It adds a certain ambiance of horrifying smells to go with nothing to look at but corn, beans, and the grain tower in the next town 15 miles away. The place is extremely cheap to live in though. I'm considering buying my neighbor's house because i want their free standing garage. It will cost me 15 grand...and that includes a pretty decent 2 bedroom house. It's small, but I might just fill in the basement and turn it into another garage if I don't feel like renting it out. If you really want to own a house and don't mind the smell of poo poo a few months out of the year, middle America can hook you up cheap!

Packages started showing up. DJDaddo stopped by and said not to burn the place down, again. Larry hooked it up with an Alien II bike tool and some odds and ends, seriously if you guys ride and you dont have or know of the Alien loving get one.. Also licorice! Then there was a package with towels and a 0* sleeping bag (aHAH HAH HAH HAH HAH) that Im sure will come in handy. Some day, maybe. And then a snack pack and galaxy S5 courtesy a rad as gently caress goon who put it on unlimited everything for me so expect to see more live video in the FB group when things actually start to move. Now if youll excuse me, theres holes in my body I have yet to insert cigarettes into. I posted this a dozen times last year but Ive been bumping it to get back into the mood. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YtGaba6rR4

Or it's the lens curvature, but I'm not really sure which at that elevation. Restored prairie is really cool. Do not challenge the bison.

For people that need to drive things to places and who do it all day every day, couriers sure are bad at driving things to places. I once sent a package from Melbourne, Australia, to Lubumbashi, DRC. It went Melbourne - Singapore - Hamburg - London - Liepzig - Cairo - Johannesburg - Lubumbashi. loving box of sample cards had a nicer European vacation than I've ever had. And I had sent a similar package the week before that went Melbourne - Singapore - Jo'burg. Same company once sent $40k worth of blank samples for instrument calibration to Lima, Ohio, when it was supposed to go to Lima, Peru. Then they just destroyed them when they didn't know what to do with them. We stopped using them after that. I'd say "guess the company" but that level of rank incompetence could honestly be any of the big ones. Deteriorata posted:That's why it's not showing up until Monday. They don't send a truck from North Platte to Valentine for one package. Well that's a bit different. I stand behind my earlier courier-bashing though, they generally deserve it.

Packages have to go through sort, for good reason. If you want point-to-point delivery without going to sort, you need a courier.

That's how real delivery companies do it. Thats why you are likely to get it, rather than Greyhound's nonsense. The distribution centre might still catch fire tho when Dick's package arrives, stay tuned. me if the distribution centre does catches fire.

If it wasn't for the horrific bug stories I'd say it looks peaceful and relaxing there. Nice place to camp minus the flesh eating flies.

DICK DICER posted:*me wearing led headlamp* I AM THE MOTH LORD, COME TO ME MY SERVANTS Speaking of bugs, I think you arrived in the midwest a bit too late last season for these motherfuckers . The flies are awful, obviously, but the insidious flower bug feels like tiny acid burns when they bite. The urban legend I learned when I was playing football and they ate us alive was they were "peeing acid on you." It's just a bite, but it is sure out sized. They are generally active this time of year from like 4 p.m. until dusk at least where I am. I hope for your sake they're not too bad in Valentine like they are where I am in Iowa. They're absolutely enraging, but they're only around for a couple weeks where they bite people. I forget they exist every year until I get bit. I'm very, very, very happy you have that tent, 14". I hope you never have to deal with those little assholes. e: A little more literature that talks more about their habits and bite https://hortnews.extension.iastate.edu/insidious-flower-and-minute-pirate-bugs They are the bane of my existence this time of year.
