Lammycat Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I don't know about "seal(-ing) an envelope" with my 'taint, but if you've got a better way to sort my tax papers out, I'm all ears. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RaspberryJam Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I feel like cabin fever has maybe taken hold with all of this taint talk. Funny story, we were playing a multi generational game of Cards Against Humanity at Christmas and my 14 year old son explained to my 60 some aunt what a "taint" and "queef" are. Maybe it's not so funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caliber66 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Woke up to this and had to make a place for the dog to pee. Now I am going to go see if my (cordless electric) snowblower can handle 24 inches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'm guessing no way. Is it light fluffy stuff? Or wet heavy hell? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RaspberryJam Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Today I out ran the blizzard to make sure I could get to Pittsburgh for Wilco on Monday.I'm glad you have your priorities straight. about a foot (snow, not taint) in the suburbs of Baltimore, pretty light, easily shoveled. Well, I'm making my kids shovel. Still coming down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'm guessing no way. Is it light fluffy stuff? Or wet heavy hell?Somewhere in between, and you're correct about the snow blower, although it was probably an average of 18-20" on the driveway, since we went out and took off the first five or six inches before bed last night. Both of my snow shovels now have broken handles, but I got most of the driveway done (it is now filling up with snow again). We had planned to pay some neighborhood guys to shovel what's left of the driveway and sidewalks once the snow stops for good, so it looks like we're at that point now regardless. Guess I'll just have to spend the afternoon drinking beer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Were you using a straight shafted shovel, or one with an ergonomic back-saving curve in it, like this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 It was the D handle on both of them. Both are older shovels and the plastic handles just gave out - so not the shaft, but the bit where you grasp it with the back hand. The snow wasn't particularly heavy, and I wasn't picking up very much of it at a time. One was a straight-handle, flatter-bladed one, and the other was like the one above, but with a more pronounced curve and a deeper scoop. The scoopier one still works well enough that I can keep the dog's landing area clear. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
