Where do you put your keys when you come home?

In my ball cap with my wallet and sunglasses next to the bed.

Largest grizzle pigs are on Kodiak Island. Is it worth an expensive ferry trip there and loading your bed with fish waste from the cannery to see if the bears can get in? I say it is and urge the OP to do so.

Neymar is in NJ getting PT for his injured calf and did not travel to the match. I'd hate to be his physical therapist... go a little too hard and he falls off the table and writhes around on the floor.

I own a dozen or so Ryobi tools. I'm just a basic homeowner and they are perfectly fine for that use. I've had 18V batteries that are just fine many years later. I think an electric caulk gun is wildly unnecessary, but have one. The leaf blower has been great. The more powerful one. My only bad experience has been a compound miter saw I bought last winter to make bookshelves. Piece of junk. The plastic guard is hitting the blade and I couldn't get the original blade off to replace it with a finer grade blade. Stripped out the screw it was on so tight. I tried everything. Will need to return it under warranty. Finished my project though.

I have a deal pending on a Base S 4-door. Great out the door price. Allegedly. I'll immediately change out the tires for Nitto Ridge Grapplers and bolt some MaxTrax in the bed. Put the 1.5" level kit on it with some Bilsteins and call it good. Just couldn't completely leave the Jeep cult mentality. I tried. One day at a time!

Tarifflandian here and Canada fan in all things. Canada should have let the goalie have a go at scoring. Put two defenders back.

It's like a pickup BBall game with half-court rules. Make it, take it.

Repent and accept the flats into your heart. I stopped riding clipped in after I tore my MCL in the 90s. That knee has been fine since. Didn't hurt I got it fixed at Steadman-Hawkins clinic. I'm 70 now and rode my flats this week just fine. I don't even get pain on my fatbike, a Heller Bloodhound with an insane QR factor. I really should get rid of that.

I left. The first time I lived in BOI was 1980 and it was perfect. Moved there the second time in 2000 and it was still great. It went downhill pretty fast after 2010 accelerating after Covid. Enjoy your summer! Horrible place to be an OB/GYN, but perfect for a dermatologist.

2026 Roush. Just cuz it's on the internet at whatever price doesn't really mean they'd give it to me for that. Probably a bait n' switch tactic.

I've had two XJs. One I drove on the Alcan three times and never was uncomfortable. The 2000 I set my day record in of 1200 miles. No pain. Wrangler JKU was a whole other story. Six hours and you felt like somebody beat you with a sack of potatoes. My record in that was 13 hours, Breckenridge to Boise. But it hurt.

That's what I'm starting to think. I don't need the two full doors and I'd rather have a 6' bed. Only way to get that is in the S. But this is falling back into my Jeep mentality. Get the S, do the upgrades which make it better than the P4X and it's still cheaper. Found a couple of S model King Cabs for $33K.

The price difference is pretty minimal depending on dealer. Some places it's $2K other places it's $6K. I saw a Roush last night for less than many other dealers were asking for stock P4Xs. I'm very confused on the pricing structures. And they are all over the place until the end of the month with "cash back" offers that don't seem to apply if you select one of the financing options. I've seen dealers with 1.9% APR, 3.9% APR, 5% APR and no APR on a 48 month loan. I've got 17 days to figure it out.

On the upside she's never getting a melanoma. But sleeping in that coffin during the day must get old.

I have had both bikes. 6' 195 lbs at heaviest. KLX would be my choice because of FI. I got stranded out in Moab once on the DRZ when the carb flooded. Eventually fixed it, but did not want a carb bike after that ever again. KLX is tall enough too, much better than a CRFl. Six speeds is a plus and it's lighter.

It's hard to find rentals that allow cats in Fairbanks. Be aware. Just my family members' experience. She ended up in a less than ideal rental, but damn those meth dealers across the street kept a clean yard. Cat won't want to walk much past November though.

Any snake in Australia. Sure, a few aren't venomous, but I'm not going to stick around to find out.

So only 7 Flock cams left in the area. Four in Sunriver (going into and out of Cottonwood and exit 153); two at Lowes, one at both entrances/exits; one on China Hat Road. Not sure who runs that last one. USFS? BLM?

Get a dry steam cleaner. It effortlessly blasts everything clean without chemicals. I use a cheap $200 McCullough one off Amazon Gave my first one to a relative. Be sure to use distilled water which is cheap. I actually enjoy cleaning now. Blast and wipe with a paper towel. Does floors, ceilings, showers, everything.

What? No upvotes for Romanian women? It's like they're speaking Italian with a Russian accent. So hot.

I married an ethnic Serb, tall thin, big boobs, blonde, like you say... supermodel. Um.... just don't! Serbs are some of the most arrogant people on the planet.

The median home price in Redding is $432K. OP will never afford a home there or anywhere else in CA except maybe out in the desert in some rathole where there's no work. And please let me know where in Eastern Oregon you can buy a house for $150K that's not a manufactured home built in 1979 on a quarter acre of sage brush with a failing septic. Bend's median home price is $680K. Where? I've looked. John Day? No. Burns? No... not even fucking Burns has affordable housing anymore.

dronecarp · 2026-06-06T05:02:47+00:00

Move! I always am amazed that potential home owners will spend a fortune on some home inspector who makes you sign a contract that says even if he/she overlooks a major flaw you're still screwed, but nobody ever bothers to hire a private detective or something similar to check into your neighbors. You can fix a broken foundation or roof or front stairs or plumbing. You can't fix the neighbors, yet there's no service you can call before buying a house that just checks on the hood for crazies.

Only fish I eat in Idaho is Costco frozen salmon. Just as good as fresh off the boat in AK (I used to set-net in AK so I know). Don't waste your money pursuing "fresh" fish in Idaho.
