But apparently Shilling for Tolkien pays.

Or just switch to rocks.

I have a friend who swears, "The job isn't done, until Rob has hurt himself." Nasty habit of ignoring pain for "Maximum effort!" I managed to permanently buff the hair off my shins via 40ish years of wearing motorcycle boots, at least 5 days a week.

Federation citizens have the equivalent of a Universal Basic Income so they aren't required to work, but do anyway. This covers food, lodging, recreation, and some equivalent to expendable cash. Presumably there are perks that go along with some jobs, above and beyond the basics, by virtue of...

In other words it's not Cyberpunk unless it comes from the Cyber region of France. What we have is just sparkling dystopia.

Yup, though it's less about how you exit and more about where you go once you have. Get out fast then worry about where, afterward.

I would say that a better practice is the sort of thing that I've experienced on construction sites; a marshaling location so that a head count can easily be done after evac, because everyone is expected to be in the same place.

I'm guessing the assumption is that the most reasonable location for a fire to start would be the bay?

I'm really not a fan of Blue Cheese and most of the vinegar based dressings that I liked, went out the window with my diabetes diagnosis (I leaned toward the sweeter side). Caesar Salads are my usual go-to and I'll sometimes switch out the Ranch for Caesar dressing.

My lunches generally include either a salad, or raw carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower, with some Ranch Dressing.

It also pays to be selective about what you make large batches of. Not everything is good after being refrigerated or frozen, but some things (to borrow a lyric) are even better the second time around. If I make a curry or chili, a short stay in the fridge tends to improve it. The spices mix...

I got Crave as a 3 month demo from my cable company. That was 9 months ago. Just watched the latest episode of "Peacemaker" season 2 ;)

Looks really damned good. Could use a little scorch mark near the data port and a couple of squashed Ewoks, though.

Made the belt to go with the holster, cap and ball pouch, and powder flask holder that I recently made from an ancient Tandy pattern.

Getting near max in my vacation bank again so had to burn a day, and I'll likely have to do it a couple of times more over the next month (I get 2.5 vacation days per month). Gave me the time to finish this project.

I will only accept SciFi that involves people getting loaded into cannons and shot at the moon!

I had something like 250 albums and EPs, dating from the '60s through the '90s, but got rid of them a couple of years back. Except for the two 78s that I had, ; Heartbreak Hotel and All Shook Up. They were my father's and my sister felt entitled to them, as daddy's girl, so she swiped them out...

The pumpkin spice must flow.

There are times that I legitimately don't recognize songs from vinyl that I actually owned.
