Appreciate your insights. I feel like for many house projects I’ve asked about you always provide really great feedback and ideas.

The cover is needed mainly because a hard flat cover would be swept away with the wind. The pooling water is annoying but not impossible. I have to bail it after a good rainstorm and ideally I can keep the sand dry underneath. I hand carried the 1,000 pounds of sand to fill it and have done it twice, I prefer to avoid that again! The kids love it though, so it’s worth it.

Not a bad idea. I looked into it before and it cost over $200 I think? Might be worth it though considering the alternatives I've tried, including this wood hack.

Hey I did my part. Had a kid in 2023.

There used to be no bag fees until what... 2008 when fuel prices soared? That's when carrying on, it seems, began to be a "how much can I bring on board?" contest.

Alright, this is probably a dumb question. But...
I have an octagon shaped sandbox in the backyard. It has a durable waterproof fabric cover, but when it rains it pools water on the cover, I have to use a bucket to bail out the rain water. I've tried putting objects (like an upside-down circle plastic kiddie pool underneath to help make a "dome" but it's not perfect. Always pooling water...
Anyway, so I bought two pieces of 4x8' exterior plywood, and I plan to join them with hinges to make a makeshift roof I can put under the sandbox cover. This should, in theory, keep the cover flat and minimize any pooling of water.
The dumb question... each piece of plywood is about 40 pounds. So this will be an 80 pound cover. Would it be dumb or smart to drill a bunch of 2-3" holes in the plywood to remove weight without hopefully compromising the rigidity of the wood?

My NP is a shitload better than all the doctors at the practice.
Which is concerning since the doctors were proctologists.

I am interested in the 9th storm, for sure. Surprised the 2012 action didn't earn retirement nor the nicknamed storm Hurricane Ike in 2008.

Bad thread title, IMO. That was a very clear and intentional suicide.

Don't forget that after all the audits of the 2020 election... republicans were substantially more fraudulent than the democrats. Don't tell Trump, though. Even recounts proved more votes for Biden once the recounts were complete. And this is not something I want, as a conservative.

@taiwan_girl said in I love it when he takes me literally:
as President Biden is, he has his handlers to keep him inside the guardrails. I dont think that President Trump has that.
That might be a fair assessment. Might.
But, whom do we elect? A man or unknown handlers?
Really the question is, do you elect Trump (possibly a convicted criminal by then) or essentially Kamala, who Biden will hand the controls to in 2025 or 2026.
Honestly, keep Biden. He's a known quantity, as is Kamala, and it would make 2028 a heck of a lot easier for DeSantis to win. And with the economy still in question, I don't think that's something Kamala will be able to run on.

I look forward to watching this series. I've seen a few scenes and it seems great. And as a total aside... I was a huge fan of The Last Samurai. Absolutely beautiful movie, fantastic soundtrack... and Sanada is a key character in that film, and of course a lead in Shogun.
