I’m looking for nautical maps, in pdf or another usable format, but it looks like they’ve been phased out in favor of migraines. For example, I can’t find any sign of a map at:
I’m also getting buzzed by a helicopter.
P.S. Found enough to answer my questions here:
Ug. I agreed to help a fellow teacher brush up her English writing skills. (Not certain exactly what for, I think she’s trying to get into graduate level studies of some sort.) It’s mostly grammatically correct, but so clunky…
My wife’s brother lives with us. No matter how often I try to impress upon him that if it snows at night, if he got up a half hour early and cleared at least the space for his wheels so it didn’t get compressed down…
Oh and then messing up my good snow shovel using it to scrape up the compacted bits. Use the grain bin shovel on those parts. I can take the grinder to the edge of that shovel and smooth it out again. The snow shovel? Well, what’s another $30 bucks.
After last year’s ice storms, I bought an ice breaker. I tried to use it to break up the compacted stuff, but then learned it worked much better as a driveway version of a windshield ice scraper. Saved me a lot of time and hassle, that trick did.
I do have a couple of floor scrapers from when I renovated houses…never thought of using those and they look similar to what I’m seeing
Seems like overkill. (Example is the Gaydamak, built as an icebreaker, and converted to a gunboat during the 1st World War.)
To be clear, this is what I’m talking about:
You deal with snow your way, I’ll deal with it my way
I absolutely hate it when people drive/walk on the snow and pack it down while I’m trying to shovel/salt/clear it. Their little moment of impatience makes it so much more difficult and time-consuming, and the packed ice makes a hazard. If you’re too lazy to clear it yourself at least be patient while someone else does.
I have a metal shovel for ice-scraping around here somewhere, but I don’t know where it is now. 
The plastic shovels suck - if you kick the kicking edges to get under the ice, they just break.
I picked up a pdf of an old gaming magazine, Jagdpanther #3, with “MGB”.
The site noted that it was missing the maps to the included games. They didn’t note that it was missing the rules and scenarios too.
They also didn’t note the original club name, before Task Force Games took over:
“JAGDPANTHER is the publication of the SS JagdPanther Korps Wargame Club,and of the INTERNATIONAL CONFEDERATION OF WARGAMERS,” and I’m hoping that was “We’re a strong club, so we’ll name ourselves after strong forces” without thinking about the implications rather than “Why doesn’t Wolfenstein let me play the good guys?” alt-reichfuckery.
I momentarily misunderstood that. I would just like to mention that, were I a billionaire, I would absolutely have a nuclear powered ice breaker. If only so that I could go from St. Petersburg to San Francisco over the Pole.
My SO likes the occasional soak in a tub and so I had gotten a variety of bath bombs for her this holiday season.
Who the HELL thought adding glitter to a bath bomb was a good idea.
Right now trolls and known shit stirrers acting like victims at the other place is grinding my gears:
I’m home sick with allergies, on NYE; I wonder what’s their fucking excuse for having no lives to speak of.
We’ll save you a drink, maybe an entire bottle. Allergies can be the worst with timing. On the upside: no jockeying with traffic.
TBH, I don’t really try to go out on New Year’s anymore anyway; it’s too expensive and too many people decide they need to act a fucking fool to ‘celebrate.’
Glitter < no glitter, but glitter > rose petals.
Holy shit, is that 8* goon still shit-stirring over there? He must be banned from everywhere else.
Yep, and two members of this forum are over there, encouraging him.
Welcome to my world.

Who thought adding glitter to anything was a good idea? It gets all over everything. I wonder how much gets lodged in our lungs. If I get a holiday card with glitter on it, I try to get it back into the envelope as quickly as possible after reading it. Maybe it’s just my OCD, but:
