  1. “The enigmatic nature of the discovery prompted wide speculation with some guessing it could be the remains of the lost underwater city of Atlanta, a rouge member of an alien UFO fleet that crashed on the sea bed or some kind of anti-submarine device left over from the Second World War.”
  2. They’re “clean”, too! (When they’re between winter and breeding plumage, they look dirty.)
  3. This has been in -heh- heavy rotation lately. as has this:
  4. For two months I was the sole person in a sub basement shop. This was also the Thanksgiving/Christmas break. It was glorious.
  5. The point is, there is no point. Someone is bored/lazy and wants someone else to create a framework upon which to hang a conversation.
  6. The first one of you who posts Tom T. Hall, I am going to hunt down and kill.
  7. You guys are making me feel better here. I’m very familiar with local history and am pretty sure there was never a time when it WAS a main street.
  8. Do you get to pretend English isn’t your first language? The manual for the 3D printer at work’s software tells me to “fist click” a menu choice. Given that the software makes me want to rage quit sometimes, I’m thinking that was intentional.
  9. Notice that they never had Ricardo Montalban shilling those?
  10. My 2017 Ridgeline needed a fuel pump, but there were none to be had. I asked about a new truck and they said they had one coming…in two weeks. They had a 2019 on the lot with 10k on it. I ended up buying that. During the paperwork, they pushed the $2k extended warranty hard. The sales guy said “But it would have covered that fuel pump repair..” “…Which you told me was going to be $900. I’d still be eleven hundred bucks to the good….” <crickets>
  11. …and lest you guys think I’m never on the receiving end… There’s a bit in the Myster Science Theater movie where one of the characters has a manual for something and sets it aside. Servo says “Ah, I’ll just read this on the crapper”. It’s been a running gag here. We got some sort of thing with “some assembly required”. I tossed the manual aside and said that. Later on, I went in the bathroom and guess what was sitting on the toilet seat? 🤨
  12. So how long before you can build a deck?
  13. Meh. Once you get past that first trickle of cold rain water down the crack of your ass, it’s easy. 😝 I won’t start out in the rain, either, but in his case, he needed to get from A to B and the bike was the means to do so. I considered doing the EST from Buffalo to here, but lack of options of where to stay kind of made me shy off. They’re pretty much 50 miles apart. If you want to do more, you have to do 100. If you’re having an off day - or it’s raining - and you want to do less, tough shit. (And no, I’m not sleeping on the ground).
  14. Starting to see a few touring cyclists coming through on the Empire State Trail. <jealous> The guy I saw riding in 50 degree rain the other day, not so much.
  15. Welsh? He barks in all consonants?
  16. I think it would look better if they took it out of the crate.
  17. Country Squire, baby! If I dismember correctly, Dad’s was black.
  18. In my other post, I decided to devolve into drivel and I think I’ve succeeded - I mean this isn’t eggzackly eggistential.
