@George-K said in Charge up!: @Doctor-Phibes said in Charge up!: They have charging points where I work. It might be a good choice for the daily grind to work. With the new house and the stupid management in the office rule I'm commuting 350 miles a week, and the gas cost is adding up. Of course, there's no way I can afford another car. I humbly suggested it was high time I got promoted - the next level up get a car allowance. I suspect my pleas fell on deaf ears. I get it. How long would it take to charge up if you can't do it overnight in your garage? Are your charging points at work "free?" You're burning 70 gallons a week (at 20 mpg). That's probably about $220 a week in gas. I think we might have to pay, but they're cheap. There's a ton of them, but they never seem to be used. I'm not using anywhere near that much gas - it would be 70 gallons a month at 20mpg, but I think I'm getting between 32 and 35 mpg - it's pretty much all highway, and it's not a big car, so that's what, 10 gallons of gas a week commuting, maybe slightly more

He's aged almost as well as I have... [image: 1681431527750-339909873_603863698464818_2953491832358349645_n.jpg]

"A little meat...a little bacon." "It glues..." Unless you pull it up, LOL. This is a LOT of work. Interesting to watch, but not gonna happen in my house.

Here’s a challenge. Stretching 14,000 miles (22,387km) from Cape Town in South Africa to Magadan in Russia, this route might be the world’s longest walk, and it certainly sounds gruelling. Credit for this lengthy route goes to Reddit user cbz3000, who drew it up on Google Maps in 2019. Claiming it to be the longest walking distance possible on the site, they found a route that required no flights, ferry’s (sic) or other boat-crossings: just open roads and bridges. The route takes the brave traveller up through Africa, past the Suez Canal, through Turkey, Central Asia and across Siberia to Magadan. [image: 1681421618423-image.png]

He should have been worth $100M. He was worth $18,000 when he died

@Jolly said in Someone here has a birthday: Or have his wife do it for you? Mrs. (I like my steak like a hockey puck) George is treating me with lasagna. Almost 46 years of marriage, and she's not the best cook (she'll even agree with my assessment). Should be...interesting.

If it had been in Chicago, they'd still be looking. Most recent stat I saw is that about 60% of murders don't even result in an arrest, let alone a conviction.

@George-K said in Is there *any* doubt he's running?: He already won there. No, I mean Floridians seem to require hearing messages more than once. Maybe it's the alligator pee in the water system.

So far, President Biden's treatment of mainland China has been pretty strong from my standpoint. Based on that, he is either not worried about what the banks may have, or he is willing to have his son face the consequences.

@LuFins-Dad said in 50 years: @Doctor-Phibes said in 50 years: I just got an alert that the woman who does my team's business support - all the admin, letters, company stuff, what used to be called a secretary, is about to celebrate 50 years with the company. 50 freaking years! Working with you the last few years has probably felt as long as all of the other year’s combined… Out of curiosity, is she in her sixties or her seventies? I've worked with her for 20 years - I started in April 2003. I think she started straight out of high school, so I'm guessing she's in her 60's. The funny thing is that she gets a company pension, and they match her 401K for 6%, so she'll probably take home more once she retires than she does now.

@Jolly said in The Best: Gentlemen, you don't eat at Commander's, you dine. Did you wear your greasy coveralls to your wedding? TBH, I don't actually wear any of that scruffy shit anyway if I'm going somewhere nice but I'm not wearing a jacket. At least they don't require a tie. Looking at the menu, it's not actually that expensive. It does look nice.

Is there a prophecy about a hole spewing hot water at the bottom of the ocean?

The price of milk will be going up in Texas...
