ooops Im too slow
Nope, it's a species. Wait, what are we talking about?Beat ya to it LB.
or as I yell at my son when we are riding together, "Its NOT a race!"
Try this one.Neither of those links worked on my phone...so that's my problem. I have read that those two songs were released on purple vinyl 45. Check your collections guys...I will buy it if you have one...
Oh, poo.
Well, at least replacing the broken spring on my garage door doesn't look like it's as difficult as I thought.
Thanks for the link. I've been doing a bit of research, and it looks like I can get springs with expected cycle lifes of around 43,000 for about 150 with shipping. Not horrible. That should come out around 30 years of life.LG,
I've used this link before, but have paid to have it done the last two times. They can be tricky.
When are you planning on visiting BL (and what are you interested in seeing?) If you don't mind company during your one-on-one vacation with your son, I'd be down for meeting for a beer or two if the schedule works out.
I haven't gotten caught up with all the posts yet... I'll have to go back and read more. But that would be nice. Just to meet up for a beer or 2 or something. August 1st through 6th we'll be in Philly... minus 2 days to attend a family reunion north of there. We're staying about 2 blocks from city hall. We mostly just want to look at the buildings. Catch the bus or trolley, cruise around, look around, and stop in anywhere that looks like it's a good atmosphere to have a good brew. Eat. Relax. Look at more buildings, walk around. Stop and have another beer. Nothingness, no set plans. Our least busy day will be August 5th, a Monday. We'll be back from the family reunion on Sunday night and the train to take us back home doesn't leave until around noon on Tuesday.
The PhillyPhlash bus is a good option for getting around - it runs from the waterfront out to the zoo and is $2 a ride (they used to have an all day ride option but I'm not sure they offer that anymore.) There's quite a bit of interesting architecture in the city. I'm going on vacation that Saturday (the 3rd) but would probably be able to meet you for a beer or two on Thursday. What time are you due to arrive?
I wish you guys lived closer. I just got back from a birthday party and I have a half gallon of brew leftover that's quickly going flat and needs to be drank. Everyone liked it, but everyone had to drive. I should have just taken a sixer instead of a couple growlers. Oh well, better too much beer than not enough, right? I don't know why, but I've had this song stuck in my head for a couple days. If I didn't know better, I'd think I just watched Beetlejuice.

My birds love this they all start dancing. I have faith you can drink a 1/2 gallon
I've been getting beat down by the sun lately. I'm doing exterior painting on a house, and it's been 101-105F the last week or so. I haven't kept up with the thread. I get home feeling like I got beat up, and I don't have it in me to type or talk. I just aint what I used to be.
I just finished up the day relaxing in my backyard after it finally cooled off.
That looks great!

Blackberry wine, yum.HBT has been calling out to me, but I lack the time to answer lately. I'm having a reoccurring dream that involves wild blackberries and EC-1118. Even wondered, if I went out to a field of blackberries, sprinkled a little yeast on the ones starting to over-ripen, then go back in a few weeks and eat them. Probably wouldn't work, just a dream I had...

Looks like the week after I get back from Pennsylvania, I'm taking hubby to a tractor fest in Tennessee. 4 days. So that will be 12 days of vacation this summer. At these tractor fests, there are always a few guys out in the parking area, drinking beer. I just go introduce myself. They all know hubby so I'm almost famous there. And of course, within a few minutes, they offer me a beer which I gladly except. And that's the rest of the day. "Oh sure, I'll take one more."

Let me check with my little brother. He's a CHP in Monterey and they tend to be savvy on rental situations as most of them live elsewhere and have crash pads up there that they share. Ill see if he knows of anything offhand.
Working another shift alone tonight. Even though we're not supposed to anymore, for obvious reasons. This is my 6th straight day, then two off, then back on for 7. Man I am ready to move on from here. I start didactic portions of the fire academy for my fire science AS degree in August, then the Academy itself in January. I really can't wait. It's the culmination of a few years of working toward what I wanted to do instead of what made the money. 2.5 years ago my wife looked across the table at me, and asked me, "If you hate the insurance business who much, sell it! What would you so if you could do anything?" I didn't hesitate to say I would fight fire. Two months later the business was sold, most of the business (and divorce) debt was paid off, and it was a huge weight off my shoulders. I didn't realize how heavy that monkey had grown over the 8 years I owned it. I am now a firm believer in doing what it was you wanted to when you were a kid. Work toward it and do it. Chase that dream job. My son has bounced between being a cop and in the military. I will support either of those and will encourage him to pursue what he really wants to do, not that almighty dollar. I literally make 1/6 of what I used to before and I wouldn't think of going back for the money.

Making the move to kegging, just picked up my first two ball locks $35 for 2. I put an ad out on our local FB classifieds and got a Mexican dude who has several. He brought me these two but says he has 5 more that he will sell me for $100. Score.
