This is true: I went to see Winter’s Bone (no homo) last night at Brooklyn Heights Cinema and put way too much dill pickle seasoning, which I brought from home, on my popcorn. My taste buds are still in recovery.
How do the weapons tell who’s who? I thought that this Afgan operation was to root out Al Queda. It seems like it is hard enough for the CIA, Secret Ops, the State Department, the Army to figure out what the hell is going on there, figuring out who is who, who is friend, who is enemy, who we need to protect, who we need to root out. How do we delegate this to drones? This is a question, not a rant.
I used a bonding cement that you you can thin out to a few millimeters.
Another consideration is to wash the existing cement with a muriatic acid wash before proceeding. (careful, stuff is strong and you can see vapors when you open the container).
Lastly, they sometimes recommend a layer of bonding fluid which acts like superglue between the old cement and the new. I didn’t use it. My steps are still good after 6 years.
He’ll send another 30,000 troops to Afghanistan. I think we need to step up attacks using technology and not troops.
I agree, they need to start using the ultra high tech weapons like that secret EMP generator weapon based on Nikola Tesla’s theories. Supposedly it’s hidden in Alaska somewhere.
…if it exists.
Newsflash from the elegant, trust-funded, spoiled brownstone gentry front…..
Ceriello Electric came over today and did a little work for me — those guys are very professional and nice. Also, drove to a dumpy little hardware store on Franklin and St. Marks which caters to brownstone masons. I am repairing the cracks in my stoop, bought colored cement from a color chart and a bag of red sand to adjust the color. First you chisel out the loose bits near the cracks, then mix the sand and cement. Little hairline cracks got worse this past winter and I need to fix them. I am doing it with a neighborhood guy on the cheap so I really hope he knows what he is doing — saw some other stuff — so looks ok. Today my job is to clean out the basement a little (all those paint cans! all those pieces of wood! All those funky light fixtures I can seem to thow out….
I would be horrified to eat any egg product at McDonald’s. I really never considered their products food anyway. I always had the impression that the eggs were yellow sponge made from some ground up and dried yolk-like substance.
i’ve seen those. total marketing ploy. they are very very very very tiny. why dont they just make one that is the size of both and charge 3 bux? oh yeah cuz 3 bux would actually be too much for that crap. so they make people think they are getting a deal, when in fact they aren’t. they trick hogs.
there is nothing cheap at mcdonalds for what you get. blech. they do make good iced coffess tho

donatella,
lol, I like your magazine style headlines.
I did a similar project a few years ago.
