Land surveyors here have big inches.
A 12 inch foot is broken down into 1/10's and 1/100's of a foot. Semi metric measure.
One time a contractor was explaining to his son, "Surveyors use big inches."

Whoah...is that called "almost metric"?

Due to the cold and wet weather predicted for Halloween night, many communities are putting off trick or treating until Friday night.
Friday night we will be at a grandson's wedding, hope our outhouse doesn't get tipped over because we're not here to hand out candy.

They are calling for snow at night Thursday and Friday up this way. It has begun.

Welcome back. (at least to the only thread that is important.
Have you been keeping up with the reading?
You may have missed some really important stuff.
Some people have been really informative, Racer not so much.

On second thoughts, how do we know that is you?
How do we know that Racer is not just using your account?
How do we really know that you even exist?

Are you saying he might work for NASA?

Hi Mark

In that case maybe a cape is all you need

It would go well with the Lycra tights he wears while riding, eh?

But the added drag of a cape might slow him down.

Then again, the added drag would require more effort on his part to move the bike forward, consuming more calories.

A win for Mark in the form of improved health.

Mark needs this

Wish I had been wearing one of those when I missed the last step at son's house last Christmas Eve.
Spending the night in the ER waiting to get your head checked out is not fun.

Jelly Belly has, or had, a vomit flavored jelly bean, along with some other gross flavors.
