    I don't know. Cookie Core is pretty good but if I want vanilla HäagenDazs (no wonder I spelt it wrong first time) is pretty much my go to (if there is a good sale). The supermarket own brand is also pretty good because they do a clone version that tastes pretty much the same but with a more yellow colour with vanilla dots in it.

    The Cherry Garcia flavor is the best! (I however don't think The Grateful Dead are great)

    Its been pretty bad here. The poor car got a tile to the face, left a dent and took the paint off down to bare metal >.<

    Its the only tile that fell too by the looks of it.

    Yeah, it is very bad. Came out today to find The Cube with the garage roof on it. (Garage roof is corrugated plastic, so no damage done luckily).

    We were at our summer cottage last summer when we last had strong winds. Suddendly we hear a loud slam noise and went outside to see that half of our roof metal panels peeled off. Not really a big of a deal because it had the old felt under it and we just dragged the metal panels back and put them back on with screws this time. But if we would've not been there then, the wind would've prolly just torn all the panels off from that side.

    No serious damage to report up here, just really windy... Rhonda the Honda is locked away nice and cozy in my shed, just hope the big tree's in our neighbors backyard don't fall into ours...

    I can tell you've been listening to the radioaltimeter callouts Airbus uses on their aircraft. In fact, when the radioaltimeter says "Retard, Retard", it simply means to retard the throttles (reduce engine power), and it does not necessarily mean the plane's calling you a retard.

    This is a copy-paste from the other forum that I frequent, It's just too good not to share.



    "I get sales calls on my cell phone. Unlike most folk, I don't mind most of them. If I'm busy, I just hang up. But if I have a few minutes, I usually have some fun with them.
    I once ordered an aftermarket part for a girlfriend's car, and have been getting calls to get aftermarket warranty insurance for that car for several years now.
    Never mind that I have never owned a car like that, and she sold hers about 6 years ago.
    Normally I hang up on those, but one afternoon, stuck in traffic, I pressed 1. Got a salesman, started asking questions.
    Let him run his spiel, asked more questions. Kept the poor guy on the phone for almost a half hour!

    When he finally started getting pushy about getting me signed up, I told him I was not interested. When he demanded to know why, I told him that among other reasons, was the fact that I did not own a car like that and never had.
    When he wanted to know why I kept him on the phone so long, I told him that his company kept calling me and wasting my time, so I decided to waste theirs for a while.

    He actually got so mad, he started cursing me! Swore his company would never call again. They actually did not for almost 6 months.

    This is leading up to what happened today:
    Sitting around without much going on. Phone rings, its a recorded sales call. One I have never gotten before.
    Its an addiction help clinic of some kind. " If I am addicted to drugs, alcohol, or other substances, press 1"


    I hung up.


    Its a sad day. I never thought I would get this old and chickensh*t.

    Can you imagine what I could have done with that??

    Just think of the things I could have confessed to be addicted to..........

    Masturbation, sniffing urinal cakes, small dogs. Nothing kinky with them, just addicted to small dogs. The smaller the better.
    I've got over 40 just walking around the house.........

    Women's left nipples. Not the right, can't stand the right, but OH the leftys..........

    Penis sculptures. Especially malformed ones. ( Got that one from the British show "Couplings". If you have not seen it, I highly recommend it. Brilliant show. Off the air now, maybe Netflix or someone has it.)

    Anyway, you get the idea. I wonder if I was not so old as worried about what I might come up with........

    Who knows, maybe they will call back. I'm starting to get my courage back......"
