    Those Crazy Confederates are still costing the US!

    Thread Hijacking Alert: The Savannah river deepening will go down as a gigantic boondoggle. They want to deepen the shipping channel but the COE will only allow them to deepen it to 47 feet, which isn't deep enough to get a super post panamax container vessel through the channel. They could...

    Sometimes you just need to scream!!!

    My wife and I started dating when we were seniors in high school. She had big plans to go to the University of Georgia for college and I was going to Clemson. Towards the end of our senior year she decided she wanted to go to Clemson (at the time she said it wasn't because of me, later in life...

    Describe you *** life with a movie title

    The Untouchables....? Actually I have no complaints in that department. Mrs. Chuck has joined a gym and it's really been a huge improvement in that department.

    Where are you now? Beware talking about smoking guns and ex-spouses.

    Sometimes you just need to scream!!!

    VT, Wasn't your ex in some Phd program or something? Really sorry to hear about the divorce, especially the surprising nature of it. At least you don't have kids involved.

    The Lawnmower Thread

    Thread has officially been derailed. WTF, I really enjoyed the lawnmower discussion. Now it's going to degrade into conversations about pubic hair.

    Oh wait, that wasn't what that post was about. Edit: I don't know much about dating so I'm probably no help. How much did you text him?

    Sometimes you just need to scream!!!

    My wife did that painting with a twist thing one time. I think she drank too much because the painting was awful. $30 dollars and a bottle of wine later and I have a barely recognizable estuary landscape in my kids' playroom. Edit: But I recall she was ready to party when she got home as she...

    The Lawnmower Thread

    On a somewhat related note, about 5 years ago some of my family pitched in and bought each of my grandmothers a Mantis tiller http://mantis.com/mantis-2-cycle-tiller.asp. I asked my grandmother if I could borrow hers a couple of months ago and it turns out that she used it once or twice and...

    The Lawnmower Thread

    I sharpen my blade twice a year. I probably need to change the oil and get a new air filter. Maybe I'll do that this weekend.

    The Lawnmower Thread

    I bought a Husqvarna with a 5.5 Hp Honda engine 8 years ago. It's a good mower and starts on the first crank every time but it's nowhere near the quality of the Honda mower my parents bought back in 1989. 23 years later that thing still works amazingly well and cranks on the first pull every...

    The Lawnmower Thread

    I have a Husqvarna rear wheel drive self propelled with a 5.5 Hp Honda engine on it that I bought back in 2004 and it starts every time on the first pull. I have never had to fix anything on it. Capt, I also have a Stihl blower and weedeater/edger and started having problems getting them to...

    Book Recommendations

    I liked Atlas Shrugged, but I thought Rand was a bit long winded in some of it. Although I'm not sure what she could have left out and driven the point home like she did.

    Book Recommendations

    I'm really into the apocalyptic stuff. I don't know why, but I've always found those books very interesting. Usually I read non-fiction, I'm reading a biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer right now. It's been sort of slow starting out.

    Book Recommendations

    I agree. It gets confusing and I found myself constantly going back trying to figure out who was saying "okay".

    Book Recommendations

    I couldn't find a forum for books not related to engineering so I thought I'd start one. If there is one already I'll delete this one. I read The Road this weekend. Truly one of the most disturbing things I've ever read. I can't get the images of it out of my head. Has anyone read this or...

    funny pic thread

    I like both ****s and butt. I suppose I'm genetically predisposed to look at the ****s first but I'm just a big fan of the female form in general.
