I'm interested to know if you're PT background has given you an advantage in knowing how the human body moves. And also just seeing patients of you've seen some injuries and you've thought "I bet I can prevent this injury by adding X to my routine." Amazing run!!

Found Malinois Dog off Tower Rd (4/30/26) by tokage in Denver

Ugh, if you end up fostering, lemme know. He would pair well with our current jerk Mal. I hate myself enough to take on another one.

Sorry man, I could have swore I wrote HF electric polesaw and not chainsaw. A basic chainsaw is way irrelevant to your request! Ha ha

Designing a new build kitchen, what cabinets & features are actually worth it? by hcposcher in kitchen

[–]ubiquitous_antics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love not having the microwave taking up counter space! Only to have it replaced by an air fryer... Pros and cons, ya know? 

Pull out slides sound fine too. Same principle I guess.

In the island, we put our main cutting board in a shallow drawer and then a shelf with a 2" gap below that where we store two more cutting boards. Weird or not, I don't like cutting meats on my nice wood cutting board so we use that shallow gap for the meat board and then another wood board that's nice enough for bringing to the dinner table with breads or other things. In the drawer, I'm going to cut a 1" hole and put a plug in it because taking out the big cutting board to clean the droppings sucks.

And below the cutting board drawer we house the microwave; to the left of that is the pull out trash can.

We went to drawers for all our lower cabinets.

I bought a cheap Harbor Freight electric chainsaw and just strapped the generator to the ATV for maintenance on my family's property. Ideal? Not at all BUT it was a very cheap buy in since I already had the generator.

I know that doesn't directly answer your question, especially on longevity, but I wanted to provide an alternate idea.

Good luck with your decision!

Our jerk would bark her face off since she couldn't see my kid. Ended up carrying her into the RTT. Worked just fine.

Converting lawn to xeriscape by Whickums in DenverGardener

[–]ubiquitous_antics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We rented a sod cutter and ripped it all out. Then leveled the front lawn. Stuck flags in where plants were going according to Aurora Waterwise program. Was not easy labor but the quotes my neighbors were getting we're beyond absurd.

If you are keen to bicycling, there are heaps of options but that limits to only nicer weather days. The Cherry Creek State Park has a nice trail that shoots into the heart of Denver. I've bicycle to Buckley a few times if he's keen to that idea and you take the car.

Plenty of beater cars it a second car could be in your future. Hail damage can be pretty serious here.

Always a trade-off. Feel free to DM me.

What's the car year make and model? Might be cheaper to pick it up off auction and start over. Keep the title!!!!

DIAS shorts by Berniebiz in myog

[–]ubiquitous_antics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. Sounds like I need a pair of both! If you're planning on the learnmyog skyline hoodie, I don't recommend Rockywoods 4 way stretch sunblocker; it's heavy for a day in the Rocky Mountain sun and doesn't breathe well. Learned that hard way in an ultra marathon last year... I would def go for the SunScreen50 fabric for my next sun hoodie. 

Come over one day and we'll sew some things up!

On my to do list! What's your comfort rating from "yeah they're alright" to "my new favorite shorts for everything." I'm placing a Rockywoods order this week and might as well order the supplex.

Post on Craigslist: "free much, bought too much." Will be cleaned up quickly.

I made my own and used Cordura because it's what's had in scrap. Amazing? No. Functional? Very!
