Just be sure those snow banks aren't concealing a pile of bricks or something! Former brother-in-law took the groom "off-roading" in a field near the wedding reception (hey, I live in red-neck country, who'd think it in New York!). He had sort of scouted it previously, didn't know of the 3ft/1m diameter log in the middle of the weeds, hit it end on with the transfer case, chassis moved forward after the power train stopped.

 


Hah!

6 inches to the left and i'd have been just fine... wouldn't have even noticed the log there...

Hi Snow,

 

Do you mind if I call you snow or should it be Mr. Mule?

 

After looking at that image, I am certain that you guys are crazy.

 

Spoiler
And that is coming from a guy that is preparing to spend his life savings on food that is rated to be around longer than him.

I had mentioned earlier the better-half had ordered a new sword. It arrived last night along with a battle spear.

Having had the pleasure of sloughing some suds near Mr. Mule

Spoiler
He dropped into a sno-mo swap event near me a few years ago and took the time out of his day to chat.

HAUSA would be a good nickname (How Are yoU Still Alive)

NOT political so relax!!!!

 

So I was watching the news and observed that James Comey seemed to tower over those around him.

 

Curious I started to do a Google search and I was disturbed since the auto-complete of the search phrase is often and indication that Google has been tracking my browsing and is pushing something on me.

 

Spoiler

 

 

 

 

I just had to type;

 

"How tall"

 

and the second autocomplete option was "how tall James Comey".

 

So I was not the first person to notice. The answer by the way is 6'8".

In a kind of (not really) similar vein to what Ben just wrote:

When I go to get some cash from an ATM I began to notice that the amount of money I wanted to get started matching perfectly the amount the ATM suggested to me.  It became more and more noticeable that the machine apparently knew how much money I wanted irrespective of which bank owned the ATM.  I thought that everybody must have been withdrawing the same amount of cash.  Whoever was at the machine before me always seemed to want the exact same transaction as me.  I was starting to believe I was just completely tuned in to the Zeitgeist and was an innocent part of some weird financial singularity.........

 

Then someone explianed that my ATM card simply has a small memory in the chip of how much money I withdraw last time and suggests the same amount to me next time.  I had simply become consistent in the amount of money I was withdrawing. Smiley Embarassed

 

I felt deflated.  For a moment I thought I belonged to something, no idea what, but something. Smiley Very HappySmiley Very Happy

There may be a place for you Shane.

 

I heard something last night about people are marrying themselves. Seeing you have a history of agreeing with yourself...

 

But then again, you are already spoken for.

Not sure that actually agreeing is a hallmark of marriage. 😉

Do you really think it is memory in the chip?  I figured it was probably the ATM machine querying the network and that is where your patterns are stored.
