Local sign of economic fuckage: Miley and I go the local Cracker Barrel in Simpsonville for dinner tonight. The menu looks a bit sparser than I remember. Didn't see any catfish in particular, and didn't see some other stuff. Waitress confirms they've downsized the menu, and are gonna have to downsize it some more. Catfish was one of their popular items, but she said they can't get it delivered reliably. Same with other meats. She said they're gonna soon reduce the breakfast menu because of that same problem.

Do you guys cook with wooden spoons? I use silicone or plastic Posted by: vmom stabby stabby stabby stabby stabamillion at June 18, 2022 10:11 PM (kf6Ak) I don't actually use a wooden spoon as I find them somewhat cumbersome, I use a wooden straight-edge scraper. It's great to use in making batches of soup, large pots of red sauce, chili, hot dog onions and things like that. It not only stirs somewhat like a paddle, but it also scrapes the bottom of the pot real well to prevent sticking. But I don't use it in my non-stick pans, in which I cook eggs. For eggs I go with a silicon/plastic spatula because I have more control. Posted by: RickZ at June 18, 2022 10:21 PM (ldL4g) 78

Now prices at the Cracker Barrel. I got out of there for four meals for just under $60. That sort of surprised me. One of the local joints in town, a mid-range family restaurant that's been in town for decades, you're up to $90 for four meals like that. It was two for Miley and me in there, and then I pick up some for my elderly parents. That local joint does catfish (Miley doesn't like their grilled/broiled as much as the Cracker Barrel's), and still does. $90 vs $60 may have something to do with that difference.

They were $180 for the four of us. Now, that joint has been in Greenville since the '60s or so. They are closing at the end of this month. Haven't found a buyer yet, so it may be the end of it. My mother wanted to go one last time, but hell, they're booked solid until the last day. Everyone wants to go one last time.

Seen through binoculars, the end looks melted. And there is a rat's nest of single-strand wire at the cable-head where the 3-conductor cable running up the pole from the meter meets the drop. I think wind and tree branches may have chafed the hot against the neutral, until it arced, burned out the hot, and maybe a few strands of the neutral, too. Or could have been a lightning strike.

YD - rather than try to prevent or correct every error my wife could make in the kitchen, I've found it's just easier to say "no, I don't need help, and don't worry about the dishes, I'll get them later." At the minimum, it saves me the headache of reloading the dishwasher. I'm still baffled that anyone could load the contraption in such an illogical manner.

Cobain Batman, final thoughts:
The villains were poorly done, especially Everything else was competently or good. The chase with the muscle car was really good. None of the fights were prolonged, and I don't think the director wants to be put in a place where he is compared to Nolan.

Hey stabby vmom,
I used to cook with wooden spoons, but when I used the same spoon for soup, spaghetti sauce and making cookies, something broke inside, and I switched to silicone. It's probably irrational that the wood would retain the flavors of the various foods, but in my mind, that's what happened and I couldn't use them anymore.

I’ve got a Trump rally story for ya, Square:
Drove through a heavy downpour three hours for the Cape Girardeau rally with Rush. Stood out in the rain with our teenagers and had to ditch our umbrellas because of security. Some people threw theirs away but I had a couple of really nice ones so I tossed all four into a little pile over the rail on the grass with maybe 75-100 others, at the time we entered. Rally was great. Rush was great. Trump was great. Sat right behind Fox interview box. Kids met Hannity n got hats signed. Unfortunately they put us on tv a lot and my hair was all frizzy. When we left we figured the parking lot would take forever to empty so we stayed inside until most all of 5,000 people left before us. Our umbrellas were still where we left them. I shoulda called Rush the next day. Posted by: Justamom at June 18, 2022 11:18 PM (LlJyd) 273

I believe that the allergy study showed that for women regular intercourse would only provide a measly 8 hours of allergy relief.

Apparently the country Niue is suing The Internet Foundation in Sweden over our TLD ".nu". Niue is a tiny island way out in the middle of the South Pacific south of Samoa.
They gave away all their rights to some company in Massachusetts in exchange for that company giving them free internet. Then that company sold off the rights to The Internet Foundation which continued giving Nieu free internet. Well, I guess someone told Niue, "hey did you know those two companies made about 150 million from that TLD and you could have bought a whole butt load of free wifi for 150M you dummies".

Big Boob Fetish Porn is ... interesting, as Mr. Spock would say. On the Trelane episode, he explained to Bones the difference in his usage of fascinating vs interesting.

Snake in the terlet story for Miklos, and her Grace was trying to relay: The wife who had sublet the trailer out to various renters, who would stay for a few months to year, was cleaning it out between renters one time. Very dry summer, and the poor snakes were hunting water. One got in that trailer and curled up inside the terlet. My father and I were out in the shop, and we heard this blood-curdling scream for over there at the trailer. We went running, sounded like the gal was dying. Well, she had to go, and sat down on that toilet and felt something. She looked down and saw a snake hear coming up. She demanded we kill it. It was just a King Snake, one of the good guys. I put him out in the woods and told her I killed it.

She had scared the snake as much as he scared her. He had crawled out of the terlet and was hiding in a bedroom closet.

It's an absorption cycle. Liquid refrigerant evaporates to pull heat out of the chilled space as normal. But rather than having a compressor to suck that back up, compress it, and then cool it, you have another liquid that absorbs the evaporate refrigerant. It holds the gas in solution. You take that solution and then heat it up, driving the dissolved refrigerant out. This then runs through a condenser and starts the cycle over again. You can do this without any moving parts, just a heat source. Although, some pumps and fans might be nice to increase capacity and all that.

Laguna Sunrise. Black Sabbath. I love it. Tony Iommi is the father of heavy metal. But his skill set with multiple instruments is massive.
Far too many people think Ozzy is Sabbath. Nope. it's Tony, Geezer and Bill. Ozzy was the talented front man anchor. I love the Dio Sabbath, but Ronny and Tony butted heads. Tony was not used to working with a singer who was also a musician. Love Dio Sabbath, though. Posted by: Pug Mahon, Trailer Trash Adjacent at June 19, 2022 12:55 AM (x8Wzq) 410

Total non-sequitur: me and the Missus stripped out the laundry room. I expected a nightmare of black mold and other horrors. But aside from some residual kitty flow from litter boxes, it's wonderfully clean. so, we are scrubbing the hell out of the kitty leaks, slapping paint on the walls, laying down new flooring and painting that with the really good yucky-ness resistant floor paint.

I had major flooding in my bathroom back in 2018 that went on for several weeks when my upstairs neighbor showered because the common drain his shower and my sink connected to got clogged. (I was mostly living elsewhere during this time.) Finally got the bathroom remodeled last year and, to my astonishment, there was only a little black mold at the base of the sink cabinet. Otherwise, the water drained through the lino (squares, not a solid sheet) and through the subfloor which was not a solid piece. Did put new subfloor, lino, baseboards, etc., down, but it was not remotely as bad as I feared.

>> Isn't that how the one using ammonia works? No compressor?
Yes, they can use ammonia as the refrigerant. You can also used ammonia in a regular compressor cycle. The concept here is no compressor, using a liquid (water and such) to absorb the evaporated gas and then heat it out, rather than a compressor.

Oh, when me and Miley was drivin' to the Cracker Barrel this evening, where I learned about the catfish discontinuation, there was a bit of traffic jam between Ft. Inn and Simpsonville, on Hwy. 14. Turned out there was some sort of concert going on at this damned outdoor thing they call the CCNB Amphitheatre at Heritage Park. You can look that up. Turned out somebody called Cody Johnson was performing tonight. Never heard of him. Anyway, there was one hell of a traffic line up down this little side road. I figure Google Maps was directing a lot of idiots coming from the East that way. Luckily, it didn't affect us to much, because we were going sort of the wrong way most of the time for the incoming bunch.
