Looking Glass, I think most of us see things the same way you do, but please stop the stream of thoughts / venting posts. The political section is being diluted by them. If your going to post a thread, then link something to it to provide background to what you are saying. Let people react to...
Do not underestimate how many insufferably dumb people we have in this country that only understand the political landscape by watching a couple minutes of the force fed mainstream democratic propaganda. Been said many times, these idiots will only realize what has transpired over the last 8...
I was just poking the bear Chump Change, collage football has always had fierce rivalry's, conference debates about who and why they are better than X conference and some what dependable outcomes with the top 25 schools. That all changed with NIL, cant say I think the kids don't deserve to get...
My thought was a rock got lodged between a rotor and caliper / brake pad, used to happen a lot on GM trucks. The the sounds this was making also had a thin sheet metal banging sound, like a heat shield or skid plate hitting something spinning. I tried backing up several times to dislodge a...
We have a 2020 RT Durango and it has been issue free until today. I bought it new in Dec of 2020 and it has 20K miles on it. Went to visit my parents and on the way home I could hear a metallic sound coming from the drive train at 50 MPH or less. I thought I ran over a trash can or a skid plate...
Hello Michigan, / Chump Change,
welcome to the new PAC 12 infused big 10. UW could have provided a much larger beat down on Michigan if UW's head coach and most of the coaching staff didn't bail for more money last year along with numerous players going in to the draft. Big ten didn't prior...
I still have a slip on pair of Ariat's (Chelsea's?) that were fucking brutal on break in (should have soaked them in water!) but are now my I don't care yard work boots, so comfortable!
I searched RDP's place and didn't see any posts regarding home wireless sound systems in the past couple of years. I ditched the corded Denon AVR / Klipsch speaker system a couple of years ago and we went all in on Denon wireless stuff.
Current set up is all Denon wireless. Center speaker and...
We have a ton of raptors in our area, yes some of the Ford variety but I am talking about birds. We have had a great horned owl in our cedar tree in the back yard last spring, bald eagle on the ground in our backyard, several Barred Owls, a fucking obnoxious mating pair of Merlin falcons that...
There is a percentage of the population that are just sick MOFO's. The obvious result of this is that it empowers / emboldens these sick F's to take it further and ultimately try and fulfil their F'd up fantasy with real children. Am I wrong? AI is going to open up so many moral loopholes, this...
You have much more intelligent rabbits (and voters!) than we do in western WA. Our rabbits first line of defense is to sit still until something is right on top of it then run in a zig zag pattern. Cats and dogs love that challenge. Our miniature schnauzer "12 pound dog" on a leash has almost...
Some of my guys on the last job swore by these, I've never tried them but each time I bought a new pair of Redwings they would suggest trying out Thorogood's. Seemed like we were getting about the same life span out of them though. I didn't resole mine, some of the guys did, the leather and...
We have them here too. I've heard from neighbors coyotes can get over a 5' fence and have zero qualms about snatching a smaller dog and eating it. Last year a pack killed something one house down in the greenbelt during the summer, we had the windows open and their vocalizing was super eerie. I...
Agreed, and I love wild felines, but have never seen a bobcat / Lynx in my yard before. That female cat is about 3' long, but really skinny. The males are much bigger. What size dog what it take to fend a cat like that off? I know our two 10 - 20 pound dogs would be no match, neither would our...
Never heard of Origin or Brundt, are they US made? On my last project I was walking 3 - 7 miles a day on un paved / concrete surfaces and my Redwing's would last about 8 months. Totally comfortable, but the soles and stitching wore out. Have had Danners in the past, way to heavy for my knees.
We live in a very developed area south of Everette Boeing field in Everett WA, on the border of Mill Creek. For those that are familiar with the area, we are in the Pioneer Trails area. My wife was noticing on the local FB page and neighborhood what ever its called site bobcats and black bears...
Just tagging on to your last point, if you don't own the company, your job is to make that company money. It's not a fucking hobby, you don't own the company and making money is what you were hired for and what keeps all companies in business. If the business you work for isn't ethical, leave...
