    BTW I got a swarm of these gnats in the neighborhood and I think some others here were sayng the same thing. These bites do not go away holy shit. Itchy AF. I just did that thing where I scratched until I bled and now I’m dying I want to saw my leg off.

    Who heats with wood pellets up in here? I was doing some repairs (the motherboard nuked itself last Spring - I mean a real asteroid strike in circuit board land) on my stove and started thinking about how many tons of pellets have put through that thing since I got it in 2011 - averaging over 5 per year, looking at 70 + tons probably. Feels like a lot - but probably the wood burners here have that tonnage beat easily. It is my main heat source, and I also have oil and mini splits for heat as needed. Hardly use the oil - only when the pellet stove breaks or pellets become scarce. Its pellet hoarding season now - one of the winter leading activities I enjoy - sore back notwithstanding.

    Don’t think so. The cat looks to me a little smaller than the fox in this trials-of-life shot taken from the same camera, slightly different position. No one has gone out there to try to put an object on the same spot as the cat though. More later…

    I was just going through my ipad pictures that have snow or winter tagged and I had better see some this year. I will travel to outer mongolia if needed.

    We are trying to do some science to establish size. I know the property pretty well since I grew up on it. I’m about 50/50 either way and thats pretty much consensus. More later.

    Gives me the shivers thinking about it. I was probably 8 years old using a maul. Never see that shit now. For some reason Dad thought my 6 yo brother should not use it which at the time made no sense to me. Dad preferred smaller diameter trees so we didn’t have to split as much anyway. Green ones. He would burn a tire if he could and in fact one time he lit a railroad tie at a campfire. Smoldered for days. My pellet stove needs a motherboard. I’d rather replace that than split wood any day. I’d better get around to it soon. I have a ton of pellets left over!

    My dad never prepared for winter. We split wood in the worst cold and threw it in the ‘Defiant’ straight away sometimes without even stacking it when we got caught short. He didn’t care what kind of tree it was. My name was ‘Get Wood’ and brother was known as ‘Stack Wood.’ I burn pellets now.

    Maybe they declare an soe, then whatever happens, no matter how minor, they can bill the feds. Like a single culvert clogs and they need an 11 man union crew to fix it for $30k.

    Get in on the taxpayer funded gravy train.

    Well done boys. Darkstar - watch the movie. It was the number 2 top grossing movie at the box office that year. Number 1 was Star Wars. Humid AF out. 77 degrees. I can’t see out my windows but I know its raining.

    She got the goldmine, I got the shaft. (if anyone can connect that lyric to my name without google - I am impressed)

    Getting dark and I think I am hearing rumbles in the distance but yeah, its coming.
  24. cleetussnow
    Nah. They only do that in the woods. They also don’t have problems with poop sticking to their fur provided there is a rabbit nearby.

    My internet is out. Must be power outages too in places. Maybe thats why the board is somewhat quiet. I got over 3 inches easy more to come.
