I really miss our used book store. It was tiny but packed, and it had that smell.

Some buddies and I actually got an old firebird with a blown head gasket for lemons. Got it running, and then realized how much more we would have to pay for all the safety gear… We were still willing but had some disagreements for who was gonna pay what when and so the main backer pulled out and the dream went up in smoke…

Listen, Im over here wearing my floaties, watching sales people doing a triple gainer off the high-dive. I’m not trying to pretend to be especially good with the social skills. All I’m saying is water is wet. Some people have an affinity to those sorts of skills, some don’t. Some people work at it. Some can’t. Everyone has to at least bathe though. That’s a metaphor, but also not.

Why do you need to be forced by society to develop social skills?

Social skills is another way of saying the abilities required to function in a society. You might as well ask why do you need to learn to swim to get in the pool.

Why isn’t putting your best forward enough?

Often it is, but to stretch the metaphor used above, they are going to be stuck in the shallow end.

hey! I resemble those remarks!

My brother loves his xterra so much he is on his 3rd (first was an accident, second went to the ex in the divorce). I rarely ride in it, but it seems kinda like a rattle trap to me. I dont know how much of that is his abuse and how much is the car.

Super cool. Working on some ebeam sterilization stuff through contractors. Cool to see the nuts and bolts.

because only product being irradiated goes there. no human should be in that area. plus with the lights off you see the ionized air. that would probably be washed out with another light source.

I saw somewhere there exists a saying along the lines of ‘start sauteing onion, add some garlic, then you figure out what you are going to cook.’ When my wife and I have time to actually cook, this is basically what we do. everything is better with garlic and onions, from German to Korean. The rest is just details.
