  1. my oldest came over from his mom's one time with an abscess in the crack of his ass, probably from the severe and untreated diaper rash his mom never did shit about. anyways, i took him to the doc, and they had to open it, drain it, and pack it while i held him down. that was one of the top 3 most difficult parenting moments i've encountered yet. poor little feller. anyways, carry on.
  2. they gave me a couple hundred bucks for the contents they sold. as for the lumber, i might get a few hundred back if those guys make a good chunk from selling it, but there's not set amount on that because they have cost in machinery and labor to take it all down. after they're done, i have a local landfiller / scrapper coming and sorting off all the scrap iron to haul off, and he's deducting whatever he makes on that from the bill for taking the rest of the debris to the landfill. they've taken a full 40-yard rolloff box of debris out so far, might be two or three more boxes left after deconstruction. all said and done, it might cost me a couple thousand to remove the whole thing and end up with a clean lot.
  3. these guys doing the work fit that bill pretty well. they scavenged the entire building, looking for anything that would be worth reselling before they started the deconstruction. they probably sold a couple thousand $ worth of stuff out the door before the demo started. i could have done it myself but i don't have the time or contacts those guys have. i almost called up the american pickers guys because their main office is only a couple hours from here, but i didn't want to put my personal business all over the tv.
  4. building is coming down. it took a couple weeks to get the contents cleared and to dismantle the inside. now they're working on the shell, so there's finally some visible progress being made. monday and wednesday the rest of the south corner 2nd level (left side in last pic) is gone today as well. the demo guys are reclaiming all the wood they can through this process. just yesterday, they hauled off over 7000 sqft of 1x floorboards, wall boards, and roof boards (used instead of sheathing back in the day). the truss coming down from the roof is some good 2x12 stuff too, some as long as 25'. you can't see it in these pics, but there's an old hand-powered freight elevator in the back of the building as well that's still intact, and it will come down next week with the help of some heavy equipment to lift it out piece by piece.
  5. until
    hosting the annual shrimp boil next weekend at my place with live music and way too much alcohol. wear something nice, ok? the mayor is gonna be there. maybe the governor too. pm me for lat/lon.
  6. i'm sorry, your accent is so thick i can't understand you. your ass is thick today from not working out since last wednesday? did i get it right this time?
  7. your what is thick today?

  9. we started stocking this a few weeks ago. i agree, it's surprisingly drinkable, which is something when it's coming from pabst. i'm currently enjoying a couple new-to-us beers: dogfish head dragons and yum-yums, and 4 hands contact high juiced. tonight i get to try a couple we just got in from left hand: death before disco porter and juicy goodness golden ale. exciting.
  10. i saw an original painting while i was at a craft beer bar with the wife on saturday night. it was a painting of a busy intersection, right here in town. and for kicks, there was an orc just strolling along down the center of the street. i didn't think of it at the time, but i should have snapped a pic of the painting, because "the orc on york" was very well done...a bit surreal, but quite interesting.
  11. sorry, i shouldn't spoil it for ya. just keep watching.
  12. this is like some weird-ass donnie darko shit. you're seeing your own future played out in front of you. there will come a point when this story reaches critical mass, and the plot will abruptly rewind to you laying out on your therapist's couch. then a charter bus carrying the thunder down under crew crashes through the wall and flattens your ass to the grill.
  13. can attest to this. we had a "water backup" problem when we lost power for 12 hours during heavy rains, and i didn't have battery backup on my sump pump. we had about 2" of water throughout the basement for an hour before we got it out with a gas-powered trash pump. i had to cut out the first foot of drywall, remove all the doors and trim, tear out a staircase, and pull up all the carpet. luckily, the standing water didn't take out the furnace or water heater. we ended up not having any mold problems, probably because we were quick to get the damaged stuff out and get the basement dry real quick. then we coated everything with kilz before building everything back up. that was a sucky summer.
  14. i didn't get to follow it. i checked out early because i had shit to do, and it was like 4-1 last time i saw the score. it wan't until well after the game was over that i found out they came back like that. impressive/laughable all at once.
  15. everything is tempting when your name contains the word "tempt" so... anyways, i just got done eating bbq truck ribs, brisket, beans, and mac & cheese. i'm such a fatass right now.
  16. i read something about one of the congressional panel asked if facemash was still a thing? i wish zuck would have had the nuts to come up with a clever answer like "it might still be out there in one of the tubes." fucking idiots, the lot of 'em.
  17. god damn fucking shitass hq trivia. on any other day, 12 right is a win. but noooOOOooo you gotta do 15 questions for the big prize. so fucking close. whatever.
  18. they're 5-4 so far, all on the road. if they can look like they have and still win half of their road games, they're gonna be a playoff contender.
  19. drank a founders kbs last night. it was good, don't get me wrong. there was some earthy, oaky, peat-moss something going on in there and that was kinda unique. but for $25 per 12oz 4-pack, i'm pretty sure i can find something slightly less interesting and buy 2x or 3x as much of it. dare i say, kbs is a bit overrated. 4/5
  20. finau shot +2 today to drop to T-8 with an overall of -2. spieth is +2 thru 16 and currently tied for 3rd. sergio is tied for 76th lol. that's what shooting an octuple bogey will do for ya.
  21. pretty sure we don't need to.
  22. you can be an adult and also not give fucks. actually, i kinda feel like the ability to not give fucks when necessary is a very adult thing.
  23. tony finau. not only is he still playing, he's tied for 2nd with a 68 in round 1, and only two strokes off the lead. with the way he popped it back in, i was sure it was something he regularly dealt with. however, it was the first time it happened to him. this is also his first masters. golf. fuck yeah!
  24. that was expectedly underwhelming. it's bud light ... with orange flavor. wait, let me rephrase that. it's a lesser version of both of those things. not heavily orange-flavored, and only the slightest bit of malty grain underneath. it's like tasting a little malt on the back of a watered-down orange soda. it's not very good at all. and i'm belching like a motherfucker, but that's probably my fault because i'm drinking it straight from the bottle. 2/5
