You shouldn't be getting rain in your shower.

I guess that depends if the shower is inside or out.

I thought Fridays were typically "1/2 day from home" kind of work?

that was an awsome movie.

Only Clint can still intimidate at the ripe age of 70ish something. He da man!

And "da man" just turned 79. As awe-inspiring as ever...

George never got over those injuries from walking the dog that one time. He died a bitter old man.

They aren't when you are doing database upgrades. They have to be done when everyone else is gone.

I'm barely out of my first adolescence, but I've decided to begin a second, and hopefully more satisfactory one with the purchase of some model kits to build.

Hey Reso, great minds think alike!

What'd you get? I ordered two 1/700 Hasegawa kits (King George V and Rodney) and three Airfix 1/72 kits (Hurricane IIB, Blenheim IV, and Fulmar II). I've subsequently heard bad things about the Blenheim, so I'm a little worried, but we'll see.

I built the Blenheim when I was 11 or 12, many, many moons ago. Got the Battle of Britain gift set to build with my 9yo son.

Step 1) turn off all upgrades and halt all AC production.
Step 1a) Look at HI points and if plentiful shutdown some HI.
step 2) Turn stuff back on as needed.
