The Anything Thread

[OldSaw]

It's a recycling container. No obsolete equipment, no food, no toenail clippings, no dead animals. I'm probably forgetting a few things.



It was a continuous loop.

By definition a loop is continuous. Where's that minister of repeated redundancy anyway?

Blake's Security training: The course includes sitting in a chair, pointing toward the elevator, shooing smokers away from the lobby entrance, and killing intruders with your thumb.

Are you OK?


Home made bread is so cool. That was one of the last things I did for my sister just before she died. She really wanted some home made bread and had her favorite recipe taped to her bread machine. Of course, I baked it in the oven, not the bread machine. I felt so bad though that that sweet little thing could only eat a bite or two. She crowned me the bread king for the rest of the week.

That was very nice!

[Intrigued]

But she's real. As real as the dwarf who sneaks into my bedroom at night and steals my underwear.



No, I think we live in dread*.

:scared:

[Swampfox]

Was it my singing, because I don't have to do GERMAN opera. I make up the words, so it could be any language you like.


So much for loose ends.

That's tight.

Dead meat is redundant. Once something gets classified as meat it hardly ever recovers.

I don't care. I will not be pressured into having fun just because we arbitrarily use a base ten counting system and a big round number is coming up.


The Penguinators can make very sure you don't have fun. :lol:


Wait with the borders sealed, how does the Czar get back after the summit? :blink:



So much for loose ends.

Why does the Vice Czar for Vice need to concern himself with such details?

]That has been taken care of and the Czar will be escorted to safety once he returns to Glorious Cheddardom! All Hail The Czar!

It is very innovative to blame a toy for your shortcomings. Surely, this method will spread like wildfire.

He was the villian in an awesome video game called The Neverhood. It was all done in claymation and was a puzzle type game. You started out as a character that wakes up and have no clue what you are supposed to do. You click on things until you figured out how to get out of the room. That is how the whole game worked. It was awesome. It was from the '90s and probably won't run on anything modern.

http://img.listal.com/image/38883/600full-the-neverhood-cover.jpg

That sounds like a fun game. Did any of you ever play "Toe Jam & Earl"?

[gollum83]

why do you think I'm named after him :blush:

Your mother named you after a video game that came out in the mid-1990's? :blink:


Are you OK?

The real question is are you?


That's tight.

My words are all played out. :sad:


Why does the Vice Czar for Vice need to concern himself with such details?

Um, because you'd like to keep your job?

[skklog]

That sounds like a fun game. Did any of you ever play "Toe Jam & Earl"?

It was a great game, and no i'm never herd of it.

heres a clip from the game, it's mostly video, but theres a little game play in this clip.

I don't blame the toys, I blame your singing (in any language)! :glare:

[a_bit_crafty]

That's so sweet of you. :lol:



Fresh bread! :drool:

If it's okay to be jealous, can I also hate you too? Curse you and your fresh bread! :letterk2:



Were you ever in the loop? :blink:

If you do, you get no bread from Crafty!


:lol:

:thumbup:

:yesnod:

:drool:

*Takes a bow* Thank you, thank you.


I don't care. I will not be pressured into having fun just because we arbitrarily use a base ten counting system and a big round number is coming up.

You will and enjoy it like the rest of us.:a53:

I do it all in the oven, and really enjoy doing it. We don't buy bread at the store any more, as the family likes this better.


I updated my post

Not enough flair for #3900.

That reminds me of Mr. Crafty, as in, "That won't [start a fire/blow up/spontaneously combust/whatever], will it?"

"It shouldn't," he says.


So, is everyone caught up now? Oh wait, Chuck isn't.

Norris? :kyle1:

And furthermore, where is Andrew?

[blackfoot]

This is from the game

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sL11mYiuco



why do you think I'm named after him :blush:

:thumbup1: This game had a very unique parallel to the bible. Plot was klog was jealous of Hobart and stole his crown. It eventually reveals a story of creation similar to the bible. At the end, you are given the choice to rule the Neverhood or return the crown to Hobart, the creator.


That sounds like a fun game. Did any of you ever play "Toe Jam & Earl"?

It was a very fun game. I wish I could play it again now. :001_unsur

[blackfoot]

MG must be keeping him busy. :thumbup1:

[profsaffel]

Prayers for the family, please. My aunt finally passed away a few hours ago after a long hard battle with cancer. She had been living with my parents in their care for the last several months. It's both a sad time and a relief for all, if you know what I mean.

Thanks,
Doug

Which one did you get, Jesse?

The Owner's Club -- couldn't help myself after Paul gave an extravagantly good recommendation for the 2009 Limited Edition, and the SOC is purportedly a continuation of the line.


But you're in the middle of the freaking desert. I'd take that over upper 80's/mid 90's and ultra-high humidity.

As someone who grew up in the latter and currently lives in the former, going to swampy South Carolina this week makes "dusty and dry" look pretty good.



Not enough flair for #39000.

Someone's been paying attention. Very nice!


And furthermore, where is Andrew?

Yeah!

My grandmother's recent passing was very similar to this situation. I understand, and wishing you grace to handle the relief and sadness.

@Swampfox/Ray... just keep your dirty socks in your underwear drawer. That will solve the problem.

@Chuck... Looks like that place is a bit of a hike for me (staying at the Flamingo), but I do loves me my slaughtered proteins. I may have to give it a shot in any case.

@Craft... fresh bread! :drool: :drool:

@Doug, prayers and condolences for your family & your aunt.

There, unlike Chuck, I'm now all caught up.

Oh, it went well! Ronald McDonald made a grand return from his long sabbatical. :thumbup:

The Captain doesn't "know nothing about nothing". Plausible deniability. He does stuff to help cover our six though. One officer is not in the loop at all. Another one is in on it, but not involved. Then, there is the our triad of evil, the two other officers and myself.

Sam 1, (Samaritan 1, our helicopter) took off for a scene flight. As it took off, I thought, let's take Ron to the helipad. I grabbed the department digital camera and the three of us met. We called the Captain ad had him face the CCTV camera another direction so we wouldn't be on video. Next, we worried about the outsider catching us since he was on floors. So, I called the one that doesn't get involved. He was posted in the Lobby. I asked him to call the other officer down to give him a restroom break. That got him out of the way. I put the ramps down and opened the doors while the other two got Ron. I then took off to the 8th floor roof, West Hall. They wheeled him out on a hand truck and uncovered him. I took a couple of shots from the roof and they took one with a cell phone. I went back down and called the elevator, which opened as they brought Ron around the corner.

It was a picture perfect operation! :thumbup: As we rode the elevator to the sub basement, we were laughing. What a silly thing to get fired over. Can you imagine having to come home and explain to your wife why you got fired? :lol: We were saying our wives wouldn't believe us. :lol: But, among the select few that we trust to share our adventures with, we are heroes and legends. We have earned a great deal of respect among them for our blatant disregard for the rules and willingness to risk our jobs and personal injury for the entertainment of it all. :thumbup:



Howdy!

Sounds like all kinds of fun but seriously don't get caught or fired over shenanigans!


Have so...









Ditto to all of the above. My allergies have been driving me bats for a couple of weeks now...








Have so...

:lol:


Really?

Really Really?

:lol::lol::lol:



*burp* Just finished a Sam Adams Summer Ale.



:001_cool: Outstanding on the hat, apologies on the AC.



No you haven't.



That definitely sounds like Chip. :thumbup:



Understood. I'll monitor from the dacha in South Carolina.



We monitor where we are.



As I'm on vacation with four couples and six children (none over six), I understand.



Yes they are.



Nah. You wouldn't believe the infighting you have to deal with.



I'm here in Hilton Head, SC, with my family, fellow B&Ber Donner and his wife, and several of our friends from graduate school and their kids. All is well, though getting here was quite a chore.

Batch 24 shaves pretty well, though I haven't had a chance to really put it through its paces, and of course the beach water is sulfurous and buffered with something so it's quite different from the water in Denton.

My new Semogue brush didn't make it to Denton before I left for the beach, so I'll be another week behind the curve breaking it in.

And now I'm gonna run out to the beach to retrieve the sun shades before
the incoming tide gets them. :laugh:

More later. Howdy, y'all.

Nice Roll! :thumbup1:


Hello from Las Vegas. Having dinner tonight (in a few hours) at my favorite restaurant/cafe at the Paris.

In case anyone is interested the predicted over night LOW is 85 deg. Predicted daily high of 108.

That is all.

I lived in Vegas for 5.5 years. Kind of takes the fun out of vacationing there.


We're in the middle of putting up this coming winter's hay, so it'll be another month or so before I get any kind of a vacation, but in August I get to go shoot the Idaho State Cowboy Action Shooting Championship...

It'll be another ten days before I get a day off work from my real job, too...

One word....

AWESOME!


Cowboy action shooting is way fun. I shoot "Frontier Cartridge" which is cartridges loaded with either real black powder or one of the BP substitutes. I actually shoot American Pioneer in my pistols and rifles, and either Goex (for night shoots. Makes really cool flames) http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs067.ash2/36736_111890648859167_100001146978955_78206_390918 4_n.jpgor Pyrodex in my shotgun. I like to make the timer and the spotters gasp and complain due to the smoke...

Good luck, what a great hobby!


this is Klog, thats where my name come from.

And now, tangible evidence of today's craftiness. It's OK to be jealous. :biggrin1:

We have seen the face of Todd, and he is us.



No, I said I was out of the loop between 95-98.

:lol::lol:


The Penguinators have sealed the borders against the threat from without to the Czar and his Czardom of Cheddar.

They will soon be rounding up the Enemies of the State who conspired to turn the Czardom of Cheddar into the People's Gouda Republic of Cheese.

Maybe I should patent this?

No, he is not real. We made him up because we wanted the corner cubicle. I thought this was already established?

Skkklog was a mistype, the skklog is that someone on the Internet had my name of Sir Klog, so that day I went by Skklog. then next time I played a Lan game I forgot to chance it, and it stuck.

I'd say based off of the fact that you are early into your college career you are 19 but based on the pictured I'd guess 21 or 22.

Better question, who would fight a man with no pants? :blink:

You know, this is something I have learned. Some of the most successful fighters I have come in contact with are the ones that strip off all their clothes to fight. As you can imagine, if a 250 Lb black woman strips down naked, stomps out of her room with pendulums flailing, heading for you while yelling, "Oh yeah, you want some of this don't you!", you become very hesitant to make a stand and get into a fight. Heck, you have my respect if you don't run away screaming like a school girl!

And yes, it is equally effective for men as it is for women. If you want to go for the full effect, spread some fecal matter, blood, or urine on you before battle. That really intensifies the horror. :eek:

Yesterday was a long grueling day and the air conditioner fan went out in the truck. I thought I was going to pass out from heat exhaustion and Mrs. Oldsaw looked like she was going to die. My dispatcher said it could wait until I was unloaded to get repaired, and that won't be until late tonight.

I wasn't waiting. I called maintenance and removed the defective fan myself and then drove to the nearest Freightliner dealer, which was on our route, and got the new fan. It took longer to do the paperwork than to install it. We're happy again.

Not yet, but now that I'm not all itchy, he will. He further upped his awesomeness rating (that's right, I used "upped") when he generously offered to split the cost of taking down a tree in the neighbor's yard that needed to be removed. What can I say? They've been good neighbors.

But he'll get a 3rd foot massage, plus back massage if he checks in.

(we just won't remind him that he usually gets that stuff, anyway.)

I hadn't heard anything of it before that. Upon talking to my grandmother, the conversation went something like this: "Well, she's been faxing you," she said.

"If she's been faxing me, she's going to have a problem, since I don't have a fax machine," I replied.

"Oh, not faxing. Texting?"

"I don't have texting on my phone." I know. Odd, but true.

Well, I started searching the house. When I opened the garage door, I was hit with it like a brick wall. Dear God that garage wreaked! I opened the overhead and went out there to find a large puddle of gas under my bike and running out of the garage. It was pouring out of my bike and I can't tell where from. I hit the shut of valve and pulled it out to sit.

Oh, no! :scared: I know nothing of motorcycles, but I'm guessing that's not a good thing. :blink:

Well, perhaps. I left the bike out to dry out. I just went out and turned the valve back on and I am not finding a leak anywhere. :blink: I am going to let it sit for a little bit to see.

In the meantime, a former officer of mine (he took a job way beneath him just to get his foot in the door and is now the Safety Coordinator for the entire hospital) is leaving for vacation. He called and wants to borrow some scuba gear. So, I am hoping the leak is done so I can ride it. It is about an hour to his town.

Speaking of things that could potentially explode, 6-yr-old Crafty made the mistake of asking why fireworks come in different colors. Mr. Crafty is showing them using different metals and elements and a torch.

I hate it because it is kind of cool. Curse him and his witchcraft science.

Just checking in again; went for a sweaty 3 mile run this morning but I don't feel like as much of a sloth, now. Vacation or not, all the shrimp and beer will catch up with me. Also: coffee consumption is down, as it's not only hot, but I can nap a little too.

Everyone should have a job in which they can enjoy a 90 minute nap right after lunch. I do this once in a while if I am just too tired to drive.

Just don't light a match to see better. :lol:


Actually you were lucky nothing ignited, while turning on a light switch or opening the garage door if it has an electric opener. Another good reason NOT to have a water heater in a garage. I never understood this when I lived in SC. A gasoline leak like that near a pilot light has started many fires.

That is a justified concern. Both my furnace and water heater are in there. That was actually what I was worried about.

So do you think this is a self healing leak? My guess would be the carburetor, but I haven't looked at one in a decade or two.

[OldSaw]

That is a justified concern. Both my furnace and water heater are in there. That was actually what I was worried about.

I thought you lived far enough north not to worry about such sillyness in the garage. Those things belong in the basement.

Do people also take their water heaters with them when they move? That's another one I never understood in SC. I mean come on, it's plumbed in to the system, it belongs with the house. But according to SC real estate law (over 20 year old reference here) unless it is written in the purchase agreement the previous owner gets to keep the water heater.

What kind of person does this? They aren't that expensive and your new house probably already has one. If you're building, wouldn't you want a new one there as well?

You know, this is something I have learned. Some of the most successful fighters I have come in contact with are the ones that strip off all their clothes to fight. As you can imagine, if a 250 Lb black woman strips down naked, stomps out of her room with pendulums flailing, heading for you while yelling, "Oh yeah, you want some of this don't you!", you become very hesitant to make a stand and get into a fight. Heck, you have my respect if you don't run away screaming like a school girl!

And yes, it is equally effective for men as it is for women. If you want to go for the full effect, spread some fecal matter, blood, or urine on you before battle. That really intensifies the horror. :eek:

Yesterday was a long grueling day and the air conditioner fan went out in the truck. I thought I was going to pass out from heat exhaustion and Mrs. Oldsaw looked like she was going to die. My dispatcher said it could wait until I was unloaded to get repaired, and that won't be until late tonight.

I wasn't waiting. I called maintenance and removed the defective fan myself and then drove to the nearest Freightliner dealer, which was on our route, and got the new fan. It took longer to do the paperwork than to install it. We're happy again.

Well, I'm back again after a long absence. I know you're all dying to hear what's going on with MG, so I'll tell you. Essentially there has been a mutual loss of interest. MG hasn't really been all that eager to make contact with me, and I've been preoccupied with MG's competition who, it must be said, is doing a much better job competing than MG is. Oh, and you'll all be pleased to know that I've actually already taken MG's competition on a couple of dates, so you won't even need to big brother me on that one!

Somehow, speaking of things that are burned in my memory makes me think of this.

My first fight at the hospital was a woman that was bigger than me. I little taller and much stockier. We had locked her in the room and I had to open the door for the nurse to ask her a question. At that moment, I learned a valuable lesson. Never open a door without your foot in front of you to act as a door stop. As I went to shut the door, she stopped it dead and stuck her head out and looked right at me. I swear to God, she said, "Come on, Bitch!" Next thing I knew, the door was thrown open, slamming me against the wall. Like I said, I was new, had no training, and was not at all prepared. She came flying out of that room and seemed as pleased to beat me up as she was to get away. I dodged the first swing. The second I blocked and began to follow through when it hit me, I can't do this here. You are not allowed to "take out" patients. Fortunately, staff saw it go down and helped me out. They laughed because they saw my fist ball up and begin to strike. They thought, uh oh! Then I stopped and didn't know what to do. :lol:

I learned a lot from that incident. It made me realize what my objectives were. I knew I had to work on situational awareness, being prepared, and having a contingency plan. But the thing I remember the most was that woman's (?) face when she said that. I laugh about it now and have seen it a million times. But, at the moment, it scared the crap out of me. If everyone has a devil inside, I could see hers plain as day. I had never seen that kind of possessed look before. There is a strange combination of focus but lost at sea, power and powerlessness, rage and calm, purpose and confusion. Those of you that have seen it know what I am talking about. Like I said, I have seen it a million times. Yet, her face is one I will never forget. :lol:

So, today you have gotten yet another very, very unwanted glimpse into my world. :biggrin:

[blackfoot]

I'm just trying to figure out WHY people are thinking I'm older than I really am.

This is a trait of my family, and I had it too. From upper teens, we were guessed to be in our mid twenties. At taht time, you want to be. After you pass the mid twenties, everyone guesses you to still be in your mid twenties. At this point, this is what you want. :thumbup:

I am just getting to the point that people are guessing me to be in my upper twenties. My mom just recently had a person she knows pretty well and for a while tell her they were the same age. My mom is 20+ years older than her. :001_rolle

So, hope you have the same thing we do. I figure, if I let my hair grow out again, people will be way off again because I look nearly ten years younger with longer hair. :thumbup1:

My sister and I look younger than we are. She had braces for a while, so that didn't help. People would go up to her, who is married with 3 kids, mind you, and say, "Can you tell your parents ____?"

Being a bit snarky, she just says, "Yeah, I'll get right on that."

A few weeks ago, a man doing a power usage survey came to the door, started to give his spiel, then stopped and looked at me. He then asked to speak to my parents. :laugh: I told him that I *am* the parent. He was nice and flustered. Hilarious.

No, no it wouldn't. :001_cool:


My sister and I look younger than we are. She had braces for a while, so that didn't help. People would go up to her, who is married with 3 kids, mind you, and say, "Can you tell your parents ____?"

Being a bit snarky, she just says, "Yeah, I'll get right on that."

A few weeks ago, a man doing a power usage survey came to the door, started to give his spiel, then stopped and looked at me. He then asked to speak to my parents. :laugh: I told him that I *am* the parent. He was nice and flustered. Hilarious.

Since this tends to run in the family, things get amusing. For example, I have been with my Aunt and we were asked if we were married. I was a teenager at the time. :lol:

[OldSaw]

@Rob & Blake..... maybe it's a borked clutch cable? :tongue:

More likely a throttle cable.... but this whole cable talk brings back memories from poor little Cory's fabled Canada trip.

[OldSaw]

Because it's fun. Seriously, I have only seen this in foreclosure situations.

I suppose that makes the most sense where it would occur. Not that it is worth the effort, but it probably made someone feel like they got one over on the bank.

[OldSaw]

I'm just trying to figure out WHY people are thinking I'm older than I really am.

Might have more to do with your overall appearance and behavior than anything. I think it is mostly the things that are missing, like: no backward hat or visor, no long hair, no teenage/gross looking chin whiskers or lip caterpillar, no T-shirt with offensive crap on it, no pants falling down or underwear hanging out, etc... all of which probably translates into the way you carry yourself.

[OldSaw]

Maybe it's because you're spending too much time hanging around with us old people. :w00t:


:wheelchair:

FTFY :lol:

[OldSaw]

So who is caught up now?

[OldSaw]

Speaking of now, what a difficult concept. While we only live and operate in "now," we can only describe things in the past or the future. The instant we say now it is already behind us in the past. This could make Blake's head spin for a while.

Well, I am proud of myself. I was able to get the rear brakes replaced on my motorcycle. It was a little bit more involved than I originally realized. But, it wasn't difficult and seem to work great. I have to do the front, but am saving that for another day. I am going to have lunch with my lovely bride and then go for a ride with a friend. We are riding to a nearby town that has motorcycle salvage shop that specializes in old Jap bikes. I want to get highway bars for mine. :thumbup1: Shh, don't tell Mrs. Blackfoot. :biggrin:

[soapbox]

Maybe it's because your spending too much time hanging around with us old people. :w00t:

+1 -- and those of us who aren't necessarily old are cranky.

Was that the sound of whip cracking we all just heard? :lol:

Nope, just the handcuffs being attached to his ankle.

Good afternoon all. I'm happy to report that I've not been eaten. Given this fact, seeing a grizzly and her two cubs from 20 feet away on the trail is a rather fantastic experience (and one I only hope to have once).

All is well at the Vegas Summit. Several measures have been discussed and laws enacted. I've just come from the Fuente Cigar bar at Ceasar's Forum and a nice cigar with strong french press coffee. :drool:

That is all.

Blake, I'll need that security report... ah hell with it. I'm on vacation. Just deal with it yourself.

Got it covered boss. :thumbup1:

Well, I rode to my friend's shop in Fort Wayne. We rode down to Decatur to A&D Motorcycle Salvage. He didn't have what we wanted but I did find this leather thing that lays lengthwise on the tank and had two pockets on it. I wanted something like this to put my cell phone in and receipts from gas.I asked him what it was for and he had no idea. He said if I could make it work, I could have it for $10. So, that was sweet, and yes, I was able to make it work. :thumbup1:

We left there and stopped at a place called Arnold's. It is a classic 50's style drive up diner with carhops in roller skates and short skirts. The skates even had the big poofy ball on the toes. I had the best Malt ever. :drool:

Now, I am home. I am sweaty and dirty and should lay down for a nap before work. Yet, I have an overwhelming urge to go out and try to replace the front brakes.:001_cool:

[gollum83]

You could have done without? How do you think I feel? I have hundreds of these images that no amount of eye bleach will ever be able to erase. :crying:

That's better than having your mother mistaken for your wife and your younger brother for your son. Seriously it happened back when I was high school, we went to a restaurant and my dad was out parking the car and I was talking to my brother and the hostess remarked something to the effect of how lucky my mother was to have such a great husband, who was such a great father because I was actively talking to my son, which immediately put an end to the conversation my brother and I were having. Honestly, I don't know who was more disgusted, me or my brother, but my mom got a good laugh out of it. http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs32/f/2008/213/0/9/_shudder__Emoticon_by_Dan14Lev.gif

Yeah, I had encounter like that a few years back with a black bear. Of course, mine was alone, probably a young male, and 50 feet away, but still. It was kind of funny actually, he popped out onto the trail ahead of me, stopped, looked at me, got up on his hind legs, and kind of cocked his head off to one side as if he was wondering what the heck I was doing in the middle of the wilderness by myself. :laugh:

No, no, no... it wasn't anything like that. No, you can actually get a pretty a pretty decent idea from the shape of their skull even with how young this one appeared. Females tend to have a more slender, long-pointed head than the males. Then again, maybe even that was too close, but it wasn't like I was like, "Cool! A bear! Maybe I should get closer!" I mean the minute he came out in front of me, I stopped immediately, made myself appear a little bigger and got ready to back up slowly if needed. I mean, heck, I even started talking to the darn thing they suggest you should if you ever encounter one. Might have even been the reason why he started looking at me like I was nuts. I mean it's not everyday a bear encounters a human saying "Hey there fella, I'm just as surprised as you are. Why don't I wait here, let you keep going your way..." :lol1:

[soapbuddy]

I almost got a bear in my tent while camping once. But I don't know if it was a girl bear or a boy bear and I wasn't about to find out. Scared the daylights out of me!

Actually that just shows what I was getting at. I was number 1 5 of the first 10 weeks and things only fell apart when I forgot to make serious substitutions. Sir Chadwick of the Pigskin did in fact place #1 the last 7 weeks in a row but 3 of those were when I (and others) made substitution errors.

OK, update from the Vegas Summit.... aka... killing some time before the next thing....


You'll all be happy to know that d-bag chique is alive and well in Vegas. I have shed not one tear (tho have laughed my arse off) over the "poor emo kids" running around in 108 degree weather in knit winter hats (yes really) and hoodies (yes really). Dumb arses!

Speaking of d-bags, earlier today, I witnessed two such (non-emo, but college age, however), being hauled out of one of the fountains at Cesar's Forum today. Apparently they thought it'd be a good idea to take a swim, I'm guessing. As I arrived on the scene both were being hauled off in cuffs by the local constabulary... one in just his boxers, and the other nekkid. I wanted to ask if he was related to Blake, but decided not to interfere with the legal system at that point.

Oh, and Blake, next time you're tempted to think that your job stinks, have a thought for the local mall security guards here. They get to wear the same bumble bee uniforms (yellow polo and black shorts) as the local bike cops, but apparently their duties are much different. Today at the mall, some woman at lunch spilled her drink on the floor... security had to stand there and watch as the mess was cleaned up (I guess to ward others away? Or are sanitation engineers the targets of clean up related violence?). He appeared to be contemplating the multiple uses of pepper spray for much of the time.

Oh, and Blake, manpris and extra long shorts seem to be the norm out here.... yeah really. But, I have yet to see anyone in chaps. You may wish to file that for future use.

Tickets to Jersey Boys tomorrow night.

And, that's your update for now.

Um.... "thanks" doesn't seem to quite cover my emotions at this point. :eek:

Oh, one more quick addendum... went into the local AOS on a lark to sniff their lemon soap. Smelled mostly tallow. Tried the lemon EDT, very bland and "pledge" smelling. The older woman (late mid-age), who was very polite, launches into her spiel about what do I shave with, do I have any problems, etc.....

Well, not one to pass up an opportunity like that , I launch into my spiel on DE razors, hard soaps, etc. etc. etc. Deer in headlights was her reaction. Priceless. When sufficiently recovered, she recommends the AOS "system" to me along with the latest torture device from Gillette. Again, all very polite. I tell her that I"m getting great shaves just as it is. She says, but "AOS way" is much faster. I say, why rush? I enjoy shaving. Well, now she's convinced that I'm totally looney and wanders off to help someone else. Priceless.

Good evening, ladies and gents. Today was a good day to be Crafty. Nice sale at the local sewing shop. And then, it got a little less good to be Crafty when a neighbor asked me to teach her to use her sewing machine. I took it out of the package...and it was not good. I had to inform her that this machine will not do what she wants. Oh, well.

His name is Darwin. :001_smile
114831 114832


Isn't he beautiful? :001_wub:

Why did Darwin arrive in a coffin? No, I kid. It is very lovely and certainly drool-worthy.


I almost got a bear in my tent while camping once. But I don't know if it was a girl bear or a boy bear and I wasn't about to find out. Scared the daylights out of me!

Congrats! You get the George Takaei post of the day! Oh, my...


Good luck! :2guns:

Oh, goodness. Blake has gone 007 again.


OK, update from the Vegas Summit.... aka... killing some time before the next thing....


You'll all be happy to know that d-bag chique is alive and well in Vegas. I have shed not one tear (tho have laughed my arse off) over the "poor emo kids" running around in 108 degree weather in knit winter hats (yes really) and hoodies (yes really). Dumb arses!

Speaking of d-bags, earlier today, I witnessed two such (non-emo, but college age, however), being hauled out of one of the fountains at Cesar's Forum today. Apparently they thought it'd be a good idea to take a swim, I'm guessing. As I arrived on the scene both were being hauled off in cuffs by the local constabulary... one in just his boxers, and the other nekkid. I wanted to ask if he was related to Blake, but decided not to interfere with the legal system at that point.

Oh, and Blake, next time you're tempted to think that your job stinks, have a thought for the local mall security guards here. They get to wear the same bumble bee uniforms (yellow polo and black shorts) as the local bike cops, but apparently their duties are much different. Today at the mall, some woman at lunch spilled her drink on the floor... security had to stand there and watch as the mess was cleaned up (I guess to ward others away? Or are sanitation engineers the targets of clean up related violence?). He appeared to be contemplating the multiple uses of pepper spray for much of the time.

Oh, and Blake, manpris and extra long shorts seem to be the norm out here.... yeah really. But, I have yet to see anyone in chaps. You may wish to file that for future use.

Tickets to Jersey Boys tomorrow night.

And, that's your update for now.

:lol::lol::lol: Awesome story.



Oh, one more quick addendum... went into the local AOS on a lark to sniff their lemon soap. Smelled mostly tallow. Tried the lemon EDT, very bland and "pledge" smelling. The older woman (late mid-age), who was very polite, launches into her spiel about what do I shave with, do I have any problems, etc.....

Well, not one to pass up an opportunity like that , I launch into my spiel on DE razors, hard soaps, etc. etc. etc. Deer in headlights was her reaction. Priceless. When sufficiently recovered, she recommends the AOS "system" to me along with the latest torture device from Gillette. Again, all very polite. I tell her that I"m getting great shaves just as it is. She says, but "AOS way" is much faster. I say, why rush? I enjoy shaving. Well, now she's convinced that I'm totally looney and wanders off to help someone else. Priceless.

Nice. You make we want to go to Teavana and "discuss" tea with them. Of course, the "discussing" would be me educating them on all their tea failures, misconceptions, and outright untruths. I have yet to do that, but I really, really want to. :biggrin1:

[SRock]

Good evening, ladies and gents. Today was a good day to be Crafty. Nice sale at the local sewing shop. And then, it got a little less good to be Crafty when a neighbor asked me to teach her to use her sewing machine. I took it out of the package...and it was not good. I had to inform her that this machine will not do what she wants. Oh, well.



You're welcome. :biggrin1:

As luck would have it, there is a Teavana next door to AOS. However, my "education" on tea consists in how to dunk a tea bag in a mug of hot water. Which, now that I think about it, was the impetus behind one of my previous custom titles.

(I really should have kept track of all my custom titles and put them on my wiki page. sigh.)

OR at least multi-reality.


@Chuck et al., there's a Brazilian BBQ place across the street at the Mirage. Just came from there for dinner. $40 all you can eat of every type of animal. :drool: I am so stuffed it's beyond belief, but boy was it goooooooooooooood. The caiperinha was one of the best I've every had... perfect balance of ingredients and very very smooth.

And you don't rock the leopard print man thong either (thank God). Oh, and BTW, I've spotted only two pairs of crocs out here and they were both on older folks. So, I guess something is going right around Vegas these days.

[OldSaw]

I better not comment on that one. :lol:



And I know I better not comment on that one! :w00t::lol:



Got it covered boss. :thumbup1:

Well, I rode to my friend's shop in Fort Wayne. We rode down to Decatur to A&D Motorcycle Salvage. He didn't have what we wanted but I did find this leather thing that lays lengthwise on the tank and had two pockets on it. I wanted something like this to put my cell phone in and receipts from gas.I asked him what it was for and he had no idea. He said if I could make it work, I could have it for $10. So, that was sweet, and yes, I was able to make it work. :thumbup1:

We left there and stopped at a place called Arnold's. It is a classic 50's style drive up diner with carhops in roller skates and short skirts. The skates even had the big poofy ball on the toes. I had the best Malt ever. :drool:

Now, I am home. I am sweaty and dirty and should lay down for a nap before work. Yet, I have an overwhelming urge to go out and try to replace the front brakes.:001_cool:

So where is this Arnold's? Decatur, IN?

[SRock]

:lol: and :thumbup1:

[OldSaw]

No, no, no... it wasn't anything like that. No, you can actually get a pretty a pretty decent idea from the shape of their skull even with how young this one appeared. Females tend to have a more slender, long-pointed head than the males. Then again, maybe even that was too close, but it wasn't like I was like, "Cool! A bear! Maybe I should get closer!" I mean the minute he came out in front of me, I stopped immediately, made myself appear a little bigger and got ready to back up slowly if needed. I mean, heck, I even started talking to the darn thing they suggest you should if you ever encounter one. Might have even been the reason why he started looking at me like I was nuts. I mean it's not everyday a bear encounters a human saying "Hey there fella, I'm just as surprised as you are. Why don't I wait here, let you keep going your way..." :lol1:

Had one pass by me within 10 yards while deer hunting with my son, who was about 6 at the time. Scared the crap out of me and my son never even saw him from the stand I had him in just a little way back from the edge of the hill. I had an arrow nocked just in case.

[OldSaw]

Me too, and I just got to work for the day...

Short night last night, and another one tonight. Going to a night cowboy action shoot...

No wonder why you're having trouble catching up.

[RichGem]

With a dangerous heat wave hovering over the midwest, the National Weather Service issued a heat advisory. During this heat wave Mrs. Oldsaw and I decided to get some groceries at a Wal-Mart in St. Louis. While there, in walks this teenage kid wearing a T-shirt, shorts and a plaid bomber hat. These things are stinking hot in the dead of winter and the heat index was over 100!

I wore my crocs today and my feet are happy :001_smile


So what you are saying is we should co-manage a team and wrap this thing up this year!? :thumbup1: :lol::lol::lol:

Exactly :biggrin1:

I have a feeling the Blackfoot Braves will be the team to beat this year :w00t:

The caiperinha was one of the best I've every had... perfect balance of ingredients and very very smooth.

$40 for a hyena? I coulda just picked up a little ground hog for you in PA, some armadillo in TX or raccoon in WI, all of which can be fond resting quietly on the side of the road. Wouldn't have cost nearly as much.

[OldSaw]

Good night, John Boy.


Goodnight Ray. Wait, I'm not John Boy. :lol:

Nancy Boy?

Well, that's the rumor, anyway.

OK, well maybe not every animal. But, I did have: chicken, 2 kinds of beef, lamb, sausage, turkey (wrapped in bacon), and some very tender pork.


Nancy Boy?

Ooooh. :spockflam Good one. Messin' with the mods. :lol:


Well, that's the rumor, anyway.

I think it's true, not just rumor.

+1. Although, I wore Reeboks yesterday, so I guess it balances out. My Crocs are for ease/comfort, chasing my ankle biters around on a terrazzo (read: HARD) floor.

Yep, Decatur, IN. It is at the southern junction of US224 and 37, I believe. On the east side of the road.


I have a feeling the Blackfoot Braves will be the team to beat this year :w00t:

ITRW, yes. You do realize, I did not watch my first football game until I was 19. Even then, it has only been in the last few years that I have followed it at all. And that has been very half-hearted. I don't usually get too rapt until towards the end of the season. That is half the point of doing this. It will force me to pay more attention this year.

I really don't know much about the players or anything. My choices will be the same as putting a map on the wall and throwing darts at it to decide where to go. :lol:
