For Tanner

Saturday night I was out on the patio having a drink and my dog somehow flushed out a fox, chased him into the front yard, around the house, and right back to me. Needless to say I was a bit freaked the #### out when all of a sudden, in my very buzzed state, a large mammal that is designed to kill, ran right to me. He was a little unnerved too that my fast dog, generally a coward but loves to hunt, was on his ###. I ran in the house and went back out a few minutes later to retrieve my drink and the fox was gone. The dog was all proud of himself though and wanted a treat for his fine work.

Last night around sunset I was drinking a beer and the dog spies a rabbit on the other side of the yard. He begins to stalk it like a cat and I'm loling to myself because he doesn't have the speed off the mark to catch the thing. He makes is within 5 feet of the rabbit and it takes off running into the woods. That's when I notice Climby, the feral cat that hangs around, in the neighbors yard. Apparently he was stalking this same rabbit and was angry at my stupid dog for chasing off his dinner. My dog sees Climby and sticks his nose through the fence to sniff him. So Climby, being the bad mother####er he is, bolts across the yard right at my dog, getting right in his face. I'm guessing he must have said something to my dog because he went from wagging his tail to bowing his head in shame and walking away.

Just a few.

My brother's house is on the market if you're interested http://www.themccartygroup.com/listing/21505694-1807-celtic-ct-bakersfield-ca-93311/

It does say something that even in a ridiculous CA real estate market, you can get a nicer place in Bakersfield for about the same amount that you just starting getting into a reasonable place in Seattle.

That is a handsome McMansion, though the kitchen needs at least $20,000 worth of cabinet work.

WWARD?

 
So we got rid of our microwave some time ago at home. Just decided we only use it to badly reheat things, and it's not worth replacing when our old one burned out. I have since discovered there is exactly one thing I use the microwave for that I miss: popcorn.

I bought Jiffy Pop this weekend. It's as horrible as I remembered.

And how. It's an awesome house but I can't stand a lot of the architecture in his neighborhood.

 
Got a summons for grand jury duty yesterday. One week a month for three months. Neat.

It got me thinking, I'm not sure I even know what a grand jury does. Just giving prosecution the go-ahead to indict?

Not a big microwave guy either. But I did buy a new one for the house that will fit over our range. It's sitting in a box. I thought about installing it, but who am I kidding?

Yeah, I don't know what a grand jury is either. I wasn't a very strong civics student.

Yeah, just a rubber stamp, unless the accused is a police officer.

Leaving before the lawyers get involved.

Jiffy Pop is horrible...but so is most microwave stuff. It's certainly full of horrible stuff, anyway.

Stove topping it is the way to go, but just get the raw kernels and make it in a pan with a little coconut oil. Season to taste. Delish.

(And if any of you chodes try and besmirch popping your own popcorn, I'm going to have to assume you missed where I said "Delish." That was put there to end any debate.)

Certainly not as convienient but it's pretty damn easy

 
proninja or anyone else..

I have a Cannondale that I bought at a garage sale 8 years ago and I haven't ridden in about 4 years. Pulled it out of the garage the other day because I need some type of exercise.

Both wheels/tubes need replaced. Neither of the brakes work either. How do I determine if I just need to replace the brake cables, or should I just replace the entire brakes.

Is this possible to do for about $50 on my own?

Lakeland is a dump IMO (at least most of it). Retirement mecca or otherwise

Well, it is in Florida and out of sight of saltwater, so...
