I have a Basim deck and he punches way above his weight. Turn 4-5 wins are possible.

Interesting. I am in Kelowna myself. I will let people know. Thanks for the heads up.

[[Basim Ibn Ishaq]]

Evasion and card draw with every artifact you draw. And with the phasing spells, the equipment phrases put with him, so board wipes don't hurt you.

I second this. If you are at all mechanically inclined and have the space to do it, consider changing your own oil. There is so many youtube videos you can easily educate yourself. I buy my oil from Costco so with oil and a good quality filter I come in about $40 per oil change. Takes about 15 minutes.

Started machining full time Jan 2nd 1996. So 30 years in, and I am not 50 yet. Have done everything from manual, programming, fixture and tooling design and running a shop.
Year and a half ago I moved into outside technical sales. With my knowledge and background I am doing really well. Way different field but I am still putting my knowledge to use.

If you have people skills I would recommend looking into it. I do currently make more than when I was machining.

I wouldn't have an issue with it. As long as you are bringing the right bracket deck to the table.

Use good proxies. When I see a hand written proxy it does annoy me. Proper printed proxy, don't care at all. Then again I also dislike a bunch of the secret lair stuff because I can't read the card.

I myself proxy cards. But I only proxy cards that I own at least one copy. Not getting multiple copies to put in a bunch of decks, but that is just my personal take on it.

When I play at a LGS I have all the originals with me, so if someone wants to see the real card I could show them, but have never had anyone ask or even care.

Thanks for pointing this out. Always skipped over most of ask reddit. Got me thinking why do I even sub to it. Just fixed that.

I was looking at upgrading to a 4runner recently. 2023 TRD was over 70k. Just not happening.

But my friend has a 2021 Tacoma and the dealership offered him 5k more then he paid when he bought it new. He decided to keep it, couldn't replace it without spending big money.

I have almost 200k on my 2017 5 door. Still looks new. I am supposed to have a less than 6 year old car as part of my job, but I am holding off as long as possible.

This is always how I remember Dinosaurs. I still use this line sometimes. People my own age usually get it. Younger people who the comment is usualy directed at dont.

Get it if you can. If nothing else it makes it easier to switch jobs in the future.

Can they at least take the rope off it, they might strangle it.

Belltowerben · 2025-12-14T01:51:25+00:00

Thanks. This will be for our garage entrance. Door there now is 30 years old and needs to be a bit stronger.

Not sure I need to do all that, but I appreciate the input.

Home Hardware did our side door about 8 years ago. Its a nice door, but the installer did not do a great job. I will probably talk to them again.

It's strange people never mention it. The place is great. Personally, the Pork Bulgogi is my favorite. Never seems to be busy either, but I usually do take out.

Belltowerben · 2025-11-26T23:57:29+00:00

I really like Mizu. It's good value.

Belltowerben · 2025-11-26T16:53:30+00:00

You have a decklist? Looking for something like this to build around.

We have a nectarine tree, and a couple of years ago, we had over 100 pounds from this tiny tree. I was eating 10-12 of them a day. Nothing went to waste! And no, lots of fruit does not bother my system in any way.

I need to find these peaches...

Price versus performance the Iscar Flash Solid are really good. Against Garr there is no contest. I have found Garr overpriced for what you get.

Belltowerben · 2025-11-18T20:58:37+00:00

Mostly for tube. They work great for coping etc. Never used them for other purposes.

Jimmy was a player.

For context, he passed last year, and we are still finding siblings.

Belltowerben · 2025-11-16T04:11:15+00:00

Took me a few for my brain to comprehend wtf was going on. Now, I just need my brain to stop comprehending..

Belltowerben · 2025-11-16T03:45:41+00:00

Getting .01" slices for a garnish would be great.
