Azdeus Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Well she was Asian, so close. Best nurse I have had in a while, spotted vein, in and out with no bruise. That's definetly not Ninja then, but then again, I was her first. Took her several attempts just to get it in, and the bruising.. oh, the sweet memories. She did get better at it later, after I met up with her for the 5th time she actually got it in on the first try. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Katphood Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 The weather is cooling down over here. It will be 3 months or so before I start bitching about how cold it is. There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.
ShadySands Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 Disappointed there's nothing where the Jurassic Park gate used to be. I get it if they took it down after shooting but I'm surprised no replica was built in its place. Helicopter tour was dope. 1 Free games updated 3/4/21

LadyCrimson Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) Amazon Fresh does well with frozen, convenience food and household item delivery, although I've never seen such wasteful "packaging" as they do. "I want six cup yogurts." "Here's your yogurts swimming inside a ginormous paper bag with a frozen bottle of water included as the cooler part." (Don't they have any smaller sized bags for smaller orders?) Also, the first time I tried them I nearly "burned" my finger tips because I thought the red bags at the bottom of one bag were bagged frozen food boxes ("what are these?"). Thus I picked up several and carried them to the kitchen before I realized they were dry ice. Doh. Edited August 17, 2018 by LadyCrimson “Things are as they are.

It wasn't the money or the time, I just feel safer not being attached to something that isn't always available and is illegal.

Raithe Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 Do you get any kind of decent return on those? For example, GameStop here in the US will buy console games but only for pennies on the dollar. Well, back in 2004 I financed a trip to the US from putting about a dozen boxed Transformers on E-bay. - Seriously, I got about $300 for one boxed Metroplex. Doing a bit of online research, I've seen some of the GI Joe figures (without all the accessories) being sold for $20-30 each. So I'm fairly hopeful that'll it will cover a few bills and such like if I get them all sold. 1 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Guard Dog Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 My brother approached me about a business opportunity. Not only am I not interested I'm trying very hard to dissuade him for pursuing it. Money, no matter if you worked hard to earn it, inherited it, or fell backasswards into it, should not be gambled with cavalierly. 2 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell

ShadySands Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 Sunset boat tour yesterday was awesome. We saw another monk seal and some dolphins and I also got a lot of good pics. Here's one but it doesn't do it any justice and I should probably crop the edge a bit. 7 Free games updated 3/4/21
Guard Dog Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 Maybe he will get rich from whatever he wants to do. it involves, in fact requires, investment in a brick-and-mortar retail sales point. That means high start up and operations cost. Not a good idea these days.

Katphood Posted August 19, 2018 Posted August 19, 2018 Cleaned the terrace along with both litter boxes from scratch. I used a 0.33 l bottle for water and I think I used it a total of 20 times.

ManifestedISO Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 last time there the first thing we heard was an air-raid siren, or coulda been a typhoon warning, no one knew but it was definitely cloudy going home the plane was delayed two hours so our connector from LA to SD was missed and we enjoyed a midnight Astro van tour all the way from Los Angeles All Stop.

Guard Dog Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Are you flying from Honolulu? That's was how we did it. We took the hopper to Kauai from Oahu. "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
Gfted1 Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Had a weird day down at the ole fishing hole yesterday. So were standing there fishing when out of the corner of my eye I see my friends pole go *WHAM*WHAM* and then sail completely over the railing and into the river. We tried to find it with a net but no luck. My friend is bumming hard when around 30 minutes later I reel i my line to rebait my hook and there is some random other line hooked to my line. I pull it in and there is a sinker and treble hook. We take that random hook, line and sinker and walk over to the general area where his pole went in. He throws it in and on the second toss, against all odds, hooks his own lost pole right on the spinner guard! The fish had gotten away but ~$75 retrieved from the river! 1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
ShadySands Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Weird night, first our flight was delayed for maintenance then they had a part delivered from Honolulu and it was delayed again. Then whatever they replaced didn't work so our flight was cancelled so they told people to start booking hotels while they worked on getting us replacement flights and vouchers and then 20 or 30 minutes later they came back and said the plane was now working and for everyone to get on. Half the waiting area cheered and the other half was either pissed or scared to fly after all those issues. I still feel bad for the folks that rebooked or got hotels and even worse for the ones who left. Are you flying from Honolulu? That's was how we did it. We took the hopper to Kauai from Oahu. We had a direct flight from Lihue to Denver (and vice versa) which was pretty awesome All in all it was a great trip and I thank those who recommended it. I'll throw up a few pictures in one of the picture or vacation threads when I get home from work because of course I got right off the plane and went right to work. The only bad thing is that I apparently have a slight UV allergy. I swear humans aren't from this planet Free games updated 3/4/21
teknoman2 Posted August 21, 2018 Posted August 21, 2018 There was a pretty big storm here yesterday and because our infrastructure is first rate, we had no power for about 3 hours The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did. Modern democracy is: the sheep voting for which dog will be the shepherd's right hand.
