a neuroligical problem where they try to blunt your immune system, which they did. Cardioligst says I'm clear even tho my heart rate goes up to 150+ now at rest sometimes. 2.5 year...

An organization that the tracking only tells you when you already have the package. Going bankrupt...no can't be.

I've sat in business lunches and a guy will go off on another about how he ordered his steak. Umm yeah, multi million project contract on the line. Let's bitch about the way a person orders their steak. Never understood it. I really don't care if he orders whatever raw and wants it drug across...

I never understood why people get their panties in a wad on what other people eat. It's like people in this country aren't happy unless they get to complain about something.

Worked next door to a coffee plant for a few years. They got their beans off a ship on the river from where ever and roasted a few times a week. Hated the smell of that stuff. Of course it may have been having a giant coffee roaster200 feet away from my office. Office and the shop seemed to like...

Every rivalry protected...when did LSU vs. A&M become a rivalry lol.

So you're saying there's a chance?

Friend gave me that book when I first got into mountain biking and bought a bike. Still have it 10+ years later.
