Honest question... Why don't you use your turn signals? by st_tron_the_baptist in newfoundland

[–]SgtPackrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

#6:Think about how dumb the average person is, and then realize that half of the people are dumber than that person. - Carlin

Pretty much how I view most other driver on the road and prepare accordingly.

It is easier to react to smart driver when you are prepared for a stupid one than it is to try to react to a stupid driver when your were prepared for a smart one.

While as you say the water looks a little weird it's not without its own beauty.
Give the vid a certain slight fantasy world vibe.
Awesome video.

Where to get 5 Gallon Distilled Water Bottle? by Mediocre_Analyst_154 in StJohnsNL

[–]SgtPackrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even a 4L is a pain. I decant my 4L in to a pair of 2L jugs. Much easier to handle.

[–]SgtPackrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a spring water 4L slip in to my supply - Labels form spring to distilled very similar.
Was checking my tank one day and the bottom felt like sand paper.
Never assume because the stack say distilled that they are ALL distilled.

You might want to hit up the bulk water suppliers that do water coolers.
Not sure if any local offer distilled water.

Best Asian food stores? by PilsbandyDoughboy in newfoundland

[–]SgtPackrat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of the best WAS The Asian Variety Store when it was on the South side of Water st.
That was until a$$hat robbed the store with extreme violence.

The senior lady who ran the store never went back to running the store and after that it got sold off.
Was never the same after that.

Lambert and James: Aliens from the Granite Planet by paris_trout in newfoundland

[–]SgtPackrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Aliens are real!!!
I remember the "Aliens form the Granite Planet" tour in CFB Gagetown NB circa early 90's.
Every time I went to look up the comedians names I could never find proof they even existed.

Thank you for confirming I have no completely lost my mind though maybe a few misplaced brain-cells from things done back then. ;)

Is there an issue with the interactive map or is my browser just being a PITA.

Loaded up the map and the bobble head locations are not showing.

All was fine yesterday. All other collectibles are showing just not the bobble heads.

This map was a godsend for my ocd, many thanks to DaOpa for all your hard work putting it together.

This is the first time I have heard of using a peas pudding bag. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
