I thought I mentioned that. I've been working at this hotel the next town over for a little more than a month now.
Is this the luxury golf resort?I thought I mentioned that. I've been working at this hotel the next town over for a little more than a month now.
I remember you having that as a lead, but I don't remember any definite news.I thought I mentioned that. I've been working at this hotel the next town over for a little more than a month now.
Afraid not. It was a hotel where the GM already knew me and my work. So he brought me in.
That's what I was guessing/remembering!

I don't think I'll ever make this into a thread, whatever fire put the idea in my head has gone out. But who knows, someday we may need to glue society back together with PAYST

Need the Primitive Technology guy to bootstrap us back up from nothing.
That guy is my meditation.
Sure, until he fumbles a grenade into the cook fire everyone's sitting around.[DOUBLEPOST=1507087168,1507086888][/DOUBLEPOST]I'd add J Neilson because he's a master blacksmith and bladesmith, he does a series of instructional videos and is one of the judges on Forged in Fire.
Part of me would suggest adding a bunch of cosplay models for... reasons... but that sort of just highlights the fact that the only reason any of them would spent time with the likes of me was because it was literally the end of the world and they had to. And that's depressing.
Seriously. Chains cause serious chafing injuries. Silk ribbons, now, that's what you bind a sex prisoner with.
At least according to things I've read.
Yeah really. Shows what your boss knows about you. You don't even have a basement. Pfft.

Exactly! I pointed this out.
Really, it's a safe bet to assume most anyone who lives in Texas won't have a basement. I had to put the sex dungeon over the garage!
Puts being "suspended with pay" into a whole new light.Exactly! I pointed this out.

The bonus is that the carbon monoxide leaks from the garage will keep her nice and compliant.Exactly! I pointed this out.

No basement, no pool.... Just what kind of exotic redhead shelter are you running there?Exactly! I pointed this out.

It's like the only rule from How to Care for Your Redhead he's following is "no direct sunlight". Tsk, tsk.

... The kind that doesn't have fungus, flooding, and cryptosporidium?
Besides, it isn't so much a "shelter" as it is a... "containment facility."
Lady, I got a dog crate with your name on it.

Whew! It is dry as a bone around here. My wife and I have both noticed our water consumption going up since moving, but even with the increased consumption it hasn't been enough. So last night I went humidity hunting. There's a Weather Underground weather station less than a block from our house (which is good, because it saves me having to buy one), so I checked the local humidity first - 10% - then checked the weather station nearest our old apartments - 46% - yeah... little bit of a difference.

While I was at wallgreens getting some meds and sundries, I spied this on the shelf (ironic that the website says NOT AVAILABLE IN STORES), and I figured, eh, 20 bucks? I'll give it a try. I have a wallet, and I have a phone charger battery, but to combine the two to one item would be handy.
Well, I flip through the manual leaflet, and hilariously, the "STORAGE" portion of the directions slips in "It is not recommended to carry the wallet in a pants pocket."
WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO CARRY IT, UP MY NOSE?
I'll just carry it in my pocket anyway, and if it blows up or something, I'll sue and retire
PS: Looks like I probably bought a lemon. Ah well.

Actually, it's more or less "we switched your camera's to B/W instead of color because that means our software has a better chance of detecting things in the dark - higher contrast. This because we failed to find a bunch of thieves a few months ago, as you probably remembered".
