Not a bad week. Nice weather and good grill sessions in the garden. I got a a fireplace dude in coming by the house today to look at installing an wood burning oven into the fire place sort of like this

It will greatly improve the heating with build in air circulation and less smell and smoke in the room too.

Good morning. Up at 4am

 

[CBJ]

@Nick go back to bed.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Digging up teasel is probably on the agenda.

 

[mandown]

Post surgery insomnia. Fuuu.
At least YouTube has a ton of The Young Ones to watch.

 

[jstuhlman]

home from beach at last. need to be productive at work today. we'll see how that goes.

"Neil: [Neil steps out the door and finds Rick tied to a cross] Hey Rick, man! What're you doing with my crucifix, man?

Rick: Protesting!

Neil: Yeah, but I really think I should lay this one on you, man: that's a really negative way to kill yourself, you know, like, I've tried it hundreds of times. There's no way you can hammer in the last nail."

Good Morning!

Gonna be a humid one today...need to invent some coolant-lined underwear and call it "Ice Cubes" or "Cool Balls" or whatnot..

I think I just kind of zoned out from the second I walked out of work yesterday until the point at which I walked in this morning - it's like I just blinked, and here I am again.

My wife and I will celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary this weekend. We've made it through things that have blown up other couples to bits. I'm certainly grateful we've had each other to lean on over the years. She does make me a better human.

Y'all have a great day and go do some positive sh*t in the world.

@ the show grounds in my camper. dogs fed and walked so now its my turn for Espresso and food. should be in the low 90s and windy today

 

[Yossarian]

Must find upholstery foam, webbing and web stretcher. I know I saw all at reasonable prices last week, now I am not seeing what I want.

 

[StiHacka]

Morning. It is a gray humid day here, with rain coming any minute now. Bankster neighbor is moving out, a large moving truck parked under my window with the engine running and woke me up early this morning. I worry a little who the next owner is going to be.

 

[DirtyMike]

Morning. New pup did great last night. She is super smart and taking to commands way faster than expected. Took her about an hour to find a weak spot in my fence but she came right back through when called. We ended up naming her Gracie(wife's pick) and she responds well to it.

 

[stoney]

Here. FTS is high.

Wifey decided that she wants to order wraps for the cornhole game to style as she wants. The paint has been purchased and stencil for the CA bear has been ordered already. She decided to be mad at me because I made a decision that she lagged on. FTS.

Haley was good last night. I'll take it.

congrats. you should celebrate by riding bikes and drinking beer.

just curious - what do you do with the dogs during the day when on duty?

 

[Greyhound]

That's a whole camper full of smart fuzzies...I have one as well - a smart fuzzy, not a camper, and the fur deposits are off the chart - I can't imagine 3...

 

[Serial Midget]

Good morning Monkies! Slept in again. Will be hitting the trail in about 30 minutes, it's currently 75 degrees and I want to be back at the car park be for it hits 90. We have cloudless skies and no wind, perfect day for a fast road ride but my ass cannot take anymore pavement this week.

They hang in the camper with the Air Conditioning running and they get a walk during the lunch break

Just look on the bright side - cornhole could possibly be the dumbest game on the planet.

Should have just bought an old-fashioned Jarts set.

you should be an expert then.

Drunk game that kids can play. I'll run with it.

Wait... you're getting the kids drunk? This Highlands Ranch place is intriguing...

 

[Pesqueeb]

FTS is high.

It's gonna be even worse when I have to go back to work.

On the other hand, I finally broke down and ordered a new single speed wheel for my commuter. Discovered when I rode the hard tail to work the other day that the city has re-paved a goodly portion of my route in the more industrialized areas north of the airport, so it will be nice to have a proper road bike back.

 

[canadmos]

WOOOOO Friday and thank fackkkk. This week has been stoooopid at work. Management wants things done NOW but don't understand that some of this stuff takes planning and testing. And time when dealing with running new cables and stuff. The best part is when shit doesn't work correctly right away, as expected when you just wing crap together. God damn, headache inducing bullpoop.

But, ride is planned tonight.

And tomorrow we've got a group going out to a mellow but fun ride spot. It will be followed up with tacos at the Taco Farm and then beers and crokinole playing at a local brewery.

 

[StiHacka]

Work sucks, I think I am going to start drinking beer now.

 

[jonKranked]

parents are in town, so i might be able to get in more than a short ride. have "discovered" a trail network i previously hadn't heard of ~30 minutes away, 20 mile loop around a reservoir. if it dries out enough from the rain i might try and make that happen.

 

[Toshi]

Hello all. I am working for a second day this workweek and do not care for it, no sir. At least it's Food Truck Friday this evening.

 

[Serial Midget]

Ride complete, ended at 87 degrees so not too bad. Now for my 6th day this week of doing nothing...

 

[jonKranked]

looking at new phones. what a bunch of shit.

 

[stoney]

Re-confirmation that dealerships are a scam. MIL went to the Subaru dealer and they are quoting her $530 installed for a set of crap tires. I just pulled a set of decent Goodyear tires from Tire Rack, shipped to the local Honda dealer, installed for $400. Fuck dealerships.

Look at Google Fi. You need a Google phone, but the plan is seriously cheap and has coverage from all providers.

Right. Look beyond the box.

wife is pretty set on an iphone this time around, which puts Fi out of the running.

If Fi forces you to buy a Pixel (the only choice available AFAIK), they are pricing themselves out for most people.

with the pixel 2 a few months away, there's some decent deals to be had on the current gen devices
