      Niagara Falls

      My wife and I are planning an anniversary trip and we've never been to Niagara Falls before. For those who have stayed in the area, would you recommend staying on the American or Canadian side?

      What are you Reading?

      I never know if audiobooks or e-books should be included. I just finished (listened) to Sackett's Land by Louis L'Amour. I got Elsewhere by Dean Koontz from the library for the Mrs. and the book jacket convinced me to read it myself. Good stuff, first paper book I've read in a while. Koontz...

      What are you Reading?

      I remember reading my first Jack Reacher book and he referred to leaving his car in the "car park." (Wait a second....) I just started The Terminal List. Even after having seen the Amazon series, I haven't had a book pull me in this much for a while.

      What are you Reading?

      Do audiobooks count? Most of my reading is done electronically these days. I just finished listening to The Deerslayer by James Fenimore Cooper. I'm halfway through The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler. And I'm plodding trough Confessions by Augustine of Hippo on the kindle. That last one is taking...

      Cocktails

      While on vacation with the wife, I had a Tom Collins and was hooked immediately. Then I got home and remembered I'm pre-diabetic i.e. fat, so I started looking for a zero-carb solution. Over ice, I mix a shot of gin, 6oz of zero sugar lemonade and 3oz of Sprite Zero. I call it a Skinny Tom...

      TV Theme Songs

      I always liked the drums at the beginning.

      TV Theme Songs

      Having gotten slightly into classical music as I've gotten older, I appreciate this theme even more.

      Just Curious - What streaming service(s) do you pay for and why?

      We've had Netflix forever. Too many series to list: Peaky Blinders, Witcher Ditto HBO from back before it was streaming. True Blood, Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones (eventually) I've been pretty pig headed about adding more since it gets unsustainable pretty quickly. We got Prime...

      Motorcycle Riders?

      It’s alive! Fuel replaced (including injector cleaner), battery replaced, oil changed.

      Motorcycle Riders?

      Pics will be forthcoming, if I can figure out how to post them! The bike is a 2007 Suzuki C50. Shaft drive so I was figuring on replacing that oil as well. In a perfect world I would trust the tires enough to ride it to a dealership and tell them to do the work. But the dealership closed, the...

      Motorcycle Riders?

      I could probably cross post this in the First World Problems thread. Right at three years ago, the wife and I decided to stop renting and buy our own place. Since I'm such a smart guy, I decided to move the motorcycle first when we moved, and boxes got kind of piled around it. Which means its...

      Are you loyal to a single brand or do you collect everything?

      I ventured out when I first started having a knife for edc. A Benchmade here, a couple of Kershaws, including an auto. But I work in an office and don't have any heavy cutting needs so I mostly stick with Case grampa knives now.

      "Pride" month is upon us...

      I have a question. Maybe it’s a dumb one legally speaking. Let’s say I go to work and I’m telling off-color jokes or talking loudly with a co-worker about NSFW material. I may not be propositioning anyone directly but that would still get me in hot water with HR. So if an employer pressures an...

      Name an album with nothing but great songs on it.

      Kind of a greatest hits

      Extraterrestrial life

      I think the question should be refined a bit. Are we talking about extraterrestrial life or extraterrestrial intelligence? Whether sentient life exist outside of Earth is far more provocative question than alien bacteria four billion years ago, but maybe that's just me. A comment was made...

      Reacher

      I'm 6'4" I have to shorten my stride when I'm walking with my wife or I get yelled at for going too fast.

      Post your favorite Christmas song

      "December 25 was arrived at because it was exactly nine months after March 25, when the Annunciation was being celebrated, which is the feast of Christ’s conception in the womb of the Virgin Mary. Christmas on December 25 isn’t a claim that Jesus was born on that day or even an attempt to claim...

      What are you Reading?

      I read and loved Dune as a teenager. It wasn't until I thought back on it as an adult that I recognized the Marxist themes.

      Post your favorite Christmas song

      I'm too dumb/lazy to put in links. As mentioned above, I like the Pentatonix version of Mary, Did You Know Darius Rucker's version of Hark, The Herald Angels Sing Holley Maher doing It Came Upon a Midnight Clear I swore off pagan Christmas carols a few years ago.
