Thanks Doc! and back atcha!

*wanders in, sets saucer of whiskey in the rafters, dusts off bar and sets up breakfast drinks, starts ENECM* Well, if anyone wanders in, please help yourself to refreshments. Been a quiet place here for the most part, but I sorta feel some of the ghosts from the past (literally and figuratively) ma...

*wanders in, set up bar* HI gang. I wish the lost and found stuff was more entertaining.

I'd pull off a good "Skipper", looks and shape wise.

[quote=FIGJAM post_id=1231593 time=1756132317 user_id=39913] Things always slow down in the summer. This year more so. I haven't sold or move a plant in months.

HI FJ!
how's things in the south, and how are the cacti? cactuses?

HI Sput! orphan burn, indeed. I've spent the time at my Hof these last years, with a smile while thinking of all the good times there. And yes, safe travels, to all. Me, too. By which I mean, I spend the time in the crawlspace of your Hof. It's very peaceful this time of year. :lol: I'll be on the ...

I'm gonna blow your mind...

You don't have to idle your vehicle while waiting for exodus to pulse forward. Turn it off. Get out. Socialize with your exodus neighbors.

someone should host Zorb racing during the pulse....

To Joel. Skol.

RIP to Joel the Ornery. We shared some good times over the years. (2006) RIP indeed. He was such an influence here when I first started. Smart and witty. We mostly agreed on social and political issues in discussions here, which put both of us, often as "outsiders", etc. But, he always stuck to his...

Hi. I'm here to offer a farewell to Joel the Ornery. Rest in peace sir. Thanks for the times we shared over the past 20ish years. Wish I had a good toasting image, but I am raising a glass of whiskey to the sky and thinking of you tonight. To Joel! HI Sput! WTAF? I just talked to him last week, wel...

good one, thanks SSE

never too early.

HI BBD!!! well, for me and I'm sure others, your camp is, and always was, a delight. I did love the "Rock your balls", and the other things you made! and a refreshing "Arnold Palmer" was a treat a couple of times. Good on ya, for keeping it all going, and maintaining some of the "flavor" of the earl...

ELLIOT!!!!


nice post SSE. I've often considered attending OCF, just to see what is real and what is rumor. May never do it, but, it's a fun thought.

HI BVB ! good bump, that can be a good thread.

Trilo: If I understand, you all are responsible for maintaining the street, sidewalk, etc?

that's pretty great that you all just "take care of business" in your neighborhood! good on ya! It seems people have lost that, and feel "someone should do something", but, not them. I feel it also engenders "ownership" and sort of brings people together. We need more of that. Relying on "them/they"...

*peeks in, looks around* Hi gang! Patsh: yeah some years, you made a few trips north! It was always nice to see you and visit. Good times for sure! BBD!! Hi!! good to seeya poppin in. I'm glad to hear you camp is still coming back. And you've linked up with some great folks. Good for you! How long h...

Hi Patsh. yeah, bear grass. lots of them scattered in the lodgepole pine and fern forest in that area, it seems. And all in bloom. I hope the sequoias do well. I have two I planted about 6 years ago that seem to be doing well, and in the general area, the lumber company planted some in their replant...

yeah, I can relate to the heat intolerance. So, it's hotter than usual? seems that's a hot place, anyway? Assuming you still live in the same place, that is. yeah, you may have to develop some desert gardening techniques if you make it more of a hobby. Are you on a well? So far out summer is not too...

Yggy, how appropriate!

ha ! yes. well, "appropriate" is a seldom used term in reference to my actions, but thanks.
How's things in the desert?

So... I have one ticket (in hand) available to be purchased. It's at the 750 level. I'd love for it to go to someone I know, but that's not likely to happen at this point. If you (or someone you know and trust) are interested, please send me a message. I'm sad not to be attending the Burn this year...

HI mmsj2u glad you stopped in. yeah, loss is tough, and we need to deal with it in whatever way we can, and works best for us. There are no rules. So do what you gotta do. RE Trilo's conversation: Ha, back when I did granite counter tops, I had a rule for my helpers, when on the job: "if something g...

it's so nice to have communications with workers. I rarely hire any for anything (obsessive DIYer), but, when I do, it's nice to hear how things are going. Also, when I do work for others on monuments, I create an email thread and advise them and or send photos, as I start and progress through the p...

HI Sput!
I found a gin: Empress.
it's very good, and a nice lavender color, so makes a very festive looking GnT.
