I should be but oddly I'm not...

we all should

being not busy makes Penguin4x4 a dull boy...

methinks the "possible barrier" thread has run its course...

show up at their house with a boombox? 80's movies are fun...

House just near gave me a heart attack holy shit this is a great show

its not just a big flush valve and big exit pipe though, the way its designed the water falls a longer distance so there's more force pushing it out of the bowl; pretty clever engineering for such a simple device, actually...

I don't think I've encountered a crappier (HA!) 1.6 model in my life, to be honest. I'm glad its gone... and the tank looks bigger but that's the camera angle; its a few inches shorter than the old one and makes up the difference in girth

Probably the same reason the morons in my subdivision have livestock. Would explain that shiny new truck with "Farm Truck" plates...

New toilet going in in the guest bath. Been needing it basically since we've moved in. New American Champion 4 flush system versus the Universal-Rundle POS it replaces:

<-- has never applied for a job I haven't gotten. Which is exactly why I should go apply for something new, only to shoot the moon. Someone encourage me. Double dog dare you. Find one for me to apply to General Dynamics, Dell and Lockheed are looking for senior positions to fill down here in TX know if they're looking for any entry level positions? All the time Texas Instruments too Especially if you're an engineer; practically every company from every field are looking for engineers down here in Texas That's beacause if you aren't from Texas you don't want to live there I shouldn't have added the Texas part; right now healthcare professionals (nurses, doctors, etc.), engineers, and sales reps are the three most "in demand" job markets in the US, regardless of location

what do they build there? Currently they build Tundras there, and with the hiring of 850 employees they are expanding production to include Tacomas as well

Toyota's also adding about 850 jobs to their San Antonio plant

Ever see them refuel a nuclear reactor? That's what they're doing here right now; refueling and maintenance Will be nice when they get the two new reactors in, then my parents can sell this house and retire up by the rest of our family...
