Took dogs for a walk. Southern most point of the fire in the hood not even half a mile. Some people got stupid lucky. Like, melted/warped/discolored siding, yet structure remains intact, lucky. It could have been really bad yesterday.

Time for a lynching:
"One man has been cited on suspicion of firing woods or prairie, a class 6 felony, after public safety officials determined the cause of the Akerman fire was from smoldering ashes from a residential fire pit, officials with the Colorado Springs Police Department announced Thursday night."

no. I get it, you like thin crust. good for you.
wait, to be clear I'm talking about the og pizzera Uno on Ohio St., not the chain restaurant Uno's. my bad if that's the misunderstanding.

I've had good deep dish there. There is a place near me called Windy City Pie that is very popular but I think is crap. But most pizza in this town isn't very good, no matter the style. Best we have is a few traditional Roman style places.


As per tradition and a chuckle

Clarification accepted.

I've heard you can make a good deep dish pizza in a cast iron skillet, on my to do list.

Well I made it home and faster than the ride into work. I was surprised how 'ok' I felt, considering how tired I was feeling at work.

But God dammit, left work too late and didn't get home in time to go grab donair AND fish and chips!

I guess beer it is.

Back in the 90s I knew another smith who made body armour for Squirrels. Very detailed and all hand formed from sheet, just like armourers. Had a stuffed squirrel as the model. Amazing workmanship and hilarious.

If he armoured up the Rabbit of Caerbannog he could have ruled the world.

That was neat. 6.5 hours later I’m rolling. Hydraulic line shit the bed that was inside the main parallel lift mechanism. There were 3 more hoses inside the frame. Replaced them all while I had it apart. Nothing like a hydraulic oil golden shower to set the mood for the day.

I also like Chicago deep dish pie. Unos is good in my book. I like Molinari's the best. Actually, Pequod's is the best. But the place is a dump. I try to stay within the loop in Chicago at night. Folks in Chicago like to get stabby and shooty at the drop of dime.

Good on you for replacing them all. Two summers ago I did it the wrong way…the one at a time way…in three day intervals for longer than I care to admit.

I have a friend who says something the effect of “farmers are mechanics with a little horticultural knowledge.”
