  1. It really was a beautiful explosion. I hope all that the stuff raining down at the end is asbestos.
  2. We went to Mammoth. The snow wasn’t good. Mostly packed and icy, with a few powdery spots in the shade. It snowed last Tuesday, and I heard everything before and after was man-made. I still had a great time because the whole family got to ski / snowboard together for the first time. The slopes were pretty easy - some were rated blue/black, but easier than blues at other resorts.
  3. I got my wife a pair of Uggs because hers were worn out. I got a hoodie with a Fender logo. We also spent $5-6K for a long weekend in Mammoth, which was awesome. Great skiing even though the snow was terrible. Maybe because this was the first year the entire family could ski together (albeit slowly).
  4. Likely not in the short run. But the initial goal is to eliminate the long range ground to air missiles, Russian airfields before they can go to ground attack mode. That’s what the US did in the first gulf war. Once the skies are clear, you can do whatever the fuck you want.
  5. My daughter strapped on skis for the first time on Saturday. By today, she was going down fairly difficult blue slopes - some with moguls. Still needs a lot of practice, but I’m really happy she picked it up so quickly.
  6. Maybe you shoulda asked Santa for a full size thumb nail. /sorry!!!
  7. Radars emit microwaves when they track airborne targets. The US has developed anti-radiation missiles (e.g. the AGM-88 HARM) that will follow the microwaves back to the emitter, ie. the radar installation. There are planes that fly “wild weasel” missions. Their task is to get enemy radars to track and lock onto them. Then they fire the HARM and GTFO of Dodge. It’s likely the US has also given Ukraine decoys that mimic airplanes. So the hope is the radars lock onto the decoys instead of the planes themselves. Slow enough for ya?
  8. Only 2 hours? It took me about 5 to put one together. Granted I started at 10 and was already tired af. But totally worth it. Between my kids, we got about 6-7 years of solid use.
  9. Forgetting every single ski trip to bring chapstick with UV protection. It hurt like hell eating tortilla chips and salsa.
  10. Wife and I met with a CFP last weekend, and she's finally digging into her various retirement accounts accumulated over the years. I have a pretty good idea of her roll-overs and current 401(k), but I can't help statements like this: "Oh... I guess my company opened up a Merrill Lynch account for me when they gave me stock..." "How much is it worth?" "$35K" "Whoohoo! But you seriously didn't know about it?" "I know they gave me stock, just didn't know where it was..." Previously her bonuses were all cash. But the company was bought out last year, and she "thought" they said the bonuses would now be split 50% cash / 50% stock. What actually happened was they gave her the same cash bonus as last year and just gave her the equivalent in stock.
  11. Googling... and... nope. Not flawless. Whether she's pretty enough for TV is up for debate. I'd say yes. One thing we can all agree upon is... she's got HUUUGE tracts of land.
  12. Our entire department is out sick today... One guy felt really sick last Wednesday, then came back to work on Thursday and Friday. He told me today his wife has Covid. On Friday, I wasn't 100% but wore a mask while I was around other people. I have some sinus pressure now, but otherwise okay. Another coworker is flat on his back; the 3rd has some nasal drip (for now). I'm fucking pissed at the first guy because he's so cavalier about coming in to the office sick. It's not the first time he's come in sick and I've had to tell him to GTFO either.
  13. This is also my cousin's explanation of why he didn't get food poisoning when he was in China during the late 90s early 00s.
  14. Agree. If you can remove and replace a cracked manifold on a 305 Chevy small block V8, then a garbage disposal is a piece of cake. No really, it's pretty easy. I replaced one at the old house and it took me about 30 minutes.
  15. Wife shows me some new sleep aid device (speaker that plays soothing music) she got off the internet. Me playing with the speaker - volume goes from mute to Megadeth concert in about 5 clicks. Me: The volume control on this thing isn't very sensitive. Her: Yeah, you said that it was too loud earlier. Me: I could hear it through my earphones, so yeah, it was pretty loud. Her: Well then don't use it. Me: I didn't say I wouldn't use it, just said it was either too quiet or too loud. Her: Fine, well don't use it. This woman takes everything I say as a criticism. Feel like I'm fucking tiptoeing around the house because she'll misconstrue an innocent comment and start an argument.
  16. Went to Total Wine to pick up some Johnny Walker Green (I like the flavor a lot and it’s only $50). Buy 2 and get $12 off. No need to tell me twice. Peruse the shelves and notice they have Hibiki Harmony on the shelves for $80. It’s been really hard to find, and the lowest price elsewhere has been $100. I bought 2 more to keep company with the other 2 in my cabinet.
  17. Yup. They have the “pouch” fly. Been wearing them for the past at least 18 years. Just bought a whole bunch of them as a Christmas present to myself.
  18. Looking at the Victoria’s Secret website for some lingerie for the wife. Maybe 1 out of 3 are VS models we love and remember. The others have BMIs that only @Vic Mackey would love. There’s also amputee in the line up. I guess they’re trying to be representative of the population, but not what I want to see at 6AM on the crapper.
  19. So why don’t you just keep it in the tackle box?
  20. pancakes arrested stabbed Christmas is gonna suck.
  21. Fuck yeah! Fuck Putin! Fuck Orban! Fu Make smooth love to Kaja!
  22. That guy has a YouTube channel. I went down the YouTube tunnel and found out his girlfriend also has a channel of her dancing and looking incredibly hot. Kinda NSFW
