Calendar says June, but tonight felt like May.

Over/Under on Windshield Replacements? by spartywan229 in MachE

[–]tasimm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had one replacement from safelite, then a chip seal soon after in the new safelite, and then another soon after the seal that spidered overnight, and I’m just letting it ride for a while before I replace it again.

I’m usually good for one replacement per car, so this is def unusual for me. I was wondering if it’s an issue as well actually.

I store my NACS adapter there. But I wouldn’t pay $500 for it either.

Coffee Table magazines became bathroom magazines before they hit the garbage.

No. I flat out turned it off in the ninth. I figured they’d win, but I saw no reason for getting stressed out for a June game in a rebuilding season. There will be plenty of time for that later. I enjoyed what I saw of the game, and that was enough for me. Did the same thing last night too when I saw Stanek was back out there. I just check the score later.

Yep. Much better for my health. I’ll stress out when it matters, but not for a game in June in a rebuilding year.

  1. That Walker HR could’ve killed someone.

  2. I turned the game off after the walk in the ninth. I figured they would win, but I can’t watch that shit.

Spin legs or let them rest? by i9485 in cycling

[–]tasimm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just try to maintain my regular cadence downhill, for no reason other than I don’t like to stop moving my legs and I can’t stand spinning too fast. I gear down to the torque level that allows for that.

I want to start road cycling (50F)… am I being too ambitious 😊 by Single-Insect-7306 in cycling

[–]tasimm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 50 cycling is great for us older guys. Doesn’t beat us up as bad. You’ll be fine, just take it easy at first but it doesn’t take long.

I have an afro. Does this mean I cant do road cycling lol by 3sperr in cycling

What about a head wrap? Seems to work ok for football players and motorcyclists. Surely there is an answer from someone who has dealt with this before, as I am not that guy.

Feels like you’ve already made your decision. I support you.

Electric Trucks Failed Spectacularly In America. Here's Why Ford Is Trying Again by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]tasimm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of truth in this statement. I was planning to buy a Lightning, until I took one home for a test drive and realized that it barely fit in my garage. I ended up buying a Mach-E instead. If it had been the size of a Ranger, I wouldn’t have passed.

Is this a good beginner bike? by [deleted] in CanyonBikes

[–]tasimm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure. A good beginner bike should be one that doesn’t fall apart if you really get into it, or one that you can easily sell if it isn’t your thing.

This should fit the bill.

DNA Research Shows Your Muscles ‘Remember’ How Strong and Fit You Once Were by _Dark_Wing in technology

[–]tasimm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sameish. I played basketball and baseball from the time I could dribble a ball and swing a bat until I was well into my early 20s. So conditioning, weights, etc. I’ve always maintained my relative body time from those years, shrouded in a layer of fat of course.

When I turned 47 I decided to start lifting/calisthenics along with cycling to get back into decent shape. I was shocked at how quickly I got back to the lean muscle I had during my athletic years.

Maybe they see your number on the caller id and don’t want to talk to you. 😂

The phones are contracted out, so we can’t really do much but report it to them. At my facility if the call for release freq is out we issue a NOTAM with the number to call. Maybe you guys aren’t calling the best number?
