I left a job one late afternoon when I was still working for an employer with a trailer hauling a big 4x9 ft. pallet that the package unit I Installed came on back to the shop. The route was hwy 29 south Concord, 601 hwy just a little past afternoon rush hour traffic and discovered the pallet was missing. That was a long scary drive back tracking to where it flew off the trailer. I am convinced I have guardian angels watching over me 24/7. Every load I haul that day never fails to make me strap everything down to the point the vehicle could rollover and it still stays put

One of my 1st days as a manager when I was in Raleigh. I helped a driver load up a 20ft piece of 8in steel pipe to run it out for a deliver. He hopped in the truck and started to take off and I stopped him and asked him if he wasn't going to strap it down. He had poles in to hold it against the side rails and was confident it wasn't going anywhere, I was new so I didn't question it. Less than 5 minutes later I am driving a forklift down Yonkers Rd to go pick up the pipe and put it back on his truck.

I would really like to try one. May have to try the brine and marinate. Don't have any duck fat. Oh well.

"The chicken is brined in a salt bath, marinated in buttermilk curry for five days, then double-fried, splashed in spiced duck fat and served with two types of house-made mayonnaise."

Fried chicken sandwich with claw intact sends social media into a food frenzy

Claude the Claw is the biggest hit on Broadway. The signature fried chicken sandwich from Times Square takeout spot Birdbox still has a claw attached and has inspired a social media frenzy.

I would try that but that foot would freak my wife out. We got halved cooked chicken somewhere one time with a takeout plate dinner and hers still had a small feather on the wing tip. It was over at that point she wouldn't even eat mine after trading plates. She has gotten better though over the years from opening the freezer and seeing some creature in a bag with fur or feet sticking out but the whole claw on a cooked sandwich wouldn't work

I was scrolling through the website from another state's DNR that I am hunting in this fall, and I came across this statement:
Hunting regulations for 2024 are now available on the hunting pages of the DNR website. The current version of the regulations booklet and deer permit area map also are available for download. Regulations translated into Hmong, Karen, Somali and Spanish will be available later this fall.

Since when do entitled white women get the regulations book translated into their own language?

There it is. I have wondered most of my life why all these older uptight white women were so hard to figure out, they got their own language

I think I've said recently that I wasn't getting a new gun any time soon, and I think someone called me a liar. Well, they was right. I got a USP in .40 and by golly is it a sweet weapon.

Back on the mainland and on my way to Smithfield to spend the night there. Planning to leave early to get to the NCTA Convention and attend some morning demos. So excited to be going! Haven't been in a few years or so.

Stopped to get supper in a nice, revitalizing little city. Then on to Smithfield.

Had a good laugh today, and think I saw one of the ladies at the hotel blush, and @Helium knows how hard that is to make happen.
There were 3 ladies at the counter talking about whatever, pretty sure it was baking.
As I walked by I heard them and one of them mentioned using white chocolate.
I turned around and asked "what did you just call me?"
All three of them bust out laughing and still chuckled an hour or two later when I came back in lol

Made it to the AirBnB I'm spending the night at, but there's no one here. The host is at a concert, said someone would be here to greet me, I rang the doorbell, and no one answered. The doorbell keeps making tweety bird whistles at me if I stand near it. Called the host, no answer, left a message.

Now it's starting to rain.

Sigh.

Just another reason to not do the room thing.

I genuinely don't trust people and the last thing I need is to wake up in a bathtub of ice missing a kidney

That would seem really nice for a loner like me but I'm always packing heat. Kinda has a creepy factor like the beginning of a horror flick so keep your head on a swivel, be safe

Finally got in to the AirBnB. Big communication fiasco. Will explain in the morning. Hitting the sack now. Good night, y'all.

I apologize for being pessimistic worst case scenario thinking person that I can be,don't let my ramblings put bad thoughts in your head. It would be a good idea if you stay in places like b&b or private residences often to carry a simple pie shaped or triangular piece of wood to put against your door. Most rooms have the door open to the inside and a simple scrap of wood wedged against it makes it nearly impossible to open from the outside

Lol. A few years ago I was doing some work in a nursing home. It was around Halloween and the old gal working in reception had a tacky “ugly sweater” with a jack o lantern and black cat on it. I’d say she was in her 70s. I was on a ladder right next to her desk and another staff member showed up For work. She said “oh, I love your sweater” and the old gal said without missing a beat “yeah everyone just loves my black pussy”

Couldn't help myself. Bid on and won 6 raccoon stretchers at the NCTA Convention auction. I'm happy that the money goes to a state trapping organization that I'm proud to be a part of.

Now I'm getting crazy out-of-state trapping adventure ideas for my 5 days off in November (not at Thanksgiving time). The struggle is real. 😂
