That is awesome.

plus the earth is spherical :P


Oh, it's round enough to be round.

Where'd the Teters hitch? They look rather tropical in that photo.

We are a very good steak company at a decent price. I could recommend better steakhouses, but you woiuld be dropping a $100 a meal.

We use choice cuts of meat and all beef is hand-cut.

All in all, its a very good place to eat at. We are decently priced, but have the same faults as any other chain resturant.

You know, since you live on a main thoroughfare from 256 to US 40, I'm sure I passed by your place three times this week. How many times within a week would it require a restraining order? Does it count if my lady is driving?

It's the same person who told you he couldn't install helpful software at work, and didn't ever consider the fact that maybe he shouldn't post at all from work if he knows he's going to be difficult to understand. The arguments got a little...surreal after your attempt to help. :)

I won't start worrying until you show up in my backyard, looking through windows, and touching yourself.

Actually, I wouldn't like worry at that point either. Who am I kidding?

painting a mini, haven't done that in a while. speaking of which I need to find a good size dragon mini so I can paint and give as a gift a little later down the road.

Reaper is always good quality.

I do not own it, but the Pathfinder Red Dragon is a nice sculpt.

Nah I find it unlikely they will go to a FAWTLY thread in search of a bebilith miniature.

I apologize that I hadn't took a serious dig into it if you've already sent it off. It's been a .... stressful couple of days here at the homestead to absorb it with an editorial chew on the pencil.

No problem. I haven't sent it off yet, so you can look at the more polished version over the weekend, if you want.

I'll send it off late tomorrow night, so Scott can have it in his hands Monday morning.

Hand cramps everyone!

What a morning. Details coming from Treppa in 3, 2, 1...


OK, so we're in a hurry this morning and the dogs are outside finishing up their post-prandial toilette, when I see girl dog rolling all around in the grass, getting herself soaked. I open the door and call them and boy dog bolts in, freaking out. Girl dog comes in snapping at herself. She's got half a dozen yellow jackets burrowed into her fur.

So I drag her outside to try to flick them off, but they're still attacking from their nest in the yard, and I get stung. She's digging them out and eating them and hacking. SP goes to boy dog and sure enough, he's got 'em in his fur in the bedroom. Yay.

We get in the house, get the spray bottle, and scrape the buggers out of their fur, spraying them to keep them from flying, then trying to keep the dogs from eating them while we stomp. Girl dog is snorting and hacking, so we bundle 'em in the car and head to the vet's. They get another couple in the car while we fly down the road.

Vet is out, and dogs are better once they settle down, so we head home and give them Benadryl. Then we get our box and receipt for the prepaid food pickup that is in ten minutes, about twenty minutes away. We get there late and luckily, they are waiting. Head to the store and there's a parade! Yay! No traffic allowed, so no access to our store.

Screw that. Go home, put food away, check dogs, they're happy, head back, still no traffic, park a mile away and walk. We're now open and finally doing some business, but man, do those stings burn.

EDIT: And I still have a migraine (since yesterday). The sting had no palliative effect.

The current version has Amby's suggestions? I saw another announcement of an updated document.

I'm really liking this dropbox. People just need to realize how transparent this sucker is once it's installed. If there are any more interested, please let me refer you so I can build up more free storage.

Talk about literally stirring up a hornet's nest! It sounds like you guys managed to handle it well. I don't know how my g/f would deal when anything harms her precious big baby bulldog. There are times she's like the overprotective mother hen where I want to force throttle her. :p

We hated leaving them alone afterwards, but it's only for five hours and they are perfectly chipper. They've stopped whining, so they are doing better than I. I whine constantly. ;)

And my story does not convey the panic and confusion with hornets in the house and attacking from without.

Oh I don't know, I was pretty panicked reading the story. :)

And it is good to know that stings neither help nor hinder migraines. You know, in case I have that issue in the future.

I'm sorry to hear you had such a horrible morning, but it sounds like you handled it like a champ! Glad to hear the dogs are doing better, and that you have ice on your stings. Hopefully you can get that nest completely removed.
