    Cats? Lazy? For Them It's an Art Form, Like Ballet

    Hey, I recognize them there katz. Double, as in they are sisters from the same litter. Polar opposites from there. The one in the front is almost twice the size of the other one. These happen to be my baby girls and my wife's lazy coworkers 😄

    Tinnitus Relief

    Working in an automotive repair shop for close to 40yrs now, and after about 20yrs I started getting a mix of crickets and TV off the air crackly white noise when I'm in what should be a quiet space. I sleep with a fan and the TV on.

    I've done Chevre on homemade French onion soup, gives a nice tartness, and it's creamy.

    In that case, it would be 23100 etc... If I make it to 2123, I'll cross that bridge when I get there. 56 completed pipes in 2023, hope to hit 75 in 2024

    On this particular one, the bamboo is significantly large enough to do a delrin tenon that has grooves cut in 2 directions and epoxied in. It would take a quite a bit of torque to break it loose and I'd reckon it'd snap the briar or bamboo first.
