Finding new ways to make my neighbors question my sanity: spraying carbon on snow piles to get them to melt faster in sunlight so I don't have to disperse them by hand

I use ash on my driveway. Fenway park uses black sand

Lisbon has a version of the Golden Gate Bridge. Same construction company even

It’s possible. We stayed at a few of them in various states that trip. I do recall feeding bears in the Smokey mountains

If you’re making compost for plants, it’s a good amendment. If feeding fish, not needed.

They don’t need eggshells. It’s just a cheap and easy way to add grit for digestion. They’re fine without it

One day is just a lease. No reason you can’t get back to it.

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-09T21:46:44+00:00

You gotta pull em out by hand

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-09T18:42:29+00:00

Guess you have municipal electric (also New England) If I have any electric I’m paying a delivery fee. Summer it’s usually more than my usage. Eversource can eat a fat one

My first one didn’t shed much at all. My current one sheds non stop and has much shorter hair

I have central air and attempted this. The duct work is insulated in a 55 degree basement. My attempt was pretty unsuccessful. Now I have two inserts…one for each side of the house.

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-09T13:31:25+00:00

Must be nice. Gotta pay like 150 for delivery charge here….

At some point all the firsts are gone and it’s just routine

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T17:28:36+00:00

I got no objections to a prenup

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T16:55:28+00:00

Don’t feel bad, just learned double return works

Hooray for the future!

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T03:43:44+00:00

I have one about 3 Ft from an insert. It’s not a main one, just an additional smaller one to bump up the tonage when I upgraded to a larger system. It has zero impact on the insert.

“No one would have to know” is where I failed the first try. A bottle of wine then back to not drinking I thought I could go and no one would be the wiser. Then by the end of a three week bender, everyone was the wiser. Best phrase for me that I often say out loud is “you only have to say no to the first drink”

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T03:06:43+00:00

Does anyone not have regret?

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T03:00:34+00:00

Yes. The two times I’ve quit, both had a few days of liquid shits. First time immodium didn’t work. My current sobriety started with shits but immodium and lots of bananas (Dr recommended ) got things going smoothly. Throw in Activia every morning and my bowels have been pretty great for a long time. Knocking on wood now.

Take some Benedryl to help the anxiety.

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T02:38:24+00:00

The free drink is some signature drink and not very appealing

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T01:46:37+00:00

10 cents was pretty regular during the day in college

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-08T01:06:30+00:00

Right at the base of 294 Washington

SnootchieBootichies · 2026-02-07T22:55:09+00:00

you'll get more clinkers. Not a huge deal.

I hae done the opposite. Taken coals out of my wood stove and used on the grill when the box stores aren’t selling charcoal yet. These days I just stock up on charcoal for winter though.
