I don't care for the centipedes out here. But I'm constantly aware of them every time I take the pup out...which is about twenty times a day.
Saw a little itty bitty one in the spare room one time. Had the bug guys here the next day, told them to go nuclear.
Diablo is harder than we remembered, and drops not as plentiful. We've had to re-play some levels over and over to be able to do the next, and I don't remember that being the case back in the day.
She is. Dealing with the high workload from Covid (she deals with medical billing issues for a hospital system) is still keeping her stressed, but she's coping well.Also, please send my hello and regards to Maria, hope she's doing well

Interesting Wiki. Front engine mounting was a Mickey Thompson design from1954.

The trick is to save the game before you have to finalize the character. That way you don’t have to start completely from the beginning. All of the games have a spot at the end of the tutorial piece where you can change everything and finalize your character.

The only games I have ever played to any length are some of the Zelda games (way back) and Red Dead 1-2.

I remember him telling me the engines were rebuilt all the time. He use to bring aluminum parts to metal shop that were being thrown out so the shop teacher could melt them down for out castings

I gotta say, it is really hard to get motivated to do these Physical Therapy knee exercises.....because the dang things hurt... how a joint made of metal can hurt I have yet to figure out....but it hurts..... And with that....now that I am in a frame of mind to go do these things....I'm off to do them..... round 1 of the 3 rounds I need to do in a day is about to begin....

I am speaking from my experience. When a metal object such as a plate or a metal joint is attached to a bone it takes a long time for them to 'grow' together. I had two long plates on my tibia and fibula for about 18 years. Up until they were removed they could be very painful if I turned or twisted a certain way. It was a sharp pain that would really make you check up. The best way to describe it is that the bone wanted to flex but the plates would not allow it so one thing was pulling against the other.
I had to have the plates removed before my left knee replacement. I had no idea how much discomfort they were causing me until they were removed and I recovered from that surgery. Honestly, the removal of the two plates was much more painful than the knee replacement.
With the exception of the first few visits, PT was a breeze for me. I left the hospital on a walker and went to the first PT on the walker. When they said I did not have to use it any more I put it away and have not seen it since.
We still do not have a hard date for the right knee but I am very much looking forward to it.
Yep, looking forward to major surgery is weird but, such is life.

Yea, it has been a long time for me as well.I haven't played games in years so I'll just say good morning.

I realized today while exercising. This is the same exact problem I had after both meniscus repairs. The muscles of the thigh get as hard as a rock and don't like the compression part of movement and they are not all to fond of stretching either. But stretching is actually easier than compression. It just takes time, a long long time for those muscles to kick in and start working for me.

Except when you want them to...
Couple years back, a bad guy barricaded himself in a backyard shed. Fire stuck a hose through a vent. Bad guy got a bit wet. In Colorado. In February...
He came out and surrendered pretty quick.
Nah, you won't run into them here. If you stay in a hotel, resort, condo you ain't about to encounter them. At elevation you ain't about to encounter them. You would have to seek them out if you didn't live here.
I have a buddy from L.A, a writer. Great guy, but one of those guys who thinks he knows more than he really does. Back in the day he came out here to finish a novel. Told me he was going to stay in Haiku for three weeks. I told him he might want to rethink that, Haiku is very rainy and has lots of unwanted wildlife.
He told me it was a newly built place on the side of the mountain, little cabanas that were very cool. So he came. We hooked up of course. Went back to see him on his fourth day. The night before he had been napping in a hammock, a centipede fell from the cabana ceiling onto his face and bit him.
His face looked like he had been bitten by a crazed monkey. And those suckers hurt. He told me, "Go ahead, give me an "I told you so", I deserve it.
I said, "nah......but have I mentioned the cane spiders?"
He went back to L.A. ten days early.
It helps if you know somebody here. Which you do.

Absolutely 100% would be in a Marriott resort..... That is about the level of countryside Mrs Xue can handle
Once spent a weekend with her in a nice log cabin in the mountains of Pennsylvania on the tree farm I occasionally worked on..... as we drove away at the end of the weekend...she looked at me and said..."Don't ever bring me here again". Heck she thought Milford NH was "too countryside"
