14", you're the man, and if your route to Denver takes you through Albuquerque, there's a spare bedroom here (I haven't told my wife the full 14" tale so she'd probably be ok with it). We've got good beer, good food, and a reasonably entertaining minor league baseball team.

DICK DICER posted:Home until March I guess. Make this the year of Dick, ok? Stay there till March assuming it's not draining your finances (are they paying you, or just giving you a room?), maybe do the job in Maine after because that sounds awesome... nail those itchy feet to the floor if it'll keep you somewhere stable for a while. It's fun watching Dickventures but that $10k won't last super long without supplemental income (planned clothes and boot purchases sound likely to be on the higher side of $500) and I've seen from these threads how much you hate having to depend on goonerosity, so here's hoping all prospective and current jobs go well!

I've not had too much trouble with wind on my 2010 Bonneville, even on day-long and multiday trips. It came with a little Dart flyscreen which may be doing more than I realize, but otherwise that's it. I did have a 30 minute stretch on I-5 in California where the crosswind was so severe I had to put a pretty serious pitch on the bike, but otherwise it's not the wind that gets me, it's just tired legs and rear end. I tend to go around 80-85 on the freeway, though, which may be slower than some of you are used to (gently caress speeding tickets). The bike came with a steel luggage rack mounted behind the seat and that's been fantastic for motorcycle camping, plus it keeps my saddlebags a little further out from the side of the bike. Highly recommended if you get a bike that's suitable for one. There was also a Corbin seat on when I bought it, but I swapped back to the stock seat because I'm vain and think the stock seat looks better. The Corbin is a lot more comfortable, though, and now that I'm the ripe old age of 30 I'm considering putting it back. Sweet Christ, I just realized I bought that bike over 6 years ago.

Leperflesh posted:Rural Nevada is chock full of misfits and ne'er-do-wells living in trailers surrounded by sprawling acreage strewn with rusting projects, and has the added benefits of not getting blizzards (a dusting of snow in the winter is about it), being within a day's drive of California, and instead of cows the main employment is in the mining sector, which is equally awash in big steel contraptions what need welding on regularly. Eastern Washington, in the Columbia Basin Project area (a good-sized region centered around Moses Lake) has small towns, farm work, welding jobs, and not too much meth. Good Mexican food too. Personally, I'd probably choose to live in Ephrata and commute to a welding/mechanic job in Moses Lake, or else find work on one of the many farms in the region. A moderately-sized farm operation will have lots of equipment which means a lot of maintenance and repairs; repair jobs often starts with a 4-hour round trip to pick up the part you need, which gives you an opportunity to get off your feet, listen to some music, and absorb the scenery. When you're not fixing tractors, there's fences to build, water lines to set, etc. Consider cattle work, too, because that's more of a year-round job while farming can be pretty quiet in the winter depending on the farm; I think El Oro is the big operation in that region. It's about 3 hours to Seattle, a bit under 2 hours to Spokane, and only a bit more than an hour down to the Tri-Cities. If you're in Ephrata, though, and need to do some city shopping, Wenatchee is only an hour away and is quite pleasant. Wenatchee is renowned for its apples, but as I understand it an apple orchard tends to need a couple people year-round and then a shitload of temp workers for harvest, so there's probably not a ton of steady work in that.

Sold it for $700, the buyer brought a friend who later turned out to be a goon but I didn't know that at the time.

COOL DICK LUKE posted:Online kept telling me not accepting appointments at this time, the walk ins are not appointments they're idiot hell fuckers who just wanna pop in and grab a number real quick, i already checked online wait times and this location was the shortest wait time outside of loving Livermore, and I dont even see anybody behind the loving counter now to boot Livermore doesn't have a DMV, or at least they didn't when I lived there a couple years back. Pleasanton has one, and it's hell. I went a few times and even with an appointment it's a poo poo-show, assuming they have any appointments available--there were at least 2 occasions when I needed to register a new vehicle purchase, and you get 2 weeks to do that, and there weren't any appointments available for the next two weeks in Pleasanton. Tracy DMV was my go-to. Not that much longer of a drive than Pleasanton and they usually had appointments open. It's a relatively new building that's reasonably easy to get to from the freeway, and I don't think I ever spent longer than 20 minutes there from walking in the door to walking out.

Applebees Appetizer posted:It's pizza here in Florida. I have been here 25+ years and not one motherfucker can come up with an exceptional pizza joint. You know it's bad when you're settling for Papa John's....I mean their thin crust pizza is better than anything these local fucks can come up with, after spending lots of time in Boston and having amazing pizza I have come to the conclusion that it's just never going to happen because nothing is even close. I'm not trying to be that guy, but you can legit make drat good pizza at home. The key for me was getting my crust stretching right, specifically after watching this episode on my local PBS station: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thsbAOsbpek (the audio's all hosed up, but the important thing is the technique) There's a part 1 too that talks about preparing the dough, but I found forming it the hard part. Before I started doing it this way, my crusts were always really funky-shaped, overly puffy, overly chewy. Now they're fantastic, especially if I let the dough sit in the fridge overnight. Sauce: just drain a can of tomato chunks and blend it up.
