Back before passports, I was leaving Canadia and answered a similar question in a similar way. Don't do that at the border. In fact, my autistic bits were tingling, and I was trying to determine the exact meaning of the question.
Trillian the black[meth]lab used to eat electrical cords. Live ones. Headphones, prescription glasses, a cellphone... I was probably nearly $1000 into a free dog.
I used to put the tree up to the accompaniment of the Grinch. It's probably been 40-45 years since I've had anything to do with a live one, not because I'm some kind of tree hugger, the plastic ones just don't tie your schedule down. My personal record was taking the tree down on December...
Remember, any junction must be inside a box, to keep the five year old girls from taking your electrons. Seriously, if you have a fire and they find two wires in a wire nut hanging out in space, it'll get you a "faulty wiring" ding and just try to have the claim paid by insurance.
Yes, I was going to say, do a detailed survey of what you have there, and look for holes. The Children's Museum would take a batch of kids down to Buckner's cave every year. (insert children's Museum rant) It started out much like what you have there, but if you found the hole in the floor and...
Well, there was that one (sorry, bad wih names) and those crazy kids wouldn't get in the running car, but they went to a safer place hiding behind the chainsaws. No, wait.
The thing that stayed with me was Godzilla vs the Smog Monster. Kind of a horror/SF mashup. My poor parents took me to...
I had an uncle that was on one of those LSTs. I've forgotten the number. The crew got their practical training sailing it down the Mississippi River, through the Panama Canal, and across the Pacific to dive in to the island hopping campaign.
I've driven a school bus, and just as we started having twilit pickup in the spring, they flip the switch on us and we're picking up in the pitch black again for several weeks. We fortunately never had an accident, but it was always on my mind. One of those kids shows up in the dark because we...
Tell ya what. I'm a nothing, but not a proselytizing one. I will [stand with the Christians] should the political winds shift in an ugly direction (an allusion you may recognize). So, maybe Jesus has a hand on my shoulder despite myself.
Anyway, I've been through a similar adventure. I had...
And make sure you need to pee before you go to Jungle Jim's. The two have no relationship. Last I heard Jungle Jim's had opened a second store. The guy that started Aldi in Deutschland had two sons, and he split his fortune between them. The requirement he placed on them was that they had to...
Ex BIL was looking at an old factory building for cheep, but that thing would have needed a lot of work. He was promising me a piece or two, but he wouldn't let me have any good bits. One thing he got lodged in his brain was to strip the bars of copper out of the conduit for $copper, but I...
