    Idaho

    I went to college in Moscow and reading this made me laugh. "Idaho is not only number one in potato growing but produces the most lentils, too. Latah County is referred to as the Dry Pea and Lentil Capital of the World, where peas and beans are grown in the Palouse hills surrounding Moscow. The woman's rugby team took it's name from this The Dusty Lentils. Everybody at school called them The Dusty Lesbos.
  2. He has the personality type of someone bent on a shooting rampage.
  3. That's good news. It's about time.
  4. I've been sticking with walking recently. I'm pretty happy that I've upped the long sets of stairs to 7 flights. That's a pretty good work out. I've never been much of a swimer, but maybe I should look into that.
  5. Sausagefest was a ton of fun. Cool pictures and cool people.
  6. Ultimately folks who live nearby will have to fight it out. I'd only make one point in regards to trees. Trees do add value to a location. Both trees in forested areas and those near developed structures. Either by vote or through a developers plan trees are going to have to go if the decision is to build up that area with structures. If that area is going to get developed then the best plan is to remove all the trees that are either in the middle of the location of new buildings or those that are located within striking distance of the planned structures. Even if you may not need to remove a tree to build you have to consider the damage the trees could do to a new building if it were to fall. After the building goes up it's a good idea to require replanting of new trees. If done correctly the new trees will adapt to the new site better than leaving a tree but damaging the root system of that tree. Views are always an issue, but you have too keep in mind that the view you want are tree covered areas in the distance. Well people live in areas where their view is towards the new structure and the bluffs. I bet they don't want to look at a bunch of ugly houses or whatever in the middle of their view. You can pick varieties of trees that look nice but still maintain views for everybody. Anyway I hope somebody up their is looking over the shoulders of the developers up there and requiring them to take tree preservation into account or requiring replanting of new trees.
  7. I wouldn't do that, but I could see Seahawks doing that.
  8. Shit in a bag. Leave it on a doorstep, light it, then ring the bell.

    Dude who needs that when you can have a Sparks malt energy beer This stuff is da bomb. Don't just ask me. Talk to Jeff H, he loves it.
  10. Right on Carolyn! That's great to hear.
  11. I have seen fixed pins. It's always been obvious when that was the plan. I agree with Kev that fixed stoppers are rare and it's also obvious that somebody bailed and couldn't figure another way out.
  12. I thought you posted a good picture of yourself. Sorry if you're getting unwanted attention. Unfortunately CC has a mix of posters. I thought you got some good response from people who actually count.
  13. The bankers around LA must be in a bad mood.
  14. I'll be interested to hear how they plan to enforce this new law. Are you going to have to walk through a toll booth before you climb the mountain. Maybe they won't trigger a rescue till they hear a beep on the recorder.
  15. This is what I've always figured. I always get plastic unless I need a trash bag then I ask for paper. You can put more junk in a paper bag than one of those plastic jobs
  16. No silly different times.
  17. Lake City or Ballard. Lake City isn't a party hub, but you are one step closer to Index or 11worth. Ballard is a bit further to get out of town, but it isn't too bad. There are more nightime places to hang out at. I've lived in both.
  18. No it's Fleurys. It's just south of Market on Leary. Corner of Leary and 20th.

    I actually deleted one of his posts. Now go out there and start a fight with him. It will be fun to watch.

    Dude, I said I didn't have the energy to go over the whole thing. You weren't the only one getting beat down. Spray is spray, but you need to figure out the general theme of the topic and try to work with it. Some threads are smack downs, others are serious political discussions, and others like this one end up being positive displays of people on this site. If you want to talk smack there's plenty around here, and I have no interest in going over every thread.
  21. Kodak Carousel is just fine or something like that.
  22. For years I've taken all my large work trucks to Fleury's Tire 5244 Leary Way NW 782-5141 Trust me they do way more than just tires. I've taken a number of big work trucks there, and the company I used to work for used to take trucks that were even bigger there. Not that you need a CDL to drive a landcruiser.

    I don't have the energy for a full job, but I did a little cleaning in this thread. It's about the ladies. There are some great pictures here also unless I do some more cleaning.
  24. I hope somebody brings a regular projector....non dvd. I can do that if nobody else has one.
