somewhere around Matagorda a week or so ago. He went on and on about all the redheads
we have a place on matagorda peninsula (across the bay from port O’Connor); when the redheads are there you can swat them with a tennis racket. But that’s all we ever get, no good ducks
they just opened a few cages to let the heat die down
allowing Oklahoma into the SEC was a mistake

It’s crazy, even the used ones online are going for over $500. Maybe it is what it is.
what are you expecting to pay? :LOL:

The extended tiller for my new mercury was 1500 bucks new

5/4 boards are not suitable for horizontal use unless anchored at least every 24” (16” is preferred). They will absolutely twist and cup.

for a horizontal use full 2x lumber (1.5” nominal) is the way to go. I would not consider those slat frames in the OP as a good choice unless using redwood which would be ridiculously expensive

I don’t plan to become a babysitter and will administer the tough love they aren’t getting now
that is the definition of being a babysitter. One thing to keep in mind is that you always have the right (before you agree to anything) to decline an inheritance or appointment as executor. That sounds harsh but did you really want to sign up to manage your two brothers’ affairs? Without an end date?

Have you discussed this with just you and your mother?

sounds like the razzies got it right then. If you’re a fan and you liked it then great, but you can’t honestly be surprised that it got negative reviews

was it made to lose money, get savaged by the critics and earn razzie nominations? Because that’s what happened :LOL:

it leaks at the seams
I know OP said rock/pop bassists but there’s something about a female upright bassist that I love. Here’s Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway with the very talented and beautiful Shelby Means on bass

they do, I have one and for a light rain it’s fine. In a heavy rainstorm I get wet, every time. Last time I trusted it was out at jazz fest a couple years ago and I won’t do that again…the jacket itself gets soaked

breathable/lightweight/dry is available but not cheap. Honestly I spent a good deal of money on a pullover raincoat from Swazi and it’s my favorite piece of hiking gear. It’s the only rain shell I’ve owned that actually keeps you dry in a heavy rain.

don’t even look at the website though if budget is an issue, they are ridiculously expensive
