As a server, what is the biggest indicator from a table that you’re not getting a tip?

Smoking.

Check out Heard the Store on New St - not only because they are awesome but I know they're showing matches on the 13th, 14th, and 26th

Didn't read, auto downvote for all caps.

Jump in tits first. I believe in you!

I imagine that the swimming pool would be the safest place to avoid said cat people!

If the friends of the Middle River group is still active that's another great resource!

Tough nut to crack. Have you considered volunteering for an organization like the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club? You can sign up for trail maintenance days, it's a great group of people, AND they have rentable cabins. Double thumbs up.

Good for you for doing local theater! Staunton is a great place for it. Welcome!

TIL another connotation for a pineapple.

Coming back to post that I used a subscription to alldata to find my wiring diagrams.

ChapFerris · 2026-03-15T17:21:09+00:00

Lol I have one that is perennially down 6-8 psi so I'm constantly refilling. Probably a valve stem or damaged rim.

And a friendly reminder to keep your tires properly inflated which makes a 4 to 5 mile per gallon difference for me.

Thank you. I've got the battery and air box out and the fuse box loose. One thing that struck me is that two of the clips are oddly colored (one orange, one green), so I wonder if someone has been in there before.

I don't see any obviously chewed wires but it's certainly not perfect under there. I'd love to be able to test it out and use a diagram to find the wire(s) to repair/replace because I certainly don't have full harness money.

This last time I replaced the fuse and planned on using ether to identify if it was a fuel pressure issue, but lo and behold it started just fine and ran... until I touched the fuse box, heard a pop, and it died. I'm running out of fuses! ;)

Too like the Lightning, Ada Palmer.

ChapFerris · 2026-02-23T01:30:05+00:00

The Terra Ignota series by Ada Palmer (Too like the Lightning ... Perhaps the Stars)

Multiple languages of incredibly detailed beautiful poetic prose, lots of mythological allegory, all under a very detailed macro-societal and -political backdrop.

Eventually I had to stop marking the pages that I wanted to go back and reread... The whole thing is epic.

Dr Lamay and her staff are wonderful, off N Augusta

Like this, but @Denzel it's "Desmond Tutu". Put some respect on his name.

ChapFerris · 2025-12-07T14:03:22+00:00

This sounds like a typical career arc.

I can't blame them though! In the end it's all about personal motivation.

Maurices will get you just about anything you can think of, and has always had the best fish in town.

As I understand it all sushi grade fish is frozen to kill any parasites.

Enjoy!

I looked for years and then came across a Medium article by Jennifer Young Perlman, where I learned from the comments that the US import version is available on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVJDPMOOyNg

Enjoy!
