it's actually going to be an independent outdoor craft bar / music venue that will operate separate from our current bar, but we're calling it our "beer garden" in conversation until we officially launch it in the spring. i'm working on a deal to purchase a couple neighboring properties so we have somewhere to brew our own beer, and the beer garden would then be incorporated into that space. we're looking at probably 5 years for a timeline on that, but the beer garden will open next spring to start generating some additional revenue in the meantime.

bank gets me til 4. then, assuming the rain is done for the day, doing some more concrete work on the lot where the beer garden is going. and hopefully getting the contractor in to discuss building the stage enclosure. and then probably beer. well, definitely beer.

You might still have time to beat it if you go now.

We're still just on the dry side, but that's not gonna last for much longer. Looks like the front is starting to shift south. Gonna be a long night...

the southern point of the storm front passed by us about 3 miles north of my house. we sat on the lawn and watched the lightning. looked kinda nasty. sounds like iowa state got wet today.

without actually knowing why doubleclick is showing up on your tracker thingy, i can venture a guess. there's probably code built into the ipb package as purchased from invision, that included doubleclick as an option. the site software absolutely supports the ability to include ads. but it has to be enabled and deployed if it's actually going to start generating revenue. you can believe kn or you can be super-irrational about it, but to think the site is making bucks off anyone's activity is quite silly.

now we're getting somewhere... go on. talk dirty to us.

psst. disco's a cool kid. you're fucked.

and i would have said you're welcome to swing by and do that because i'm not wasting that kind of time. but you thought better of laying that one down, so thank goodness we don't have to hash all that out.

that's also a thing that happens when you get older.

ffs. someone scoops them out every day, and they both get changed at least every week. i'm disappointed i have to explain it to you that i was joking.

1. seeing how long i can make the same box of cat litter last 2. pressing snooze no less than five times before the kids wake up 3. watching the fish tank 5. the "twitter refresh feed" game getting old is awesome.

narrator: he was surprised. and it was telegraphed so hard too!

there are some people who focus on post count and rep as a sign of quality or popularity. some look at how hott their threads get. it's all playground shit, really. personally, i just come here because it's more entertaining than window shopping on amazon. usually.

there's no money being generated from traffic on this site (unless @KN is keeping secrets...but he's not). any competition for points or post count is just a vanity thing.

i give it 9 posts. well, 8 now.

https://numbersinwords.net/1001-in-words says "one thousand and first" and there's the catch. i wasn't including the "and" because i was of the impression that, since you didn't include it after hundred (one hundred one instead of one hundred and one), you also didn't use it after thousand. but if you do use it after thousand, "st" makes more sense than "th." fair enough.

i think they're both equally wrong. to google we go, i suppose...

it's the other way around man.

i think heat index is supposed to top out at 105 this afternoon, but today is our last day of heat in the midwest. a cold front is gonna drag some storms across the area overnight and suck cooler air in from the nort'. then we're looking at 70s-80s for the rest of the week.

handicapped people can jerk it too.

so a person would say "one thousand first" then? just seems ... kinda broken.

so rizzo had hit #1000 and #1001 tonight as a cub. wife and i are debating if you say 1001st or 1001th because neither sounds remotely correct.

nah. worst case scenario, a mod will split the thread in two, leaving all the relevant bits here and moving all of nabs' whining off to the dumpster. you shouldn't lose more than half a page.
