Haley is going to murder us in our sleep. Whole school just kind of went slack jaw watching the news piece and finding out that she's going to nationals. When they pulled her up to the front, I thought she was going to die though because she's super bashful.
When we were burning giant machine piles in the spring we would each grab a 5-gallon bucket of luma gel powder, pour in the gallon of fuel, and mix them up with a joint compound mixer and use a small garden trowel or a chuckit to fling little globs of flaming gel into the piles. by the end of the day we were flinging flaming globs at each other.
I felt nothing in the power company fortress that I work in. What a ripoff.Oh, hey, fuckin' earthquake, how are you

Do you have a thermite recipe that uses pop rocks and Kingsford?
Might I suggest dinner for two at an Indian place. Order double Indian hot.
I have one that uses an Etch-A-Sketch, Ferric acid and some Lye.
For weed control, obviously.
Not much elevation gain/loss going on there. I feel your pain, flat and sandy discomfort. May you be blessed with Rhodos and greasy roots soon.
It probably was a fart, just a fart who brought some fluid friends to the party

Is that a +1?
Normally I would say a fart is just a turd honking for the right away. . .
volunteer work at a park by the office this AM. was near the dive shop, so dropped off the transmitter for installation on the first stage. BC was ready so that came home with me. water time tomorrow at a university pool.
School counselor asked us to join.

Just talked to the owner of the tent company that makes my tent. He doubts that it will last the entire thru hike because of it's age and the process in which it was originally manufactured. Said they are good for about 150 nights and I've probably got close to half of that already. Humph indeed.

Yes, dyneema is an ultra-linear polyethylene. Polyethylene as polymer molecule has a carbon-carbon bond as its backbone (which is why dyneema is so strong) but in its normal state it likes to naturally fold up like a zig zag, which is why normal PE is quite stretchy if pulled in the right directions. Dyneema has these backbones aligned and frozen in place, but heating it to about 80°C starts to soften it up and will start to ‘shrink’ back to its regular old PE zig-zag structure. I can totally see a dyneema tent sitting in the sun, especially with a good bit of UV would probably experience some of this shrinkage after a while.
so it needs to be sheltered from the sun like a CF bike, I'm hearing
maybe one could get a tent for the tent
Owner said that the model year my tent was manufactured that the company just pulled sheets of dyneema off a roll and built the tents. New factory pre-stretches the Dyneema. Interesting to note that some tent companies have switched from dyneema floors back to Silnylon.

When I chose my gear, after much research, I was operating under the assumption that a lot of it would only last for one thru hike. Then Covid happened and I just kept training with a full pack. So by now my kit has somewhere around 2500 miles on it. Well over one thru hike.

Hey, more great news! Apparently I have ligament damage in my index finger that is essentially unrepairable. It supposedly will always be weak and somewhat painful.
I obviously will get a second opinion.
I asked "If I were a famous concert pianist or something, how would they proceed?"
She said nothing more than what we are doing.
Well, at least my marriage is terrible, so that’s great too.

From a Moab trip a few years ago. I can ask my buddy Elroy where he got it if you want.
