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.

Yeah I wanted to say the same thing. Dunno what those are. Pickled my tickle. Welder came today and it lasted here about an hour and a shop sent their delivery guy out to get it. Pretty nice profit for very small amount of work.

When my parents sold their two houses on FSBOBR.COM that was a running thread that the people looking were tired of dealing with real estate agents.

I have a cat that helps me hunt squirrels. She sits there and listens and will wak around a tree and the squirrel will come around to the other side to avoid the cat and that's when I shoot them. Her brother used to sit in the yard/field for hours and listen for moles. He would hear them and dig...

They don't charge that much for labor around here. Probably because bike riding is not a huge deal like other parts of the country and the market won't support it.

Power went off in the office one day but the shop kept power. Anyway I had to draw some templates for the shop. I was using the board and a drafting machine. Some of the other guys stood around going "magic" they had no clue what the thing was even tho it was in the room for the last 25 years...

Afraid to ask, how much did those set you back? Fighting winds is something we never have to do for the most part here unless it's from road traffic.

I've never ridden a fat tire bike. How do they do in deep mud or similar? I know people really like them in the snow and such, but never see much mentioned on really bad mud. Just ordered a new tig torchto pair with the new welder I got off ebay that I'm selling off. More exciting stuff lol.

Parents sold their last two houses FSBO. There was a company that listed all the stuff in that town and that's all they did. It got a lot of traffic. The first house they sold it was up a week and got a few offers, their financing fell thru and they called the next person on the list and they...

Yup, lots of apartments where I have lived offer short term leases or by the month for an extra fee.

So you married a lesbian, interesting.

Hockey Hall of Famer Gordie Howe dead at 88 - Yahoo Sports

I loved auto mechanics in high school. Senior year they had early dismisal if you had enough credits to graduate so I had 4 hours of auto mechanics than an hour of english and I was done at noon and went home. Stayed friends with the instructor up until about 5 years ago when he died. Junior...

I'm officially old. Bough Bard's Tale 1,2, and 3 also. I remember having Bard's Tale 1 but the rest I just passed on I guess.

I looked at the screenshots for the D&D collection. One of the player characters in the screenshots was titled "Not Drizzt". Lol. Someone was deep into role playing.

It's not the air roducts you are thinking of. They aren't refilling bottles and shit lol. They're a complete self contained plant service a chemical plant or refinery for the air and gas type needs 24/7. The one adjacent to Dow has probably 1000 people working 24/7 at any given time. It's not a...

Did someone say softball? This was Oregon a few days ago.

Tempted to get this. I dunno, I remember some pretty bad games back then. GOG.com

Dream job. Spot on.

I had to get off the zolof as it was affecting my blood sugar by a pretty good amount. The internist I saw who presribed it said I should really seek counseling instead of getting another anti depressent. He sent me a registered letter saying he would no longer treat me becuase I sent a message...

In our industry if they use the term engineer they better have a stamp and the ability to use it. Otherwise they just say you work in the engineering department which is pretty common, which is actually what you do.

All the shops here have it delivered every day. I just dropped off my tank and will pick up the refill next week. They get the at shop tanks of several thousand cubic feet refilled and the driver just takes my small bottles in and brings them back the next day. All the argon, helim, and co2 gets...

If you are concerned it's related to blood sugar, wal-mart sells meters to check it for only $9. Can just check it when you have a flare up or whatever. Not a huge investment.

I should have taken a pic but I didn't have my phone. She was not taking shit at all and I'm guessing she weighed 110 pounds wet. Both the people she fired could have just sat on her lol

I don't remember ever thinking I want to be a soandso when I grow up. My mom kept something I wrote when I was probably 8-10 years old for school or something. I wanted to grow up and live all alone in a cabin in the woods. Now I live all alone in a house in the woods. Later I wanted to be a...
