You can get as cheap as 90 or 100 an oz some places here. It's warehouse grown but decent. But definitely not the kind of stuff grown by a stoner with lights and passion in the basement.

 

Yeah I saw them when they were in Liverpool They are cool


Fuckity fuck I should read ALL the thread Before I comment

pool



2 words that probably arent ever said much together unless youre mentioning liverpool

 

fuck this heat

 

so, over ten pages to catch up on. I don't think so! gimme the highlights. lol

ugh! ok, well i guess I've moved on from dumb stuff that was bothering me yesterday. Guess that's good...or I'm blissfully ignorant. Whatever. Nah, I'm being careful...or stupid. Depends who you ask, I guess. Anyway...yeah, getting more and more busy with stuff this summer, so not sure how much I'll be getting on. Ha! I mostly just come on to clear the notifications, otherwise I'll have 200+ added up ever night or every other night.

One thing I can say, this place is never boring!!

Take care of yourselves, folks!
Peace!

its not bad here..only 70 ..but feels hotter when in the sun of course

overall a good day though

did some tie rod ends this morning for a guy i owed some money...good to get it over with now were even stevens

 

andy sheehan, kdka news reporter left his dog in a hot car to die.. fuck that asshole. .

 

I saw that,,,and what made it even worse (to me) he lied and acted like he wasn't gone but like 5 minutes. smh

I can't stand people...especially the idiot ones that for some unknown ungodly reason take their dogs with them when the dog ISN'T GETTING OUT! WTF is that about?!?

and of course there have already been kids dying...particularly in my mind is a kid that was left on a day care bus. My God...I'd tell them to just go ahead and do the paperwork cause I was gonna have to kill somebody.

 

be careful mister or I will cut out your liver and throw it in the pool


I filled my pool with liver from the butcher

following so far?....so their home is on the beach road that is still badly flooded and everyone there is havig a bad time....I inquired to someone there if buddy was able to cope with my mexico friends home being flooded and I was told he has a flooded basement but buddy removed everything to the upstairs and out of danger.....

much valuable stuff including an antique bmw motorcycle that was torn down and in pieces....well.....buddy fucked up and onlyran pumps for a few weeks and did not move anything from the basement.....omg....poor steve....he now has a destroyed basement and they have no choice but to fill it in....12oo foot dream shop down there under the house and its gonne be filled with sand

ayway...they are good friends of mie and invited me to come stay in mexico at the new house they are building...right beside the sierra madres

that's it

 

I won my 18th iRacing race just before when I learned a couple things like, when the end is near you don't have to come in for tires. I had an Australian being a jerk all race and all the Americans were on the radio telling me to dump him because he'd gotten into me a few times in the opening laps. He was the loud mouth Australian type who was like just being an ignorant douche and telling the Americans to get a tissue box. Like I could understand his humor but they could not and anyway he made enemies with a few Americans and on the final restart with 5 to go I radio them from 3rd and tell them 'Hey when you two get into fistycuffs here make sure you take each other both out" which is exactly what happened, they never gave an inch, collected each other off turn 2, I got involved but kept my Mt. Dew truck running and won under yellow. Then an onslaught of profanity from them both lol.

Here's a screen capture of me going over some curbs @ Sonoma where I practice for a league race this afternoon. got the right side completely in the air. XD this is my most troubling corner. I think I take it way too fast but it's a blind corner and you cannot see the corner, the apex or the road once you commit to the right hand, you go up hill and then down and you can't see over the bonnet. So, you kinda just have to time it and hope she's straight when you plant the gas going down the hill.

I'm not too much of a road racer so I don't know how I'll do hehe, but I've been putting in the hours.

Sorry it is sooo big, my normal img host isn't working.

 

looks pretty cool irm, id like that kinda game

 

It's awesome but the initial setup has been very expensive.

It's not photo realism graphics, but there's a lot going on in the game itself so you need a half decent gaming computer to start with, then it's a monthly subscription of about $10US a month, then there are 30+ types of race series, you gotta pay about 11-12US for each mod, each track needs to be purchased at an average of $13US a track. So 13x 26 NASCAR tracks = $338 just on tracks. And that's just the NASCAR top series tracks, that doesn't include local short tracks, road courses, dirt tracks etc.

Once you have them that's it you're all set and they update for free but it's expensive to get there. Then also, don't think you can just sign up and start racing Monster Energy. Nope, iRacing have a lisence thing where you need to progress upwards, I did it quickly because I know what I was doing but some people takes 6months to get the Truck license. I moved from D - B class now so I can run all series.

Mostly trucks are popular as they race every hour and easiest to handle. It's totally addictive when you start though lol. I just think it's so fun like I made that old lady friend in Carolina Rachel Hunt I think XD and few other girls get on and give it a go. I've raced real life drivers.. it's good.

 

Probably feeding the snake with the tongs and it took them along with the rat. That's why you keep your hands away from some of them during dinner.

 

thats part of what slows me on land purchase.... i know i want to be out of an obvious floodplain, but close to water. mostly i look for land along the platte river. found a good deal south of ovid co, maybe one of you wants to go in on it with me? its 5 acres with a house, and a pretty obvious former grow-op in one of the sheds. based on pictures. under 100k.... i find it a very tempting price. we might actually go see it. its THAT tempting. we will see. i want to build my own house, so while the house on the property would do for us for now, i would ultimately build my own house next to/ down the road a bit from it. our house is currently worth more, so we could sell and buy.... or rent out and buy, but then commuting might be an issue.... so much to consider.


and speaking of flooding, finally got enough cloud cover and pulled out the "pocket hose"
uh.
it burst in my hand.
i wonder if i can fix it, but i doubt it. and i just wanted to set up a sprinkler for the kids now that theres a bit of shade in this horrendous heat.
my remaining starts are exceptionally unhappy. they need to be in the ground, with plenty of drink. i already transplanted a bunch of stuff, a lot of which is doing okay, but man. the ones that havent gotten moved yet are in some rough shape. getting some melons started too.

hey irm, if you have access to proper cantoloupes, and enjoy them, would you maybe send me some seeds? we only have muskmelons in the US, which they *call* cantoloupes even though they arent. ever since i heard that i have longed to taste a true cantoloupe. started some ali baba watermelon seeds soaking today to plant tomorrow, gonna leave the boy in charge of that garden i think.

strongly considering just doing row upon row of squashes, at least it would be productive. i have 2 hopi pale grey, 1 (out of 3 planted) jarrahdal pumpkins, and 3 (out of 5 planted) quatemalan squash coming up just on my 3 sisters plot. pretty happy about that. the hopi seeds are nuts. they are thicker than any squash seed i have ever seen, they are more like a bean in seed thickness. i am so excited to see what happens there.
my sweet corn is coming up okay, but the popcorn is having a much harder time, only one sprout... and the rabbits like them. enough of the beans are surviving that im pleased there too. several varieties, really hoping the ones i planted under the maple tree/ bush will grow and use it as a trellis. i picked a bean with vibrant pods to grow there, if they choose to, lol.
i love to grow things. im absolute shit with houseplants.

im going to ask my father for a corner of the family farm. im going to ask to buy the crappiest corner of it.... most gets rented out to a farmer for use, but theres a soggy bit next to the old-ass silo that i WANT. if nothing else i will surely be able to convince him to let me try and perma-culture it. im taking seeds with me. the other family farm, my moms side, is in mississippi, so i cant count on it not being underwater one day, not to mention trop storm/ hurricane risk. and snakes. fuck that.
but nebraska i can do. at least the corn is green.
otherwise i have to look at higher altitude. i can wear extra clothes for the chill, use extra mulch for the arid conditions. but while society is still a thing, id rather not move up that high.

so many things to consider. but all a tedious balance of family members, cost, etc etc. if my mom had an income i could rent her my current home. or if she would live here, we could rent out the "extra" room if we moved out. she needs to be close to town. so much. so much. and i cant remember if i told you guys, but i know i ought to if i havent, the additional opinions for my dad are placing him at "maybe" six months. maybe. maybe thanksgiving. maybe. because cancer sucks, and hes stubborn, and i know. i KNOW i am the one who gets my mom. but shes sober now, so at least thats a plus.
why everything at the same time? crappy. and not stuff i want to consider, but i was raised to be practical. so yeah, whatever the "inheritance" ends up being, i have to plan for that. im weird about money. hubby will spend spend spend in a heartbeat. if *i* get money from family, *i* will control it. and its not going to evaporate, though he will likely bristle at the thought.

just lots to wade through. love you guys.... and anyone wanna help me buy a farm? lol, but no, really. and im especially looking at a certain squirrel who would me much happier out here with the MJ and the space and etc etc... you could give satan her own tiny house to bitch incessantly about, half a mile away.... just sayin'

<3 you guys. you all take the place of my RL friends. but thats disrespectful, you are my real friends, even if we have never met.

 

You do have a shit ton to think about!
