  1. This has been doing some sort of testing over my ranchette the last week. It has been doing some impressive climbs and high altitude work. From what little I have read it is to be a more modern Pilates P-12, slightly bigger and a more user friendly GE Conquest engine. Yesterday it was out and about with a SkyCourier. I suppose they were doing photo shoots at about 5000 ft according to Flightradar24. Interesting that only the Denali showed up on the app.
  2. It's about fucking time .
  3. I never wore my wedding ring regularly. When I got married, the place I worked didn't allow any jewelry to be worn during work. Even after I left that job I didn't wear it. When My dad passed away, the nursing home couldn't find his band so I put mine on his hand and buried it with him.
  4. More like his younger brother, but yeah.
  5. An IHC M1 is one of the few guns I would spend money on*. I'm happy for you. * I have plenty of firearms and have been giving them away to younger family members.
  6. Talent show at the Cucumber Festival could fill a few minutes of airtime.
  7. RollLeft beat me to it , but the only course of action is to shoot that fucking rodent.
  8. A Kraft single, maybe.
  9. Office manager forwarded this to me. New Employee: Can I put my girlfriend on the health insurance? OM: I think you can, but have to sign a form stating you are considered common law married and if you ever want to remove her from coverage, you will have to file for divorce. New Employee: Well, she’s not divorced from her husband yet.
  10. Yessir. Lots of fun to be had before the weekend starts.
  11. Yeah, I'm on my way out past WaKeeney for opening day of Pheasant season. You have folks in Grainfield, right?
  12. I just destroyed the restroom at Menard's in Salina, KS Not really a thought but I couldn't find the humblebrag thread.
  13. If it's all I have around then, yes, I'm using Kraft singles. @Steel Shank would be saddened by your intolerance. Enough of this detour. Doesn't anybody have some Holiday hate and discontent to share?
  14. A pic was already posted. How many different ways can a piece of cheese be draped on a slice of pie? It's really good. What's not to like?
  15. I can guarantee you that some Ioweegians do this. You got Mennonites, don't you? I wouldn't force it on anybody but don't tell me I can't have cheese on my pie.
  16. I don't have a functioning relationship with your mother. Mind if I have a go at beating his ass?
  17. Well, tie me to a monkey! (HT @MAUFRAIS) I've been around a looong time and never once did it occur to me to put cheezits in my soup and such. I feel shame and sadness.
  18. Without going to the net I’ll guess Webley. British big bore military from WWI
  19. Not sure why you'd ruin a perfectly good fork, but you do you.
  20. You have to remember that most of us Big 8 types have been hating OU for decades. We always rooted for UT to beat OU. Old habits die hard.
  21. One of our bigger Amish customers rolls tin and trim for metal-clad post frame buildings that they sell to the "English". As part of the process they have learned and been certified to do electrical and plumbing. Nothing funnier than watching a 12 yr old drive a self-propelled DitchWitch trencher up onto a horse drawn cart to go to the next job. Hutterites are interesting colonies. They actually embrace the tech, have phones and computers and are adept at programming PLCs and the like. The North Dakota colony that we deal with has smart phones and internet. I share files with them regularly. Like you said, they are pretty good at figuring out work arounds for just about anything that a job throws at them. Our Amish folks, on the other hand, had to get clearance from the deacons to allow us to use magnets on a stacker.
  22. Really? Dumb Joc
  23. Our company makes manufacturing equipment for the Amish and Hutterites throughout the Midwest. It's really strange to see what the Deacons for one clan will approve while the next settlement over won't go that far. Almost all of them are OK with a standalone internal combustion engine that will spin a main shaft for all of their belt-driven equipment.
  24. I see it a lot like that lady in the wicker basket dodging all of the swords that the dude in the Ali Baba outfit starts poking at her.
