Double Domino Cafe

MatsumotoCastleMatsumoto JapanLate16thCentury.jpg
Matsumoto Castle, Japan

Chillin' and gorillin'.

A cute little monkey wants to give you a smoocher.

A strange looking cat.

Aww: A puppy is trapped in water and a duck saves him.

Civil service at its finest. Andrew McCarthy's recommending them all for Congressional Medals of Honor.

Competitive dog jumping.

Goats will jump on anything.

Goats scaling sheer cliff walls like it's nothing at all.

Sir, I only asked for your license and insurance.

I've linked this before: stray dogs agitate to get people's attention. And then they lead the people to their fellow stray dog, who's caught in a pool and drowning.

Surprise pounce!


Playing dominos with bricks. Stick 'til the end. There's a special thing the bricks do that dominoes don't.

There's an even longer domino brick fall here.

This video explains the Double Domino effect.

I'm just enamored of Japanese depictions of the Madonna and Child. There are even Nativity scenes including St. Joseph, and they are just simple and sublimely beautiful. They make their point without getting all treacly.

Posted by: kallisto at March 23, 2022 07:38 PM (DJFLF)

26 I once spent a summer working for a Japanese man who had an incredible garden in his back yard. Mostly pulling weeds, grass and whatever he didn't want growing there. It was the most interesting "yard" I've ever been in.

The arrangement of plants, water features, etc. was amazeballs.

Visually... it was perfection.

Unless you need a big, fancy fridge (which is chinese junk, anyway), a simple Top Freezer is a good option.
Maytag makes a decent 20 cu ft fridge for about $900.

And the fancy touch screen went out on the stove, so that had to go too. replacements were second hand, basic types with mechanical switches. The kids will get to upgrade when they turn it into a rental.

Oh, yeah. The state of Massachusetts has specific codes for water heaters. Real bullshit, too. Most cities require something like this: The plumbing code requires that a licensed plumber/gas fitter perform all plumbing and gas work and receive a permit from the Building/Inspection Department. This includes replacing faucets, boilers, hot water heaters and gas appliances etc.

But electrical work is allowed.

yup, probably GE; those big top-mount things were conversion units for old style ice boxes, and they should run forever.
had one for years, still regret leaving it behind in a move.

209 Shopped for new fridge, result, modern fridges are ridiculously overpriced, seem to all have ridiculously low cubic ft and poor design and layout unless you splurge for the ludicrously expensive models.

Also the service tech said LG and Samsungs are the poorest performing refrigerators and those seem to be the models featured prominently in most big box stores.

BREAKING: Mary Jane Thomas, Wife Of Hank Williams Jr., Unexpectedly Dead at 61

While her official cause of death remains unknown and does not appear to be suspicious, it has been reported that she presumably "suffered a complication, possibly a blood clot, following a medical procedure."

The outlet reported that the Jupiter Beach Resort & Spa called the local police department around 5PM EST on Tuesday afternoon, where Mary Jane was transported to a local hospital and was later pronounced dead.

218 I've seen both LG and Samsung 'fridges opened up on the repair shop's workbench. There is no comparison, the Samsung is nearly 100% breakable plastic, even the DRIVE on the ice augur which moves the ice from the storage to the dispenser. Not "if" it'll break, but when.

The LG has a lot more stainless steel in the stress areas of moving parts, even molded into the plastic where hinge points occur for various internal doors n' such. Is an LG equal to a Whirlpool? I don't think so, but I'm happy with the LG here for the past three years.

But if I were buying new, I'd be looking at commercial gear from the Restaurant Supply industry. Buy Once, Cry Once. Bonus, NONE of the commercial stuff is weighed down with "Internet of Things" chips, cameras, microphones and Report to Big Brother-ware.

GE Monitor, the original fridge.

They had one in the lunch room at the county courthouse here, it got bought for the courthouse staff by the commissioners when it was new. It is still there if they haven't replaced it.
By the way the lunch room is in the old files vault that was built sheathed with iron plating to make it fireproof, because the prior courthouse was burned down and the commissioners decided they didn't want to lose all their property tax records twice

287 Commissar H --

This parish (or at least its business office) covers the only 4 churches I consider within easy driving distance. (I'm old enough that these days I really hate driving "Texas distances", given limited peripheral vision, slowed reflexes, and the truly insane speed limits.)

The diocesan office is in Tyler, about 2 hours away, the next closest is in Houston, I think -- maybe an hour and a half, but probably in the city itself, which is not something I care to risk. (I'd probably just get lost, anyway.)

Which is why I'm in a bit of a quandary.

295 I have a stick blender. I may be using this to put my cat on a raw meat diet (which means grinding chicken bones). But I've read about them for years. They can turn stuff into soup and heat it up as it grinds it. You can make frozen desserts. I might get the dry goods base and see how fine it can grind wheat. They are very powerful blenders and made in the US.

We had bought a really good blender a few years ago and don't regret it one bit. I don't remember what it is but it's a competitor. $250-$300 or so, but I found it on clearance for $125 which is why I'd bought it.

I'd probably pay full price now that we've used it. It's shocking how much better they are than the cheapo ones I'd used up until then.

I've wondered about that, too.

360 Thanks, all, for the suggestions -- I knew I could count on you! I'll see what other parishes are nearby and if they're interested, otherwise go for the flat-rate envelope and send a bunch to the diocese. No schools or convents within my driving range that I've been able to find on the web, so the flat-rate mailing looks to be my best bet.

361 347 Once fridges crossed the $1000 threshold, the slope got steep. Its like the manufacturers got into a competition of who could sell at the highest price. I wonder what the actual manufacturer cost is for a $3000 model.

$20, same as in town.

362 Someone gave me a stick blender this past Christmas. I've never used it though I know I should.

It's a Nutribullet stick blender. Just checked, made in Chyna. Oh, well. It was a gift.

I've been a passenger, a KLM caterer, and a cargo handler with hazmat certs....

I know that the industry used to keep the planes much cleaner, the food better, and cared a lot more about logistical efficiency than they do now.

The stews were a lot hotter in the 90s as well considering the women then are largely still doing the job.

365 If Ketanji Brown Jackson can't define "woman," she can't hear cases involving women's issues, and therefore is unfit to sit on the court.

Also of interest is Joe Biden's assertion that he was choosing only a "black female" for the court. What does Ketanji Brown Jackson think of that? Why does Biden think that she's a woman, or that she's black?

$3K??

Don't get me started on Bluetooth.

I don't need bluetooth in everything. I don't need everything connected to Alexa. Bluetooth transceivers are cheap components that the manufacturers pretend are high-tech options.

Woohoo, look at me, I'm turning my oven on from my phone!

"Those are for pouring boiling oil onto the invaders," the guide said.

370 The Classic Rock Magazine piece linked at Insty about Tommy James and The Mob is a real fun read. Looks like I should read James's autobio. Several commenters mentioned it's a must if you like the linked article.

>>I came very close to buying LG's model LRTLS2403S

Pretty sweet.

I'm looking more for either a side-by-side or French Drawer with water and ice maker.

The dead fridge is a French Drawer, it's closest match is a Kenmore 75032 it's just under 2k.

Probably will go with that one or a frigedaire side by side.

I don't know, just bummed my fridge died.

383 Started watching "Reacher". Guy just shot two dudes, bad guys, in the back and crammed them into the trunk of a car with another dead dude. Had to break their arms and legs to get them in. Expressionless. Dude is a psychopath. I'm watching one psychopath series, "

The thing about the Reacher character is that he isn't like most people. His moral code revolves around whether he decides you are a bad guy, and how bad he decides you are. He's mostly likeable because what really sets him off are bullies

386 Reacher is so good if you read the books, because it's a tiny bit accurate as far as the books are concerned. You might find it mediocre if you haven't read the books because the production values and script aren't perfect. Bottom line it's a huge step up from the Tom Cruise films. Reacher is basically a giant pissed off Sherlock Holmes. It's a very strange character, and difficult to capture on film. This otherwise imperfect version of the character is the best you are likely to get.

I think I remember something like that from the first book "Killing Floor", probably Lee Child's, best.
