Dolomite Mountains
by @ronald_soethje
Cliffhanger was filmed in the Dolomites,
which is why the mountains looked little like the Rockies

Cat says "I love you." Sort of.

This senior dog was left by his former owners tied up outside when they took off. But this little grandma dog was rescued and is now loved.

Pittie was kept in a cage only for breeding purposes, then abandoned when it turned out she was infertile. But a nice woman adopted her, and now she won't stop talking.

A glimpse of summertime.

It's technically a stick.

Hound crooning.

Making your husky make even stranger noises than he usually makes.

This is why I don't eat vegetables. (Unless they're in a pizza situation, obviously.)

This cat needs you to know you're two minutes late in feeding him and he's not going to put up with your lackadaisical shit much longer.

Cat is alarmed.


Confuse-a-Cat:

For the first time in history, a cat is impressed by something.

24 Dolomite is an anhydrous carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate. The name is also used for a sedimentary carbonate rock composed mostly of the mineral dolomite. An alternative name sometimes used for the dolomitic rock type is dolostone.

The mineral dolomite was probably first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1768, and was described as a rock by the French naturalist and geologist Déodat Gratet de Dolomieu in 1796, first in buildings of the old city of Rome, and later as samples collected in the Tyrolean Alps. Nicolas-Théodore de Saussure first named the mineral (after Dolomieu) in March 1792.

Anyway, like I was sayin', hamsters is the fruit of the rodents. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, hamster-kabobs, hamster creole, hamster gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple hamster, lemon hamster, coconut hamster, pepper hamster, hamster soup, hamster stew, hamster salad, hamster and potatoes, hamster burger, hamster sandwich. That- that's about it.

45 Ok, shit like this pisses me off, because I worked loading trucks for a major shipper for a couple years, and know how it works.

When a company sends me a package, dozens of hands touch it, and many of them have a barcode scanner attached to the wrist they're attached to. The package's weight is also denoted on it.

So why does my stepson receive an empty box with a broken end cap that's missing ten pounds of gasless carbon steel welding sticks nine days late, and so now he can't use his Christmas present?

I worked those trucks. When I had a broken box, I reported on the spot, PER COMPANY RULES AND TERMS OF SERVICE. Total bullshit

Black Dog: *Snort* " Look, I've been running my furry butt off all afternoon. We bring those big sticks to him and he chucks them into the next county. He won't get this one off the deck. So, he'll give up."
White Dog: "So we want him to give up?"
Black Dog: "Hell yes. He gives up. We all go inside...annnnnnnd."
White Dog: " Ooooooohhhh TREATS!!!!"
Black Dog: "Bingo was his namo....And, you need to sell it. I drop the twig...you wiggle your butt like we're ready to rock. He'll take pity on us annnnnnnnd....."

48 Guinea pigs are the bomb for eating. There are no wild guinea pigs in the world, because they were raised by the Incas as a protein source. That's why the Spaniards were able to conquer the Inca Empire. The Spanish ate cows, sheep, pigs, and the occasional horse. The Incas ate a critter smaller than a rabbit, which is also a rodent, but bigger than a hamster. Good thing hamsters never made a go of it in South America or they'd be et as ore dervs.

People no longer feel shame and have zero reason to take pride in their work because companies suck.

100 Had some guys ship a 55 gallon drum of crap to me. In order to save a few bucks on shipping they put the drum to on side of the pallet and chainsawed off 8 inches. Strapped the drum down and shippied it. Some shipping size in LTL trucks thing, probably saved 50 bucks.
I get it and it's leaning off the side. The pallet is destoryed. I can barely get a forklift under it. Product is fine...
It's the wrong crap. They have to pay to ship it back and send me the right crap.
I'm debating on whether to use their palleting job or redo it.

Most of the mail is being sorted by the automated systems now, the carriers just pick up the trays and dump them in the mail trucks and pop it in each box as it comes up.
The days of spending an hour in the lettercases is long gone.
so if one of the processors in the city 60 miles from you screws up, there is nothing to catch it since the carriers just have everything sorted for them and get yelled at if they go too slow.

I explained earlier on the porn thread, that was a pool feed. The outlets who carried it paid a fee for the rights. That is normally done not only to cut costs, but to simplify the logistics of covering a huge event such as the New Years Eve Times Square celebration. Nothing new or unique about that.

On April 17, 1950, the Postmaster General ordered residential deliveries in all areas down to a single trip per day. Businesses continued to receive additional deliveries, although Saturday deliveries would always be one less than the rest of the week. By 1969 Postmaster General Winton Blount noted in his Annual Report that few business areas continued to require multiple daily deliveries. New York City managed to hang onto two deliveries a day in some areas through the 1990s, but standard practice today is a single delivery per day – business or residential.

Well into the late '60s we were getting mail delivered in the morning and the afternoon, except on Saturday.

I remember getting the afternoon NYPost after work to see who the pitching match-ups were for that night's game at either Yankee or Shea. Saw some great pitchers that way, at the last minute, so to speak. Would get outfield bleachers ($2.50) at Yankee or upper deck cheap seats at Shea ($3.50), back when attending sportsball games was affordable.
