    Despite their woeful allegiances, I am pleased both Dwight and Wally have returned. A return by Hostile would also be welcomed.

        My oldest is a senior this year and, I’m afraid, getting her into BYU would take a miracle at this point.
        Dude, flaunting your weirs in public? Well, I guess that's par for the course in Vegas. How low Ute fans have stooped.

Now that our respective teams are officially back in the same sport conference again, it feels appropriate to pop in and see how everyone is doing. Still hanging out in Vegas. Still in the water biz. Still a big Utah fan until my oldest is miraculously accepted into BYU next year, then I might have to put my drum and feather on the sacrificial alter. Anyway, glad to see that the site is still as active as it is. I will try and not be such a stranger. Jake and I took a commemorative photo for proof.
            That guy is always suggesting Thunder Down Under for lunch, glad he found someone to go.
            Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                  Civil engineers have great words and phrases to use in professional settings. I once read on a railroad bridge drawing from the mid 20th century "tack weld nuts after erection". Just yesterday I wrote an opinion in an email that ended with something along the lines of "when two nuts are placed on a shaft, the shaft is not torqued twice. Rather the portion of the shaft between the bolt head and one nut is torqued with the first application, and the portion of the shaft between the nuts is torqued with the second application."

                    LOL

                    Software/IT folks used to have great words and phrases until the wokies came into power.

                    You can’t make jokes about big dongles or say “I’d fork his repo” without getting fired: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...-ddos-attacks/

                    And that was over a decade ago. Now you can’t even use the word “whitelist” and “blacklist” anymore. “Master and slave drive” is also verboten, as is “master branch”.
