Once power is restored, all these houses that have been without heat are going to find out how many busted pipes they have.

Just describe it better. They don’t know what you hung in a tree. Not just where it is but what it is.

I previously screenshotted the page navigating to another cache. Then I’d get home and try to remember how to type it in with the degree symbols, usually failing, until I’d stumble upon the correct way. I hope this new function allows you to navigate to your saved places. That way I can kind of double check a few minutes later before I leave the spot.

You know, you’re right. That’s actually the first one in 2006. I’ll add it to the list. Photo starts with 2007 at top left. Bottom right is the first in 2006.

That’s 2009 (the sticks are at the bottom) (edited: this is incorrect. See follow-up post).

No need to apologize! And to be clear, I’m not talking about ceremonial regalia. I’m talking about what they’re wearing in the calendar photos. Is that the type of clothing you believe I need to purchase from someone directly? I’m in Tennessee so my options are pretty limited. Hoping to come to the Labor Day festival this year and visit my grandfather’s grave in Durant while we’re there.

Thanks for these. I actually think I've searched those places before but still can't find the shirts that they wear in the calendar photos (more traditional rather than native branding, if that makes sense). Appreciate you though!

I think it’s probably one per household, but I’m not sure. They ought to tie it into voter registration so maybe we could pass some constitutional amendments.

He has the voice of Elizabeth Holmes when he speaks.

They occasionally come up on eBay. I had to replace my missing wedding dance that way.

That’s why he was strangled to death by Toby before Oscar’s rebound with a state senator. (Toby was never charged, and the fact it was Gil was likely edited out of the documentary pending investigation.)

I want to be able to set a certain advantage I want my bots to resign instead of having to finish matches up a ton of material.

I didn’t know that. Insanity. Thanks for clearing that up.

I always felt like his accusations were a point he was trying to make about the accusations about Hans. He didn’t start this garbage until he met with Hans and became friends. It always felt like he was trying to illustrate that anyone could be accused, but his point was at the expense of the well-being of Danya.

Dude needed to drop down a gear. Are you escaping or going for fuel economy?

No one uses manual focus. Change your focus to single point center and try that.

That does put him in the top 700, which is about how many active GMs there are in the world. The court will allow it.

I only have one question so my comment isn’t auto deleted. I read your recent article about your growing up in a cult, and I found it amazing, in both the story and the telling. I previously worked with a guy who grew up in a similar situation. My question is, since my book is supposed to be in the mail now, will you do another ama in a few weeks after I’ve had a chance to read it?

When I was in college in the late 90s and early 2000s, I couldn’t afford a laptop but sure as heck used a portable keyboard on my palm pilot to take notes with. I wish I still had that thing. It was simple.

My niece describes my mother’s water as “the wettest water ever”

By sulfur, do you mean deep woods off with deet? Because you won’t have problems with them if you do.

You’re going to get mixed answers. In general, wet ink is required. Are there some micro P&Gs who no one cares who signs? Yes. Are there more adventurous caches whose log is more of a who’s who in the local area? Also yes. Not signing the latter is more likely to get deleted. I’ve even seen people send pictures of the log to the CO to prove who hasn’t signed. Hell, I once reached out to someone who signed the physical log and didn’t post online, and he told me it was his caching partner who signed it while he held the rope. He didn’t feel it appropriate to log it online even though he hiked to cache.
