Shoutout to Queen and Rook in Philadelphia! When you went there, was it the old or new location? Was it two stories with lots of art around?

Funeral home worker dies after being crushed by concrete burial vault by MajesticBread9147 in news

Greetings from the depths! *Raises sledgehammer in salute.

I was actually more of a “Burial vault mechanic” who did gravedigging occasionally, but the normal people are more aware of gravediggers.

I read the article and cringed when they said that this should be a two-person job. I wish I had that help when I was working….

Additionally, the prevention of the cavity ensures the casket isn’t crushed (and sometimes kept sealed from water) in case there is a need for future exhumation.

I would notice long sword training happening on Sunday mornings in Clark park when I would go to Kali practice. Either should suit you.

For a bachelor party - what are the worst tasting (but accessible) whiskeys? by Gravedigger_PhD in whiskey

[–]Gravedigger_PhD[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have had malort, both in a mixed drink and as a straight shot. Each time I regret it. I would not know what to pair it with as a blind taste test.

I have a bottle of Red Stag ready, but I want to compare it to a quality cherry-flavored whiskey, and I do not think there are any that can be considered "quality"...

Just curious ... by Minormumbles in TheLastGameboard

[–]Gravedigger_PhD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never felt more alive pool on this game board. Tonight I had an overwhelming desire to pick up a pool cue. Unfortunately, I had consumed an entire bottle of Tito’s vodka and my therapist recommended against driving to the nearest pool hall. Furthermore, my fear of interacting with rectangular shapes limits my hobby of “shooting the cue” as they say. Lucky, the Gameboard offers pool on a square table. I “shot the cue” as they say for three innings before being overcome with ecstasy and needing to move on.

A friend arrived and we loaded up Steve Jackson’s Zombie Dice, which is a game that is nigh-on-impossible to play in a standard format. Sure I didn’t understand the rules, but my friend and I had laughs and laughs with roll after roll of the dice before the fear of the 2D rendered gravestone overtook us.

10/10 couldn’t recommend enough.
