n_maher Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 Thanks. Just remember, but for those inept contractors, qualified engineers would have less work to do.Actually, they just create work for you when I get sued. It's pretty amazing no one was hurt and that significant damage wasn't done yesterday. It's been a bad week for contractors so far, today was another doozy. what if it had a beam in the middle, and it was really well balanced?You are not the first to propose the "teeter totter" solution. Unfortunately that is not a code-approved approach nor can I use good engineering judgment to justify it.
MASantos Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 I've been studying air trafic control stuff all day for the big exam on monday! I also made 11 pounds of organic tomatoe jam!
Voltron Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Tomatoe jam does not sound appealing, with or with the "e". What is that Manuel?
MASantos Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Tomatoe jam does not sound appealing, with or with the "e". What is that Manuel? It's Tomato... (need to practice my english, making this kind of mistakes makes me mad...) It's just like any other jam, ingredients are tomatoes, sugar, and one lemon sliced in half(it releases the citric acid during boiling which increases conservation) It is really good on toasts and tastes like jam, with tomato flavour. This weekend I'm baking an apple cake and then filling it with tomato jam! Let experimenting begin!
Voltron Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Nope, still doesn't sound good. But green tomato relish (basically pickled green tomatoes with onion) is kinda sweet so maybe it wouldn't be so bad. Don't beat yourself up, I can't say anything in Portuguese, except maybe "por exemplo"!

Don't beat yourself up, I can't say anything in Portuguese, except maybe "por exemplo"! ...pickled tomatoes don't sound apealing to me... Now I'm searching for homemade ketchup recipes. A neighbour brought me about 50 pounds of tomatoes I've got to do something with them before they rotten. ps: one more for you: Auscultadores [awʃkultɐ'dor] = headphones
Dusty Chalk Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Really, the accent is on the 3rd syllable? Laughing at/with Voltron about "nope still doesn't sound good". I'm trying to think of it without thinking of ketchup, and I can't. I think that's my problem. I bet it'd be really good as a ketchup replacement -- I have a sweet tooth.
Sherwood Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 I got drunk with both my wife and the girl my family wanted me to marry tonight.
Sherwood Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Suffice it to say that the girl I was intended to marry is skinnier, and I will never hear the end of that.
Quadrangulum Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 I've been ripping my CDs to my computer over the past four days. I'll probably be done tomorrow.
cetoole Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Finished modding a Denon 2900, then arky-sparky'd said Denon (new output stage v- accidentally tied to case ground), just finished giving it a smoke recharge and all seems to be good in the world.
penger Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Setup and listened to the ECD-1 I picked up and 1. wishing that my beta was done and 2. wishing that I had another DAC to compare it to.
Sherwood Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 wishing that I had another DAC to compare it to.
penger Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 I'm even following in his footsteps with the ECD-1.
Nebby Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Went to the 20th Nango Summer Jazz Festival. The music and food were quite good
laxx Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Got pretty twisted at a friend's restaurant last night, celebrating my birthday a few days early. Got home at 2, woke up at 4:30... Just got back from the gym. I hate that I can't sleep for shit after I drink.
n_maher Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Packed up my entire rig and drove down to Stretch's house for a little mini meet.
spritzer Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 We are throwing a friend his bachelor party today. We started off abducting him from home, dress him up in silly clothes and then made him stand on the middle of a round-a-bout with a sign saying "honk if I'm hot!" Then we had some brunch and went out to sea to try some fishing. I had to go to work for a short while but now I'm sitting at home trying to get drunk before the dinner tonight.
DefectiveAudioComponent Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 I'm making a new set of earpads for my headcans today. Planning a boat trip as well. Got to get some sun on me.
Looser101 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Packed up my entire rig and drove down to Stretch's house for a little mini meet. Don't forget the camera.
n_maher Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Don't forget the camera. No worries there, many pics taken - there's 8 of us here and no shortage of gear.
grawk Posted July 25, 2009 Report Posted July 25, 2009 Did a ropes course with my kid's hockey team. Successfully did the zip line. Failed at the 35 ft wall. Was a good day.
