I have jumped from dozens of aircraft, they are declared as cargo planes so the safety standards are much less stringent than passenger planes. Four days after my 13'th jump the same plane I was on crashed, killing among others, the first and last persons I had jumped with and the cute girl bartender from our little "bombshelter" bar. After that taking off was the most terrifying part of jumping, let me out i'm now in charge of my destiny not the plane or pilot. I ended up doing 350 jumps.

Now listen up mother fuckers, if you waited until now to try and get a hotel anywhere near the path of totality for the eclipse, you are shit out of luck. All the hotels/motels and inns have been booked out for that week. Hell most of the campgrounds in new England are opening early, just for the eclipse and most of them are booked out, too.
That is all

I don't think this is common knowledge or maybe it's only me that hasn't heard of this.

I'm not close to any of those locations. Seeing an eclipse is a big deal to some people.

I plan on it. I also plan on having a bonfire the night before, with some of my friends coming over and camping out. I think I'm in the 90 th or 95 th percent totality. Clang should be fairly close to total as well.

So you're saying I should crash your bonfire?

I haven't any motivation today. I don't like feeling like this. I need to plan to be lazy so I can enjoy it.

I was planning a relaxing time to myself next Saturday night and then someone asked if I wanted to join them for a show and I said yes too quickly. Id rather a quiet evening at home. ( I will be in town for the long weekend)

Did you see the Sydney fireworks Crash?
Hey I met the PM in 2023! and heaps of other people.
Did you have a fallout with User? Or did you have the hots for her and now you miss her?
Not in person. I watched them on TV, in bed, with the freeloader that stays here from time to time.
I’m sorry you had to meet Albo, it must have been terribly underwhelming.
I don’t think we ever had a falling in to fall out
I knew you were a right wing schmuck!

Well this isn't trivial or boring but I didn't want to spend time looking for the random thread.
I dumped a whole countertop with the computer and other equipment today. I was careless when re-arranging and everything just slid off with the standing desk and on to the floor. There are soft mats on the floor and nothing broke. So fucking glad. I was shaking so bad. I didn't know how I was going to explain a broken monitor when there was no earthquake.

My internet went out today and I don't have jack shit when that happens. I got a text from the provider saying it would be down until 12:30 AM on the 27th. I'm so fricken happy to have it back so soon that I could kiss somebody's ass.

You wanna come over this way? I think it's like a 7 hour car trip for you.
