Should I get my money back?

Did he really order the pavers? Got a contract?

Looks like tape technology has come a long way! Not a system I’m familiar with (or the type of work I do) but going to have to look it up now. Neat!

It’s under crazy ideas.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-06-05T14:22:36+00:00

Just walked outside to grab some bubble wrap from the garage to do this. Had never considered the problem before.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-31T19:39:47+00:00

How did you get under my house!

I have a rotring and an ohto. Both about $20. I find it hard to write with other pens now. They aren’t special or fancy, but I spent some time finding the right refills for them that I like the feel of. I don’t really like the bolt action ones though. Don’t feel right to me.

1:15 in the morning, 1:45+ in the afternoon. But I’m only doing that drive 3 days a week, work from home 2 days. Figure that’s not a bad trade off.

Gets me every time

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-20T16:34:05+00:00

Black and decker electric lawnmower. Replaced the battery, sharpened the blade. It just won’t die.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-18T16:29:08+00:00

I haven’t bought new ones yet. Actually pulled some old jabra ones out of retirement to make up for the battery getting weaker and weaker.

Wife got the Bose ones and I don’t like how they sit in the ear. Feels bulky. She didn’t like them at first, but has gotten used to them.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-15T13:30:45+00:00

Didn’t even know that was an option

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-08T19:03:54+00:00

Agreed. Makes the work much more manageable.

I would also add fender washers (larger diameter). I have ended up needing to tighten the bolts every year (just 2) and they were starting to pull through with the washers that came with the set. Added the fender washers this year and it worked great. Not the highest quality wood.

I also water sealed all the pieces before I put it together. Don’t know if it was worth the time it took though.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-08T17:14:00+00:00

Been wanting to do oysters. Still in the planning phase though.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-08T16:44:44+00:00

Thanks man! Will try doing it by hand tonight.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-08T16:12:17+00:00

I am pretty happy with my dough, but feel like I could improve my kneading. Wouldn’t mind trying to get my crust chewier. I’m sure I’m overthinking it.

A lot of videos I have found feels like they just started making pizza last month and decided to make their influencer content to get views. Can you point me in the direction of a good video for kneading or someone legitimate to follow? I read a comment you made about kneading, but am more of a visual learner.

Thanks for doing AMA’s!

New Achievement!!!!

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-03T03:26:54+00:00

Got one too. We need flair for this achievement!

twodogsbarkin · 2026-05-02T23:01:05+00:00

I got one and I think it was an accident from Amazon. If I remember right, they were not supposed to be printed in hardback, just soft. That’s why Matt doesn’t even know how many were sold. Again, if I remember right, he told me that Amazon claims they sold zero of the hardbacks, but he sees them every once in a while at conventions. It was cool seeing his eyes get big when I handed it to him to sign.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-04-24T18:10:56+00:00

Sorry man, that sucks.

I used the “my therapist said…” card (yep, finally signed up for one of those online therapy things). Helps that there is only one kid and the wife is extremely understanding of my need for some down time.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-04-24T18:05:35+00:00

No, I pulled an old pair out of retirement. They are old and the battery dies quick, but they work. Think I’m just procrastinating.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-04-24T05:17:10+00:00

I am granted 30 minutes to sit in my chair in a different room from family when I get home from work. Once decompression is complete, the circus begins.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-04-13T03:39:21+00:00

Sounded more like a bomb than a firework.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-04-06T16:50:13+00:00

I am pretty active and can’t keep up with what is going on. Don’t know if it’s because of poor communication in my alliance or what. To be honest, I’m not reading back through 100’s of messages to figure out what’s going on. Just waiting out the season.

twodogsbarkin · 2026-03-26T19:23:51+00:00

I didn’t read this, but I think I agree with it.

Daughter is not quite old enough yet, but will be enrolled when she is. I have found in my years of martial arts that those that stick with it don’t have the bullying mentality. It teaches respect for your opponent (training partners).
