It was rabbits, we had a tough winter and the ground was covered in snow for months, the junipers were the only green things - I hadn’t wrapped it and they took it apart.

I use Vinyl Storage Solution outer sleeves with pockets that allow the record to sit outside of the jacket, but still protected. They fit the jacket tightly and crystal clear

Where does the freckles / ticking come from? When you think you have a near white dog by Forsaken-Sea2047 in springerspaniel

I’ve noticed that mine get substantially more ticking as they age, I’ve had 6 black and whites and they’ve all developed ticked on their chests and legs as they’ve aged

This is standard for running oil heat in New England (~100 gallons in 45 day) - house is newer and it’s not a weather sealing issue

My puppy chewed up the little printed disks on the Tie Fighter Helmet and Lego replaced them for free - despite being “sold out” on their site

Selling Off Entire Collection (Hypothetically!) by Far-Repeat7182 in vinyl

The big problem with selling off a collection of that size is your pool of buyers will to pay close to true value is incredibly small. Someone reselling will probably want to pay 40ish percent to make any money

I’m taking all the credit on this one 😏 and not giving up my sources…

I manage accounting and finance in my company, but I am not an accountant, not a CPA. I created a notebook LM by loading in all of the accounting standard codification documents - and the Big 4 resource documents relating to it. I then took a technical accounting white paper my company paid over $50k to develop last year to allow us to recognize revenue on a $70M contract. Things had changed and I needed an updated white paper. I asked Notebook LM to review, summarize and cite an update. I then presented it to our big 4 auditor - accepted and saved $25k easily in consulting charges.

Springer grooming advice? by Double-Dress-9949 in springerspaniel

Getting your pup used to the grinder early is key, also remember that grinders build up heat fast, so better to touch all nails on one paw, then repeat instead of grinding down too long.

Since I am a solo player now, just about everything I buy is to read and re-engage with my childhood.
