No way, those are my favorite. Get em at walmart the big bag cost less then the little bag from a liquor store. Fancy ass chips are confused, In my area they don't even keep them with the other chips. They're usually by the corn nuts trying to fit in, acting like it's not a bag of chips.

they did sell just those little bread slices in a bag for a while...i love them, but i'm allergic to gluten....so i haven't looked for them in a while, they're good, but not worth three days of misery
I think a lot of people are allergic to gluten and don't know it because the symptoms vary so much.
Too much gluten makes my lower back hurt like hell.
And my farts are epic... :shock:

it was crazy here after the fire...and i didn't lose my house. driving around was bad...seeing houses i knew the owners of burned to the ground....it just kept that night in mind. then there were the vultures driving around taking pictures...they'd stop and ask me where to go to take "good pictures"....after telling a few of them to crawl up their own asses i just started walking away from them....go the fuck home, you goddamn misery parasites..
it took about year to start feeling normal again. when greenery starts to grow again, it helps cover a lot of it up, and people have started to rebuild, but there are still areas i try to stay out of...just don't want the reminder
There will be no hiding from the hurricane damage here. It's everywhere. Five years from now it will still be visible. We have had waves of volunteers and contractors coming into our communities. Both are needed. I need a new roof, but prices are more than double now. I'm hoping to half ass it for 3-4 years so prices will be closer to normal.

Speaking of half ass, yesterday I got on the back roof and worked on tightening screws.

I have two buddies who are contractors. One of which is my main smoking buddy. He has been going to get out to the house "next week" for the last 8 weeks, so I looked over the roof from the back deck, and decided it was alright to wait for "one more week". But he hurt his shoulder and will be laid up for 6 weeks (if he listens to his doctor}. That news got the wife to the point she was going to get real roofers to replace the roof for $30K. So I got my ass up the ladder yesterday. I did find one little hole that I hadn't seen from the ground. I used duct tape to patch it.

Tragedy narrowly averted.

There wasn't many higher up the slope backed out. And they all snugged down good. But lots of them along the bottom didn't tighten down. I'll have to buy longer screws and see if that will do it. This was mostly a wife calming move. We plan on hiring someone to replace all the screws.

I run all my screws through the ridge so if a screw does come loose there's less of a chance for leaking.

I've done roofs like that too. In this case, I'm glad my contractor did it like he did. With 130 mph winds, I'm afraid if there had been any give to individual pieces of metal, they would have been gone. As it was, all I lost was the end caps and fascia.

I passed personal legislation to tax all drug deals 10% last January.

Then I hid the money and forgot where I put it. When something turns up missing here, my go to method of recovery is to get as fucked up as I was when I hid it.

So I ate enough RSO to kill a small farm animal and found what I was looking for an hour later.

Christmas is saved again.

It's actually a fishing lighter with space for a couple grand. The kids will be happy for another Christmas.

I like to use lexel on roofs , it works so much better/longer than silicone on asphalt.
Also I'm sure you already know but I thought I would mention that the expected life span of the neoprene washer is about 11 years. When I'm selling someone a metal roof I always try and make sure they understand the life span of the metal, the color, and the washer and that it might not be as long as they might think. But also if installed properly they'll be good.
Also was it Michael that got you and if so...... I'm glad you survived. A helluva storm.... I came down to work Ivan, Opel, and others from PC-Mobile.

I completed my 12th-grade exams in pretty much the same fashion.

I attempted similar personal legislation, but it got hung up in committee.

I do want to know - did the small farm animal live?
