Could you heat it to see if it will expand a cm?Just attempted to repair my treadmill at home. Apparently, I almost succeeded on my Jack-of-all-Trades roll, as everything went smoothly until I was to fit the new drive-belt. It's about a centimeter shorter than the broken one -- despite being supposed to fit the make and model -- so I can't use it.
Time to see if I can hunt down another one
It's like the whole world got had summer break but couldn't see their friends and now they have to go back to school.
The depressing truth is that when you spend more than half your waking hours doing something, it tends to define you. When we meet new people we're tempted to ask "what do you do?" Work defines status in society; one's occupation often speaks volumes about social class, education, and income. Your job will become your label if your death makes the news ("Claims Adjuster Dies in Murder/Suicide").Oh my God it's like you aren't even listening to the corporate masters! You are your job! I for instance am weasel greaser #45.
Considering I would had hurt myself quite a bit if I had been running instead of walking at the moment the previous one failed (it frayed and made the main belt stop in an instant), I'm a bit hesitant to test anything that might affect its reliability.Could you heat it to see if it will expand a cm?
Thanks, my wife deserves all the credit, I just mow...That's a nice yard.
That sounds fantastic to me.Neglect has turned my backyard into a wildlife refuge. Yesterday, my kid saw a fox chase a squirrel across the patio.
I want more selfies of Dumarest wearing hawaiian shirts.Master bathroom is back in business...four people sharing the kids' bathroom was getting old fast. Now we just need to move all our stuff back where it belongs. Fortunately I had tomorrow off anyway as there was other stuff I wanted to do around the house.
Be bold. Admit you want to see him bare chested wrestling a bear.I want more selfies of Dumarest wearing hawaiian shirts.
Yeah, I'd pay to see that.Be bold. Admit you want to see him bare chested wrestling a bear.

Eh. Too much clothing and the bear hasn't been shaved.
Ah!, So the Erik Estrada schtick was a ruse all along!
As long as he doesnt try to get me to take out a reverse mortgage I'm ok with it.Ah!, So the Erik Estrada schtick was a ruse all along!
Dumarest is really just a sockpuppet account for Tom Selleck.
Oh, well. I liked Magnum P.I. better than CHIPS anyway. Fun fact: The guy who played Higgins is actually from Texas.

Mr Leelra?I get to know which name she changed mine to
I have always maintained, often against the status quo, that Tom Selleck can be cast in any iconic role. I'm not saying he would have been better or worse than the signature actors, I'm just saying he could of done it
Yeah, not being over in the USA, I haven't seen that advertisement.It's a pity he's reduced to pimping dodgy personal finance products.
Maybe a failed tax dodge and he suddenly got hit with a big tax bill.Yeah, not being over in the USA, I haven't seen that advertisement.
You would think he was making enough with Blue Bloods, surely enough not to be doing dodgy advertisements for financial institutions.
Very sad indeed
Nah, something else, and an inside joke between us. Nice person, but the whole situation was a strain on our friendship for me. Frequently I got very tired of being involved.Mr Leelra?
Swo it is!I have always maintained, often against the status quo, that Tom Selleck can be cast in any iconic role. I'm not saying he would have been better or worse than the signature actors, I'm just saying he could of done it
To kick things off:
- Thomas Magnum - of course
- Indiana Jones - (and he almost did)
- Wyatt Earp
- Napoleon Solo
- Snake Plissken
- Danny Oceans
- Most of Sean Connery's roles (except Bond)
- The Man With No Name
- Han Solo
- Tony Stark
- Buck Rogers
- Ethan Hunt
- Bruce Wayne
- Mcgywver
- Jack Ryan
- Allan Quartermaine
- Dick Tracey
- Sam Spade
- Jack Burton
The list goes on.If you can think of any, add them to the list.
Eventually the reality dawns, with knowing that most roles could have gone to Tom Selleck.
Once this is known, it cannot be unknown!
heh heh
I used to be a engineering manager. Politics and performance review periods are the two things I miss the least.Earlier this year I got out of a part of my job which I didn’t like - managing people. A lot of cajoling and encouraging and dealing with shitty problems like people going insane literally due to dietary things or people suing my employer and still being employed and people being jerks to junior staff.
turns out, the person who sued just finished a book and I am in it, and I get to know which name she changed mine to. Apparently all nice things. It’s nice to hear, but also I never ever want to do that part of the job again.
Yea it is the fucking worst. I'm not wired to read people and emotionally leverage them to do what I want.Earlier this year I got out of a part of my job which I didn’t like - managing people. A lot of cajoling and encouraging and dealing with shitty problems

Now I'm visualizing him as Dr. Frank-N-Furter...He would have made an interesting Kermit the Frog. Trying now to picture him singing the Rainbow Connection...
Uh huh. "Now." Right.Now I'm visualizing him as Dr. Frank-N-Furter...
How are the expansions?More King of Tokyo. My wife got the King Kong expansion with Tokyo Tower and the Empire State Building.
They add a lot of new elements that can make things more interesting and allow for more strategies and new paths to victory. Fun. Everyone likes special new dice and pieces to play with.How are the expansions?
