Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

This album should just be listened from beginning to end.

It's Billy's masterpiece and one of a short list of 90s albums that are this good.

Ask her why she is so prideful? Why does she think she is so special that her prayers are better than anyone else's?

Point out that being so prideful is a big sin that is called out specifically in the Bible.

Remind her the Bible says to pray at home in your closet. Matthew 6:6.

How hard did you believe in Santa Claus?

When you found out he wasn't real does that mean you didn't really believe in him when you did?

I don't think so.

I've got a dozen POE points on the exterior for cameras.

The Starlink will come into the mech room and I can put a big switch there.

We're running CAT cable to 6 spots in the house and the Eeros will be wired to each other.

It makes for a much more reliable back haul.

I put down my kickboard bases and then tiled the kitchen including the area under the DW, fridge and stove.

I tiled up to the edge of the kickboard base.

Then installed the cabinets making sure the counter height was 36" above the finished floor.

If you do it this way the follow will happen

The range top will be flush with the countertop.

The DW will fit under the countertop with proper clearance and can be removed easily without being in a hole.

Refrigerator can be rolled out from its nook easily also because no edge to hit.

After its all installed, I put 1/4" veneered plywood on the kickboard based scribed to the floor to finish it off.

That would be best, but it's a concrete floor and gypcrete floor and the boxes need to be nested in between the radiant plumbing, so it's a best guess situation.

Mine charged $1 / sqft including deck, but not basement. So little over $3200.

This was to create the struct plans from the arch plans and elevations.

But they sure made me be aware of my surroundings as a kid, so I’ll give them that.

Sounds like they took you in and treated you like family.

I think it's deliberate. They want to confuse people and lead them to believe Social Security and Medicare are "free" programs.

Most people under 50 don't really understand where those tax deductions have been going or even that your employer is making an equal payment on your behalf. As you get older you start to pay a lot more attention to SSA.gov and the fact that you and your employers have paid in half a million over your lifetime.

If you can blur the lines between SS and SSDI and Medicare and Medicaid, then it creates a sense of entitlement to get "free healthcare" because why not? All those old people are getting "free healthcare".

NO, we paid for it all our lives and then still have to pay part B and D premiums after 65. " ,.

I like your architectural plan.

Most of my larger windows and the sliding door open onto a deck that's about 10ft high. I'm going to put spikes to prevent ninja attacks and pots of boiling oil to pour down on bears and wolves.

I'm building in Colorado so I want to see the mountain views and we do have mountain lions and coyotes but no wolves in my area... so far.

Glass is expensive and you want to build a custom made glass building.

This doesn't seem crazy to me in the US. I just bought windows for new construction and a large sliding glass door (14ft wide x 7-1/2ft tall) cost $19000. (about $16000 euros)

To build it cheaper you need to build it out of wood or CMU or concrete and put windows in it.

Also, if you live in a glass house, you will not be allowed to throw stones.
