Always good when you can find something that works.

And kudos on not resorting to the overuse of medication.

ITs just crazy I don't realize how much pain there is until its gone.

THe mind has a body of its own. I'll push myself until i'm crimped if i don't find other center points to balance on.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

Speaking of pain. Got the backs of the upper legs all but finished in the last couple months. 

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

I'll be getting water behind the bear the beginning of next month. Also stating on blasting over the old stuff on the lower leg tomorrow! Woot wooT!

Hmmm nothing loads. 

Thanks Guys.

I wish I knew why it wasn't loading for you. Might be the file extension? Just some graduation pics. Currently doing the job hunt, and looking at how to make the resume better. The trimmed fat version versus the Federal version is insanely different.

A "plug" of any kind would be the modern term for "dealer"  I apologize. I was using modern lingo without thinking first. 

Pardon my G.

 

You always have some interest connection to farmland people I assumed you had a whole dairy in your pocket. 

I'm not a giant fan of most yogurt. I like the greek stuff. But kefir definitely helps. And its chugable for the hard days.  

Lol.  Two dairy farms in the family.  You want some milk?

Pretty sure they're referring to a hook up. A connection. A plug eh.

And a dumb one at that.  Gimp opens them but otherwise good luck unless you use one of those San Bernardino devices

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was in the dark on the plug.

I joke but I sincerely struggle with pain meds myself. 

 

I also didnt realize pain can shut you down. I simply figured I can learn to compensate,  overcome, and then find some maintenance protocols to keep running. 

 

This is not true for me apparently. Lol

Think it would make better kefir/yogurt?

 

And I can ALWAYS use cream. Even if I dont use it up ASAP I culture it into creme fraiche and if I dont use that right away I make cultured butter. 

 

I <3 fat. 

[///M5 2,833]

Cream is harder to get.  Only way is to pull a bucket and skim off the top after it settles.  More like a weak half and half.  Storage regulations pre-homogenize.

I don't use raw milk for much.  Raw veggies, raw milk and sauerkraut give me house clearing gas together.  Being a German farm that is defacto holiday food, lol.

[///M5 2,833]

I thought a milk plug must be some tree hugging hippy shit for a yogurt starter.  Fermenting tool, lol, not a dealer.

Ok, that's not worth it.

: D

I am excited to make my own kefir or yogurt. It is a fortune if you buy quality whole milk products without adulteration. Kefir makes for the best sprouted oatmeal and great bread so I find I go through it.

Agreed. Sorry about that. The iPhone does .JPG files, but the MacBook converted them upon airdrop.

For people who want reliable plug and play, solid graphics, 24/7 customer support, and who aren't looking to over clock and modify the whole system.....Yes. Yes it does. For photo work, the last year of college, and travel I've thoroughly enjoyed the shit out of my MacBook Pros. Yes plural. One full sized top of the line for photography and photography only. Then a smaller but damn near as powerful one for school, designing and cutting decals, reviews, travel, etc.

After having to work with 5 year old iMac's and seeing how well they worked compared to the brand new 'top of the line' Windows computers at school.....I'll take the Mac all day long. I'm sure the guts and everything else made a massive difference. I just know they were the best way to go for me when my 2015 Toshiba Laptop croaked from pulling double duty.

Translate modern hip lingo you can, But Google Urban Dictionary you must.

At this point in the game I’m learning to be more conservative. Finding it’s easier to slow the aging process than reverse it.

Comparing a 3k laptop to a $300 laptop isn't a good comparison.

Apple shit only works nice if you only Apple.  That SUCKS.

You aren't wrong. Granted that small Toshiba held up better than the Dell or HP laptops I had before it. I chose that low end Toshiba because the full size one I got back in 2008 lasted 2 years before death by plane. Honestly that wasn't it's fault.

Apple does suck to use with Windows and vice versa.

Had a dream last night that I bought a new iPhone and MacBook pro and I was freaking out for spending such a awful amount of money on that stuff!
