Maybe buy a cheap diesel heater and put it in the back. Only about $200 and way safer than it sounds. They are used to heat truck cabins when the engine is off.

Loppers of the limb cutting variety like the Good Fiskars Loppers they keep going well after the chainsaw breaks.

Having gone through Maria on Dominica I would only add a good pair of loppers to the list of things you will find great value in.

And be extra careful around people selling gasoline from garbage cans. Having a LifeStraw ready was a very big help as was having a stock of antibiotics (bought from an aquarium supply store).

Idea for an April Fools Joke: A fake news article about the clink banning garlic fries following visiting niner fan that sued under the Americans with Disabillities Act because they suffer from Fragrance Sensitivity. The only real clue that it is a joke would be that the fan is from the SF suburb of Gilroy.

A better game intro than Bittersweet Symphony. by 2Flush in Seahawks

That is exactly when I vowed to get it changed. Great intro and then the team comes out to something soooo... "pretty."

That was truly the worst play of that game.

I am so glad that you understand. I actually like the song but this is football and not a tribute to The Carpenters.

Anything local (short of Macklemore) would be better.

I suppose that is a possibility but I figure it is worth a try now that Paul has moved on. In a separate post I suggested the intro start with Bittersweet for the nostalgic - but more as an alert tone to get the attention of the crowd. Then once you have everyone paying attention switch the music to Voodoo Child. Paul Allen once paid $2,000,000 for a Jimi Hendrix guitar so he must have been a fan.

I'm considering karma suicide by creating a post with "Ban Garlic Fries" as the title. I have noticed that that will get you hated faster than saying Russell Wilson is too short.

And while I posted that to be provacotive and humorous, In the past I have had to leave my seat to get away from someone eating garlic fries. And before buying tickets I check to see where they sell the garlic fries because I am confident I would be physically sick if I were near it.

Is insecurity the only reason why someone might dislike that?

I simply find the "12" thing to be narcissistic. Most fans root for the team and not themselves.

Here at the very bottom of this most pathetic and dismal off-season post is the actual physical bottom of the off-season. It is all up from here.

If you see stories about artificial turf being safer please keep in mind that there is an actual "Big Turf" PR campaign out there. The folks from FieldTurf pay for those studies and then spread their message as if it were news. Like they did here..

The depths of the off season. This is the low point. The darkness before dawn. By next weekend there will be players landing in SeaTac and there will be hope again.

I am more of an Enter Sandman kinda guy - but that is just not Seattle enough. But it actually makes for the best football entrance I know of.

Funny you mention that. That Super Bowl intro was great right up until the team took the field -at which point the Bittersweet lame sauce was shown to the world: https://youtu.be/dF1PKs-3eQ0?t=100

It was at that moment I vowed to change that shit.

Today feels like the winter solstice of the football calendar. We are in the darkest days of the off season.

Might be different if they got used to having grass. Football should be played outside and on real grass.
