Given all the howling this week over the tropical depression, I had hoped Pfizer would release a Tropical Prozac. Two days of rain this weekend, might get a power blink; some really rich people might get a mildly wet back porch. The insurance companies will just jack rates on everyone to cover...

Sorry to hear, that's a rough one. That picture has me really kicking myself for not getting moved out to Vegas this year. After 25 years surrounded by flat swamp land and water, and pretty much not even getting an out of state vacation until last December (only time I've been further west than...

I'm absolute shit at geography, my wife has a map fetish and can remember every random human drawn boarder down to the inch. So I pretty much feel the same way you do except it's about everything west of Denver. I haven't been there, therefore it doesn't really exist and I can make up...

I know you don't want a real answer, you just want to make this face. ..but no, I'm that guy who's going to answer you anyway. As my Historian, Teacher, Farmer grandfather used to say as he got older, "We should just blame everything on Mesopotamia, it's their fault." Wikipedia agrees...

Things a teenager texts her dad at 2 am for no reason other than to get a "what the hell child?!?" reaction as a side dish with her midnight snack; as she cackled with mischievous glee from the kitchen.

My mother was in the health sector, I spent the better part of my teenage years around a combination of M.D.s and Ph.D's or M.D. and Ph.D to be's. Preventative stuff I don't mess around with and get done annually, I want to be around a long time to annoy my kid with dad jokes. Now getting the...

I've had to get them since I was 29, when I discovered I have diverticulitis as well as polyps. When they find nothing I get 4 years off, when they find something I get 2 years off. So far they alternate, after a 4 year wait they find something, so I have to go back in two years at which point...

Only good way to start a Friday.

Mine's in October this year. Best part is my wife's insurance has secondary coverage called Surgery Plus. They cover 100% of it and since their doctors are a bit out of the way, they pay a cash stipend for gas. So every time I have to go in we get about $150 in a debit card, which I save until...

Week 6 1/2 out of 9 1/2ish maybe, we'll see. 30 Tops on 3 plants Genetics: Dutch Passion: Think Fast Nectar System The yellowing is my bad, I had several weekends out of town and kind of gave them a heavy YOLO feeding before leaving knowing they'd be nearly dry if not drooping when I got...

When I worked IPM for a greenhouse in 2020. my boss handed those out in our Christmas gift bag. I gave them to my niece, I think it was the bacon and cheddar flavored ones. She took them to school and got in trouble daring other kids to eat them. I had a good laugh when my sister called pissed...

Well I bought them last week but they arrive tonight. A couple new chef's knives, 4 steak knives, and a set of pairing knives. I got tired of the 20+ year old knives that were handed down to us from relatives before and after college, they weren't high end when they were new, and definitely...

No game meat, but I have a fat joint I rolled last night, got my monitors and subwoofer turned up and playing Avicii and Orbital. Very chill morning.

Enjoy it, the most relaxing moments of the entire 21st century so far have been when my phone is lost, broken or otherwise unusable. Frustrating at the time, but as soon as the electronic leash is back I wish it was broken again. /Worse comes to worse I can charge my old Zune if I need tunes...

I was born with colic, my mother swears I didn't sleep for more than 3 hours a night the first 5 months of my life. When I stopped crying and slept like a baby, she called the hospital and told them I was broken. I usually go for about 19-22 hour days with rarely more than 4 hours of sleep a...

Mine was built crossing both '79 and '80, right in the middle of the Florida cocaine craze. I shudder to think how many rails of blow were done while my house was under construction. Judging from the plumbing, the plumbers showed up with ounces of blow every day. Electrical is a close second...

In the beginning, the water line in the ceiling broke. 8 Years, 2 more plumbing leaks, one plague, and the wife STILL working from her bedroom. Three walls, the back half of the ceiling all replaced; foundation slab crack, and exterior cinder block repaired, in wall HDMI and electrical for...

She like electronic? How about symphonic - electronic? /This is my fantasy orchestra.

Yeah... My wife bought a box fan after I'd apprehended both her pedestal fans. Now I've kidnapped that too and turned it into a drywall dust filter system.... AND I've got permission with a longing sigh, to get another box fan to have a secondary air filter while drywalling. :bigjoint: I put...

You're not wrong, and that's an endless discussion with the wife every time some plastic bobble that could be 3D printed is purchased. Hopefully when I'm done with the remodel I'll have some space which is flat, level, and sturdy enough to hold a 3D printer and/hopefully a light duty C&C. If I...
