That's what makes the six degrees of separation work . . . the random unpredictable connections.

:lol: :lol: :lol: God is an iron. :lol: I've had experiences like that . . . When I was in college, I had a man attending a convention ask if I minded company at my table (I was eating lunch alone in the dining hall nearest the convention center) "No problem". We talked a bit, then he aske...

And my point was that if dry-ice blasting will remove Imron from aluminum without damage, it should remove just about anything else, including the British equivalent of CARC. ( CARC was the rather nasty chemical-resistant paint the US military was using around that time.) Neither as toxic nor as tou...

Last I knew Imron was still made . . . because nothing much else stood up to Skydrol (aircraft hydraulic fluid), which is also very nasty stuff. It's possible that someone has come up with something that manages to replace one or both and gotten it FAA-certified, but I think I would have heard about...

I wonder what this would do to the decals . . .

Alternatively, how about dry-ice blasting? That will remove Imron* . . .

*Spelling? It's a very durable aviation paint.

So is the nuclear eyeroll for Katherine's obviousness or for Atsali's obliviousness?

Bagpipes are the best revenge on drunken or hungover frat boys. :twisted: Double so if you have an FM transmitter more powerful than the one they are using for their party/vehicles. :twisted: :twisted: So does putting the Sex Pistols God Save the Queen on your stereo at volume 11, turning the...

No . . . I don't think so . . .

I think she won't understand (unless he's very very direct).

And. What. Is. Wrong. With. Bagpipes?

Well, she's a siren/incubus, not a human. Maybe she's better designed for the load.

She's getting her bras from Lydia.

Yes, which is why I'm surprised she's apparently not wearing one now.

Somehow I doubt that top was purchased as a top- she just found out it could (sorta) work that way... Given the way the top and bottom match, on the link provided for us by jwhouk yesterday, my money's on it being sold as a "complete" outfit (for a certain definition of "complete&quo...

Now how can this go sideways . . .

Let me count the ways . . .

Oh, and I'm surprised they got much of a tax rebate, unless it was due to changes in status/tax liability during the year . . . most accountants I know don't see any point in loaning Uncle Sam their money interest-free. (I don't either.)

I was afraid Katherine wasn't paying attention . . . I was concerned about people (mostly male people) perceiving messages and social cues Atsali didn't know anything about . . . I knew someone (someone a lot like Atsali: busty and innocent) that happened to: between where she was and the way she wa...

A large macaw can crush bones it can get its beak around - like your finger. In "Emergence", protagonist Candi Foster writes that she was quite certain that if she left her Hyacinthine Macaw companion alone with a one-cubic-meter block of sintered tungsten carbide, she'd come back to find...

. . . A sphinx will use a swipe very similar to what a big cat will do- get inside of the swipe . . . Amusingly, this is also a good strategy when too close to a "steam" shovel - get inside. You can actually go in between the tracks in that situation! (But avoid getting pinched.) Of cours...

. . . My brother and I discovered Tin Tin and Snowy at the public library in Sanford Fla. . . . In the 1970s and into the early 1980s, the local clinic (in a logging town) had several english copies of TinTIn in the kids waiting area . . . For all I know they're still there!
