    Very cool opening video. In indonesia, there is a very popular shadow puppet tradition called "wayang kulit", where they tell some pretty elaborate stories in that form. Here is a short example. Lots of fun and interesting to see once. link text

    LOL, just delivered a decent sized grand to a client named Beato. I asked if they were related, turns out they are cousins and used to play in a combo together. He said Rick’s son is the real musician in the family…

    @loki said in Waffle House: Using accoutrements such as jelly packets, mayonnaise packets, pickles, cheese and hash brown pieces, grill operators are told what orders go on which plates. A jelly packet at the bottom of the plate signifies scrambled eggs. Raisin toast is signified by a packet of apple butter. A mustard packet facing up means a pork chop. Face-down means country ham. A pat of butter is a T-bone, and its place on the plate determines how the steak cooked, from well done at the top to rare at the bottom.[17] That's pretty elaborate, but a lot of restaurants develop their own verbal shorthands and plating processes to communicate things faster.

    @horace said in Going camping...: The water would just accumulate in my stomach while I remained dehydrated, as I sweated faster than it absorbed. I've had that happen a couple of times myself. Really the only solution I've found is to slow the hell down and get into some shade. I've become pretty good at knowing how much I'm exerting myself, and when it's hot as balls with direct sun and all inclines, sometimes I'll slow down to 20 or 30% what I'm capable of doing, for exactly that reason.

    @axtremus said in Michigan Senate Report on the November 2020 Election: https://misenategopcdn.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/99/doccuments/20210623/SMPO_2020ElectionReport.pdf The four Michigan state senators who authored the report comprise of three Republicans (including the committee chair) and one Democrat. From the report: This Committee found no evidence of widespread or systematic fraud in Michigan’s prosecution of the 2020 election. I'm glad that the evidence of fraud they found did not rise, in their estimation, to the level of "widespread" or "systematic".
