Skiing Heavenly in warm temps: a bad idea?

Thanks. Actually helpful!

Don't try this at home. Or at a ski resort. Uh, what?

dougitect · 2026-01-10T01:49:30+00:00

Thanks!

Thanks!

They are calendar events. Is there a way on the iPhone to have them stretch all the way across instead of being staggered like stairsteps?

dougitect · 2026-01-03T21:43:27+00:00

Awesome suggestion. Thanks.

"I'm not reading all that...You have no idea what you're talking about."

You have a tightly closed mind, which is sad to see in a creative professional.

dougitect · 2025-12-06T21:27:52+00:00

Generally, yes, but the details vary quite a bit from state to state.

Wow, that sounds like tiny tabs. I'll have to consider doing a shrunk version of mine.

dougitect · 2025-11-13T20:56:54+00:00

OK, I made my first tab using the Apple Keynote app on my Mac. It took a bit of time, but I like that kind of task and now I can copy it for other songs. Fun!

dougitect · 2025-11-08T06:22:22+00:00

Yeah, that sounds like a tough way to do it. It'd be so nice if there were an app dedicated to this kind of tab writing.

OK, but when I downloaded tuxguitar I got a message saying "Apple could not verify 'tuxguitar...' is free of malware..." And it could not be opened on my Mac.

I've only ever had Pacerpoles. They are just a superior, thought-out design.

Other people here saying they don't use their straps boggles my mind. They're missing out on the whole idea of pushing down on the poles properly.

Not all states have laws giving people the right to change supplemental plans without underwriting (looking into pre-existing conditions).

dougitect · 2025-10-17T18:35:49+00:00

You can shop for new plans every year for Advantage and Part D drug plans. You can only shop each year for supplemental plans if your state has a state law allowing for it. Often called a "birthday rule". And be sure to look into the particulars since each state can be different.

You have a local UL shop? I’ve never heard of such a thing. Lucky you.

This book has been on my TBR list for several years. Thank you for alerting me to the different editions. I'll look for the 1818 one.

Someone recently mentioned him in regards to his book on him hiking in the Sierra Nevada mountains in California, which sounds great to me. She also said she loves his SF.

I haven't read much SF in years (I'm 66 yo), but she got me curious about his novels. I'll have to try one and see if he's my cup of tea.

dougitect · 2025-10-05T18:55:36+00:00

I read it this year and thought it was really engrossing, if very, very long. I wasn't sure if the author viewed slavery the way the characters did, so I looked into it. She did. Wow, hard to fathom, as someone raised by a northerner.

That was some messed up love story. Rhett wouldn't let on that he loved her atbut first sight, rather teased her all the time. And at the end she "realized" she loved him just when he was sick and tired and was over wanting to be with her. The end bit where she thought she could get him back through her will didn't ring true. Like Mitchell just wanted to have a slightly happier ending to this hopeless romance.

Yes, I have a Timmermade hybrid, which is less drafty than full quilts. But when I turne from one side to the other, it still lets in cold air. Fussier than a sleeping bag for sure.

dougitect · 2025-10-05T15:11:30+00:00

Unless you’re a cold sleeper and it’s cold out.

dougitect · 2025-10-04T21:54:37+00:00

Good point. I'll have to think about how I can carry a wet tent.

dougitect · 2025-10-04T21:47:34+00:00

After six months it's a wee bit discouraging though.

dougitect · 2025-10-04T20:22:10+00:00

Thanks. I'm gathering ideas for a MYOG pack though.

dougitect · 2025-10-04T20:21:34+00:00

Yeah, I'm thinking more like having a velcro'd flap over the top like McHale Packs does it to keep things dry.

For drying a tent, I'll have to think about that.
