It came out well but not a pleasant experience, almost impossible to add and fine detail.Quote:

I would say this is good if you have an outside of work relationship with them. if it’s only a work friendship I’d give it a couple of weeks.Quote:

After being cut-off/unceremoniously let go, I would think a friendly "hey, what happened, I went to reply to our thread and it was gone. I'm sorry." would be something anyone would be happy to receive.Quote:

Do it KQ, if you have room take in a couple. You don't have to go all Annie Savoy on them but it would really be worth the occasional TR.
Be amazing if one of them eventually winds up in MLB.
Played B-ball did ya?Quote:

Worse than horse people? Now that I don't know.
Are they still vile if it's Wood Bat League or is it just general college jocks stuff?Quote:

Was at a low single-A game a couple years ago sitting next to a host family and the lady said the biggest park was that they eat you out of house and home! Haha might be worth the eye candy though.Quote:

You'd think so with that large build but no, he was a Thoroughbred out of the great racehorse Damascus (#16 of the top 100 racehorses of the 20th century). He was a once in a lifetime horse. Won a lot of blue ribbons with him.Quote:

Random post:
My Grand dad and Dad were Farriers, standardbred race horses (Trotters and Pacers) and I grew up around a race track scene on Long Island (RIP Roosevelt Raceway). It was like working at a Carnival with freaks, geeks and all manner of sketchy people.
He got the idea that shoeing show horses would be more lucrative and we would hang with a better crowd. Turns out they were just as bad although some of the daughters were pretty freaky in a good way.
@KQ: Definitely better. Cool video.
Cool!Quote:

Here in W2 we used to have the only farrier school in the nation at our CC. People came from as far as South Africa to take the course. They closed it down last year due to budget cuts (really it was budget mismanagement on the part of the board).
My grandfather raised and trained Thoroughbred horses. He was a true Irishman. Loved those beasts. It's a brutal sport for the horses and owners/trainers rarely come out ahead but man is it something to watch.
Freezer burn. Garage beer fridge freezer is icing things up at an amazing pace. Any tricks that help hinder the ice production on the foodz?
Check your seal. Sounds like the door isn't as tight as it should be.Quote:

What's the best way to attach mylar film to a house with 40 year old, well maintained (painted) vertically lapped cedar siding?
Try staple?
No, this is not upstate.
Using staples had crossed my mind, but given the flimsiness of the mylar, I'm worried about tearing.
So staples combined with cardboard or a thin plastic might work.
For the ongiong seasonal application, I was thinking of hammering in some nails from which I could hang clamps that could hold the mylar. That makes it easier to remove at summers end. Even upstate.
I hear it's almost tarp season in the Upstate.
Velcro tape?
