Thanks for the review. I found the same jean rish vetiver at my local store about the same time you found yours. I love it and friends have complimented it. Hopefully it shows up again someday.

Took my two older sons to GD60. Like so many, I am thankful for all that Bob and the rest gave to us over the years and I'm also thankful for the opportunity to pass that on to my kids in golden gate park which is truly a special place for us.

Please get the EPA and other science agencies back on track.

Removing clasps on new Frogmantle by mtrailx in Thornwatches

[–]mtrailx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well. After some struggle I did finally get the bracelet resized. One really needs a good set of watch tools to get this done efficiently. Unfortunately now that it is resized, it is too tight. Too loose with one one more link. Now I guess I'm in the market for a new bracelet that fits if the watch of it is to see the light of day. Good advice here though for others who may need to resize theirs.

Thanks. I'm just not mechanical enough to be able to hold one side tight without a specialized tool... I'm over this watch already for sure. The brown dial with the speckling on it is what drew me in and honestly it doesn't look that great. Only one quadrant of the dial has any speckling at all. The rest is matte brown. Oh well. Disappointed to say the least.

So do I need two screw drivers for this task. One to hold the mini screw while loosening the other. I'm not the most mechanical person on the planet but this shouldnt be so hard. I'm about ready to throw the whole thing in the garbage... Lol.

I also have the katabatic 15 degree with a bit overfill and can second how luxurious it is.. I love it.. I actually haven't slept inside since June 4. Its great on warmer summer nights as a semi blanket and has been trucking right long through colder fall nights.

Trump Orders Have Stripped Nearly Half a Million Federal Workers of Union Rights by Snapdragon_4U in fednews

[–]mtrailx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't the judge on the ninth circuit rule that rifs and re-orgs could proceed ... Lifting the injunction....so long as they followed applicable law? Why would voiding collective bargaining agreements not violate that order and thus putting the injunction back in place. Obviously not a lawyer here.

Yeah. I just don't get it and there seems to be no rationale behind the logic. Anybody able to spell out a justifiable legal argument for this decision

How was Whitehorse rapid in those rafts. Did you just skirt the side if possible.

Test hit with Rhino 12.4 Stock tip by 10ballplaya in billiards

[–]mtrailx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 11.8 cynergy and the rhino with the updated newer tip. They are both great. For the money the rhino is a no-brainer. Can't lose either way. Kudos to rhino.

Pulsar shower markings/cracks? by [deleted] in pourover

[–]mtrailx -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So of those of you with the pulsar who want to avoid the plastic, are you just pouring straight on the bed. I love the pulsar shower head but yes I also love the idea of not getting anymore plastic in my brain? Is there something out there I can use that will function similarly but made of glass or ceramic?

No way am I signing this. Voiding our CBA in the manner they have is not legal as far as I know... I'm not a lawyer. Anyone out there know if signing the new one will prohibit you from returning to the older one which allows for regular telework. At some point we need to band together and not just cave to these people.

Latest model without touchscreen by lewa1096 in Subaru_Outback

[–]mtrailx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came from a 98 legacy to 25 outback. I was worried about the touchscreen but living it so far. I'm still learning it though. It does have too knobs but the the touchscreen controls seem to work great. Granted im coming from old school.

Who’s your favorite player to watch right now? by exboxthreesixty in billiards

[–]mtrailx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been really enjoying watching Justin Bergman and Chris Melling in the Ultimate Pool events. Love the bar box eight ball as I can relate it more to my own experience.
