    Did ya see that the firefighter killer also had a Bushmaster 223 with a flash suppressor? If only we had a law that would prevent him from owning that scary piece of military grade weaponry.

    You know, prevent a guy convicted of manslaughter after killing his grandmother with a hammer. Manslaughter, a felony, right? Hmm, if only we had a law…

    So far it has cost me more to run the store today than we have made.

    I had to pay the computer guy to run down here and replace a wire.

    My spaghetti was sticking out from under the cabinet. I tripped on it and took a hard fall while ripping the wires out of the harness. So I needed him to come give me a new thingamabob for the computer. Knees are killing me.

    Don’t need a new one of those, yet though.

  57. Comment by Tushar on December 26, 2012 11:10 am

    Jay, I might be buying one, not because I want it, but because the model and size I want comes with 3D. If you are going to buy 3D, buy the one that needs active 3D glasses. The ones with passive glasses are listed as an example in the dictionary under SUCK.

  58. Comment by Jay in Ames on December 26, 2012 11:13 am

    I’m hearing the opposite. To the casual viewer (read: the one not looking to spend $2k on a TV) passive should be enough. It’s the same that they use in theaters (Real 3D).

  59. Comment by daveintexas on December 26, 2012 11:13 am

    I’m sorry you tripped and fell down Laura. As a naturally clumsy person who is banned from climbing on backhoes, I am sympathetic to your plight.

  60. Comment by lauraw on December 26, 2012 11:14 am

    Livestock restrictions in my town are pretty tough.

    Enclosures must be:
    100 feet from the street line.
    25 feet from side property
    50 feet from rear property line
    100 feet from a reservoir, pond, or watercourse

    Manure has to be buried in a nuclear-blast-proof bunker several miles below ground in solid bedrock and must be removed weekly and no one can smell it or see it or know that it might be there.

    Jay, Anaglyph (red and blue) passive are fine. Polarized passive are sucky. I would prefer blindness over polarized passive 3D.

  66. Comment by leoncaruthers on December 26, 2012 11:24 am

    Laura, you’ll want to check, but chicken droppings should be ready fairly soon after production for garden incorporation. Horse manure takes a lot longer. If you really want the droppings for gardening, you’ll likely want a box-type perch where most of the poo will fall in. Separating it from bedding material is not worth the time.

    I’ll see if I can find a picture of what I’m referring to, basically a box with perch boards over it so the poo is kept segregated from bedding and turf.

  67. Comment by Tushar on December 26, 2012 11:25 am

    With polarized passive, you lose the 3D effect if you move your head a bit. Also the 3D effect is limited to a very narrow area directly in front of TV. Every one else sees some distorted crap.

  69. Comment by Jay in Ames on December 26, 2012 11:28 am

    yes, it’s limited viewing area, but I don’t think it disappears if you move your head a bit. Passive 3D has been around since the 50s, and is used in Real 3D movies today.

    Also, the resolution is down from active. But since my wife gets headaches so easily, and migraines, I wonder what the active shutter will do to that. Don’t have to worry about that with passive.

    So my USPS package is finally here after 9 days. I had to go to the PO to get it. Seems they tried to deliver it at 8:15 Sat. (to my fucking business.) They only make one delivery attempt, then you have to go pick it up.

    Did I mention they didn’t leave a notice?

  73. Comment by leoncaruthers on December 26, 2012 11:44 am

    3D is a stupid gimmick. Resist we much.

  74. Comment by Hotspur on December 26, 2012 11:45 am

    Did I mention it took them 20 minutes to find it at the PO?

  75. Comment by Hotspur on December 26, 2012 11:46 am

    Did I mention that a UPS package sent the same day as the USPS package was here two days later?

    I have plans evolving in my head for a homemade railgun that launches headless, threaded nails on the theory that the threading will provide rotational stability in flight.

    That or or could just launch smooth brads, but I know Brad, and he’s not smooth, so it seems less likely to work.

    In todays America, there is no incentive for men to marry, have kids and be responsible for raising them. I would advice any young man to get sterilized and have flings as much as he wants, without ever seriously committing himself to any relationship. By sterilizing he is not losing anything that will be valuable to him or valued by society.

    I agree. There is no incentive to marry. I got married because that was what I was taught, and it was a commitment to someone to provide for them to the best of my ability. Taxes didn’t come into it, it was just the right thing to do.

    Now that isn’t true. Live together, share the responsibility until something else comes along. It’s the smart move, if you can live with that on your conscience.

    132, perfect. and the drippings were delicious too.

    Is there any difference between Top Round and Bottom Round?
    Growing up they were interchangeable for Sunday dinner with Yorkshire pudding. They were mostly gray ashes that gravy tried to resuscitate.

    Perhaps smoking would have been better

  291. Comment by scott on December 26, 2012 10:17 pm

    I have been searing at the end, and throwing it into a cooler for an hour or more. I have been pulling it at about 135, going to try 130 next time.

  295. Comment by leoncaruthers on December 26, 2012 10:20 pm

    Top round is usually a lot leaner and better for jerky, generally makes better roasts. Bottom round is more flavorful and marbled, and is better for braises and crock-pot dishes.

    In my experience.

  296. Comment by Jay in Ames on December 26, 2012 10:20 pm

    Top round is up higher on the cow, with less connective tissue, IIRC.

    And yes, smoking would have saved Sunday dinner. Yorkshire pudding from those roasts would have been great.

  297. Comment by Jay in Ames on December 26, 2012 10:21 pm

    What leon said.

  298. Comment by scott on December 26, 2012 10:23 pm

    Yes. Top round you pull at about 130 for great roast beef, bottom round you pull at about 200 for something close to brisket.

    In a crock pot, they might be really close.

  299. Comment by leoncaruthers on December 26, 2012 10:25 pm

    More connective tissue => longer cooking is usually better.

    Witness the brisket, which can be pan-fried into something your dog won’t eat, but can be braised, smoked, or BBQ’d into something that makes Baby Jesus smile.

  300. Comment by leoncaruthers on December 26, 2012 10:26 pm

    Top round is okay in a crock pot, but bottom round is better, and usually cheaper.

Nick Nolte did not win BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR, and the guy from “The Artistist” won which supports my feeling that every Academy member is a gay asshole. Nick Nolte was absolutely F’ing Tastic….one of the best performances I’ve ever seen.

    I don’t know, Pupster. If it is under 6 inches total, you may want to shovel in one go. But anything more than that, and multiple passes might be easier.

    There are people who come in a LOT.

    It takes Mrs. Pupster about 45-60 minutes to get teenaged boys out the door to do something they don’t want to do. I was watching weather underground’s radar map, saw a break in the snow coming, and timed it appropriately.

    Wet, heavy snow on top of frozen rain. Fun, fun.

    This year’s mugshots are not very impressive. Don’t expect too many avatards to come out if these.

    Wife and I shoveled 4″ of snow out of our driveway and off of our deck, then another 2″ fell overnight.

    I had ice in my beard.
