I took one sip in 'Nam and have been chasing that water dragon ever since.

WTF, a pipe broke and the water use needs to be dialed down a bit to conserve a bit while it gets fixed. The F some people need charts and graphics to understand that? Use less water, it's that simple. Apparently there is an entire army of redneck keyboard engineers ready to go, so I guess we have them to keep us informed

Even more annoying is all the political nerds come out of the woodwork and once again we go on this stupid merry-go-round of left vs right, Gondek this Trudeau that, I can only imagine how r-word-ed some people get if they call a plumber to fix a leaking pipe. Are they standing over him ranting about politics? Christ.
Yes.

And for a Carpenter Christ was pretty adept with fluids.

I'll only accept a glass of tap-water at a restaurant if Gondek tastes it first at my table-side!

Thanks Gondek!

The powder I'm addicted to is actually water in it's least solid solid form.

And also liquid water...I drink like 6 litres a day and notice it if I go a while without drinking.

Somewhere in the deep SE the manager of an Earls just fell to his knees, screaming skyward.

If you call getting completely ####faced, random philandery, and late 1800's white person cosplay all at the same time as being normal.

Hey, do you have YouTube Premium? I can't post YouTube links using my premium account, either. I thought I was a moron and UCB made me feel like one as well.

If I open an incognito tab and use the YouTube link I get while not logged into premium it seems to work.

Just a thought.

From the story here:

https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/replaceme...airs-1.6932690

It sounds like 3 of the hot spots they had replacement parts and the two pieces that arrived today are for the remaining two hot spots. Considering the major pieces are here already, it is just he prep work on those pipes to get them ready to put in the ground. No idea how long that will take, but suddenly July 5th doesn't seem like such a stretch if everything is here.

They set it so you can't embed it. They want you to go to their Youtube channel to see it. Pretty lame.
