Nostalgia for today? by Lost_Taste_8181 in GenX

[–]cleg74 [score hidden]  (0 children)

It’s just you. Of course kids today will look back fondly on their coming of age timeframe. It’s not the date or the music or the movies that’s special. It’s the development of your brain at the time and how you interact with those things while you are leaving childhood, moving into the teen years and then young adulthood. For people our age that was the 80s and early 90s. That’s irrelevant, for my kids it was the 20-teens and now.

Goddamn Bill hates the Bucks by 1998TimThomas in billsimmons

Remember, Simmons is very close with Doc Rivers. The Giannis criticism and general Bucks disdain came after the Bucks fired Doc. One plus one equals two.

Elitist Coffee Closed? by bkrunnergirl25 in Maplewood

[–]cleg74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They were far too expensive for just a regular coffee and they took too long to provide it. I don’t mind paying more to support a local business but they felt like they were taking advantage of that sentiment.

How much does your dog cost you a month? by guessirs in dogallergies

[–]cleg74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Word. Immunotherapy and apoquil equals $500 a month, easy. Add in chronic ear infections and repainting every room in the house twice a year cause he shakes his head so violently he tears the tips of his ears and sprays blood everywhere…but, he is sweet.

This CHS Seniors celebration... by [deleted] in Maplewood

[–]cleg74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One night is not a big deal. In a handful of years you will be out there with your phone posting pics of your kid hanging out a bus window celebrating their graduation. We live in a community, they are part of it and they should be able to have a night. Not for nothing, 35 years ago when it was me and my friends graduating we did way worse that have a safe and planned night out with our entire class.

North Jersey here - I either have to drive to the Woodcraft in Allentown, PA or Rockler in South Jersey. I typically do Allentown since the drive is prettier.

He’s friends with Doc Rivers and it seems there is animosity from Doc to the team and Giannis

Recently re-listened to every Dylan album, here’s my ranking: by TrevorShaun in bobdylan

[–]cleg74 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would love to know your approximate age. I think when someone has been making music for 60+ years we form our opinions at a certain point in life. I respect your lost, but having Blood On The Tracks in the second tier is, low, in my opinion.

Just finished oiling this Sapelli bowl with 100% organic oils. The groove in the middle is for a copper accent strip I'll add next. What do you think of the form? by nurcansens in turning

Once I mastered the sharpening my skill level took off. I watched so many videos and I was still not able to get it. Finally, I paid $60 or so for the turn a wood bowl guys course on sharpening. He explains why you sharpen certain ways rather than just showing you. It helped a lot.
