And how! I've stopped looking at it all together, just way too frustrating.

I don't think so. I have thought I could talk sense into various on-line idiots (remember rex?), but my hopes were dashed many bitter years ago.

The Person Below Me is about to search on "rex." (and perhaps will be bitterly dissappointed.)

I search on shipwrecks and get really excited. It's really hard to get me excited about anything.

Yes, but it's items for cooking dinner, not for Bman. So far.

Pink is pink is pink. Calling something pink that isn't in fact pink is just name calling and flat out rude.

As odd as it may seem, no. (I'm still full from taking myself to Chili's for ribs-- and the free birthday brownie with ice cream and chocolate syrup!)

Not so much avoid, but the big sound camps are not something I seek. I was glad to visit Root Society last year for exactly 2 songs. I was glad I went there.

Hopefully it's better than the talent show we've had on the ticket threads this year.

No. I'm currently listening to the soft hum of the window fan and TheCO's trying to fall asleep noises.

:shock: WTF?!? And a requisite OMG?!? People actually do that?!? Why I would never!!! (note lack of question mark in that comment, I used up my quota).

Last year our neighbors covered their burn scar with playa. There was charred wood, glass and metal in this pit. We were aghast and helped clean it as best as possible while our Luvable Mayor Lora, GKOTU, in Kidsville got Rangers out there to inspect. I understand it was going up-channel to the BLM to fine the hell out of the dipshits.

TPBM doesnt even use rebar.

So correct! 12" nails, or military 12" pegs, and if they aren't sufficient, 5' T posts.
