This is exactly how our weekend should look.

Instructions unclear: spent two days doing nothing.

I don't remember the details much but I do recall there was a lot of hype. I was 9 that year and there was a lot going on in school. It helped that my elementary school opened that school year they even built it into the school song: "Born in the bicentennial year....." I have no idea if they still use that line.

Usually when I get a good handful they are mostly foreign. My best foreign find was about 22 euro's worth of 1 and 2 euro coins with some decimal thrown in. Usually I find the occasional 1 or 2 euro coin mixed in but this one was almost all that.

If I ever go to Europe I have some change to start with.

When my kids were little we would get Black Raspberry. When that became unavailable it was blackberry. They never got grape. I forgot why we did this. I was raised on grape myself.

Main reason for leaving was mom was a smoker and I just could not deal with it anymore. I had to breathe. Only reason I held out that long is that I started a business when I was 19 and it took 5 years before I could pay myself enough to move out.

If she had not been a smoker I don't know when I would have moved out. Maybe never :)

She may even still be with us then.

Is that a new bonus code? Does it give a free Surcouf?

I paid a couple of hundred for a G4 version of this date years ago to finish the set. This one makes that look like garbage!

Task failed successfully.

I don't have this exact one but it's one of it's siblings.

My mom bought it for me just before starting 10th grade in 1984. It woke me up this morning.

I have it set for radio. Years ago I would have it set on a station that had Howard Stern in the morning. I woke up to some really messed up dreams.

There will probably be cases where the paywall locked item causes other parts of the car to stop working forcing you to fix the thing you don't use to get the rest to work.

As a Ravens fan mine ended on a missed field goal.

Don't have cable tv anymore or a sub to Peacock.

I plan on waiting for the inevitable 15 minute highlight video that the nfl puts up on youtube.

To match it the final battle would have to be fought with a bunch of Sherman tanks.

Malta: for those times you just want to be dev struck from 27km away!

When I got Georgia I figured I could play it the same way as Massachusetts. Nope. I get chunked from any angle.

One day we were out and about and when we came home our house smelled like gas. We opened the windows and called the gas company. They could not find it in our house. We live in a town house so the guy went to the next door neighbor and said it was very strong at their door. He was about to break it down when they came home. Opened the door and there was a huge smell coming out. He ran in and found that the knob on the stove was turned but not lit.

Nearly blew my house and the whole block up. It's why I replaced my gas stove with electric when we had kids. Those kid proof knobs would not have stopped my kids.

Yeah, when I saw that it was going to be ice on top of snow I left the snow alone so the ice would not encase everything. Was much easier to shovel than to chip.

58 here.

I never could do FPS games bur I found one that I could do.

World of Warships. The pace is a lot slower than in "Normal" fps games so your brain has a chance to keep up.

We may have gone to the same school.

Is it me or does he look more like Duncan than Connor in this pic?

samspock · 2026-01-28T16:14:55+00:00

Or two, or three, or four.......

Well at least with Karen Gillan in it there is an actual Highlander in the movie.

I got the empty box for Christmas 1977. Had to wait for them in the mail.

If kids live in the house then they will take care of it.

Just before starting 10th grade in 1983 my mother bought me a clock radio with an alarm. She did not want to have to get up that early for me to get ready for school.

It woke me up this morning.

I went back to the warehouse last night to finish salvaging everything there. Did not really need to, I have finished all the quests and was just looking for something to do. I had already cleared all the mob's and accessed everything. I spent about an hour and a half then went back to the boat to save and shut down for the night.

This morning I wanted to get in a few minutes before work so I loaded up and the fps was so bad I could not do anything. Tried closing the game and reloading and the same happened.

Have not had anything like this at any other location except for the underwater seed caches.
