ROFL BOX

If you're in the Central Texas area, I have a guy.

My wife scraped the passenger side of the '97 C-1500 (8 ft. bed). Hit the keypad for the gate @ her parents house. Zero clue how she managed that because she has come in & out of that same gate with the key[ad setup in place for over 10 years... there is a really nice slice in the bed (level with the keypad weather shield / mounting bracket thing) that runs around 12" long.

Circular ID call-outs not going away.

Last gasp on candles; yes, for cold weather power outages it's quite surprising how much heat they actually produce. When I had my townhouse, I could have like 7 or 8 of them rolling downstairs on a 50 degree night & the upstairs was quite comfortable. That said, with Snowpocalypse '21, we used my Milwaukee rocket lights (M12 & M18 versions). I had all of my batteries fully prepped & for the nights, we had plenty of light & a gas stovetop to work with. The only hassle was not having the fan running in the bedroom. Going to sleep with no white noise is freaky.

I'd post a pic of my tray, but [mention=2036]MissingInAction[/mention] already did that. I will wait on a green light from MIA before I post a pic of me, him & John Lewis. Also [& you know who you are], a lot of you assholes obviously owe LA (& Ali) a shitload of apologies. When John was fired from the South 1st operation, it was quite bloody & of course not having even a scant of information, the hate for LA was off the charts. Move forward a few years to the "Official Meat Purveyor" @ 6th & Pedernales & after the investors found out the truth (i.e. a pit was repo'd, bridges got burned), very few stepped up to admit they were wrong about how all of that went down for the schism between John & LeAnn. With what little resources available to me, I did my best to help John with the South 1st shop. It's like "Breaking Bad" where one small (bad) decision leads to another fork in the road & that leads to another bad one, etc. Nobody can read the tea leaves & of course hindsight 20/20, etc. to know what was coming for the next ~10 years of his life. Wherever he is, whatever he might be doing, hopefully John has found some respite & is enjoying peace (whatever that is for him).

Cannot post pics via Tapa, will have to go @ that from my computer later today. Did see @luke duke, John Lewis, Aaron F. & am hanging with MIA. No mushrooms were observed onsite. Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

If you're serious, maybe I'll pick you up somewhere in the area? Parking will prob. be a hassle... maybe @Judge Roybeanbag should drive vs. taking my truck. His skateboard sized car would be an easier one to park Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

I came here to mention this. Stopped in to L.A. today for some eats; we are doing a project not too far away from L.A.Q. (this job is actually on the Eastern end of the same block that JMMC was located on). Chatted briefly with Ali & she told me abt. this Sunday. There are black [emoji835] wreaths hanging in the front windows... those will come down later Sunday. 2401 East Cesar Chavez Corner of E.C.C. & Clara Any of y'all assholes going?

Those gutters need some help.

Interesting.

Ralph Macchio speaks Brazilian. "Wax on / Wax off".

To Fuck Around is interesting. To Find Out is divine. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-60050996 "Hana Horka, 57, was unvaccinated and had posted on social media that she was recovering after testing positive, but died two days later. Her son, Jan Rek, said she got infected on purpose when he and his father had the virus, so she could get a recovery pass to access certain venues." Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

"Line Dancing" - it's the faux redneck version of a Broadway chorus line but they don't know it.

If you're in Austin, there's a metal recycling facility S of Ben White, W of 35.

I wasn't really locked in on it as something to argue about, but I did have "Elspeth" ("Ellen" or "Elly" as a shortened version) but that didn't fly with the wife. She was always conjugating names & looking for ways it could be used or twisted by other kids; that was very important to her because she actually has a dumb 1st name (because her mom is an idiot... but that's for another thread... wife goes by her middle name except on medical or legal docs, etc). The girl (oldest) has a very pedestrian 1st & middle name... I dig it. The boy is also nicely generic for both names... & My nickname for him from prob. the 1st week has always been "Monster". He doesn't mind when I use it, but get chafed with others pull that.

Please please tell us (even though it didn't work out) that your last name is "Freely". Yeah?
