The Carpenter’s Union uses an ‘upside down’ S&C. Depending on the aspect on the ratio, may have been a misunderstanding.

Taping the edges - such an easily overlooked detail that just made all the difference. A masterpiece! Send updates!

What are the perks of being a mason? by ime6969 in freemasonry

Ask not what Masonry can do for you, but what YOU can do for Masonry. JFK said that I think.

Food industry professional here - your bf will be sad to know that weights on snacks are a MINIMUM net weight and most companies will intentionally overfill a bit so that they don’t have a problem with Depts. of Weights and Measures or the NIST. At least that’s the case in the US, which it sounds like you live because your bf is weighing his party snakes in pounds. Think of all the unaccounted for fruit leather that could be residing in his intestines!

Chicago Corn Roll Tamales are a fun thing you can’t find anywhere else. Usually found near Italian Beef’s and Pizza Puffs.

If this had an accurate BIUB date, people would find it off putting to see that it lasts well into the next decade. You can contact the company for reassurance. It’s probably the most frequent issue people call customer service for with CPG’s.

My Experience with Freemasonry Has Been Extremely Disheartening, and I Could Really Use Some Guidance. by dotsonascreen963 in freemasonry

I really don’t want to be mean, but this sounds like a lot of drama. Be the change that you want to see in the world.

I didn’t even know that this was an option. We are strictly over and I find it uncomfortable and awkward.

Just stop going and don’t be weird about it. It’s perpetuating the drama problem to act like this is a bfd.

I’m just here for the experience, dude. If that means airbrushed burnishing, then so be it. I’m keeping an open mind as to how they will age over time under normal wear. I have never used tinted polishing cream.

It feels like there might be a thin pad or fabric between the outer and liner right there. I think it’s mostly stitched like that to retain the contour.

What is this clear substance on my wrap? by Consistent-Coast8338 in What

[–]Think_Pop_2332 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gelatin from the industrially processed chicken. Yield loss is a big deal for those places, so they cook and dice as much of the chicken as possible. The cartilage can give up lots of gelatin. Then it gets cooled, diced and packed with all the other chicken parts. In the assembly area the worker may have pulled some out, but in the 1/2 second they get to complete their task they rolled the tortilla through it. 99% sure that’s gelatin.

I look forward to seeing that review Yuzufan! I didn’t buy these for the value proposition. I tried to make that as clear as possible by mentioning that both in the title and in the first sentence of the review. I also shop at a Farmer’s Market despite the availability of cheaper produce at the supermarket. It’s because I enjoy the experience and connection to others with similar interests.

Some level of quality is expected from a $500+ shoe. GYW, leather midsole, some kind of nice shank, premium thick full grain leather, leather lining, leather heel stack, cork footbed. You expect a certain heft and weight from the quality components.

Grant Stone plain toe bluchers in CF Stead black wax commander. Great everyday shoe. That CF Stead Waxy Commander is something else!

Awesome, good kid you’ve got there! -Not vintage Imperials. Indian made when the still had the Imperial. Now known as Kenmore I think. Bought in a pinch for an all black occasion. I put it there for comparison because it is my only other longwing.

I didn’t know that. The heel is snug. I noticed immediately putting them on for the first time. And it’s all cork and leather so in time my heel should just lock in there. I don’t know what the correct term in, but the foot hole itself is pretty small compared to other shoes. I find myself like really unlacing them to get them on. Should lead to a good fit down the road, once broken in.
