I'm not.
Avoiding mowing the lawn, that is.
As soon as the state of Vermont tells me I can stay in a hotel and I don't have to quarantine for 14 days, I plan to visit for real.
Category 2: Jack Skellington from ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ needs to be on there. Does Jack-Jack Parr from ‘The Incredibles’ count as a main character? Jack Swigert is a main character in ‘Apollo 13,’ yes? And isn’t Kurt Russell’s character in ‘Big Trouble in Little China’ Jack somethingorother?
Hanna, not just a show on Amazon Prime.
Still likely tracking south of us. I had planned on not mowing, but with the potential for multiple inches of rain, I am worried that the grass would be out of control by next weekend. And just like that, the first raindrops are falling.
Describe thy mowers! Self propelled but stand behind types? Riding?
Shocking admission. I've never mowed a lawn or used a lawnmower. Growing up our house was on a hill and the riding mower tipped over injuring the rider. So my mother wouldn't let me mow the lawn. But she made up for it by having us do lots and lots of yardwork. I despised it for that reason, and haven't done much since. I don't really want to start now because I'm sure the backyard is full of dog turds. I despise stepping in dog turds for any reason to this day.
I do feel I'm missing out on one of life's great pleasures. I pay someone to take care of our yard and get a good rate for once a week and once every couple weeks in winter. I guess it's worth it for me to have one less to-do on short summer weekends.
So no clue on lawnmowers. But I wonder what is the best lawnmower beer for those of you who know? Budwom knows. I'm thinking a Burial Inner tube lager would taste fabulous after mowing the lawn on a hot day.
This is mine:http://longtrail.com/beers/long-trail-ale%C2%AE
Full bodied amber ale, but it must be in a bottle for the glug glug effect, just not the same out of a can.
p.s. glad we've trained our dogs to poop off in the puckerbrush (off premeses)..no one enjoys The Order of The Brown Foot (especially wearing sneakers with elaborate soles)
I have a little more than a quarter acre to mow. I use a battery powered mower that is self-propelled at the press of a button. Knowing what I know now, I would have skipped the self propelled feature because the lawnmower is a lot lighter than a gas powered one.
I took advantage of a program from my utility company that reimbursed $50 of the mower cost if I went electric.

That sounds like such a tasty, flavorful, and refreshing beer. Another reason to make sure I get up to Vermont one day.
From beeradvocate:
"Long Trail Ale is a full-bodied amber ale modeled after the “Alt-biers” of Düsseldorf, Germany. Our top fermenting yeast and cold finishing temperature result in a complex, yet clean, full flavor. Originally introduced in November of 1989, Long Trail Ale beer quickly became, and remains, the largest selling craft-brew in Vermont. It is a multiple medal winner at the Great American Beer Festival."
I have a burly quarter acre on a serious hillside. I have a Black and Decker battery powered mower that I got because it is incredibly light. I also have a Husqvarna self-propelled mower. Which one I use depends on my mood. I feel like I'm still waiting to come across the perfect solution.
This one sounds fun. Never tried it unfortunately.
From a review:
Marley's Ghost Peppermint Stout
Marley's Ghost Peppermint Stout from Scarlet Lane Brewing in McCordsville.
Brewery: Scarlet Lane Brewing, 7724 Depot St., McCordsville, scarletlanebrew.com
ABV: 8 percent.
This limited edition release was brewed for the Indiana Repertory Theatre's performance of "A Christmas Carol." I wanted it to taste like a candy cane, and it didn't disappoint. It is brewed to perfection with chocolate malts and peppermint candies. I had my fair share during Scarlet Lane's showing of "Christmas Vacation."

fuse would know who makes the best mint girl scout cookie stout. And accfan no doubt would have something from the Veil, maybe a hornswaggler variant, that would be the best of all
now I want to seek out that pop tart
I think the perfect lawn solution is nice green grass that doesn't grow, just stays a couple inches long. Lacking that, I envy the battery solution, but my lawn is too large, hilly and pasture-like, requires a self propelled gas model, which I have. It's an aerobic venture, takes about an hour and a half, but I'm beginning to wonder how many more years I'll be up for this...
My idiot neighbor mows three times/week (seriously) because he has a zero turn rider he adores...it has nothing to do with grass and cutting thereof.
Not sure how many folks have kids, or themselves play first person shooter (FPS) games on Xbox Live.
We seem to have attracted some Xbox script kiddies that like to DDoS (distributed denial of service attack) our home network.
I’ve contacted Spectrum to no avail, and have begun googling all kinds of fun home remedies, like how to put your Xbox behind a VPN (virtual private network).
Anyone else experienced anything like this?
What path did you take for a solution?
When it came time to buy a home, I went with a townhome. I didn't mind mowing but there are other things I would rather do.
Early in my parents' marriage, my mother received a lawn mower for mother's day. She wasn't happy with it but they could afford a present or a mower and they needed a mower.
Fast forward 30 years and she got another one. Considering the size and. pitch of the yard, the ride on mower was a gift since July temperatures made her worry about Dad's health.
My wife and I still live in our first house (been here about 6 and a half years). It’s a zeroscape yard...lots of moss and small plants, heavily wooded. Not a blade of grass anywhere. Leaves are a horror for about 8 weeks in the fall, and it’s more than worth the nominal amount we pay the yard guy to take care of them. I’ve never mowed grass in my life and I never intend to. I hate yard work.
I mow, but it would be a misnomer to call it grass...I don't care what it is, if it's greenish it's OK by me...one of the best features I have is a patch about 120 feet long of nothing but thyme...great purple flowers, don't grow much vertically...gobs of moss, too...
I think the zeroscape yard is a pretty good idea, I owned a home like that for five years, never minded not mowing..
Here comes the rain again...
The closest thing I've ever had to the legendary chocolate peppermint PopTarts since Kellogg's stopped making them are chocolate snowball cookies flavored with a hint of peppermint extract. And I have misplaced that recipe. Unlike the PopTarts though, I imagine I could find the recipe again. Or just make chocolate snowball cookies and add the peppermint on my own, trial and error until I figure out how much is the right amount.
Those cookies are a Christmas time thing though, I can't imagine making them in, I dunno, July!
Beer that tastes like candy canes? Ok, yes, I'd try that.
I’ve had various neighborhood kids take care of the mowing for 20 years now. My most recent is now in his early 20s, haS a full time job (even now) and still likes the easy cash!
Then there was that yard on University Dr in Durm that was concrete painted green...
-jk
And I'm confident the beer boys and girls would love to try your snowball cookie recipe. I'm sensing a virtual pub theme for December maybe hosted by the regulars of the LTE. Hosting is easier than you think. It involves typing a post saying "we're open" and optionally logging into zoom at 5-ish to share milk stout and cookies with Santa.
Merry Christmas in July LTE
Started doing curbside from the grocery store. Great service, but they always surprise you with items they don't have at the last second. Then what do you do?
Months ago I did one of the very first curbside pickups offered by a large chain grocery store, had my mask on, and at my appt. time out comes the young clerk, no mask, and she marches right up to me and sticks her face inside my car window! WTF? The woman behind me on line stuck her head out her window and started guffawing...not a good start, but I hear they're doing better.
Yeah, when they don't have what you want, they substitute, and will run back in if you don't like it. I've been sneaking into another market at geezer hours (same at Costco) but if things get worse i'll go back to curbside.
This is actually only my second curbside pickup. I’m a slow adopter. They have the process down fairly well. I’m stocked up for about 3 weeks of the item that was out of stock. It is a daily use item, but I do get a bit nervous if inventory drops below certain levels.
We are in the thick of it here. We’ve had more cases in a single day than Vermont has had the entire time. And while this Metro is 3-4x the size of Vermont, well.
I have been going to a grocery store that is small, on the expensive side, and doesn't have the room for a lot of inventory, so, when I go (always about 45 minutes before closing, so, late but not so late that I can't comfortably finish before they close) there usually aren't very many other shoppes. What this store lacks in variety it makes up for in proximity (and lack of other customers when I'm doing my shopping!)
BUT
Yesterday I went to one of the bigger stores that isn't too far away. It's the first time since April that I braved a different, larger, better prices, more choices store. The last time I went to one of those, the number of unmasked people willing to crowd themselves near me scared me. This time, yeah, it's impossible to keep at least 6ft away from everyone in the store, but, they all wore masks, they mostly followed the one way arrows on the floor, and it didn't terrify me. I'll still keep trips to one of the bigger stores to a minimum, but, every once in awhile, I gotta do it.
The shelves were stocked but not overly so. Some aisles had completely empty sections.
Scene outside of town: dead raccoon on the side of the road (nothing new there), but it has a helium balloon tied to one of its legs that cheerily says "Get Well Soon!"
Went out to get in my car to drive to the socially distanced rehearsal only to find an enormous tree branch had fallen onto my driveway. No house damage and no care damage, whew. Feeling really lucky right now. The sons and I were able to successfully move the branch (actually branches) to the side yard. Hubby is in Maryland. I'm not dealing with it until he comes back, but, there is enough stuff that it might require hiring a landscaping/yardwork type business to come remove it.
I have a new fundraising idea for youth group. We have met in front of church last Sunday and today. Both times we have had rain but locations just a mile away didn't get any. We will have youth group in your yard for a donation toward next year's mission trip. No guarantee you will get rain but we are establishing a good track record.
This wasn't knocked down by the wind which is scary. What we think happened was that branch had been broken off by a previous storm but stopped by another branch instead of falling to the ground. The second branch managed to hold the weight of the first branch for awhile but eventually broke off.
Sounds like an arborist should check that tree out.
Yes, perhaps. I think we did have an arborist check it out before, but that would have been a few years ago now.
Glad all is ok.
The tree fall reminds me of a guy I know who moved from Ohio to NC in September 1996. He had been in NC for three or four days when Hurricane Fran hit. One tree fell and crushed his pickup and another one into the living room of the house he had just bought.
We don't get too many hurricanes up here. For those of us around here who grew up in NC, Hurricane Hazel hit Durham in 1954 (before my time but it was my father's freshman year at Duke) and Durham didn't get hit by another Hurricane until Hugo in 1989. (Hugo hit the Charlotte area much harder than Durham.) So, my experience with hurricanes is limited. I moved to the Boston area in 1987. I did manage to be in Durham for Hurricane Matthew a few years ago. We lost power for about 10 hours. It wasn't Fran. Mom and Dad joke that any trees they were going to lose to hurricanes have already been lost.
We live in an area which gets periodic crazy downdraft winds off the Green Mountains (from the Southeast, which is unusual)...every few years we get a big one, e.g. 80-100 mph winds.
The last one knocked down about 150 seventy foot pine trees, roughly 35 across the driveway, three on the house, no juice for five days. President of the state's biggest electric company came by for a look, we were ground zero.
We NEVER could have gotten out of our driveway without the unsolicited help of our kind neighbors..after I helped a neighbor with his lesser damage (by literally crawling thru the mess) neighbors came over to our house, one by one, resulting in 12 people, five chain saws, and two VERY large tractors with front loaders that could life huge tree pieces up and drop them in the woods. Took six hours...really made us feel good about our neighbors, all of them got boxes of chocolates and bottles of champagne...
Three years later (and $14,000 later) we're back to normal, tree remnants hauled away, some new trees planted, new driveway put in...hope there isn't a "next one" any time soon. I now know more about pine trees than I ever wanted to.
Back in my teen years (the 70’s) I spent many a long, hard day cutting and splitting wood from Hazel at my grandparents’ house. They had a couple dozen large oaks come down (none hit the house).
The wood was well seasoned.
Also, after Hugo hit Charlotte, it hit the NC mountains near the VA border hard. Stands of trees knocked down.
-jk
I was in Winston-Salem during Hugo. A huge tree fell across the main entrance of campus, and they cancelled classes b/c profs couldn't make it into town. We've had some scary could've-beens lately here in Durham. BD, your parents probably still do have a lot of tall, tall pines like I do. They snap off at the top during storms b/c of their deep roots. The oaks are the ones that come completely uprooted. Scary stuff. Fran was especially bad b/c it rained for days before the storm hit and the ground was just saturated. It took nothing to uproot very big, very old oak trees all around town.
The local news stations are reporting dangerous heat levels today. It's supposed to hit 98 in the mid/late afternoon.
Time for me to go walk 3 miles.
got our long walk in 7:30, dew point is now 70, it's ugly...a/c man comes in a few weeks, I've surrendered to Mother Nature.
Next play.
Sorry to hear, mattman, but glad that it seems you’re able to maintain perspective about it all.
I applied for a job a couple of years ago that I felt was perfect for me. I didn't even get an interview. About a month after I applied, the job was listed again. I applied a second time. I still didn't get an interview. In the 3+ years now that I have been on per diem status at BWH, I have applied for something like 10 jobs. I have never gotten an interview. Not one. Luckily my husband is gainfully employed and I still get per diem work from the Brigham from time to time, but, if I were in worse financial shape, not sure what I'd do. I think it comes down to my age. The next time I apply for a job that I would at least like to be interviewed for, I am removing all dates from my resume. I am not currently looking for a job.
In many respects, I am so glad that I'm not starting a career right now. Obviously, I don't know how to even look for a job since I can't even get interviewed.
I wish you good luck, Matt. Hope the next one is the right one.
I used to keep a file of every law firm rejection letter I got in law school. Then burned them when I ended up with a job I liked (and where I still am today, 29 years later).
It was not a small file.
I've had lots of job rejections but have never not had a job. As mattman noted, next play.
Absolutely it will! I truly believe that because you are outstanding with people and super-smart in a non-offensive way. There are plenty of people who are super-smart in an offensive way, but the latter do better.
Their loss indeed, but it will happen.
I used to think I would be a sandwich artist for life because of my grades at Duke. But my pre-med advisor at Duke (Kay Singer) believed in me, and I believed in myself. Or maybe more likely divine intervention, but I'll drink a beer to that too.
And we're drinking a great one to celebrate when it happens.
I'm lucky to have a job now, and one that I don't (always) hate. The issue is it isn't in the location that I desire, and there isn't much more room for growth where I am at. My problem is that I am not patient. If I do not learn to be patient, I will become one :rolleyes::p.
I am currently in Staffing/Recruitng, and you are absolutely right that employers discriminate based on age (not us!:cool:). There have been several times that I have interviewed strong candidates that hiring/HR managers will not give the time of day because of their age. It is better to leave off old experience (older than 10 years) and leave off education dates if you feel it will "age" you too much.
Damn right, and I still owe you one!
I really outkicked my coverage on this one. I was not at all qualified for it (on paper at least) but made it to the final 2. At the end of the day, that is about as valuable as UNCheat's 1924 National "Championship".:rolleyes:
FWIW, I was out of work a couple of years ago and applying like crazy. I had several really good phone interviews that let to really good in-person interviews. There was one that I was convinced was in the bag. I did not get it. It still burns me a bit, b/c I would have been a great hire for them. Months down the road, on a listserve, I came across a posting that I knew would be the path to getting me back where I should be. I nailed both interviews and was offered the job on the spot. I was only there 10 months, but I learned a lot, and it led me to my current position, which is where I wanted to be several years ago and thought I would never make it.
So, hang in there. It will come!
I applied three separate times for a job I really wanted over the course of a year and a half. It was a job I really wanted with a great organization. After I whiffed the second time, I contacted the Executive Director and asked if I had done anything wrong with my interview, and why I wasn't hired. He explained that a late internal candidate had applied and was chosen.
This gave me the confidence to apply the third time and get the job. It was a great job and opened up lots of opportunities for me going forward.
MattMan91, you have a bright future ahead of you!
Serenity now...
When I started my teaching career, only one place even gave me a real interview. It didn’t make sense to me, because I knew who I was and who I would be as a teacher. I nailed that one interview, got the job, and have now worked my way up to my dream position. I will always owe a debt of gratitude to that one person who gave me a chance, but I will never understand why nobody else did.
Hiring decisions often don’t make a whole lot of sense.
Another thing I have learned being on the other end of lots of hiring recently, is that as the candidate, you have immense pressure and a sense of urgency. The hiring entity may not share that sense of urgency - 48-72 hours with no contact from someone you have applied with can feel like months, whereas the person looking at applications may have simply taken a long weekend.
With fifteen percent unemployment, it's gonna be a bit of a haul to get back to whatever the new normal is.
My heart goes out to folks who are losing their federal Unemployment Bonus of $600/week right now. That's messy.
Took the youngest in for his annual physical with his pediatrician, you know, check out everything that isn't tumor related. She helped me press upon him that he has to wear his back brace because his scoliosis has gotten worse and if it gets too much worse, he may be facing surgery and potential disability.
He's also probably only to grow another inch or so which will mean he will wind up the shortest of my sons by a couple of inches. He doesn't care about that. And alas, the excitement over breaking 100 pounds on the home bathroom scale was dashed at the doctor's office where he weighed 95. I told him he can get there, sooner rather than later, if he ups the candy and burger intake.

We have about 1/3 acre here at Stately Turk Manor. I use regular Sears mower (self-propelled). We have an annoying slope in the front yard that is steep enough to walk across to mow. Takes about an hour or so. My definition of gardening means: "has to be green and fit under the lawn mower. I am told by some of the older neighbors that they used to have annual riding mower races. "Be still, my beating heart!!" Papa Turk bought a new mower and the self-propelled boost helps a lot on his mostly flat yard...

Ha, Candygram was just terrific. Hot tip of the day is that if you should avoid swimming where there are lots of seals.
I'm hungry for some candy now. I wonder if I have a delivery coming soon?
I am pleased with your purchase too!
I have a confession to make. I have lived in NC all my life, and I ordered a fake Christmas tree yesterday. I'm still having trouble dealing with the . . the . . . guilt? As part of my penance, I know I will be sweeping up past years' needles for years to come.
Sister Sue and I would shop for trees together every year, usually on what ended up being the coldest day of the year. Our best trees were bought on the 23rd one year - perfect shape and height and only $7. Her husband would always suggest we get an artificial tree. We refused for the longest time. Finally, 25 years ago or so, we couldn't find a decent tree for under $50 so we ended up at Seasonal Concepts and bought a fake tree. I got home from work one day and she had left me a message - when you put up the tree, do it naked. The instructions suggested shaking each branch over a sheet to get any loose "needles" to drop on the sheet for removal later. However, the stupid things clung to her clothes and she ended up with them all over the house. I quit feeling guilty when I realized I wouldn't have to drag the tree to the curb by myself when it was ready for the trash. I still have that tree.
It is a version where you have to click each branch onto the trunk. I finally figured out that the best way to put the lights on the tree was to put the first level of branches on, lay the lights on those branches, add the next layer of branches, lay the lights on those branches, and so on. It works really well.
For the record, it is too hot to knit.
Better or worse than this?

With the brothers around though, they are going through a big bag of them every 2 days.
That is why I don't keep much snacking stuff around.
anybody know why the presidential thread got locked?
I haven't read it in a long time.
Trying to get the LTE locked down also?
We had chicken piccata over homemade pasta this evening and it was v good.

Speaking of yummy, the cookbook at my son's school can use recipes in pretty much any category although the main dishes has by far the most.
Categories: Beverages/Appetizers, Vegetables/Side Dishes, Main Courses, Desserts, Cookies/Candy, This and That
There might be one more that I can't remember right now. Only one cookie recipe so far and only 2 vegetable/side dishes.
Does “see bottle or can of Diet Mountain Dew, open, consume” count as a beverage recipe? I’ve greatly scaled back my soda consumption but still partake.
Holly the heroic dog swam after four ducks today, seemed like she was headed to New Hamster, but eventually turned around. Fun!

If this isn't a Mac n' Cheese year, when will be have one?
Only 84F out right now. Yesterday it was closer to 95F at this time of day.
I reduced my Diet Coke from 3 or more a day to 1 each morning (I don't drink coffee) and maybe one other a week when I had lunch out. When I ran out 3 weeks ago, they hadn't been on sale in quite a while. I figured they would go on sale within a week so I held out. Coke products (12oz cans) haven't gone on sale yet so I have quit. I'm channeling my inner Jack Diemer* and going with ice tea.

All quiet on the LTE front. Or should I say the PTE?
Does anyone use Audible.com?
I subscribed but have yet to download anything. Maybe when pollen levels, etc. die down in late September/October it may make sense for me as I will likely try and be outside moving more.
I use the Apple audiobooks app a lot. I have listened to a lot of great books while taking long walks along the river on the weekends.
You can also get some great content in the Apple music library, like Joseph Campbell's complete lecture series and some of the Dan Carlin Hardcore History programs. I love both of those.
Pretty sure I did not cause the latest lockdown. But went back and read my posts to make sure.
This thread does go through slow spells.
I feel for Jason and the Mods (good band name, btw) for trying to keep that thread open and moving. Hard and thankless job. Most posters toe the line pretty well, even if we all get a little too relaxed with the rules sometimes.
You can drop in on the Presidential thread a couple of times a month and get a quick take on what DBR posters are thinking. That's enough. Reading it everyday, for me, is boring.
I need to stick to just the LTE. And soon the TPTE.
Olympic National Park was serene as others have mentioned.
Reminded me of Hawaii in several different ways.
Rain gauge registered 4 inches yesterday. Flash flooding in the area. It is keeping the temperatures down.
4 inches would cause a lot of flooding here. We start to see issues with a couple inches of rain. We have a lot of limestone near the surface which doesn’t exactly absorb water quickly.
Some parts of the viewing area for the local TV stations got 6 - 9 inches. We have started to joke that the youth group will meet in your backyard for a donation to the mission trip fund. We have had torrential rain the last two meetings but other parts of town didn't get any. Wednesday evening one of the youth and I, with his parents, were meeting and it poured on us. So it may not take the whole youth group.
I still have 6.1 miles to go today to finish the Massachusetts Virtual Endurance Challenge. Off to go walk a 10k right now. I've mostly walked it. It's just been too hot to run. It's probably not too hot for a run today but, I've got to do a 10k, so I'll walk the first half and then see how I feel.
From where I sit, we are on page 1459 of this thread. That's a Fibonacci sequence (and the last 4 digits of my phone number when I was growing up). If you ascribe to the theory of phone numbers as laid out by Douglas Adams in The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, the fact that I wound up with a career in math/statistics is directly related to me having a phone number that was a Fibonacci sequence when I was growing up. I certainly think so. ;)
Just that everything in life is actually determined by phone numbers. Apparently they are what make the infinite probability drive work (or something like that, it's been awhile since I read it too. I just remember phone numbers were really important and I agreed with the premise.)
I will not be wishing Ole Roy a happy birthday today.
I am watching the premier of Muppets Now on Disney+ today.
Hotter than I thought it was. Only made it 4.2 miles. Going to put in the last 2 miles this evening when it's cooler.
I quite liked it! I'm an easy sell with any Muppets content, but I think this is the first time Disney has really hit on the traditional Muppets tone in quite some time (maybe ever). It's an updated riff on the variety show, with Zoom-like videoconferencing as a framing device that helps give structure without feeling forced. The first episode had a style segment with Miss Piggy, a cooking segment with the Swedish Chef, an offbeat how-to kind of thing with Kermit and Walter, and an interview with Ru Paul.
I laughed out loud quite a few times and was pleasantly surprised with how faithful I thought it was to the tone the Muppets are supposed to strike. Gets an A from me and I'll be excited to see the upcoming weekly episodes.
A question from the National Food Days thread - is cheesecake a pie? Discuss.
I say it's a pie. Goo into crust then into oven = pie
I also say I would enjoy eating an entire cheesecake but that ain't never no way going to happen ever.
Here's a fine point though: consider throwing a pie into ol'huck's fachia brute in honor of his birthday today. Banana Cream would be the most obvious choice but cheesecake/pie would be less spectacular.
In high school, Amy and I, at the request of our boss, hit the veterinarian in the face with a pie. I believe it was at a Rotary meeting. My job was to remove his glasses so she could deliver the pie.
You don't like cheesecake?
Does that word mean something different where you live than it does here in Asheville?
Actually, do any of these words mean something else? I need to understand:
Don't
Like
Cheesecake
Please let me know what is different in your regional dialect.
