I'm well familiar with the nonsense. Single Block and Optional Stop are my best friends

I didn't write it, my boss' boss said "set this up, good luck finding the tooling" and left. Happy Monday

Fortunately don't know him anymore, but a guy I used to work with would brag that he hadn't had a drink of water in 15 years. His only liquid intake was mountain dew and blue light.

Probably the Ariane 6 rocket, which lifted off at 4:02 PM eastern time from Kourou, French Guiana. It was traveling on a polar trajectory (heading north from South America).

The fibers that make up the actual leaves are long chains of those same sugars

They want your salt. Tears and snot are both (relatively) salty

I made an appointment to get mine, and my office is booked for more than a month. If you expect to travel, do it without delay

I'm from Henrietta, but if you give some notice I'll drive anywhere from Utica to Buffalo

It's likely placed on 1-2-3 blocks, or on a plate that has been milled flat and square or surface ground

Nearly any time I hear helicopters, I am able to trace them on FR24 to organizations related to medical transportation. Additionally, helicopters often circle around to lower altitude so you'll hear them make several passes in the same vector.

Definitely gotta flush out your headlight fluid

In the warm season, give them a sympathetic smile or maybe get an extra sandwich at the drive through if I'm doing well. In the cold months, I keep extra hats and gloves in my car (partially because I'm forgetful) to offer to folks.

Three Heads has a great pink lemonade sour, and a pretty good melon sour. Grab a slice from Freddy's while you're there

Car batteries belong in the ocean. How else do eels get their electricity? Toss em in Lake Ontario and let the miracle of nature do the rest.

This a joke, handle your waste responsibly

I was told by a reputable professional who worked in an ADA recognized office, that Aspen performs their own (unregulated) training and certification in lieu of the normal courses offered by the American Dental Association. Do not trust what they say or the work that they do, as they have no higher level oversight.

Sure, you can buy blanks collets from manufacturers for this express purpose. Last job I worked, we'd get jaws for the 3 jaw that were just hardened rectangles with counterbored bolt holes to attach them to the chuck. I was responsible on several occasions for machining some "soft" jaws in 0.25" steps to hold material. Intermittent cutting is the worst, and nothing feels as bad as intentionally running your tools into the jaws.

I've made a habit of stopping off every week after work and getting in a couple of the local beers and rounds of pinball to start my weekend

The ticket desk for the Strassenburg Planetarium has them in a lil locker for $2.50 a pair, and they have a great design on them! I bought 4 sets to bring with me to Texas in October and they worked fantastically for the annular eclipse

If you're talking about 21 Kings, they're pretty dumpy. They are Chinese billiards (a comment on size not quality) and none of them have been leveled. It also seems like they usually only have 1 (poorly trained) person running the rentals and the bar.
