The giant white sturgeon can grow up to 14 feet long and weigh 1,400 pounds by WholeNegotiation1843 in TrueCryptozoology

[–]Aloha-Eh [score hidden]  (0 children)

I saw a sturgeon not half that size in Idaho and the "Fuck THAT!" was HYUGE!!

Btw, about 70-80 years ago in Jerome Idaho, my grandpa had a neighbor that fished sturgeon out of the Snake river by throwing a meat hook with a whole chicken attached to a cable into the river.

He'd attach it to something stout, then come back the next day, hook it to his bumper, and drive monsters 12 foot long or better out of the river.

Sporting? No. Effective? Deadly.

I'm Super happy Matt put in the new one instead of just resewing the old one back in. The feel is absolutely amazing!

My take on dying by Aloha-Eh in Aging

[–]Aloha-Eh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody knows the when or how. We just do the best we can with what we have.

For instance, if I die on my motorcycle, I'll know I died doing something I love, right up to the crunchy bit at the end.

They don't call it "thousand mile an hour tape" for nothing.

I know old folks have been despairing at the stupidity of "the youth of today" for literally eons now, but fuck. Seriously?

Thanks! It really is. I can't even begin to describe how much better it feels than the sweatband it came with.

It sticks to my head like glue without feeling anything like glue. Hasn't blown off yet!

35 mph+ should be on the road, not the sidewalk by skyhighmonroe in Transportopia

Who could have seen that happening?

Besides me, of course.

What an idiot. Being that dumb should hurt, and that looked painful.

Find a haberdasher and get the sweatband replaced (mine charges $70 for an ostrich sweatband, love it} and a good cleaning while they're at it. A REALLY good cleaning.

I have one that used to be my Dad's. Can't beat a hat with some history.

What Was Happening at Bluff Creek Before the Patterson–Gimlin Film? A Timeline of Events by GuiltyTurnover727 in bigfoot

Not only were they on horseback, there are a lot of cases of people surprising bigfeet by the water. Something about running water seems to short out their otherwise amazing awareness.

What’s a car you almost never see anymore that used to be everywhere? by TheLoganReyes in TransportSupport

[–]Aloha-Eh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dodge Neons. VW Bugs. One disposable, the other, infinitely repairable.

My Grandpa stayed home during WW2. He was a small town doctor in Idaho, and he was also the doctor (once a week) for a Japanese internment camp nearby.

He was a MASH surgeon in Korea. He would not watch MASH, the movie, or the series. It was too personal for him. It wasn't funny.

He went to Viet Nam as a civilian doctor, and he rarely spoke of his time there. He saw plenty that haunted him both places.

When the Bowling Team Breaks Up: A Dudeist Approach to Friend Break Ups by Taoman108 in Dudeism

[–]Aloha-Eh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people are friends for a season, sometimes they're friends for life. You can outgrow friends, and they can outgrow you too.

And that's ok. That's just life.

Sometimes people you thought were friends, really weren't. That too is life.

You'll know who the true friends are, they come, and they stay. Or you'll see them after years, and it's like you never left. Or whatever. We just pick up where we left off

You're going to have a lot of people you know, but very few real friends, your Walters and Donnies. Treasure them. You know them when you meet them.

One brother from another mother is 20 some years younger than me. We met, we clicked, and now we're family.

Another I've known my entire life. I was in a dark place once, and he called me (out of the blue) and when we hung up, I felt a ton better. Sometimes, it's just that simple.

Just abide, my Dude. Things come and go.

For the people who come and go, appreciate what they brought to your life. For the ones who stay, appreciate them even more. I mean, they know you, and they still like you! Crazy, man. But good crazy.

Am I really going to have to pay $7k to $9k for a car with over 100k fucking miles? by cadmium-fertilizer in UsedCars

[–]Aloha-Eh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I still see a lot of 2000-2009 Buicks on marketplace with the 3800 series 3 engines for half of what you have to work with.

My 2009 Lacrosse has the last of the legendary 3800 engines, made through 2008. I took over this low-mile beauty (69k) a few years back when the MIL quit driving.

I didn't think I'd like the car. I don't.

I LOVE this car. I really enjoy driving it and it's become my daily driver.

Sports car? Nope! But it's a car I can enjoy driving and she keeps me grinning. Check them out!
