Re: Random thoughts thread
Looks like this is the year of the Cicadas up here and they should be emerging any time now. These things are Interesting because they only come out of the ground around every 17 years. I was fairly young the last time they were here, but I remember them leaving their exoskeletons everywhere and being noisy (similar to a cricket). It was almost as bad as the Mayflies that I posted about not too long ago. Here`s a link for anyone interested in more specifics (such as Ray).

And this is what we get to look forward to cleaning up.

That`s actually pretty interesting.
108 decibels is crazy loud for an insect.

Wow very cool! You`re making me want to pick an episode of Planet Earth to watch tonight :)
Have you ever thought about frying a few of them? ;)

But I`m with Ron, I`ll stick with meat.
Re: Random thoughts thread
So I told myself I was done buying things I didn`t need anything else because I have so much stuff I`m never going to use all of it at least. I look at it like trial and error. I tried something, maybe liked to try something else and maybe liked it more. you know how that goes.
So I was just getting my plan for the next half of the week off deciding what I wanted to do and realized besides the box with the Nano in it I have two other boxes coming from autopia and one from poorboys.
And I find myself debating what i will spend the next jobs money on ordering. Lol
All i can think to myself
Hi my name is Brandt and I have a problem. Ha ha ha
Oh and as i typed that a box arrived as i just got home myself. And i honestly forgot what was in it for a moment. Lol

My friends ask me why i don`t want to go to 6th street (Austin downtown) and I say because I`d rather buy $50 in car care products.
to me, its just the smarter option. I think i spend at least 50% of the money i make detailing on buying new products to try or more of what i know i like, like gallons of pb stuff (s &r, s&w, s&g, bs, glass)
Re: Random thoughts thread
You`re telling me I can get a gallon of spray and gloss or a round of shots at the bar?
hmmm

I was using my Master Blaster Sidekick and thought I haven`t seen a single thread of anything this company makes fail. I`m guessing a lot of people own Sidekicks and some - Master Blasters (me, both)... But nothing this company makes seems to break.
