With my family being dominantly Irish/Scottish(practically 50/50 split on that, with others mixed in), there is bound to be some weird shit in my family background.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2016-01-18T16:55:12-05:00
The one death certificate that really showed the differences in era between then and now is the one where the guy got his head run over by a backing up dump truck. It's an accident, yes -- but the death certificate has to mention the name of the driver and the fact he was black -- almost implying it should be his fault or something.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-18T17:06:54-05:00
I wonder if they arrested the black guy even though it was an accident.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-18T17:09:27-05:00
GM, that's perfect for 100,000! That's like exactly what this entire comment section is in a nutshell.
I realized something weird about my family. Of all 3 sets of grandparents (my dad was adopted as an infant), all of my grandmothers are directly German and all of my grandfathers are from the British isles, 1 brit, 1 irish, and one scotch-irish. So I just say I'm half german half a conglomeration of the british isles. I just thought it was weird how the genders were perfectly ethnically split.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-18T17:10:20-05:00
Ok, now I got to go somewhere. Glad I was here for the 100,000 hype though. I wonder how much I'll have to catch up on when I get back; it's been a busy day.

there are whole rafts of food that people only ate because that's all they could grow. Toss enough sugar or seasoning on it, and you could possibly eat twigs and leaves. Zucchini, squash, mushrooms, pumpkin, etc. all are pretty much non-edible.

Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-18T17:34:31-05:00
I normally think of nasty vegi's as things like lima beans, fidler's greens, and such. Squash was something that my parents never liked so we didn't have it growing up, but I've discovered that I really like it! Butternut squash soup! Speghetti squash, acorn squash, all so good! I copied a restaurants idea for a chicken alfredo that had roasted fennel and carmalized butternut squash in it, so good! I am honestly confused about why squash is a miss for so many people.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-18T18:06:27-05:00
Because squash is Satan's dong, as LZ said earlier.
And Lima beans are great. Nothing better than succotash!!!
Eggplant can go into the Satan's dong category with zucchini and squash.

@BaKhan: I ended up backing out of the Guards of Atlantis project, the exchange rate just doesn't help with that. And I do need to stop spending more on KS. Saving is priority right now with the way the economy is going.
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-18T18:32:33-05:00
That was a great game! We won 3-2 with 15 seconds left on OT
@geist- agreed. I gulped down some red wine at work, took the nearest subway (though longest commute) now I'm home. I want to work on one more shelter, though. I made five of them, plus the doghouse. I wish there was a way I could keep their water from freezing (without buying a heating coil). But o think I've done a pretty good job for these babies. Sad news- I haven't seen kittykitty in two weeks. :( I hope he just camped up elsewhere. The teenagers were kind pushy.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-18T18:56:23-05:00
@Creeper: I hope kitty kitty is snuggled somewhere safe at least. If New York feels anything like D.C. he will need an extra layer of fat to help keep him warm.
All the cats have put on their winter weight. Kittykitty is smart- doesn't trust humans or anything that could be a trap. So I'm hoping he just found a different place to stay warm. But I still can't help but worry. I was his foster money for over two years. I really miss seeing his face. :(

Poor kitties. It's one thing to know your really old cat that disappeared just before winter is probably dead, it's another when your mom and brother finally find the body.
Creeper, you're his foster money? Can i have some if he's not using any?
Well, that's not the most positive of thoughts there, zem. I'm sorry you went through that. But maybe not bring it up when I'm worried for kittykitty.
And yeah-that was a typo. Foster mommy.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-18T20:29:08-05:00
No, ours was already pretty much waiting to go. She was really old and already conquered our entire property and drove off the neighboring cats she didn't like, so I think she got fed up with the pains of being an old outside cat and the boring monotony of nothing to do. Kittykitty is a young, tough cat in a big city with lots of warm places and plenty of food and people to give food. I'm sure he's well enough off, though the territory disputes of teenagers might've put him off so he just left for a short time and will check back in the spring.
Powers of Tesla 2016-01-18T22:23:04-05:00
Sorry to post and fade, I had to prepare the beer/cheese/broccoli soup for dinner and then spend some time with my wife.
The house is progressing well. Nothing was done today, I'm guessing because the high today was 9 degrees. Hopefully our wood flooring will be delivered tomorrow and have a week or so to acclimate to the inside temperature. We should be getting paint on walls, tile and wood flooring installed, interior doors and trim over the next several weeks. Still need to get the exterior siding finished. We are on hold until spring on concrete and asphalt. I can see the finished project now and I'm getting impatient. I need to work on that.

@PoT, congrats on the progress of the house! Depending on how demensionally stable the hardwood you've chosen is, you may want to aclimatize the wood for a longer period than one week. In Calgary it is very dry so the manufaturer recommends up to six weeks for anything other than red/white oak, hickory, or maple. Just something you should look into. The waiting period will be longer or shorter depending on how much humidity is standard for your area, the more humid, the less waiting time. If you don't properly aclimatize the wood, it may curl, cup or shrink, depending on what kind you've chosen. Just looking out for my KC brother!

If you think about it, assuming you have a 2,500 Calorie intake per day, pretty average, that means you're burning enough energy to raise 2,500 liters of water by 1 degree celsius! Another way to think of that is raising 1 liter by 2,500 degrees! I'm not wrong in that, am I?

That look for a cat kind of reminds me of a few cats we had. Mostly Bobby and White Socks, BM (before Marble and her lineage). Marble and her family were really colorful, though, so I'd almost forgot our normal looking kitties before her a LONG time ago (her name even came from how her colors looked like paint marbling in a mixer). Heck, even Prr and Grr looked a little like that, 2 daughters of Marble. Thor, too, one from another cat we got after Marble's family left. And Thor II, after Thor died as a kitten and we found a stray kitten almost exactly like him.
With my family being dominantly Irish/Scottish(practically 50/50 split on that, with others mixed in), there is bound to be some weird shit in my family background.
The one death certificate that really showed the differences in era between then and now is the one where the guy got his head run over by a backing up dump truck. It's an accident, yes -- but the death certificate has to mention the name of the driver and the fact he was black -- almost implying it should be his fault or something.

And why not one day earlier on the anniversary?

Another kitty gone? What are they, celebrities or something? That's too bad.
Thanks, Geist
And one of the Eagles?! 2016 can suck it!
Maybe Henry the Hoover doin' lines will cheer you up! http://9gag.com/gag/aNnAZbG
@LZ, So sorry to hear that! T_T
@LZ: I'm sorry to hear about the loss of the fur baby. Just goes to show, 2016 has started off REALLY bad. And if it doesn't turn itself around, it will be boycotted!
I'm voting for a 2016 redo! This is bs we can't start a year this way!
@BaKhan: Not redo, mulligan. If we redo it, we have to live it all over again(loss and all). Mulligan gives us the chance for things to change.
If you think about it, assuming you have a 2,500 Calorie intake per day, pretty average, that means you're burning enough energy to raise 2,500 liters of water by 1 degree celsius! Another way to think of that is raising 1 liter by 2,500 degrees! I'm not wrong in that, am I?
I'm home now. Rafiki was definitely hit by a car. The driver didn't stop.
I'd rather redo it and not have them die than mulligan and have everyone already dead from this year. Harsh winter, huh?!
LZ-sending you some kitty love.
He'll keep Gir some company. That was your other baby's name, yes?
@Creeper: Thanks. Yes, the other baby's name was GIR.
So quiet today. After yesterday, I know you have more in you.
Hi LZ. I just saw the post on FB and wanted to offer my condolences. Sorry for your loss.
Thanks, PoT
LZ......so sorry.
It was back in September that I got an email, asking about getting in on the testing for the app. I would have totally done it, but it wasn't for androids.
Meanwhile even if I had known, I don't have a good phone.
@LZ - I think you may have mentioned this- but Leo and rafiki have almost identical markings- only Leo is grey and white. But they have the same front paws just dipped in white paint, and the back ones submerged in paint. :) same chest markings too. Awh, sweet baby. I'm so so sorry that happened to him. :(
Even famous kitties aren't safe from the curse of Jan. 2016.
That look for a cat kind of reminds me of a few cats we had. Mostly Bobby and White Socks, BM (before Marble and her lineage). Marble and her family were really colorful, though, so I'd almost forgot our normal looking kitties before her a LONG time ago (her name even came from how her colors looked like paint marbling in a mixer). Heck, even Prr and Grr looked a little like that, 2 daughters of Marble. Thor, too, one from another cat we got after Marble's family left. And Thor II, after Thor died as a kitten and we found a stray kitten almost exactly like him.
