  1. I learned early in life to not eat Yellow snow.
  2. After removing what seems like thousands of screws and body fairing pieces, I changed my voltage regulator on my bike.

    Kitty Talk

    My cat Elijah would grab cigarettes out of my friends mouth and eat them. He also loved coffee.
  4. Same in Alaska. Hurricane country is another ball game all together. What annoys me here is that not only do you need strapping from the foundation to the studs outside, it's also required to strap the studs to the plates inside. That makes for some wavy ass sheetrock, and is really just ridiculous. Exterior sheathing here (OSB is standard) is required to be nailed every 3 inches at the seams. Now I can kind of understand some engineer sitting at his desk thinking this will strengthen the shear walls, but you only need to visit one job site to understand that nailing OSB 3" apart completely disintegrates the integrity of the OSB. So it has absolutely the opposite effect.
  5. I notice a major lack of Simpson products, as compared to down here. Here you would see strapping on almost every other stud.
  6. I'm in no way repulsed by the male body, but someone needs to cover Ziggy up! Heroin chic requires clothing.
  7. RIP Mr Cohen.
  8. Have a stellar day, filled with science and bicycles!
  9. Have a fantastic Scotch, beer and friends filled day Mikey!
  10. Left work early. In a total funk today. Just didn't see this coming. Never thought I'd be embarrassed to be an American.
  11. Dyslexics will be having left over pudding, cake, turd and coffee.

    Fun Facts

    No, but I was listening to David Soul.
  13. I've always thought that was a terrible description of the HD 650. Even those that used the term "veiled" talk about the great resolution of the 650. Well, which is it? Veiled would tend to describe a sound that blocks certain dynamics, and I've never seen the 650 given negative marks for dynamics. I think the whole thing started when the 650 came out and was more bass oriented than the 600 predecessor. Some idiot described that as veiled, and it stuck. I happen to prefer the less bass oriented 580/600, but the 650 is an excellent pair of headphones that gives up nothing in dynamics as compared to the 580/600.
  14. Which was it Wayne? I'm ready to withhold biscuits if he made the wrong choice.
  15. Looks good, but are you eating it Left handed?
  16. I hate the L3000. To my ears they're bloated fart cannons on par with the Darth Beyers, but with the price tag of an electrostat.
  17. That looks very familiar Jim. In fact I just voted, and am pretty sure I'm the only one to vote Democrat here, as the "Trump" button was all shiny, but I had to use some WD-40 on the rusty "Hillary" button, to get it to work.
  18. "If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding. How can youhave any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"

    Fun Facts

    I had sum a them, but I had to get that P to S adapter cable to make 'em sound right.

    Fun Facts

    The largest airforce in the world is the US Airforce. The second largest airforce in the world is the US Navy. Redheads are more likely than others to be Left handed.
  21. I thought about seeing Hacksaw Ridge, until I saw who directed it.
  22. Gynaecomastia FTW!

    Animal lovers

    Someone else at the shelter called him to tip him off. I guess she wasn't very nice to the people there either. He wanted my statement and info in case she tried to dispute her termination. He was very sincere and seemed truly disheartened by her callous attitude.
  24. Please teach your Mexican "Bad Hombre" about good burgers!
