Those Romans built incredible roads, dead straight with one helluva foundation. They started by digging down about 3 feet and layered up from there.

Must be why Rome wasn't built in a day huh?

Yea the times we have been to Europe, I noticed overall how much better their roads were in regards to their main roads.

I read an article numerous years ago how they build their roads to last much longer than ours.

Love them or hate them, it has come to my attention that Crocs have been placed on this planet for the sole purpose of extermination of the human race through "dark space attacks".

Crocs have been shown, repeatedly, while stumbled upon in the dark, especially on a carpeted surface, to transform themselves into rubbery, completely immovable objects.

The true danger lies in the split second following the realization that one has stepped on a Croc in the dark, and the casual assumption that the Croc will yield. This is a mistake! The Croc will not yield. Not EVER! Thus, in your perfectly understandable momentary lapse of judgment, your body's forward momentum continues in its original direction, generally, however one, or possibly both, of your feet do not follow. They cannot. The Croc has you. Next, you may find yourself, not behind the wheel of a large automobile, but instead with your momentum uncontrollably redirected, propelling you at speed through a poorly placed curio cabinet. Then, before you know it, you're in the bathroom taking half naked selfies in the mirror to show off your cool new scars, thinking it'll make you look tough, but instead find yourself ridiculed for posting nip pics.

Or, perhaps you will be catapulted across the space onto your a turntable, ripping the dust cover off its hinges and snapping the tonearm clean off.

These are but two unfortunate examples I have come to hear in the past week.

Know this. Crocs are dangerous. Be vigilant. Know where they hang out. Expect them. Or just put them where they're supposed to go when you take them off. While there's still light. They can only hurt you in the dark. Or if you show up wearing them to a first date. With socks.

I wonder what becomes of them when alcohol is involved…

I think he WAS referring to when alcohol was involved.

You would know Rob! lol
That was a sober story, though.
If alcohol were involved, the story would have been the same, I would just have written it in my underwear. And in all caps.

Don't step on a Croc, you'll break your mother's bock.

Getting ready for a "Glamping" trip and hurriedly walked into the home office shortly after relocating a spare sub to a "new" location completely forgot. it was dark. Don't we have a thread for audio gear injuries?

@Hermitism - this is just poetic justice for my jokey allusion to @headrott catapulting himself into a curio, isn't it?
sob.

Whatever. Ref'd one of the SDA magnet shift threads, applied Loctite Powergrab.
This site rocks. Good as new. Messed up my hair though. @F1nut 's would still be perfectly groomed.
Carry on, inmates.

Now you have to worry about catching that flesh eating virus

Enjoy your glamping trip, and don't worry, you still maintain your "invisible man" status

Ginger does have some medicinal properties, useful for increasing blood flow to the extremities


However, I also believe Mary Ann has increased medicinal possibilities. 🤔



(Truth be told, things have been a little slow at the Ponderosa lately so....well... let's not dismiss Mrs Powell too hastily 🤗)
