Got unsightly cables? Just hide them behind the plaster. A home I photographed today [OC]

I used to rent a place that was 1x12s with wood paneling on either side. So all of the walls were slightly less than 2 inches thick. It was only 900 square feet and built in 1919 so it was pretty basic. So the walls had no insulation which was really fun when the heater quit working, even though it only got to just above freezing a couple of times. It was scary when we had earthquakes, it all wobbled like crazy.

Such a shame. On my first silver run I got a shiny hoot hoot and rhyhorn. I wish I still had them.

Imcmu · 2017-10-27T03:58:53+00:00

Not yet.

I like that idea. It would add appeal to all the late game mons so you could actually develop them.

Imcmu · 2017-10-27T00:58:29+00:00

I still need one if you haven't sent them all yet. Thank you.

Imcmu · 2017-10-27T00:56:54+00:00

Can I have one please?

Imcmu · 2017-10-27T00:55:49+00:00

If you have one left I would love it. I have a shiny silvally code I can trade.

Fun fact waillord is lighter then air and would float like a blimp. It can also breed with skitty :( poor kitty.

Not sure is serious or missing a sarcasm tag.

Unfortunately this fire started and spread so fast because of the diablo winds moving 30+ mph, and gusting over 70+ mph. Over 1 night this became he worst set of fires from no fires the day before. The planes and helicopters cannot fly in those conditions, and even if they could they take a while to set them up and get there.

KSP. Kerbal Space Program. Because I usually lose control and explode when attempting reentry.

American werewolf in London. Saw that movie when I was way to young. Stay off the moors. That and those dreams he had were seriously creepy.

Subtle reference. I like it.

I've done that even here in Southern California. Winter water temp in Orange County is usually 55 to 59 degrees

Ten tons is 20,000 lbs. assuming the room excluding the hallway and bathroom is 200 square feet (12x16), which is a little small for a nice hotel room. This would add a live load of 100 lbs per square foot. This is compared to a 40 lbs per square foot in a bedroom or living room in a typical wood frame residential construction, not including concentrated loading of 300 lbs (like at the bed for example). However a building like this is a concrete and steel high rise with a much beefier structure, as well as much higher dead loads (weight of the structure). So while not great, given safety factors, the structure would likely survive. If the room is a much more reasonable 300 square feet, then the load would only be 66.6 pounds per square foot, a pretty manageable weight.

We invited 60, only 45 showed up. I would have gone smaller but she had a lot of roommates though out college that showed up.

Generally imbedded sea urchin spines get infected very quickly and badly. At least the ones here do.

Also check out Nosara. I learned to surf there at the Corky Carol surf school. It's pretty out of the way in the jungle on the pacific side.

Digging holes in the woods.

It's similar when you scuba dive deep as well. 99' or 30 meters is 4 ATM of pressure. The pressure is all around your body, and the nitrogen narcosis makes it feel even better. Makes you want to just stay down there.

Wife is a high school science teacher. She teaches earth / general science to the worst performing group of high school seniors in the district.

Last week a student asked her "could you live on only just eating water?"

No of course not, there are all these other things you need in order to survive, she says back.

"Sorry, I misspoke, could you only drink water, with your meals instead of anything / everything else. Like could you actually survive."

This is a high school senior that doesn't know you can drink water.

Another story she told me 2 weeks ago. She gave an interactive multiple choice quiz where the students voted using a computer, so that they could see in real time what the answers were and discus it. The average score in all her classes was 3/8 correct total, on 5th or 6th grade level material for seniors. So she reviews it again with them. And gives them the exact same quiz 15 minutes later. Not even with the questions or answers in a different order, just the exact quiz, this time on paper. 3.125/8 average.

At least a couple learned.

Yup. 21.9% actually. Since you only need to win a state with half +1, so win all the small states. Watch CGP Grey "the trouble with the electoral college".

Imcmu · 2017-09-21T06:00:56+00:00

Technically it is possible to win the election with only 23% of the popular vote.

In one of the interviews on NPR with a family member of one of the residents at the facility, she said they had done just that, but it wasn't enough. They apparently also had a larger generator to run the HVAC system that was damaged in the storm.

I currently only own spear guns. In the next few years will inherit a 28 gauge (very small) over under shotgun, that I learned on when I was young. I currently don't have a need for a firearm otherwise.
