I finally got another palindrome!!!
BackwoodsmanVA, you must mean a job for ~$1 USD a day...I'm sure you're attracted to the high rate of employment in Mexico and the average standard of living in China. Based on business we do in both countries, I'm sure the reality won't live up to your fantasies. |

OTOH, I have a friend I met through business who was quite successful and highly respected in his field here in the U.S. as well as Europe and South America...and last year he quit it all and moved to China to partner up with some people in his field of expertise...water treatment. I imagine there are such opportunities if you happen to be able to take advantage of certain niche requirements. |

I remember! I remember!
Jet, the weekend and holiday rate is double time and a half until 6am Monday morning, at which time it drops back to regular pay for the 1st 8 hours and then time and a half for any overtime. |
I've said that before, tho I cannot recall from whence exactly.
I don't think too much, I just improvise. Could someone describe what this site is about? I bookmarked it awhile ago, under "PicInspiration Blogs" Is it a picture site? BOOOOOOOM! - CREATE * INSPIRE * COMMUNITY * ART * DESIGN * MUSIC * FILM * PHOTO * PROJECTS (I haven't visited it at all in the past six months.) |

What kind of solutions, scrubbinies do you use to clean the (auto) parts?
|
I just brought the parts into my kitchen to see if I clean them in the sink, but if it gets too messy I'll take them to work on Monday since we have a professional parts cleaner.
The sooty sort of dirt I've had on my hands since fondling the parts seems to easily wash off with mild dish detergent. So I'll try just brushing the parts with that and water. I think the dirt is just mostly oily vapor depositions over time. |
Happy to assist. Send over parts, and I'll wash em for ya....
Use Kero to wash the parts.... |
- This (Thread) is crazy yeah weirdo and nice...

Hey, I was interviewing for the job first! 1835
And I'm sure my shipping costs are miniscule, probably less (meant: free) if I took the [piece(s)] train. Kero? Is it a product, or a person? Kero One |
Large tanks of boiling Trichloroethylene.
Put the parts in a basket, walk up the steps, Hold your breath, dunk dunk dunk. Ahhh...the memories. |
Okay, I was right. He is an underground hip-hop artist.
Also: In 2005, Kero One released the self-produced album, "Windmills of the Soul," which was named the "Best Hip Hop Album of 2006" by Reemix Magazine. In 2007, he opened the office for own Plug Label. In 2009, he released his sophomore album, "Early Believers." ... both albums are now on my ever-expanding wishlist of albums to own. I still have to find that "pajama" CD that BadNick posted in the "visual architectronics" thread. Did I save the name? 1833 |
Zook, thanks, I'm sure kero would work great. I was also thinking brake cleaner...but first I want to try something easily disposed of like dish detergent. I recall some realiable Dupont data on how even a little spill of oil or kerosene is highly polluting of the local underground water table.
damn, the Aussie's are takin' over! Hi Bijoufem. |
|
I cant make out the names!
not even in this post 1831 it seems like the link expired... I wonder if I can transfer the image? I'm talking to myself, aren't I? Radio aficionado, Nick: does your local area station carry FoxSportsNews overnights or do you have better luck with the SportingNews? I personally prefer the latter, but the new former is growing on me. |

Also, for those of you that truly know my keen intuition and uncanny knack for finding my coincidences, I researched (finally) the album picture that BadNick posted about 2-and-half-months ago (08/24). the album name is <S> marks the Spot ; artist: Sandwich okay, here is an audible version: track #11 "Selos" (I think the whole album is on youtube; also, I don't know what language this particular tune is sung in, but by the title, I think it is Espanol ~ "selos" means sky, heavens I think, or is it "cielos"? Ah, he said "la luna"... I'm still not sure.) whatever, it's a good song, I think. What I want you to look at is the upload date on youtube: it was uploaded today. It's like I was meant to find it, none other day, no other inspiration, or conversation before this moment, for me to happen upon it. 1831 Weird. The most coincidental man in the world does it again. |
Both.
Living alone is, is an alone matter. I'm grateful for all you and the 2-D companionship. |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_(band)
There's the link above. This is the (abridged) history: Sandwich is a Filipino rock band that was formed in 1995 by Raimund Marasigan and Diego Castillo for the purpose of fulfilling their mutual desire to work together. Castillo recruited former band mates (from The Aga Muhlach Experience) Mike Dizon (of Teeth) to play drums and Myrene Academia to handle bass duties. Marasigan was a judge at a contest where Marc Abaya jammed to a Beastie Boys song with his band, Shirley Beans. He was then recruited by Marasigan to be their vocalist. The album that Nick posted innocuously elsewhere, and I remembered I said I'd look for it, then I did for ten minutes (ago), and I've wound up here. I just can't believe that the entire album (which was released sometime in 2008) was uploaded in its entirety just today, when I had an itch to find out more. I guess music is my thing today. (I just finished watching Almost Famous about two-and-a-half hours ago.) ---------- Post added at 06:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:33 PM ---------- ah, so: I forgot to mention: if I ever say I just completed watching a film, it means I watched it for the first time, and for the most part, I liked it. This is how it shapes up as, now 2-and-a-third years later: Recent Movies click to show |
I don't see 'Good Will Hunting' on your list yet,
I think you would enjoy that film. |
Yeah, I've watched that film maybe four times over, but I never list films that I haven't seen in its entirety, which is why it is absent.
I think I know what happens at the end, but I can never sit through the whole thing. I also noticed I listed Hotel Rwanda twice. now amended. Total films in over 800+ days and counting of tally marks: 219 films I wanted to talk more about the errie linkages of 'Sandwich'. 1829 |

Light, stardust, and radiance is what makes up these atoms of being. The eerie bit is that the first track of the album I mentioned maybe five posts above, is my self-professed 1/3 marker of me: |

I personally would love to see this film again, especially the first twelve minutes of it: Chan Is Missing (1982) ---------- Post added at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ---------- Oh, wow, if you follow my cartoon affinity thread (and the now-defunct Music Videos thread as well), then you know how much I respect the Library of Congress Continuity Program.

Jet...Mr. Coincidence,
Pretty eerie coincidence about the Sandwich music album. I remember that picture of the girl holding the CD. Since you complained about your internet bandwidth, I wonder if this works for you...it being a live radio link broadcast of SportingNews Sporting News - Radio Is FoxSportsNews a single global entity, or do they have many different localized broadcasts? ...I don't know. ---------- Post added at 01:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 AM ---------- WXPN is my favorite radio station that I listen to almost all the time. They have a live feed online at Listen Live One of my favorite shows produced by WXPN is World Cafe which is syndicated to many other stations in the U.S., not sure about worldwide. But NPR offers a podcast of World Cafe here NPR: World Cafe Words and Music from WXPN Podcast : NPR Podcasts |

I inquire because recently my favorite radio station, besides having its format flipped from talk radio to sports talk radio, switched its allegiance from SportingNews Radio to the growing monopoly that has become FoxSportsNews. 1826 |
how about satellite radio...like Sirius XM
I don't have it but people who do say they can listen to anything anytime, even sports radio or talk radio, or even Howard Stern. |

I already forgot what I had previously written. While I prefer SportingNews, after being exposed to FoxSports News now day and night for awhile, I found I like what has been referred to as ""possibly the best sports talk show host in America" in Tony Bruno. I also like the "celebration of life through sports", hosted by David Stein (SportingNews). FoxSports is in the major markets, such as Dallas, New York, LA, Philly, and more... it's just a growing monopoly of talking heads muttering about balls, with only a few of them actually having a worthwhile opinion. Man, my first post was much more coherent than this smattering that I'm offering now. 1824 (what?! my token has expired? what does that mean?) |

Oh, my first reply went through! Disregard the last then.
Also, the National Film Registry link that I posted previously now has me reinvigored to procure some choice titles to be added to some select threads. Also, so this post doesn't go to waste, 1823, here's a new GIF for your collection, BadNick (and skier, but I don't think he's coming back). :oogle: Attachment 20465 (nevermind... the animated pikture was too big) |

What the hell is a "betty"???? Is it common to have them underwater? These are the things I would like to know. |

not cool guys!! you let it go again! fix it.

My mom's dog ran away.
I thought I had the dog cornered when she ran up the wide steps of the Veterans Hall building. The dog scooted past me. Somehow I was able to heave my 50 year old-200lb body into the air. The flying tackle was a success. Dog captured. My knees and left shoulder need some fixing though. Ice is pretty cool. Time for heat. |
bouncing betty's, not commonly found underwater as i can remember, i seem to run into them frequently in any case
|
carrot,
my kid told me he has to "turn on my mod" and then the game lets him put betty's underwater so he can better blow up unsuspecting passers-by. Just from overhearing conversations from my den, I gather that these mods, of which there are many, are frowned upon by some serious players since it's basically cheating by use of some weird hack to the controller or game software. I think my kid has other mods that greatly increase his firing rate and other such useful war capabilities...though I think he's finally realizing that to gain respect of his fellow soldiers, he has to kill everybody within the rules. Do you ever use a "glitch"? I think that lets you move through the landscape in "unnatural" ways...like getting from here to there without passing through the space between, or you can walk through walls and over roofs that are normally inaccessible...so I'm just learning this from hearing "our recon plane will find them wherever they hide" and other such banter. |

1822 “確かに小説や漫画や映画の世界では、「トラウマ」というのは、「『克服』されなければならないもの」として取り扱われている場合がほとんどです。そして、それらの作品の登場人物は、さまざまな困難にもめげずに、その「トラウマ」を乗り越えていくのです。 でも、普通の人間にとっては、「トラウマ」というのは「必ずしも克服可能なものではない」のも厳然たる事実なんですよね。たとえば、子供の頃に親に虐待されていたというトラウマを持っている人が、大人になったときにその親を赦して和解できるか？という場合、すべての人が「僕の親なのだから」「私も大人になったのだから」ということで、自分を納得させることができるわけではないと思うのです。いやもちろん、そこで和解できれば「幸せ」なのかもしれないけれども、人間の感情というのはそんなに簡単に切り替えられるようなものではないんですよね。 しかしながら、そこで「和解できない」のも当然のことなのにもかかわらず、「トラウマは乗り越えなければならない」という強迫観念のために「虐待されたトラウマ」＋「トラウマを乗り越えられない弱い自分を責める気持ち」に二重に苦しめられてしまうようなことも、現実にはけっして少なくないのです。ドラマに感化されてしまった「トラウマを持たない人」たちは、「人間として、親を赦せないのはおかしい！」なんて平然と口にしたりするものですし。 もちろん、「トラウマ」を乗り越えて幸せになれるのだったらそれに越したことはないのですが、多くの場合、生きるというのは、いろんな「捨てられないネガティブなもの」を抱えながらの旅になってしまいます。でも、そんな荷物の重さに苦しみながらも、人は綺麗な景色を観て感動することができるし、美味しいものを食べたときには頬が緩んでしまったりもするのです。 トラウマを抱えながらでも「それなりに幸せになるという道すじ」だって、たぶん、たくさんあるのです。少なくとも、僕はそう信じています。そもそも、全く挫折のない人生なんて存在しないだろうとも思いますしね。” http://19.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ks...5vu7o1_500.jpg |
