Reports are now large inventory of ammonium nitrate. Used in fertilizer. Was the same material used in OK City bombing?

From Reuters - JUST IN: Lebanon's internal security chief tells reporters the blast was in a port area with highly explosive material, not explosives Hmm - I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express, but wouldn't highly explosive material be considered "explosives"?

Absence of Malice

He did write a book - "Walking with the Wind: A Memoir of the Movement". I'm reading it now.

Don't throw them away either. They need to be given to the proper agencies for tracing.

Not sure how true this is for Columbus. Apartments and condos are being built downtown like they are going out of style. 2-3 years ago I was considering the move to downtown. Now, you can't touch a condo / townhouse downtown. Prices went out of the roof.

2 of the farmers markets that I frequent are still in operation. Both outdoors and have ample spacing between vendors. Customers and vendors must wear masks. One market limits the number of people in the shopping area. There must have been a line about 100 people deep waiting to get in. I turned around, went to my alternate market and got the stuff I wanted.

Been to Brickyard 500 once and that was enough, Indy500 for about 12-15 times. Track is too big - not enough passing for NASCAR. Comes down to pit / fuel / tire strategy. Find a smaller track to watch. Agree on up high so that you can see things. And, big agree on earplugs. What's fun sometimes is getting the radio headsets and listening to the driver / crew manager talk.

I send thank you cards to all of my Pelotonia donors. It’s not hard.

That was too funny. Way to go Bruce!!!

I've throughly, and I mean throughly, cleaned the house. Top to bottom, stem to stern. I've purged through some old documents and travel brouchures. I went through my closets and dresser and got donated old clothes / shoes. I set up a nice routine working from home and extended my yoga practice. I've been getting up early each morning and work to meet my Pelotonia goal. I do wish I had picked up a book or tv series. But, I enjoy sitting outside and watch it get dark / quiet with a nice beverage.

I'll continue my subscription to the Columbus Dispatch, but I question it every time I pay the bill. Same rationale as Gungy. The merged the printing Ops into Indiana with some other papers and the timing is off by a day.

Hard pass

Godspeed Charlie.

That is the time of the year that the grill, fresh veg, and salads of different sorts are for. I'm not home all day (well - now I am), the only thing this time of the year out of a can is baked beans, and I hardly get delivery.

Crockpot is mostly used during the fall / winter months in this house. Soups, chili, stew, and the like.

Friend scored this place in TN. Looked pretty decent - https://abnb.me/aBa6brJRo7

After 10 years at previous company with only 2 weeks, finally got some bank of vacation (4 weeks) with current employer after 1 year. Go figure. Was planning on taking 2 extended road trips (one to the UP and the other to Mt Rushmore). Got a couple things in play. I'm taking half day Fridays to either kick back or get yard / house work done before the weekend. Currently signed up for the Memorial t'ment in July (press center). Reserved a couple of days in October in Chicago with GF. Parents cancelled summer Germany trip - now driving up from FL to spend the month of August in Buffalo. CBUS will be a layover point. I'll take some time with them then.

Recently got into this Irish whiskey - Teeling Aged in rum cask - OMG!!

Cant find the actress name, but the mom in this Febreze commercial https://ispot.tv/a/AOe5

Guy who ran the corporate kitchen where I used to work said to run the dishwasher on rinse, wait for the water to settle, and then put the dough in there to proof. Never did it so I can't vouch for it.
