Seeing better this morning than I was last night (1/2 able to see the keyboard on my laptop). The haze is down to 15-20% of last night, so another day or so of that to look forward to :rolleyes: I *WAS* able to see well enough to read at his office today, then got more numbing drops put in to ease t...

What a way to spent the xmas season... Home for the holidays to get my cataracts taken care of. Left eye was done this afternoon, and I can 1/2 see with it... Red haze on everything that should be gone in the morning, but enough that I'm not watching a movie today. Followup in 7.5hrs according to my...

Just picked up a pair of Dakota at Mark's on friday... Quad comfort, puncure & ESD, with external kick plate on the toe...

Not quite as comfy as my combat boots but still not bad for 14hrs straight

only my niece to spoil, and despite having a multitool for her last year, she's not quite ready for a good knife (still in the stage of misplacing anything that's not securely fastened to her). Have both a TV-B-Gone and a gift card for Coles in my luggage for her, have to pick up a couple more thing...

Where would the thumbhole be? :p Try that too many times and you won't have thumbs to worry about ;) The mayan long count goes on for a LONG time after this supposed end of the world... this is the 13th B'ak'tun in a 19 count, and there are 4 more higher orders. I've got my bush toy, but I do have ...

Just figured I've give a quick update in case anyone's looking for me. I've actually got a job that keeps me busy all day dealing with issues, beats the **** out of my last few jobs where I stare at the clock all day. Today for example I looked at it twice... when I grabbed my lunch and to check how...

Ah, the beauty of multi-quote, lot easier than doing this all manually... I agree with you on the winders. I bought one and it stunk, literally. It had a funny smell and ended up putting a haze on the glass of one of my watches. It was noisy and didn't spin enough times/hour to keep the watch runnin...

So to celebrate this new job, I went out and picked up a new Titanium Citizen EcoDrive. Of course that means that my Invicta will sit at home when it's on rotation. The fact that the invicta is a kinetic automatic wasn't a problem for the last year, since it was the primary watch on rotation despite...

until I get my network up and running here, I'm surfing with a telus stick on my 7" eeepc... not the best thing for chat.

Hopefully get it all up and running in the next little bit here, ideally it's just a quick mod to my surfing tower and making some custom cables for my server rack.

Hit a minor glitch in my online status (besides barely having the energy to think after work the last few days as I get fed data for 8hrs straight).... the wifi I found was a poor connection and taking ton long to do anything on it (and the browser on yhe blackberry sucks for forums :p ). Just back ...

Oh,had that one before took a few hours to rewrite the windows and thats that. The one I got: Dear client The parcel was sent to your home address. And it will arrive within 3 business days. More information and the tracking number are attached in document below. Thank you for your attention. UPS G...

So 11hrs on the road to get here, $400 worth of gas in the two trucks and supper for the moving crew. I'm 1/2 unpacked (still don't have my server rack cabled in, my books and dvd's out, or my surfing tower online yet... right now found a decent open network to use for a couple days until I get all ...

ss police, rig by vadim grynko (vess leather)

The Gerber EAB (exchange a blade). I'm willing to bet i'm not the only one who owns one of these little gems. I carried it for the longest time at my job and loved it, and i still carry it now and then just for cutting chores where i wouldn't wanna dull or risk damaging my Spydie. I've had a couple...

Dunno where you're getting gas, but all the ones I hit still have the latches.

Well, that's not bad... ~2hrs and 4 phone calls yesterday to get arrangements made for an apartment, and ~30min today so far... approvals and paperwork should be done Monday and ready for me to sign my life away when I get there Friday. Of course this means I have to be all packed and ready to haul ...

the question becomes how to do this...

Went through security twice 2 months ago, dressed for an interview. While they commented on the steel shanks in my dress shoes, they didn't say anything about the inova x5 in my briefcase or steel pens in my jacket. Like anything else, perception is key. The further you can fade into the background ...

Problem with AA in a camera is, the camera companies don't like to make them anymore. I waited for approximately a year for Canon to make a point and shoot that ran off of AA batteries AND took high def video. They never made it! My kodak runs off AA's :p The DX3500 I bought way back in '02 was gre...

theshaveden, straighrazorplace, and badgerandblade are all great forums for using traditional shaving equipment. Found them myself back in march. I spend time on B&B a lot. There are a number of manufacturers that fetch a price easily comparable to high end knives, and lots of quality ones in th...
