TSCLT 7.0: Hemis, Harleys, Hooters-n-Harridans

[Luk]

Not even hashtag believes I'm Rob, Queef. Reflect on that.

Tweak has too many years playing this lame canard, too invested in the lie to give it up now. Liars believe liars

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Home/motel/home-away-from-home. For the next several days.


Allegedly, a plumber will be out tomorrow to get to work on the leaky drains. I'll believe it when I see it.


And, if Wat can juggle all these running chainsaws and get them to fall just right, we'll get this bitch ready for the inspection next week.


All praises to Allah, if it be his will . . . .

 

[bellisarius]

I'll light some joss for you.

Nuked food for me tonight, except for the salad. It's what you get when you forget to take something out to defrost and you don't want to hassle the after work traffic.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy payday Wednesday!!! Juggled a couple of dollars, you know, like the rich folks do. And the alleged rich. Like the weasels mock.


I do miss the josh. Any help in that department is appreciated.


Woke up working in the middle of the night but was able to recenter and get back to sleep successfully. Hate when that happens, but it's the price of having a mind that thinks all the time. One of the good things, minds like that figure out everything.


This OS, the one this ratty-assed thing will allow, really blows.

 

[Endrura]

Coffee and more coffee will be the desire of the day.
Caught up on some tv last night, a couple of episodes of Mr. Iglesias, it's another remake of Hanging with Mr. Cooper and Welcome Back Kotter but it was fun and I will probably keep watching it

 

[bellisarius]

Morning Wat.

So I guess today's wager is "Will the plumbers show up?" and if so, "What time?"

Range day here. A pre-fourth extravaganza. Even remembered to load up my Bug-be-Gone juice. Snake boots may be in order as well. The wet winter and spring have produced an explosion of rabbits, hares, and ground squirrels which means there'll be snattle-rakes a plenty to watch out for, the coyotes give the place a wide berth.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Morning, you two.


I know - coffee!!!


I have done no "meaningful" TV viewing in weeks. I'm not even sure what I'd want to watch if I did.


I could get behind shooting something. We'll see on those plumbers.

 

[bellisarius]

Actually we leave the snakes and coyotes alone. The rodents are a far bigger problem and threat.

As an aside, I've been ordering Brownell's 20 rnd. alum. mags for the AR. They have them on sale now ($10) and they're a hell of a lot better than the 30 rnd P-Mags that Magpul has been selling at fire sale prices these days. Magpul wants $14 for their 20 rnd offering.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Like the old GI mags?


I have one of those, and it's bulletproof.

 

[bellisarius]

Like the old GI mags?


I have one of those, and it's bulletproof.

Exactly. I'm building up a stockpile while they're on sale.

Because the P-Mgs are plastic they have thicker walls and require a little more precision on insertion and will sometimes hang on release. Not so with the Alum. The 30 rnd. mags can be a pain in the ass in the prone position too.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yep, 30 rounders suck in prone. A fellow shooter took pity on Junior and gave him a spare 20 rounder, and it's still in my stuff.


I looked into modifying a 10 rounder, and it's just too big a hassle for dubious probable results.

RIP, Lee, and even though you were Ford guy, you managed to keep Mopar afloat, because if you hadn't, we have been cheated out of some great SRTs and Rams now. Bon voyage.


And I'ma bon voyage to the weasel viewing grounds . . . .

Promotions
Better job positions
Better tips
Treated better in the general public
Big boobs are idiot magnets but they are effective

But she's done nothing with them!

That's the part I don't get.
Also, she's not that bright


and it's hard to pull her face out of her phone.
The girl is addicted to texting; I won't even go to a restaurant with her any more...

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Home/motel. This is the cheap night. They charge double tomorrow, and it goes back to normal on Friday. It's what they do here in the Highlands for holidays and race weekends. The races I get, and I guess the rest is just Asshole Tax for holiday travelers. Now I know.


No plumbers. Allegedly, Friday. I'll believe it when I see it. There was a battery of e-mails flying about with who said what and what was said and what there is. Wat had to sort them motherfuckers out. Guess who the source of the confusion was? That's right, Maintenance Boy. I'm pretty sure he could fuck up making a Kraft Single sandwich.


Made some headway. Have a list to work. We're gonna do everything we can as fast and complete as possible and let the inspection chips fall where they maybe, potato or buffalo.


No matter, because Life goes on and none of this will mean anything 10 years from now, so . . . .

 

[bellisarius]

Pushing the crew is the only thing left I suppose.

Sounds like they have a prince of a maintenance guy. I can't help but wonder how much he 'thought' was agreed to wasn't an action item for him?

Beautiful day at the range. Just enough of a breeze to keep the gnats away. Didn't have to break out my "Deep Woods" shit. I don't like using it, it just can't be good for ya. But the gnats are worse so what ya gonna do?

I'm halfway through another receiver. Using a different technique this time around. It's actually going smoother,, well, now that I got the little gotcha's worked out. Going to have to order a new end mill. The one I'm using will finish the job but I dulled it up a little by trying to run the mill to fast. It also goes a little quicker if I hold the cuts to 0.015". More depth adjusting but faster cutting. When I finish this one, on to the AR-10.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yeah, the prince is really a piece of work. He lies, bitches, plays the Blame Game, leaps to erroneous conclusions, hates this complex and makes no bones about it, wises off to tenants he doesn't like, and maybe is hitting one of the crazy wimmins up for head or something. I mean, there's no reason to be around this woman at all. Wouldn't surprise me in the least.


And I thought I had avoided his dumb ass today, until I walked outta the box store and saw his van. As I left the parking lot, I realized he was following me.


So I engaged in Evasive Maneuvers and lost his dumb ass.


Off for the night . . . .

 

[bellisarius]

I had a bad experience with a maintenance dude on a rehab project I was honchoing some years ago. He ended up getting canned, but not until after the damage had been done. Some weasels are harder to trap than others.

I might try to find a way to create some mischief tonight, or not.

 

[SpeareChucker]

Happy Fourth to y'all...

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Thursday, and Happy Independence Day for whom it applies. As for the rest of y'all, try not to rattle your chains too loudly and annoy the rest of us.


Damn the torpedoes, have a fifth on the fourth!!! Altho' I think we're mostly 750ml any more. What the fuck ever.


I'll be damned glad to catch up on my sleep. I don't get it, because all I'm doing lately is working and sleeping. No matter.


The coffee is a homer this morning . . . .

 

[SpeareChucker]

I am not even planning on fireworks this year...



I do have some two-year old mortar shells somewhere in the basement.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I may blow something up today.


I'll probably claim that it was an accident.


No, it'll be easier to behave, and it'll take less energy, too.


Cunt-be-arsedness . . . .

 

[SpeareChucker]

Someone is serious about their gaming...

 

[Wat_Tyler]

She may have all of mine. I'm over it.


Mom went to visit the cats yesterday. I thought that that was awfully nice of her.

 

[SpeareChucker]

I've never been a real big gamer.
I've played a few of them, but I can take, or leave them.

Programming is a lot more fun.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I missed the fun in that, too.


But whatever floats your boat, so to speak.


Human beings like results.

 

[SpeareChucker]

The watch is a distraction.

At first programming was a serious challenge, dealing with limited memory and computational power. The last big program I wrote was a memory hog and more like a tinker toy assembly because of a prewritten toolbox of routines...
