  1. Can you just carve out a hole in the tile big enough to fit the anchor + head against the drywall instead of against the tile? That could open you up to some of the more heavy duty options out there and you don't have to worry about cracking the tile when you tighten the screw down. Having a small gap between the shelf and the anchor where the tile is carved out shouldn't weaken anything too much I don't think.
  2. Got a new toy. Works so damn well - it's going to save me hours of time squaring wood up and has me excited to launch more projects. Half way put together here but you get the idea - produces dead 90 after a two passes.
  3. I haven't tried this but I wouldn't trust a hollow wall anchor to hold a floating shelf mount unless you know for certain the load will be light. Even with two studs, I keep the load light on any of our floating shelves. Floating shelves are just a very awkward distribution of weight.
  4. Just got back, what an epic trip. Scotland is amazing, it's people are incredibly friendly and welcoming, Glasgow is one of my new favorite cities. Can't wait to go back! The tournament was also epic - they spaced everything out nicely so you never felt crowded, tons of great food options, plenty of beer, all the transportation was efficient. The best part is the crowd - you rarely ever hear the stupid shit American golf fans say like "bababouey!" and "light the candle" and all the other frat boy crap that gets spewed in the US. It's about the golf and much less so about this being a social outing. Some pics:
  5. Let's not forget a huge swath of that state supports senator grabs a dick in a play and her colleagues.
  6. Damn you, Lando... I was just starting to like you.
  7. Just thinking too much about that vacation. Must be hard. I'm over Rory.
  8. That might be happening and we're not aware. That's not exactly something you put out in public unless you have reason to. Publicly demeaning the USSS who you rely on to live, especially given recent events... Probably not the wisest move.
  9. There are very few spots in Austin I'd consider a Michelin star worthy - not because of the food, they just don't check all the (ridiculous) boxes for a Michelin starred place. That level of service is hard to come by. I think Austin will have a fuck ton of Bib Gourmand spots, though. It feels like a city full of Bib Gourmands. 19 Bib Gourmands doesn't sound that crazy to me. I've been to a ton of Bib Gourmand places and pretty much each time I think "this would work in Austin" or "there is better in Austin".
  10. How did drawing against a scrub team before Copa work out for Brazil? Though I do agree, nonetheless.
  11. Even if I was a Republican, I'd have fatty on ignore. Might be something we can all get behind to unite this country. ... Maybe he's on to something.
  12. Their xG must have been like 24. Gotta figure out a way to cash all these chances.
  13. I'll be there Saturday (leave for London tomorrow). Rain gear ready.
  14. At least he did it with honor and resigned. Took at least some responsibility. I can respect that.
  15. Wake the fuck up or buy a mirror. My God.
  16. Popular vote means shit. Come on now. The year he got the right votes in the right places to win.
  17. He's our next president. This will energize his base like 2016.
  18. If any of you fuckers page Klopp at ORD....
  19. If you do book separate itineraries - for example, AUS->BER->AUS and then BER->WAW->BER separately - make sure you leave a day between departures on the itineraries. If you miss a flight because your incoming flight on a separate itinerary is delayed, the airline isn't going to give two shits. Have read a lot of horror stories about that.
  20. Maybe this is all a good thing. We're all fucking scared shitless at the moment. The left wins when voter turnout is high. What greater motivator is there than fear?
  21. I don't think many of the names being floated have national team manager experience other than Marsh. If it's a coach with club skins on the wall, especially in Europe, that's enough for me to get excited - Klopp, Tuchel, Pochettino. But regardless, anyone on the lists being circulated would be a big improvement.
  22. Recon just found 67 knot winds. Would appear Beryl might already be a hurricane again, 36 hours before forecast.
  23. Agreed. I don't need discounts. I need a reason to spend any money.
  24. Not to put words in his mouth, or any D's mouth, but if you're even remotely a democrat, you're supporting any nominee over fucking Trump. I'm in the "Biden needs to step down" camp but I sure as fuck am voting Biden if he doesn't.
