You don't want to live on fox island. They don't deliver pizza there. You have to go meet the delivery guys at the boat ramp.

That's okay. I bet the pizza sucks anyway.
The new dream is to move to an island in Puget Sound and open a po'boy and gumbo shop.

Oof. Now I feel bad about criticizing the log cabin.
That thing is a ####ing monstrosity.

I was going to ask you how it was going. I’m hoping you can get moved in so we can grab RL and ‘ninja and watch football there someday soon.
Maybe a bar instead? :(

Closing is 10/20. I thought everything was fine, but some ####### underwriter decided that since my 2016 taxes are due on October 15 that they can't close on the 20th without me filing the taxes and them getting a transcript from the IRS. So if it closed on the 14th, no problem. But because it's closing the 20th, I have this tax issue. My CPA is rushing my return through (supposedly), but I haven't heard from her or my mortgage broker since Monday. They're both ignoring emails and phone calls.
On the plus side, I decided that instead of moving, I'm just going to buy all new stuff. I went a little nuts over the weekend and bought an entire bedroom set for me, another for my daughter, an office suite, a dining room table, coffee table, sectional, chair-and-a-half, couch and loveseat. Every piece of furniture I currently own is getting sold or going to goodwill.

I assume people are justifying the use of multi/rapid fire long-range weapons for personal use?
I will go on the record- in here- that I ####### hate guns. In this day and age, I don't see the need to overthrow the goverment via weaponed militia. I don't see the point in hunting unless it's for consumption only. I find sport hunting barbaric, disgusting, cruel and awful. target practice? get a video game. but it's the 2nd amendment... not even an afterthought thrown in later... #2. so, so be it. that said- multi/rapid fire guns? you're not hunting anything other than lots of humans with that kind of thing. limit or ban them, IMO. long-range versions of those? no.

Yeah I think arguments for 30+ round clips (errf....magazines) boil down toEl Floppo said:
1. Convenience. I mean who wants to keep reloading at the range (queue comparison to 30 pack of beer)
2. Fantasy societal break-down / zombie apocalypse scenarios
you also have to make sure you're up on proper gun terminology, ammo sizes, etc otherwise your opinion is dismissed for being a moron.

I've said it before but it bears (sp?) repeating, if you are the guy who sits in a bar and gabs loudly on your phone for more than a minute, you are an awful, horrible, obnoxious human being. Take your phuqing calls outside and let those of us listening to Bob Costas call baseball games in peace with our drinks.
Clueless, tone deaf, selfish prix that do this.

Got an e-mail today from a guy in my magic football leeg (I handle the website duties), asking how to put Dalvin Cook on IR. He's probably in his early/mid 60s, and not real tech savvy. So I e-mailed back:
- Go to the home page
- Click "My Team"
- Click the "IR" link
- Check the box next to Cook where it says "Deactivate to IR"
Got a reply back, "Thanks. I would never have guessed that."
- Go to the home page
- Click "My Team"
- Click the "IR" link

Sitting here feeling both wistful and like a jerk.
Earlier today I was driving through some not great areas of Philly and realizing just how lucky and blessed I am. I don't have nearly as much as 90% of those in our surrounding area, but a 2,200SF townhouse in a nice safe neighborhood with a decent school district and a wife and daughter I adore is worth a whole lot.
But then I get home tonight, and out of curiosity, check out homes in a slightly more rural area about 10-15 minutes from us and see a number of decent single family homes on 1-4 acre beautiful lots that my daughter would love to play on and I would love to sit and enjoy. Only we're pretty much locked into our current house for a number of reasons and even the $300-400 more a month would be too much for us to swing. And it got my glum and feeling crappy for not being able to provide a better house for my daughter.
And then immediately feel guilty for even thinking that after seeing so many people looking defeated while sitting in front of their run down 400SF row house in a dangerous neighborhood with crappy schools.
Life is weird.
