Bill’s first Mik entry 2024

I think your cat has found a new cathouse to hang out in. At least he will keep the mice out of there. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

What man doesn’t like a good cat house lol. . .Bill you might be the first person to build a structure for your pet instead of a project for your RR. The rules are vague here. It needs to be a 'thing" served by a siding on your RR. I think a hotel/brothel for your man friend is thinking outside the box. I like it.

With the end of the Mik, suddenly I have an extra hour each day. It’s like daylight savings time… who’d have thought?!

:astonished:

This reminds me of the motto:
I’d rather have a bottle in front of me…
Than a frontal lobotomy

:woozy_face:

In college, many moons ago, the variant I heard was:

I’d rather have a free bottle in front of me
Than a pre-frontal lobotomy.

Close! :crazy_face:

when i was young, we had a game. simple and single rule: the last one sitting upright on a barstool wins.
biggest disadvantage - there was never anybody left, to applaud the winner.

for many decades now, i prefer to build little houses and little people. at least one has something to brag about…

Ah yes, the indestructible years!

Two tequila

Since Bill isn’t objecting to compounded derailments…

Korm, while picturing what you described, I couldn’t help but recall something I’ve not remembered for maybe ~50 years.

I was at a church youth group meeting at someone’s house, where there was typically an “icebreaker game” of some sort. Someone allowed me to pick the game in advance… I forget who or where I got the idea from…

I explained, the game is called “Sock.” And all you have to do is, after ten minutes, end up with the most socks." The adult in charge then turned off the lights.

You wouldn’t believe the mayhem [edit: and screaming] that fifteen or so 14-year-olds could wreak upon a dark living room.

So imagine that if alcohol was involved! Which it wasn’t, but just saying.

BTW, I won. I shoved all the socks I got down my pants.

OK, TMI…

:laughing: :grin:

OK BILL: Way off target… But MIK is over…

Fun, Fun, Fun…

…and yet hit the target well. :joy:

Dave leave Australia alone. Paul Hogan will ensure that the first party on Mars will be a roo eating shrimp on a barbie while wrestling a croc while holding a real knife.

Bill sucks I have a sudden desire to buy crocodile dundee 1 and 2. The original docuseries on Australia.

Devon, both were on channel 333 on DIRECTV over the weekend.

I’m trying to see where the punctuation goes…

Bill sucks; I have a sudden desire to buy crocodile dundee 1 and 2.

-or-

Bill, sucks I have a sudden desire to buy crocodile dundee 1 and 2.

:face_with_monocle:

Ha. :grimacing:

Today, Herself noted the arrival of the sacred nailer of pins along with the artefact of non-standard railways and confirmed with our friends just how far the Cult of LargeScale Centralia had taken over my life.

I don’t think they’re setting up an intervention, yet…

Well if I ever get pulled over and am asked if I am under the influence. I will say “Yes sir, and their names are @Dave_Taylor @Korm @WaverlySouthern @JRad @Jim_Rowson @capecodtodd.

:joy:

Thanks Guys!

Both work. You suck because it sucks that because of you I want to watch those two movies.

Devon,

When watching Crocodile Dundee, look at the night scenes in the Bush. We have salties and freshwater crocks. It’s the salties you have to really watch out for.

If you travel to the top end after THE WET, the Park Rangers will stalk out the water holes at night for 2 weeks to ensure it’s safe for the tourists in Kakadu. They look for the reflection of the spotlights off the crocodile eyes :eyes:.

From experience, salt water will reflect a different colour from their eyes. That may help you crossing a body of water at night… but they’ve been known to coexist.

So if you are from Northern Idaho you’ll want to pay attention. Here is how you use the eyes to tell the difference between certain species…

Alligators will see you later and Crocodiles will see you in a while!

I did know this thanks to that other famous Australian Steve Irwin.

You will have fun with that gun and it will certainly speed up your builds. Just don’t have your fingers anywhere near where the pin is going and do where eye protection.

It is crazy how this hobby can take over your life but it is fun.
