    Kind of lol. This is the 2nd one in the US. It's part of a carbon capture project going to an existing coal fired power plant. We're also doing the absorber. They spray the exhaust with a solvent. Then the captured carbon is pumped into the ground to "capture carbon" where it will be used in...

    First World Problems

    Odd. I'm in a rental house the company is providing while I shop for a house. I can park both my extended cab Silverado and my crew cab F250 in the garage here. Never thought anything about it. The apartment I stayed in for a month while the company got the house all lined up wasn't a problem...

    First World Problems

    Shop is running 24/7 now and one of our two shop foremans is on vacation. So this week I sit in the office and watch TV and play on the internet. The shop doesn't need me and I walk out once or twice a night. I guess I'm here in case the place catches on fire. President said they need at least...

    Even tho I grew up in a SEC town I had never heard of him and he wasn't on the air there until maybe last year when I visited and someone said they not got him. From the short time I listened to him on the radio I'm not sure how anyone likes him, including Bama fans. Shit LSU still rides their...

    Composer of Titanic and others dead?

    Title should read "Composer of Titanic and other films, dead?"Not other people. Plane registered to Oscar-winning composer crashes in California - Chicago Tribune Some pretty big films in that list not including probably scores of others I have never heard of.

    Anyone have experience with hiring temp to hire personel? I've had a tough time with it. I know for the posistion we are paying an above average wage and it requires nothing more than a high school degree with a little bit of something between the ears. We pay 70% of healthcare cost for people...

    Our office in Phoenix had to totally be redone because it flooded a year or two ago. It's right in town. Not far from the MetroCenter mall.

    Last year I had 5 days of 1000mg serioid infusion and for 6 months I couldn't taste a cigar. It sucked, couldn't work with nothing to do but sit around and couldn't enjoy a cigar. The local cigar place I will stop and pick up a cigar but I really don't fit in. I make good money in my work but...

    I assume you use cigarbid.com like a religion right? I buy a lot there, get 5 packs for 1/4 the price as CI, boxes at times for the same. All the bids expire around 10pm central each day. You can select how often they ship to save some. Like everyday or once a week or whatever. Probably use it...

    It hasn't arrived yet. The cabinet I have at the house has a little lining, but like I said even with active humidification it took several months to stabilize. Once it stabilized it's stayed the same for a couple of years now. I installed a small fan eventually because my digital hygrometers...

    My great uncle who lived on the TX coast pulled his airstream up there every year and stayed for 3-4 months each summer. He was the ultimate people person. He knew a couple that had been there for years and the guy worked/ran a museum in Kenai or Soldotna. He parked on their property each year...

    On a piece of furniture you have to be concerned about the wood that is actually the structure pulling moisture from the cedar the lines the actual humidor. The cedar soaks up mositure very quickly which is great for the humidor and seasoning. The wood in the structure is klin dried to about 16%...

    He a big cigar smoker? I don't chain smoke them like some people. I enjoy a good quality cigar every so often, at most once a month. When I owned a business I gave them out to people who came in for a meeting or whatever. Not really to smoke in the office. That's what I plan on doing with the...

    I have multiple cigars at my two houses. This one is just for the office and entertaining/relaxing etc...I'm going to put any cigars I put in that humidor on my expense account so probably a varied selection from really good cigars to mild ones for people who want a cigar that don't smoke or...

    It wasn't that a posistion player pitched. It's because they said fuck it when they were down by that much and took the phone off the hook in the bullpen. You would think if you're down by that much and they stick a posistion player in you might want to check the phone to see if someone...

    Nope, when I moved out of LA I gave my pro angler to the BSA and they use it on one of the 4 lakes at their scout reservation. They have a program for a father/son team to check it out for a day of fishing. One gets the pro angler and one of them gets one of their other kayaks.
