It has been a while, glad to hear from you and that things seem to be going well even if they are busy.

Hi people! I've no idea of how long it's been since I last posted anything here, so it's probably about time to post an update and let you guys know I'm alive.

YAY!!... ...

Awesome news!...Just watch yourself in that there Africa...The news is never happy when it comes from that direction, these days... ...


Very nice to see you though!...

LISTEN !!

I will make a statement!!


I HAVE NOT changed my post count!!! I do NOT know HOW to do that SOOOO!

And I do NOT lock threads.....

[mirocu]

I´m off on Saturday to look on some small excavators

What do you mean, I´ve gone on about them?

Anyway.... It´ll probably be either one of the below. The first is very slightly bigger than the other but the other has expandable tracks. We´ll see which one I get..!

Bigger

Smaller with expandable tracks

@minque - But then how did you suddenly get 98676 posts??

Official information: Moderators cannot modify post counts at all. It is impossible.

Rather, I am very proud to announce that Chorrol.com™ now sports a feature that transforms actual post counts into felt post counts. This new and innovative high technology feature allows us to more accurately display post counts than in the past when we used negative value quantum interpositioning technology to quantify post counts.

Thank you and have a good day.

And here I was thinking we'd actually got Alteration magic to work.

I'm leaving later today on a six day pilgrimage to visit Acadian Sr. He's heading into his ninety third summer, and I try to visit him each spring and fall.

I'll be off line the entire time, but look forward to catching up on the wonderful stories and threads that I follow when I get back.

[Grits]

I hope you have a lovely trip, Acadian!

Summer just hit us today, 90 degrees in Grits world. We have a couple of deer who live in our little back yard. The boy one was sprawled out in the grass this afternoon. At first glance he did not look alive, but then I saw he had his head barely up. Later he scared the crap out of me by strolling right past the window. Deer are BIG.

There’s also a new baby back there. Yesterday we had a sudden downpour and it came to the edge of the woods to look out at the rain and then jump around a little.

[mirocu]

Have a nice trip and an even better stay with Acadian sr!

@Grits - I don´t know if I think deer are that big, but they sure are heavy to carry out of the woods even with their guts out of the way

Saw a buck today btw when I was out driving

Edit: No, I didn´t see a dollar...

Buck Rodgers?... ...


Good luck with the trip Acadian!!... ...93!!...Fair dues... ...


Gritseh!...90 degrees...Urgh... ...



Long story short...The silage is taking longer than usual, due to size of crop and weather issues...It seems to be far harder work than usual...Which is worrying, somewhat...However, the sheer volume of what's left to get in the sheds may likely mean we only need to do one more round of silage in six weeks time, as opposed to the more usual two lots, the second being around six weeks after the one I previously mention-ed-ahhh...


Hope all is well with you all... ...

[mirocu]

I HAVE JUST BOUGHT AN EXCAVATOR!!

Pixies one, two and three


It´s due to arrive next Saturday!

[ImperialSnob]

Beautiful

[King Coin]

D'awww it's a cute little thing. What are you going to name it?

[McBadgere]

Well, given those letters on the bottom there, I'd call it Eric...Eric Claptout or something... ...

Very nice...It's good to want things...Most people go for books or CDs or DVDs though...Y'know?...But, each to their own and all that... ...

I´ve usually gone for games but this time I wanted something that wouldn´t look good in a collection...

WHAT? hehe....I admit I'm not a mathematician but i have studied science...now THIS beats me....

[Kiln]

My guess?

He means that your posts are inherently important and that rather than quantifying your post count with the actual number, that your post count has been converted to a number beyond the reach of people looking to supplant your awesome posting power by means of sheer post count.

Really though, I have no idea.

Lots of love for Minque though, her and Treydog are the main reasons that I came to this site. Respect for long time members like Black Hand and of course the Admins around here too.

As Stargelman noted, mods actually don't have much power over administrative actions. This is why when people hit me with account related requests all I can do is forward it to one of the guys in charge.

[Grits]

Congrats on Diggy, mirocu! He’s adorable. May you move many piles of dirt together.

I’m stilling chuckling over Felt Post Counts. He blinded me with science!

It was a wild week in Grits world but now I’m on the other side of it. Although there is one critical issue to resolve. Last night while I was relaxing (finally!) on the porch with an appropriate beverage, a hawk swooped down and murdered our resident chipmunk right before my eyes. That’s not the problem, he was just doing what hawks do. BUT in my surprise and subsequent surprised juggling of glass and napkin I failed to identify him. It was not a red-tail and it was not one of the red-shouldered hawks from across the street. My best guess is a Cooper’s hawk, but he could have been a sharpie. He had a long tail. Argh! This is still bugging me.
