I just now noticed that Patagonia has dropped the price of their boots by $150 across the board. Now they’re just really really expensive.

Whoosh.

LOL. That’s your response to og’s post?

OG, I’m gonna quote you here, because you’ll want to remember you wrote it.

That’s pretty much the most accurate summation of MF’s COVID thinking as I’ve seen here.

I had a ‘67 camper, 12 volt.

Thinking about it, it might haven a ‘66. But definitely a 6 volt.

This is as good a place as any to put this picture of me fixin’ dinner at the back of my good old friend’s ‘65, at a pullout in GTNP in spring ‘76. There’s a b&w of me driving on the same trip way...

Love the screeching...and his bitch friend.

Probably. He just didn’t seem as full of himself earlier.

Just now coming into this thread.


The more you know, the less you need.


Seems like a fine line sometimes.

I just finished the third episode. Well, that was depressing. Sounds like he was a miserable sonofabitch the last 15 years or so, and he made a lot of other people miserable as well.

I hate it...

The driving ones reminded me of this, old but good:

For some reason I’ve never heard that quote before. It impressed me.

^ Oh jeez. Good on you for caring for your friend’s kitty. And fuck cancer.

:eek: GWS.

It’s funny how you sometimes never visit the ‘attractions’ that are right where you’ve lived for a while. It’s a nice spring day, so I went for a ride and stopped by the local national historic park...

Oddly, the lady that cuts my hair went to cash-only when the pandemic hit.

Buckle up and hang on.

^ good one.

^ You’re kind of a fucking idiot. Do us a favor and split, kook.

Oh? How’s that?


So, you have no idea what you’re going on about. Quelle surprendre. Should have paid attention when you were hesitant.

She wasn’t back when I knew her. I appreciated her experience. Ask her about that night after the concert.

BTW, have you seen the show we’re talking about...or read any Hemingway?

A kind of interesting short interview with Ken Burns about the documentary.

And Burns seems to pretty much agree...

Are you my wife? “Is that what you’re wearing? Go change.”

When you’re old, you tend not to remember small things. And when you’re older, you tend not to give a shit.

Heh.

What’s this? An angry millennial? Hey, when you’ve settled down a little, can you show me how to use AirDrop on my iPhone? And say hi to your mom for me.

^ Haha! My friend and I were loading a double at, I think, Alta once. I was on the outside right, looking over my right shoulder as the chair approached. As the chair got close I heard a huge...

Right? It’s tv, not a comprehensive seminar.

That guy makes some points, but all he cares about is politics and such. I strongly doubt he’d make a more balanced piece about Papa.

Burns doesn’t get everything right, but I really like his...

Heh. It affected me too. I’d gotten my ass kicked for weeks on fires in AK before I went down and gotten my ass kicked for weeks on fires in MT/WY.

+1. I’ve only watched the first one, and it sent down the rabbit hole. I got fascinated by the stuff about Paris, and I picked up The Sun Also Rises for some re-reading. I read it before I was 20,...

Is this TRG? No one mentioned furious masturbation? It’s like I don’t even know you anymore.

That said, Alaska commercial fishing, or wildland fire.

Damn, go grrl - ¡salud!

Coupla nice lookin’ pooches on this page.

You sent me down a rabbit hole by mentioning the supercharger. I wasn’t really aware that Audi did that. Thanks...I guess.

I wonder how long this ruling will hold.
Judge halts California development, citing wildfire risk

The way that generally works is droughts can bring lighter fire seasons to grasslands and deserts, but heavier fire seasons to timbered country. Less rain, less grass, but brush and forest floor...

Whoa, hard to believe Ystone was over 30 years ago.

See? That sucks so much.

I haven’t seen a 3.0 Q5, and I lack the patience I’d need with dealers to try and order one.

I’m planning to do a Q5 vs. SQ5 test drive in the near future.

I think it’s the extended seasons that are hurting folks - 1200 hours of overtime is pretty much a norm for IHCs now - brutal. Some recognition of that, good appointments early on, and allowing crew...

I wonder if Deb Haaland is open to discussion on this?

I’m thinking about Audi Q series along those lines. Anyone?

Got a 4Runner for dirt.

Funding and fed firefighter appointment lengths are all that’s needed to address this.
