  1. My mom used to make a pot of macaroni and sauteed onions. She then made a thin gravy using bacon drippings and poured it over the macaroni. Probably had less than 50 cents in the whole meal. I'll bet we ate that at least 3 times a month.
  2. My wife and I still do this from time to time. We are a long way from poor but some nights we just don't feel like doing much more than that. Another guilty pleasure is a pot of rice, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar with a splash of half and half.
  3. I machined the end of a bar clamp to make a rattle can shaker. IMG_2635.MOV
  4. If your hands are free, send me a text. I have my own shovel.
  5. Whooshed, yes. I doubt that is an aggy though. Smells like surly to me.
  6. And the round pupil, not always observable from a safe distance.
  7. Marshall would philosophically and politically align well with aggy. I am amazed how many Shocker fans still pine for the good old days of abusing players and choking assistants. He always said that he didn't intend to coach past his early Sixties, wanted to retire to a beach somewhere. As far as I know, he took his millions to leave and did just that.
  8. That picture was taken at the Tx St. forensic research site.
  9. Not snek, legs and whatnot. What is it?
  10. India is back in the lineup today. I haven't heard an official report of the damages but Q said it was non-concussive. If he is out for any length of time, the Royals offense will sputter even worse than they normally do. I fear that they would pencil him in regardless what the protocol says.
  11. I’m not the snake charmer Swayze is/was but I’m not scared of em.
  12. They are dark brown. If you have read the whole thread, you know I don’t mind getting close.
  13. Thanks, fuckers. I told the daughter that Surly would say Cottonmouth within 4 posts. Now I have to buy lunch.
  14. 1st snek of the year. It's about 6" long, give or take. DeKuy's Brown Snake is our guess. They are very common around here. What say you, Surly?
  15. I'm hopeful that Matt will have some success at SFA and be ready to come back to Wichita when the Paul Mills experiment ends.
  16. Apparently, she is Mennonite.
  17. A Shocker giving a Bear a "Hook'em" doesn't seem right but here we are.
  18. I have been there when they were blasting but it wasn't nearly that close. I wasn't calling you out for being claustrophobic. Some family members have it and it isn't a joking matter.
  19. A company that does wire EDM work for us has their factory in that complex. I always found it to be more fascinating than frightening. YMMV
  20. I don't see any apple cider donuts in your pictures. My SisIL was the principal at Elliot, ME Elementary for a number of years. They tapped all of the Maples around the school and made/sold syrup to fund school projects. I made sure to order early to get a couple small bottles of it. Good stuff.
  21. I have 2 coveys. One in the front acre. One in the back. Both get fed every day. Hope they make it through the next couple of days. Supposed to be -10 in the morning. Windchills around -25. Should be fun.
  22. It’s 0 degrees with 25-30 mph winds here. TV says 5-8” of snow but it’s hard to know. I have a 3’ drift across my drive and can still see the grass in the front yard. IMG_2531.MOV
  23. I have a project at work that requires caveman technology because Amish. I have been looking for an old John Deere/WheelHorse/Eaton transmission for a couple of weeks using every network I can think of. I finally posted my search to a tractor/garden tractor forum that I use occasionally. Of course , the first several responses are suggesting that I look on craigslist, ebay and facebook. No shit? Thanks, I never woulda thought of that. I thought maybe asking a group of dedicated hobbyists might get it in front of a wider audience. It's a canadian website so I suppose they are just being goshdarned nice.
  24. Well done, @deft. It needed to be said.
  25. Exactly the same except it was a Farmall A with Cub Cadet rims so it would fit under the overhang.
