The part of the forum where the silliest things happen. Conversations that sound like they belong here, will be moved here. Maybe.

We ate at the restaurant at the hotel. We ordered the Pecan Beer that the waiter recommended...Pecan Beer....Beer made with Pecans...It was FANTASTIC

So a while back we decided to go down to one car. We sold Rita’s and kept mine thinking it’s younger, lower miles, and more economical.

Yeah… late this afternoon the transmission let go.

I'd rather you win by finding out that it costs $8.97 to fix your car.

Modern Fortran (a contradiction in terms) with object-oriented capabilities isn't so bad. I was working with stuff that was effectively '77, but now I'm working with a newer version of the same program that is fully modular. MUCH better. At least until I can convince Biff to re-write a million lines of code in Julia, this will do.
I am not as cool as JimVH. Nor or you. Well, unless you ARE JimVH.

Repairs are more than the car is worth. Looks like I’m car shopping.

Saw a bald eagle yesterday morning. It's not rare, but it's not common either. It was a good day.
