:lol:

How about ponies? Pretty docile, without inordinate predation or breeding habits.

I've lost track how many "debates" I am conducting on other threads. :eek:

Nice thing about a tandem is both of us are guaranteed at least one kudo on Strava. ;)

I just refrained from correcting "less spokes" to "fewer" on another thread. A little agita, but I think I'll be okay. I'll just lie down for a little while.

I assume you kenned his meaning.

My sister just texted me, stating "I'm Radioactive," so I replied:

"Not uptight, not unattractive"

First to guess the 1980's super-group wins special kudos.

My first thought was "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons but I don't remember "Not uptight, not unattractive" so I must not be right. :(

EDIT: Got it; Google helped me. I won't say it though.

Yes. Lead singer from Bad Company, lead guitarist from Led Zeppelin, drummer from Manfred Mann's Earth Band, and bass player from I don't know where.

There were lots of super groups in the 1980's.

Is the Addiction thread a super group?

Ugh, man... the salesman that we're dealing with on the solar panel project is an idiot. We had an engineering visit a couple of weeks ago, and we've been awaiting the results to know if we can fit additional panels, whether our electrical box is adequate or if it'll need to be replaced, etc. You know - all the due diligence you'd expect in order to nail down a system configuration and approximate cost. We were supposed to have that info more than a week ago.

Meanwhile, the salesman emailed me on Monday trying to close us on the original, back-of-the-bar-napkin proposal and didn't even know that the engineering visit had happened until I informed him that it had. We left it at "I'll check on all of that for you," on Monday. Today, after hearing from absolutely no one since the last exchange, I get an email starting with, "So I understand that you're ready to move forward with the proposal..." :twitchy:

And if you act right now, we'll give you another whole set! You just have to pay the separate "handling" fees!

Maybe a super thread?

Or more likely a stupid thread.

Reminds me, we used to go grocery shopping at "Super Fresh" which I really did not like, so I called it "Stupid Fresh."

Very mature, eh?

If he were as smart as an infomercial pitch man, I'd feel a lot better about the state of things. :(

You're going to Alabama? I'm sorry.

Solar energy is old and busted. Jump into the future with some coal stove hotness.

When Lowes opened in our town 30 some years ago, they had a system set up where the customer began the process inside the store, then went outside, then came back in again, and went back out to load and drive away. They were variously called Slows and Blows. By mature folk.
