    Yeah I guess for now. While EMS was here state policeman stopped and knocked and asked if my parents or the EMS team needed help or anything else. Just thought he'd be helpful and ask since he saw the EMS here. The guy on the EMS is a little bit older than I am. He saw the pics in a frame on...

    EMS had to come out today. Moved to poorest state in the union in a rural area and have EMS respond in 5 minutes as they were getting gas down the road. They don't charge if they don't transport which was news to me.

    Good thing it doesn't get very cold here at all. Stuff really can't shut down "on the fly" and it's not as automated as people think it is. Reason the roads inside the facilities are lined with valve turners on racks everywhere. Operator on a radio will tell a guy to turn X valve. I could see...

    Yeah seen that happen in the past. Keep the switches from freezing up in a yard. Kind of suprised haven't heard of a big industrial boo boo with this cold of weather. Our stuff down here doesn't react that well to the very cold. Or at least "cold" in the sense of outside normals for the area...

    I think all the weather forecasters with noaa or whatever have been busy watching the really cold to forecast the weather here. They've been predicting 20F for a low for almost a week. Today it's 60F and they missed the low and high by around 15F in the forecast.

    I hope they do something with trading or the trade API whatever is causeing the issue. List things for sale. They sit there for a day with no whispers. Then suddenly a dozen whispers wanting to buy it with 2-3 minutes of each other. Happened multiple times over the last week.

    Read an article a month or so ago that so much salt is added in winter to roads now it's starting to show up in rivers and streams long term. Dunno how much validity it had tho.

    Forecast really missed it pretty big this time. For the last few days they've been talking about it getting colder. Not cold like the midwest and such but cold for here. Down to 20F and clear. It was 45F at 4am. At 5:30 walked outside because I thought I heard a wreck. 30F and snowing and road...

    When Don Lemon of CNN bitched about growing up poor in Baton Rouge and being born in the womans hospital that's when I knew he was full of shit. If his family had been really poor he would have been born at Earl K. Long the charity hospital. It closed down and is now a KMart I think. The womans...

    Poll The Great Telemarketing Avalanche of 2016/2017

    I've kind of wondered about if they buy the numbers in bulk from when people put them down for something they buy or something. I recently traded phones with my grandmother to have while I take it in and have it changed (they're all on the same account). That number gets zero scam calls...

    Seeing that tree reminds me that they call a lot of trees standing on a logging site, widow makers for a reason. Also reason why in the southeast US the only chainsaw on a logging site is usually in the cab of the loader to be used if a tree is too long when loaded, the rest is all machinery and...

    Yes just like the cartoons. Standing on a platform. Pushed about grating out about 4 feet of it stuck off the platform, out of about a 20 foot piece. Walked out on to it and then turned back towards the platform and cut the grating in half. Leaving the part he was standing on to fall 80 feet...

    2019 NFL Post Season Thread - Rams vs. Patriots for SuperBowl

    Not an NFL fan. Never watch NFL games. I think the only NFL game I went to was in 91 or 92. Anyway the local news is delusional with a deal about how the rules in the NFL allow the comissioner to reverse the outcome of a game. LOL. That is why nobody takes them seriously.
