Wondering about visual acuity.

I just saw 4-6 skydivers over Arlington. More than one had an American flag hanging from them, like soldiers parachuting into an NFL game.

I looked at Google Earth when I got home, to see where in the hell they might be able to have landed, and drew a line from my observation spot by my house into the direction where I saw them. The only safe landing spot along that path was the Iwo Jima memorial, which is 3.19 miles away. I clearly saw the dark specks of a human being under the canopy of each parachute.

So the question is, can you see a person 3 miles away? Don't tell me about a candle at 1.5 miles, that's totally different.

2.44 miles away. They didn't land at Iwo Jima, but at the army base next to it.

I'm thinking my Booch is full on vinegar so I need to do a cleanout. Too bad cuz I got a nice growler with a chalkboard surface for Pappy's day.
Clodfobble • Jun 19, 2020 10:31 pm
I'm... trying to understand...

Your homemade beer has spoiled, which is a shame because you wanted to drink some in your new beer glass--that has a chalkboard surface??
Gravdigr • Jun 19, 2020 10:56 pm
I think that's the gist of it.
Griff • Jun 20, 2020 8:18 am
That's really close! Due to the heat my Kambucha turned to vinegar before I could bottle it. Lil G sent me a jug (growler) with a chalk accepting surface so I can write the ingredients on it.

Recipe: Kombucha Italian Salad Dressing

Ingredients:

1 cup kombucha (fermented to a vinegar taste)
1½ cups olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced fine
1½ Tbsp. minced onion
1 Tbsp. honey
1 Tbsp. dried oregano
½ tsp. dried basil
1½ Tbsp. fresh minced parsley
1 Tbsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. red pepper flakes

Instructions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a quart-sized jar. Cover and shake until everything is well combined.

2. The oil and kombucha vinegar will probably separate after it sits for some time, so give it a shake before pouring.

A stack of reference books makes an excellent foundation.

I finally decided this is real, and I should settle in. Bought a new desk chair after 6 months in the old shitty one left me all stiff and creaking with an ache in my knee.

A used Herman Miller Aeon classic.

JFC!!

$500 and no arms?!

I know you said used, but, dayum.
glatt • Oct 9, 2020 9:19 am
Yeah, it was pricey. If I didn't have to work, I could have shopped around locally during the work week to try to find a bargain in person.

I knew I wanted this particular chair, because I have had the same model at work for years and it just fits me. And a fucked up knee would be more expensive than a chair.

The big factor is my wife urged me to pull the trigger.

I often buy the cheap thing, and it works just fine. But often, the cheap thing, like my old chair, winds up being a total waste of money, and I have to go out and buy the expensive thing to replace the cheap thing I wasted my money on. I wish I could identify the cheap worthless things from the cheap and good enough things when I make the purchase.
Diaphone Jim • Oct 9, 2020 12:39 pm
Quality and value can be hard to spot and their connection to price even harder.
Clothing, furniture, vehicles and especially tools usually turn out to better bought trying to recognize when pricier means worth.
Two or three failed wrenches, e.g., cost a bunch more than one good one.
glatt • Oct 9, 2020 1:21 pm
yep, but that Harbor Freight $40 wet tile saw worked just fine for the bathroom I did, and I didn't need to buy the $300 tile saw.

You might think that a $50 chair is a simpler item and not as hard to screw up, but the $500 chair is the better deal. I fully expect to have this chair for the rest of my life, and that $50 chair is going out in the trash, even though it's in good shape.
lumberjim • Oct 9, 2020 1:29 pm
Tires, shoes helmets. buy the best. For tools, it depends on how much you'll use it. I still have the claw hammer I bought when I was 18. One new handle in 32 years. still smashes things. I also have a bench grinder that was $25 at a hardware store. I use it maybe once a year to sharpen mower blades....



You spend over 2000 hours in a chair a year. get a good one. Mattresses too.
