I played on a rocket just like that in St.Louis in the 80s. My dad would let me climb around the outside, my mom not as much.

Well, my friend who had a tree fall towards her car in a wind storm said “gun it and hope for the best”. It missed her by 6”.

This is my favourite sign, I’ve seen it in person at the north end of Vancouver Island. Up there you really do need to be prepared.

This is a very particular beer, but the “after hauling and securing a boat at 2am with your boss because you’re a tide dependent yard” beer. Those were my favourites.

Seriously though, anytime we had a haul outside of regular working hours we’d all go sit in the back after and have a beer or pop or whatever and shoot the shit. It was nice times.

I would do that, but called it Turkish coffee. Get it ground that way.

Diesel and Styx, AKA Dieselbub and The Prince of Darkness.

I would absolutely be on the lick things team. I use my mouth as a tool all the time.

This post sounds incredibly weird.

Absolutely this! I just lucked out on a secondhand Thinkpad E14 for $400. It’s basically the same as my X1 except I can add more ram if I want. My husband gave me the side eye when I grabbed it but I just said it’s only going to get worse, having a spare laptop is imperative. Which reminds me, I need to get some ram for it while I can…

I fluff mine every night, it’s part of the bedtime routine. Am I not supposed to be doing that? I like my pillows squishy, down, and always sleep with two. I usually sleep with flannel except like three months in summer when I switch to linen.

I used to sleep on my side but I tend to fall asleep better on my back now. With a squishy pillow it curves up around my head and supports it to either side.

Yes! I liked that aspect in both the books and the games.

That’s why I don’t do any of the quests in Skyrim that kills a giant or mammoth. They’re just doing their thing, won’t mess with you if you don’t mess with them or their stuff.

Finally found a good one! This is Diesel.

Is it a thing with orange cats to like to stretch out? My guy loves to sleep fully stretched out, like arms over head and feet way out behind him. I swear he’s like four feet long.

Yesssssss! I can still remember it.

What weird timing. My husband and I were just telling our daughter how there used to be so many different types of frozen juice and now there’s hardly any.

She knows, it’s what I use every day. The issue is we need a complete system now that we’ve grown from basically one and a half people to 5-6 all in different locations and use different OS’s. She’s very much supportive of open source but none of us are sysadmins…. I struggle enough with my home server, I’m not risking my teams work. We might be able to make this plus a few other things work though. Also for some of our contracts and funding the govt has insisted on windows.

I’ve also been looking at this as an alternative! I need to make a proposal for my boss with our objectives and how the different options compare.

KEXP!

They are an actual radio station but you can stream it. They have an app too. Great way to find new music!

Thank you for posting this, your timing is impeccable. My work wants to go down the 360 road…

Oh it absolutely is! Congratulations on quitting smoking, one day I will join you.
