Bender? That you @Bender?
 
Yep,

We will need to kill a herd or two of cattle to offset the atmosphere carbon.

It was really noticeable tonight, the hazy sky…..Suck thing is diffused light and no smoke smell. If the air had the Yankee Candle scent of “Burning Canada” upon the air it would be pleasant.

We had an amazing sunrise!!

Reminds me of my friend, Lee. He had come from 3 active combat tours in Vietnam specializing in remote detonation of ordnance on the laotian-cambodian border. He had accidentally signed up for JFK's newly minted bud/S.

When he got out, one of the jobs he had was bartending (not the first but interesting, nontheless.) A patron ordered a vodka on the rocks. He asked if the guy wanted a slice of lime. The patron said, "If I wanted limeade, I would have ordered that."
 
This is the 1970 Cub I bought for my SIL. He teared up when I gave it to him. He’s a good man 😎

A few years ago there was a news story about a guy that rode one of those old Cub Cadets several hundred miles to see his sick brother. 80 something year old guy had no drivers license or car. So he set out on the four hundred mile trip on his Cub.
 
There are some really.....sappy songs I guess I will say.....that I enjoy, perhaps a new thread in there somewhere.

Edit to add:

Dat ain't one of em.
Agreed. If you have a problem child that doesn't like to get up in the morning play Minnie Ripperton's song for them. CAUTION: The child is likely to wake up in a very angry mood but at least they won't be late for school. Then the teacher can deal with their anger.

On the other hand, a bucket of ice water does the trick equally well and no need to repeat. The next time the parent says to get up, the child will be like a coiled spring getting out of bed or they will be up before you.

This fits here.

Watching drone strike footage in another thread did what it always does, made me think about what amazing lengths we've gone through throughout human history, the resources expended, the technology created, all in an effort to get better at killing each other. :(

And then I remembered this bit. :)

My mailbox is made from 1/4" plate and and welded to 4" Schedule 80 pipe buried to 5'. It will certainly leave a mark.
My mailbox from a few years ago. This one wouldn't buff out, but it did total out a BMW. :ROFLMAO:
He hit it so hard, there were pieces of brick against the garage door you see across the street, but, according to him, he was only going 20.

Years ago one of my buddies here in VT got tired of his mailbox getting trashed by kids with bats, plows, retards who couldn't drive... he was losing one every 6 months on his road.

So he took an old canoe and sank it half way into the ground on end. Then filled it with rebar and built a mailbox in the middle. Made a form... and filled the canoe with about 2 yards of concrete.

You could have hit that with a dumptruck and not moved it. Kids with bats... got a shock! One car hit it... no more car.

I think it is still there. He sold the house. But would have taken an excavator to get it out of the ground.

I'll post a picture of my neighbor's next time I run by. It is the most redneck thing you ever saw... because as it rots, he just keeps adding more wood. I can drag it into the road to mow around it (it's on the edge of my field.) It is brilliant woodchuck engineering!

Cheers,
