    Can you let me know when it's the right time to freak out? That would be helpful.

    Health Problems

    4 of my kids are being tested this week. My youngest isn't 18, and the doctors recommend waiting until 18 for the test as it seems to produce more accurate results. I have 5 kids in 5 cities, making this happen is a nightmare with insurance. I believe this is why my panic level is so high. I...

    Yes you should. So should all of your siblings and children. It's nasty. And no, she's not catching any breaks. She's a fucking trooper. She's working full time again. I'm just trying to cope. She's a lot stronger than I am. I'm amazed by her every day.

    Health Problems

    My wife had 2 precancerous fibroids removed. This ultimately decides for us that she has to have a full hysterectomy (uterus and ovaries). She has Lynch syndrome. Something her mother an all her sisters have, but her mother never mentioned it. An aunt had to tell her. So sometime this summer she...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    When I worked as a chef we would get live salmon, cut it to the shape we wanted, then freeze it. When salmon tartare was ordered we would use the meat slicer to cut it paper thin. It is almost instantly thawed, and because it was so thin it really took on the flavour of whatever we put on it...

    What tickles your pickle

    My youngest son categorically refuses to use a blade, he has an electric razor. It seems to work for him, but I love the lather rinse and repeat. My older son uses a blade. Glad you were able to replace it!

    This is true, and I love glulam, but the size is an issue. If you're spanning 60 feet with glulam that's going to be a big ass beam. It's going to take up way more headspace than the equivalent in steel. A lot of 20th century American churches used them, but they had sufficient height so this...

    Yeah, they're pretty ugly. But the interior is rather nice.
