I was born in Tucson in 1968, went to CDO and UofA, but this list is the first time I’ve ever heard of Valley of the Moon. I missed out all these years. 😢
Conservatives: “Let the free market decide!”
Also conservatives: “Not like that.”
Iowa republican caucus voters were polled and 30% said they wouldn’t vote for trump if he is convicted. Of course, the election is months away, so too many of them will surely backslide, but still. It was a higher percentage in New Hampshire, too.
Could be. My tines are ever dangling.
We’ll just see about that.
Seems like I should be able to buy my own medical debt for pennies on the dollar.
More than 26K rape-related pregnancies estimated after Texas outlawed abortions, new study says
Hm…I seem to recall Abbott saying that if the abortion ban passed, “Texas will work tirelessly to make sure that we eliminate all rapists from the streets.”
I can see that. Probably our skin oils working the same way as the veg oil.
Apart from my first DE, a Maggard MR5, all my razors are vintage. It’s really interesting to explore all these different kinds in the thread.
Hyperbolic headline. His speeches “aren't demanding the world's attention like they used to.”
Ah, the old ‘60s/‘70s repub-demo switcharoo!
That’s it?!
How so?
SCOTUS is going to have to weigh in real quick if they don’t just stay out of the whole thing.
I love mine. I had a Pebble, which I also loved, but the Apple Watch merges pretty seamlessly with the rest of my Apple stuff, and has extra features my Pebble doesn’t. I think they should either pay a usage fee to Masimo, or change their software. They’ve wasted enough money and time fighting it.
Pseudo-obligatory Johnathan Frakes asking What the Hell...?
It gives me great pleasure that I requested this montage on reddit and General Pedrowsky compiled it within just a few hours.
Undermine democracy?! Gtfo with that bullshit.
Sidebar: use vegetable oil also to clean sap from your skin.
They don’t want to disturb the graves around the monument pillar? Grind it down to its base and put a bronzed Union boot on it.


Here, chick-chicks!


Some little chickens I just turned. Inspired by Andy’s Cornish Creations, from L to R: birch, Myrtlewood, some kind of rosewood (we think), and maple.

I bought some wood at a woodworker’s estate sale. Can you identify the species ?


The guy’s children were doing the sale and didn’t know what this is. It was too beautiful to pass up.
Here’s another angle. The pics are really close to the actual color.

A Smile Bandsaw Box Just Finished Today


I just finished this bandsaw box today; my first serious attempt. The Smile Box design is originally by Parillaworks.
Mine is white oak, with an American cherry drawer pull and Myrtlewood feet. The box was finished with Danish oil, and for the pull and feet I used walnut oil.
Apple Watch for scale (I just threw out my last banana).

QUESTION: Does a table top really Need biscuits/dominoes/dowels, or is glue enough?
Assuming proper alignment, is clamp n glue of the planks good enough joinery for long-term stability?

New bench. My third in two months, and feeling much more confident.


2x4s, mdf top, pocket-hole screws, (some pocket-holed and some counterbored).

Towel rack for the pool area.


Saw it on the Kreg site and mostly followed the plan. All 2x4s with pocket holes.
