What do the [|] and [/] before and after kul and cool mean?

I call those mental health days.

I'm thinking about serving several cans of this instead of turkey for Thanksgiving.
Maybe one can per person?

I'll pass.

I don't like regular Spam.

Why would I want it to taste like my favorite pie?

Your topographical maps are great, we used them often back in my surveying days.

(picture a razzberry aimed your direction) Proof that this crowd can twist anything around! Of my 30 years federal service, 17 of them were with the Survey, 13 Air Force. It was all water-related database stuff though, not mapping.

I guess - but what's the definition of "sick"? My definition is that I'm not able to do my job in any meaningful way. Whether it's because of a flu or it's from exhaustion or lack of sleep isn't really relevant in my opinion.

Going to lunch in Washington today, Washington MO that is.
Meeting up with son, daughter, their spouses, and of course grandson Bobby.
Washington sits on the banks of the Missouri river, and is the corn cob pipe capital of the world.

If you say so...

But you see, Full Frame has magic properties that makes it vastly superior to all smaller formats - because it's bigger, you see. And at the same time it's better than all larger formats because, well, because it's smaller, you see.

Pure magic, you see.

So you need a K-1, plain and simple. It will change your life. Because it's magic.

It will even make rotted shark taste good.

Or so I've been told.

Or maybe that was copious amounts of Vikingfjord?

Cheers!
