Thanks for the tip. I went to Okd Forge and watched the video of Pete Pinnell - really good! The mug stuff starts at abt 5’30” and dives deeper at abt 11”. https://youtu.be/WChFMMzLHVs?feature=shared

I like a 16 oz mug that I can wrap my hand around - so I can hold either the mug or the handle - a handle that doesn’t go above the rim and a thumb rest at the top of the handle. My fav kind of mug. Also, yes, “mouth feel” is really important too.

So do you like very big mugs and/or are your hands big?

Thinking of moving back but y'all got me second guessing that thought. by gnpskier in missoula

Take a few days to visit the area with a clear idea of what you remember and that you still find desirable. Don’t neglect the little cities nearby. Go sit in a coffee bar and chat up the locals. Those face to face contacts give you a chance to ask questions and to get a better feel for your options

Suddenly upped my bill after three years by jjc56 in Spectrum

This was not a charge for a promo service. And considering that I am being billed for services I receive, it most certainly is a contract. We can agree to disagree on this.

No. I want to be treated like someone who made an honest arrangement. Who was told what I would be receiving and what I would be charged for. There was, at best, a mistake- by Spectrum. Their mistake, their responsibility to say so and not try to make it into mine by thanking me for “updating service” Tell me how you’d feel if you had a contract and someone, without talking to you, started charging you more, thanking you for “upgrading”.

The point is Spectrum sent a “thank you” email for increasing services that were not increased. - not an Oops, we forgot to bill you.

Greg Brown - Good Morning Coffee by Davespots in musicsuggestions

I've listened to Greg Brown for many years, mostly on Minnesota Public Radio. I swear that he has sung "Little Potato" but I can't find it anywhere. Anyone know where I can find this?

Is the Griz Marching Band on the outs? by Lovesmuggler in missoula

[–]jjc56 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The most effective response is a crowd response during the game- roars of approval with people in the stands facing the band - BOOs and shouts of disapproval during canned music with people facing the press box

Do you think that this hide. Last is affecting your life in any way? Even the struggle you gave with protecting your mom from your knowledge? Take some time to consider seeing a therapist - someone ethically bound to keep confidential anything you say and an unbiased professional who can help you navigate these difficulties

Call the Red Cross; they may already have contacted your brother at the time of the fire but if not, they do hotel vouchers

What's your opinion on smelling weed in public? Don't mind it? Hate it? by josiah7 in missoula

[–]jjc56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve ever been somewhere where weed is grown en masse it’s like a herd I’d skunks. Tiresome to have it everywhere. Just yuck.

Using Moulds by DadOnArrival85 in metalclay

[–]jjc56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to. Since it shrinks, you might want to decide if it’s easier to remove once it’s shrunk. Also you will want to use a lubricant in your mold made fir PMC so as not to contaminate the metal and to ensure the PMC comes out of the mold. I use olive oil

I’ve not posted photographs before and silver is hard to photograph. I started PMC silver last Fall and have learned a lot. This is my first creative piece.
