I know how bad toe injuries can get. In '88 or '89, while posted in what was West Germany, I had the misfortune to have the baseplate of a 4.2 inch (roughly 107mm) mortar fall on my right big toe. That's roughly 400 lbs of cast Aluminum falling from a height of about 3 feet. OUCH! My toenail is now permanently disfigured. I'll join you in that drink.

*Grimaces*

Ouch indeed! That's nastier then my bump for sure!
My toes bane, was a old diesel pump on a wobbly frame. Foot meets frame, frame tips, pump lands on toe. Have no idea about its weight…a casual guess would be around 160-180 pounds. It was so heavy I almost couldn't lift it off the floor (and my toe ^^') and onto a pallet besides me…

*cringe* Yeah. Sounds about as bad as what I went through. Make sure that the toenail doesn't get deformed. Any open space could lead to toenail fungal growth, which leads to a whole other set of problems. *sigh* I suppose I should get my toenails worked on, when I find the time.

I imagine extratesties would warrant a few follow up questions, I'm not sure what's so philosophical about it though, unless the question is "what came first, the testies, or the extratesties".

Welp.

Funemployment is rapidly running out of fun. Employment should be right around the proverbial corner, but, oh, how I dread it.

*sigh*

We'll just have to see how it all goes . . . .

I feel like CY has a more appropriate alias to ask you how that makes you feel.

BUT
I got here first, so I get to do that this time...
right?

anyhoo...
and how does that make you feel?


So Whingey Wizzard is stuck in a motel somewhere in Arizona, waiting to take his accursed van to the closest Ford dealership tomorrow (because the work they did back in Cali is still under warranty) to find out why the fuel tank they just spent a month repairing is leaking.
Which he only discovered because he blew a tire this afternoon.
He was *supposed* to have been home in time to do bath/bedtime story/etc. with the kids Wednesday night. Now he won't be home until mid-day Thursday at the earliest.

I am sorry to hear that, lisamarlene. Good luck on it getting fixed correctly and quickly.

In unrelated news, I made some french dip sandwiches using Vidmaster7's recipe. It's pretty good. I think next time I might add some black pepper and garlic though.


The first person to eat a hot pepper probably thought they were going to die from having a fiery mouth. The second person to eat a hot pepper was probably being pranked by the first. (Try it, it's soooooo good. Heh heh heh.)


They tell you to not do drugs and stay in school. Unless you are sick, in which case you are told to do drugs and stay away from the school.


Morgan Freeman's kids probably had the best bedtime stories ever. Except maybe for James Earl Jones'.


Let's all take a moment and be thankful that life doesn't lag like video games do.

You are currently far more likely to run a country than a Blockbuster.


What I learned from Breaking Bad.

There are entirely too many bald body builders with tattoos coincidentally waiting for other people when Malcolm's dad or that Pinkman kid want to meet someone else discreetly in public.

There is still one open in Oregon, I bet if you walk in with an offer they won't say no.

Captain, have you ever tried to play a live-action version of Tetris on site with breezeblocks, a big hole and (possibly) some sledgehammers?

Oh lordy. I've got two new babynerds asking to learn to play.


I'm working on the old fart crew today, we're the four oldest people in the company all working together (I'm the youngest).

I'm mostly running materials, they've already called me to grab something essential that was forgotten (skid loader forks).

Eventually one of them will realize they left their lunch at home. You'll get a call.

It's Albuquerque. What else are they supposed to do?

Oof. Getting stranded somewhere in AZ/NM/West TX due to vehicle issues...not fun at all. Here's hoping to no further issues once he's back on the road.

And my technician stationed in Virginia has put in his two week notice. Oh joy. So whenever we get someone hired I'll have to fly out to the DC area for a week to crash-course train the person, and then spend the next 3-6 months remotely looking over their shoulder.

And the final story of the pizzas was rather legendary.

  • "I hate everything other people like" guy doesn't like Mountain Mike's.
  • I tried La Val's. They were closed for their one day of the month. I got lucky because the manager was in doing the books, noticed my order come in, and was kind enough to call me and let me know
  • The kids all said that Papa John's was "the bomb" (which disturbs me), but they only deliver to western Albany (how a place can cut a one square mile down in half for delivery purposes is beyond me. Is the deliver guy on a Segway?)
  • Round Table first didn't recognize my address, so I removed the suffix (for example, "Solano" instead of "Solano Avenue"), and it then recognized the address, but told me it couldn't deliver to my house that night. WTF?
  • Albany Pizza Company mysteriously lost its web site so I couldn't order

  • So I finally gave up and tried Little Star (the best pizza in the area by a mile, but also the most expensive) via TryCaviar.
    First, TryCaviar wouldn't let me order without creating an account, so I put in a nonsense account.
    After creating an account, TryCaviar's web site erased my entire order, so I had to put it in again.
    After putting in my credit card info, I tried to add a tip for the driver. That erased all my credit card info.

    So it was an utter nightmare, but we finally got Little Star pizza at around 8:00 pm last night, and the kids were extremely happy. It's surprising how easy it is to find mediocre pizza, how rare it is to find good pizza, and how none of the really good places deliver.

    sounds like quite an adventure...

    All for non new york pizza.

    When I become a millionaire, I will airlift NY pizza, specifically Brooklyn pizza(the best in NY) to your house. It may be cold by the time you arrive, but cold ny pizza beats warm pizza anywhere else.

    Pretty impressive, Sweden, to make even your friggin' airports so nice that visitors want to visit your country!

    Portugal has already added itself to the loser-list with a little-known 6-month passport policy: If your passport is set to expire in 6 months or less, they won't let you in.

    So, in abject proof that we're living in a plutocracy, the Portuguese Hurricane, who yes, indeed, is the daughter of two Portuguese immigrants (who've decided to move back, hence the trip), had a passport that expires within 6 months. But she IS FRICKING PORTUGUESE!!!!
    But the U.S. Customs Agents wouldn't let her board the plane, citing the rule.

    Cue a few hundred dollars passing hands to grease the wheels and get the U.S. Embassy involved on a moment's notice. I swear they probably have envoys on call 24/7 for EXACTLY such emergencies; I'm sure they're hugely profitable for all involved. But the Hurricane paid enough money that the Portuguese embassy granted a waiver via the U.S. embassy or what not, and she was allowed on the plane.

    So think about that -- if you have enough money, you can be denied boarding for a real, honest-to-goodness law, but you can shell out said money and have them 'fix' the law for you.

    *SIGH*

    And yes, I figure flaming bikes is exactly what the site needs.

    Portugal is notoriously oily with respect to travel. I am not at all surprised money changed hands.
