only until mrs duck takes it over

I'm not sure she comes out to the shop unless he's desperate for help.

I know that I only ask if there is no other way.

How many pictures was that, @Ravioli Monster?

 

[Electric Chicken]

@Electric Chicken is gonna want me to send him blueprints now

Real humans are disgusting at those sizes. It would have to be AI only.

Same for 4K. Way too much detail.

i hope someday, he hot glues his balls to a project of his, and his wife has to use the garden sickle to remove him from his balls.

it took a year to hang a projector and a damm sheet

Every guy I know has multiple unfinished projects.

She helped me by holding the screen off the filthy floor while I climbed the ladder with the first corner.

And I kept the dog from jumping on it by locking his stupid ass outside.

I have more unstarted projects than unfinished ones.

Me too! I can dream up all sorts of things to do and have an excuse not to do every one of them.

Same. Only need the one excuse. It's universal.

I spent two years growing trees from seeds, and now they've outgrown their pots because I've been too lazy to find a place to plant them.

in the middle of the night, go over to your neighbors house, and plant them there.

Big screen needs big sound.

I just had a cheesy soundbar, so I went in the old barn and got my 12" speakers that I haven't touched since I put them there "temporarily" in 2003.

The speakers stayed mostly clean for 21 years because I left them facing each other, on a kitchen table and threw a rubber door mat across their tops. And the roof didn't leak there.



The receiver works too. It was really dusty but I blew it out.

The volume knob is scratchy. It sounds horrible except at about half volume.





So I said fuck it & went to Best Buy & got a $200 Yamaha amp. I can Bluetooth the music to it from my phone. And it sounds damn good.


Now I need to figure out how to put a loveseat 6 feet off the floor so I'm eye level with the center of the screen, which is 9 feet up.

I've got the seats removed from the minivan. The rear one is a 3 seater. Two adults with a little kid in the middle kinda thing. That oughta work. On some kind of tower type thing with wheels...

4 stacks of milk crates with plywood on top.

i ain't into that shit of sub-woofers, mid-range speakers, and so on and so forth.

when i had my Radio Shack AM/FM stereo, 8 track tape player and record player, that was all the stereo sound i needed.

i always wanted either a Marantz or AIWA stereo system, but being on the road, i'd never be able to listen to it...now, all i listen to these days is talk radio.

That's actually quite sad.

Thoughts and prayers... 'n' stuff.

Insert picture of nice scenery with inspirational words on it here.

I don't regret the decision for a millionth of a second.

I don't regret the decision for a millionth of a second.

I regret getting into trucking in the first place but it got me out of the warehouses.

I was pretty much a limp noodle with no direction until then, making zero progress in life.

Looking forward to getting out of it at some point, but really can't think of anything I would want to spend education money on to replace it with.

Feeling like I need to have my mortgage paid off before I'm comfortable switching to anything else.
