Go ahead and laugh. I heard today was his birthday so I got his album out and listened to it tonight. I saw him in concert late last year, still touring at 77 and minority owner of the Rangers keeping him busy.

Most construction and engineering offices have a fax, or even multiple faxes. The company I work for is owned by the largest steel fabricator west of the MS and their projects include most of the skyline of San Francisco, the airport there, the new ballpark in Seattle etc..and they have multiple...

At least they aren't little boys.

Town in Alabama is painted purple and gold with LSU signs as well. How Les Miles and a Cancer-Stricken Alabama Teen Transcended an SEC Rivalry | Bleacher Report Times are changing.

Trying to finish my master tanker. Annoying as hell. I haven't played really low tiers in probably 2 years or so. I need 5 more tanks all tier 1 or 2 and having no luck. Rare to get it in a match and then even harder to be the one to kill it. Also late at night tier 2 matches have 2-3 minute...

Webinars. Had one today which was basically supposed to be a sales pitch for us to upgrade our software. No way considering the link they sent us about the webinar included that the new version isn't compatible with files made in the old version. We keep our data for 20 years and need...

Rob Manfred will consider Pete Rose's request for reinstatement | Big League Stew - Yahoo Sports I hope he lifts it. I think it's a joke that Charlie Hustle is banned. He may have bet on baseball but I'm pretty sure he didn't throw games, at least while he was playing. If you ever saw him...

My alma mater made the tournament. I wasn't aware they still played basketball lol. Four mid-majors with double-digit seeds and Cinderella potential | The Dagger - Yahoo Sports

That must be some hell of a pussy.

They're nefing view range on arty...not sure why. But it was announced a few days ago.

The only code here is that they inspect the septic system when you sell it, state law. Everything else is fair game.

Finally someone played some music I had heard of, saw him in concert twice as well. Once in a bar with about 150 people too, good times.

Mellow mood tonight. Listening on my reel to reel.

We'll see. Jeremy Clarkson hints he may be leaving Top Gear | Media | The Guardian

75% of them spent years in the field as boiler makers or iron workers or at least years in the shop. You don't go to school and get out and be an engineer in our industry. Some of them came from the pipeline industry in the field. Not a wimpy bunch really. I'm the wimpiest one. You don't have...

Structural steel fabrication and I am the VP of the engineering department and also am currently PM on a billion dollar carbon capture project for a coal powered plant. Always been that way, pretty non PC and sometimes temper boil over. Not everyday but in 25 years I've seen a number of...

Seen several fights at work. Guys blow it off eventually and move on and that includes the owner and upper management. Nobody got fired, nobody got sued. Of course I work in a very non PC world.

I watched the steams yesterday. Looked like a random clusterfuck of running around in circles hoping to shoot someone. Hopefully that changes as they get more experiences at it. I got into the beta, but not downloading till I see some changes in videos before I invest any time in it.

I've never heard of the $75 at a gas station twice deal. I know some limit to how much you can charge per time like $75 or $100 but I've used multiple credit cards and lots of times I get $300 or more in gas at a time if it's for the boat or whatever.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't care. BBC and Clarkson and kind of dependent on each other at this point. They need Clarkson to make the show what it is, he needs the BBC to cut thru the red tape and make all the stuff happen that he couldn't get done if he did a similar show not tied to the BBC. I...

Considering they don't have any electricty except solar or a generator I'm pretty sure they don't have internet access either, unless it's available via sat phone. They are some kind of game ranger that works for the government and they say they have a sat phone but they are very limited on talk...

Double pickle as well, my new transceiver came in Monday. I took it out of the box but haven't connected it yet. Some people really get into it, I just like talking to people from places I have never heard of. When I am up nights I get on a daily net of a couple of guys in the Australian...

I just looked up the list of most wanted DXCC's - long distance contacts. North Korea is #1 for obvious reasons. Some of the others I have no idea where they are. There are 340 on the list, with the US being dead last for more obvious reasons. This would be the first "offical" contact from NK...

A DX expedition is just basically a group of people taking amatuer radio equipment to places you normally can't contact and doing nothing but contacts for a few days so operators (like myself) can check it off their list. Sometimes they are places that are closed to all human traffic like some...

I've posted about being a ham radio operator in here before. It was annoucned a DX expedition (an expedition to operate ham radio from a certain area/country etcc...) is going to be a country I need on my all worked countries list. North Korea. Next January/February for 5 days. I can't imagine...

Bumper pull. A 5th wheel is much better for pulling but it takes up the bed. If I pull my RV I want to be able to put a 4 wheeler in the truck and not have to use a toy hauler. Also during extended hunts out west I can put a freezer in the back and keep it running for weeks at a time and put a...

You don't have to pay quarterly, you just add a certain percentage to your taxes if you don't for the fine. Also figure that you will pay an extra 7.5% or whatever it is for self employment tax in addition to what you would as a W2 employee because you are paying the 7.5% (approx) for the...

How many idiots try to break into a car with the rope tomorrow?

Fitness Nazi.

Hard to believe anyone that screams rape nowdays 30 years later, especially now that rape has grown to include saying hello to a woman on the street.

Bill Cosby releases bizarre 10-second video to promote comedy shows | Daily Mail Online Fight for it coz.

I have a F250 diesel. Bought it new in 2000 when they still offered the 7.3 Of course I pull shit with it. My RV trailer, my 32' flatbed trailer, my 28' custom trailer for my airplanes, and my 2 boats. I only use it now for pulling stuff. The engine will probably outlast the body, but it...

Name a part of the country that is majority black that's isn't a shithole? That's why people segregate, it saves time and effort.

Times change. I think the Cosby thing is yesterdays news at this point unless someone comes out with new evidence or any evidence for that matter.

Until 3 months ago I got a regular paycheck every week and I was approaching the 1% in salary. The boss picked up checks from the CPA on Thursday and personally signed them on Friday so he knew exactly what everyone was making. Didn't matter to me, checks always cleared and I only deposted...
