You're trying to eliminate career fields for sooners, aren't you?

Doesn't it mean something a bit deeper if your capacitor keeps blowing?

Tell me about the flow chart for a Family Pack.
We will be officially chartered today and have our first Pack meeting on Monday.
Sorry for the delay; had a busy couple of days & I had most of my image hosting on Photobucket & that went to shit in a handbag.
Hopefully this will load properly.

@Viper, that Grubmaster needs a kick in the shins.
Unless you're bringing your own cooler, I don't see what options you have other than Pemmican or other freeze dried stuff.

Somehow I ended up as recruiting chair for our cub scout pack. Spring JSN is coming up. Funny enough my daughter is in girl scouts and has negative interest in cub scouts despite it now being open to girls. Quoth my 3rd grader ahead our recent spring campout (to which I dragged her along) on the Friday before "all the boys I hate are excited about going." LOL
I've done 4 JSN's; 2 Fall / 2 Spring.
Spring is a great opportunity to line up possible leadership for the Lion & Tiger / Bobcat Dens (assuming you're a Lion enabled Pack) + get some Q & A out there for those who don't understand the flow chart for a "Family Pack".
Got any questions for me? One thing I did was get a large TV & plug it into a computer & run a looped slideshow of the activities our Scouts have done. Maybe you've got a lot of pics of YOUR Scout & that's great, but also ask for pics from other Scouting parents so it doesn't appear as though your kid is the only one in Scouts.

For the ATX, looks like Wednesday could have some fun again.
Currently projecting around 60% chance "with damaging hail".

Is this some kind of euphemism here?

If any of y'all are in that area from Hearne on past Jewett, Buffalo, etc. & need any repair or temporary waterproofing assistance, please let me know & I'll pass on a referral for a good friend who lives in that region.

How much to replace a sky light?
Sending a PM.

Ping pong ball sized? Yeah, that will cause damage. Quarter sized as well, especially if it has a good wind pushing it.
-
& FYI, I'm headed to Balcones Heights on either Tuesday or Wednesday & can easily plug in a couple of inspections for the greater San Antonio area should anyone want a review for hail damage.

Got some quarter size hail here in North north San Antonio. Plus some good rain. Will inspect the damage soon.
Look for what we call "soft tissue" damage to gutters (both downspouts as well as the actual gutter), exposed AC fins being smooshed (coffin type units with louvers won't show this but the kind with a large grate will allow hits through).
Trees having a lot of leaves knocked out (excessively in comparison to normal), possibly a cracked flower pot or fabric grill cover having tears, dots on your fence (especially if it is weathered into a grey-ish color). If you have a street mailbox, that can also have dents depending on the material & thickness.
Any dings in your car will also be an indicator.

@zork , I have zero idea where they live but will assume it is somewhere within the Dripping Springs community or maybe Oak Hill or possibly Wimberley / Blanco @ the furthest out. Spitballing there.
Don't think they grow their own, but it's possible.
Rental in a strip shopping center & have been there for quite some time... prob. 20 years is my guess (& by the looks of the faded cheap crap hanging on the walls, that's not too terribly far off). It's possible they sell whole pies, but I think their business model is based on the buffet.
& @Nice Guy Eddie, I have 2 kids under 15. It's an occasional thing that you can't avoid.
Anyhow, the basis for my question is on the economy of small vs. medium vs. large in their salad bar components.

Riddle me this:
Out here in Dripping Springs, we have this small buffet pizza place that does a decent job for the price charged. Salad bar, pizza, soda & soft serve all for $ 7.00 lunch. Quite a deal & the couple that own the place appear to be very hard working & industrious folks.
Their salad bar had me wondering, however. They put rather large leaf lettuce out, fairly large chunks of cucumber & carrot slices & their tomato is probably 1/6 of a large tomato vs. grape tomatoes or cutting the tomato into closer to a diced size.
For those with management or ownership experience in restaurants, what is the tradeoff on possibly all or some of these:
- Chopped lettuce that's maybe 1/2 the size of the current (or even shredded)
- Similar thickness cucumber & carrots, but quartered.
- Grape or chopped tomato.
Would the average customer be prone to adding more, the same or less to the salad if the portions were smaller? I imagine a place like Mr. Gatti's has done some kind of analysis to see what they should be placing on the salad bar & that's both for product as well as portion sizing.
I also recognize that there's a potential for added labor to offset any financial gains because there's more time required to prep in smaller sizes. I haven't ever looked into the kitchen to see what their methods are; use a banjo slicer, a food processor, all by hand with a knife, etc.
It's not as though I'm going to approach them with some kind of a CBA & show how they would save $$ __________ if they were to change their methods, but every time I go in there I wonder if they are spending more on product than they realize.Anyhowz, what's the Shag 2.0 consensus?

So what you're saying is that it's actually there but we can't actually see it because we're blinded due to all of the science?

So...basically what y’all are saying is that putting your shit in a storage unit is as good as leaving it on your front yard.
