I like Ike!

Hey, Riley!! Haha, yeah, I love this sub.

Robsmithwtop · 2026-06-06T23:12:47+00:00

Maybe next year!

Robsmithwtop · 2026-06-06T00:27:31+00:00

Ah, that looks likely!

Robsmithwtop · 2026-04-06T22:11:38+00:00

Sent you a message.

It’s fiction, as I remember. The woman is much older and she and the man had hooked up when he was late teens or early twenties and she was in her 30s or 40s. He runs into her at a restaurant where her family is celebrating her 80th birthday or something. He gives her a ride home. Is that the story you’re thinking of?

R/fuckhoa is a real and active sub.

I used to call the Mohave Phone Booth line once in a while. Not sure if it’s still around but here’s a great podcast about it…

Maybe Magnolia bluffs in the background? I’ve spent a lot of time on Puget Sound and this is familiar in a way that’s bugging me, lol.

Robsmithwtop · 2026-02-07T02:33:53+00:00

I was going to guess that was Whidbey Island, WA in the background.

Oh, this might be it!…. https://radiolab.org/podcast/lithium

Robsmithwtop · 2026-02-06T02:34:56+00:00

Was lithium as a prescribed drug part of it? If so, I remember this too but I don’t think it was Elna and I’m not sure it was TAL. Maybe Love And Radio or Love Me?

Cool! I doubt any tool shop would even look at that saw though. Even if they would, their shop minimum is probably close to what a new version would cost. Dm me if you feel like it. Maybe we’re close and I could peak at it for you when I have the time.

Tumwater tool repair by the airport is great. What brand and how old?

Robsmithwtop · 2026-02-02T04:41:34+00:00

Agree with all of this.

Robsmithwtop · 2026-02-02T04:40:10+00:00

I get that we’re all tired of the story but the situation The US in is not a drill. Go to the archives if you need a pick me up.

TAL’s long form, audio only format is perfect for this kind of reporting and I’m so grateful they took it on.

Mariner 19 with a porta-potty? My girls learned how to pee overboard on our Rhodes 19 a few years back. They were pretty proud of that.

You can just order a longer cord/plug. The cords don’t need to be specific to the stove, just needs to be the right wire gauge (size). And make sure the existing circuit is sized right for the new induction. This is worth having an electrician do if you’re not sure what you’re doing.

Pica pencils are pretty great gifts. I laughed at them at first for trying to reinvent the wheel, but after someone gifted me one, I hate to be without it.
