The Anything Thread

The way I look at it, anything that doesn't kill you is a great story later on. :biggrin:

:biggrin: Definitely. Just finished replacing the glass. Bought the last three doors for the great interior door replacement I'm undertaking. 70's-era builder grade slab doors, begone! Really makes the house look less dated, which is nice since it'll be on the market soon. Wish I would've replaced the doors sooner, though.

How'd the kayak gunshot wound repair turn out?

It looks pretty good to me. Mrs. Blackfoot wants me to try and add more from the inside. It probably isn't a bad idea, but it is not going to be easy to reach up in there.

On the market soon? Is the market all that good down there?

Glad to hear it. Yeah, it's pretty much suck if an errant rock knocked the weld loose. Batter safe than sorry, I figure. You need an extra long syringe or something! :biggrin:

Sadly, no, though things do seem to have leveled off. Fortunately, we got in about a year before prices hit their peak, so we'll pretty well break even, which is better than many folks can say these days. Would've been better than that, were it not for the foreclosure two doors down. :mad:

just had my first MWF shave....good stuff!
I don't see what the lathering problem other folkses are having with it...I used the B&B Essential, mine's a fairly stiff brush, I know a lot of folks were saying theirs was floppy, but mine is a lot more backbone that my other badgers.
anyway, great shave!

Yeah... I traded my MWF to someone. It worked but didn't impress me. Ever sense then I have been wanting some back. May yet put an order in for more. However, I already have years worth of soaps that I may never get through as it is...

I just got home after going out with co-workers. Most of them were no-shows so it was just me and one other for a couple of hours. Now my wife is teasing me about being out on a date. Oh well, at least she is taking it good natured.

Oh and good luck on your test!

Did you take a course before the exam or just try to memorize some books?

I did the A+ exam about four years(?) ago, before they changed it anyway. The software exam was easy, I scored about 90%, but the hardware exam kind of sucked... I memorized the clock speed, core voltage, pin count, etc. etc., for literally every CPU since the ENIAC and they still managed to stump me on a few. One of the questions was even "what's the safest place to store your laptop when you're away from your desk?" Argh... Still, it's fun to whip the card out every now and then and I'm proud of achieving that goal.

I've got some books, actually going through a LearnKey test prep course. I feel pretty confident, but, as I said before, 10+ years of no tests has me a little anxious.
Almost everything the material has covered I'm familiar with and can do, but using the "official" terms is what will probably get me.

Just think of it as a project with a short deadline instead of a test. One thing you have going for you is that it's multiple choice. :wink:

I picked up a lot of mnemonic devices to remember things. For the seven layers of the OSI model it's Application, Presentation, Session, Transport, Network, Datalink, Physical. I can tell you what someone told me to help remember it, but it's bad enough that I'd have to PM you with it. It did stick though, five years and I still haven't forgotten. :lol:

For laser printers it's clean, charge, write, develop, transfer, fuse. Or "careful computer weenies don't trade files".

PCMCIA... people can't memorize computer industry acronyms. No, wait, that's not right.

Well, you get the idea.

Jim, sounds to me like any exam called A+ comes pre-scored. You should do great! What's your success on the exam a precursor to (other than, of course, world domination...)?

Did you put too much laundry detergent in the washing machine?

A nice national anthem or ode from the MCP would lighten the mood.

I have something. It's amazing how much free time one has while in the clink! May I present "An Ode to Czar Richard Upon His 15th Day of Rule":

Oh our Czar is a czar,
A mighty, mighty czar,
His head is shaped like a jar,
An his minions hold meetings in a bar,
He's sort of bizarre,
That's our Czar!


He is a national champion winning debate coach in the real world, and would be perfectly suited to deal with the wonderful, and most awesome political prisoner that we are holding in the wonderful city of Detroit.

I told her that I just felt like having cheddar cheese and I was glad I thought of it.

Alright -- lowest test score ever. (Zeros for failing to show up don't count). Mine -- a 23/100. Organic chemistry, sophomore year undergrad. It's the reason I always return tests to students at the end of class - I don't remember a darn thing that was said in the classroom that day after the test was returned at the beginning of class. (Not a big loss, considering I apparently only remembered 23% of what was said prior to that day. :biggrin:)

Oh, I can beat that so easily.... 9/100 in Finite Mathematics.

I don't know what happened to me in that course but I could not learn the material. I did well on the first two tests (100% & 90%), but the last two got progressively worse. Anyway, there was an error on the midterm that made one of the questions impossible to answer so the teacher gave us a second drop test. Since there were only four tests in the entire term, my average test score skyrocketed to 95%. On the final test, which I did try my best to do well on but knew I hadn't, I wrote in big letters "I have failed this test". :biggrin:

We had a rough last week, as my little 1-year-old girl had the Flu -- as in, "likely the H1N1 flu" since her doc said there are no/few other active flu strains at present. As happens to little ones, she picked it up at daycare. Yikes. Her symptoms were thankfully mild and though she's still dealing with a cough & runny nose (and, to add insult to injury, cutting her top two incisors), she's clearly much better, and her spirit is undimmed.

I was sick, too, but mainly a sinus infection and a little low-grade bronchitis.

Neither of us are contagious anymore, for sure. :smile:

Well it's nice to know that everyone is okay. Flu is never a good thing especially when you're that young. Bronchitis can definitely be nasty too. I've been hospitalized a couple times back in my younger days thanks to a few bouts of acute bronchitis.

Also, both produce long staple. Gossypium hirsutum grows pretty much everywhere. Gossypium barbadense is the good stuff; producing fibers long enough to spin Egyptian Cotton, linen, lace, and the sort. It also smells better in the field because of the giant yellow flowers.

Happy 3rd of July!

Surely you mean Happy 4th of July, one day early?

[GardenWeasel]

I'm happy it's the 3rd - with it being a Federal Holiday! :thumbup:Happy 3rd!! (or happy 4th - one day early too!):a21:

Wow, that is so cool. I had no idea that I could do that! :w00t:

Shoot, I'm only #24 all time, as of this post. Only 184 posts. :frown:

Blackfoot has 674! No wonder he's managed to post over 5,000 posts since joining! :eek2:

Yeah, I thought most post offices were open until 12 noon today myself.

[GardenWeasel]

Post office is just too dedicated! I'm off ALL day and still celebrating! :jump::jump:

[sol92258]

I just checked, and I have 222 posts in this thread (now 223). And, I am only #22 on the posting list for this thread. Sol has over 1,500 posts here I think. That's nearly as many as my total post count. :biggrin:
*flexes*


Sol has been on tour and would have 3000 posts here otherwise.

about to shower and shave, go to Shreveport and do some bowling and watch Transformers 2, walk the riverwalk...anybody nearby come and join us!

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

Woo hoo... as written above, yes the post office is open and I got a straight back from the honemeister.

Wife's work is weird.. they get Monday off.

[GardenWeasel]

Monday off would be nice! No delivery here from post office...

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

Monday would be nice; except a lot of the 4th activities are today. Looks like thunderstorms in forecast for tomorrow. So I guess we will have to do 4th of July stuff while wife is at work if we are to get anything in.

[GardenWeasel]

LOL! Always good to annoy the neighbors with firecrackers....the day before!!

[GardenWeasel]

Geez - I just went from "bald face baron" to the "top toggle"!

[soapbuddy]

A little early, but I wanted to wish you all a http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/soapbuddy/Avatars/4th4.gif

[GardenWeasel]

..and a Happy 4th to you and yours too!

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

While the bandwagon is rolling...

Happy 4th!

[Dubbya]

Oh, I can beat that so easily.... 9/100 in Finite Mathematics.


I took number theory and got a 3% on the first of two exams. Luckily for me, that exam came back two days before the drop date for classes. I went straight from the math building to the registrars office and had an extra long break for lunch for the rest of the semester.

So, it's like a Kiss concert?

:biggrin:

Something like that, only Paul Stanley is missing.:biggrin:


other than using fingers and toes, how do I find my post numbers/quantity? TIA

Abacus.:tongue:


I've known Jim for close to a couple of years now from B&B, and that "Silky Sol" just caught me off guard. I'm laughing again just thinking about it.

That was a good one. Almost custom title material.

Just pick up somewhere in the middle and reply to something. It'll turn the tide of conversation completely.

I was present. I met with a client in the boss's office(It's way nicer than my cube) and checked out for a few hours a la Office Space.

You never will. I got back an hour and a half ago. It took a while to read through the week's activity on this thread. I will save the rest for tomorrow.

I didn't know about checking the stats either. How did I get to second place? Do I really post spam that much?

[Gruder]

Welcome back Blake -- can't wait to hear about your trip!

Apartment hunting: complete.
Furniture shopping: in process.
Load one of boxes: moved into new office.
(I hate moving.)

Happy 4th everyone!

Back at ya. :biggrin: The trip was great! A few near death experinces and a lot of fun. Oddly, the crazy stuff seems like the most entertaining. There was the horrible storm, hypothermia, sinking speedboat, poisonous snake, and trail blazing adventure. Otherwise, it was beautiful. :thumbup:

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

Happy actual 4th everyone!

[GardenWeasel]
