    Considering that paint of mine once had an $8000 vet bill, I can say that I'm in touch with that.

    Horses are cheap till you show em or call the vet. [Cue someone that hates horses or some lame horse meat joke now....]

    yup. Our current horse was free...ahh,then add in board, farrier, vet, truck/trailer. Not so much free. The only benefit is my wife can NEVER give me crap about the price of my bike stuff! $8,000??? colic surgery?

    Right on cue...
    If not for French restaurants, why would we even need horses?

    Bonus: I zinged the horse and the French in one shot!

    I grew-up with horses. Got pretty tired of them. Now, my loopy neighbor has horses. Many of them. She will go without food to keep her animals in food, and when she calls her horses in for the evening she says, " Ponyyyyyyys" with a high-pitch lilt in her voice. She drives people crazy but I hope she doesn't move:
    1. I'm afraid of what could move in.
    2. Based on #1 , she has a level of craziness I can (barely) live with.

    We had that moment of incomprehension between me (french) and my girlfriend (mexican) recently when I told her that when I see a horse I tend to imagine the sirloin or rib steak in my plate. She was eeeewwww but they have feeeeeling and I was like, yes so do do the cows and rabbits yet we eat them.

    Since March, I've bought a Schiit Magni 3+, a Schiit Modi 3, and a Schiit Aegir.

    So this:

    Teh best finish carpenters Circular Saw in the World, no comparison period. The Festool TS 55

    This is one of those rare tools that makes far more possible than any one tool should. There is a learning curve, however...

    I used to have one of these and with appropriate blades and guides, more can be done with this in less space than virtually any other single tool I have used. The guides make this as utilitarian as a table saw, and it still packs into the cute little box. If ever I was to become a professional carpenter again, I would build my entire tool kit around Festool equipment.

    Dang Chase you struck a nerve. I totally overlooked the Patagonia double "Stand up" shorts. These were the only shorts I ever owned that could stand up to the rigors of racing an Chesapeake Bay Log Canoe and looked good over my swim trunks when you go for a slice at the Boardwalk ;) Crazy good quality and the canvas looks better and better and better....

    I could wear these for 75% of my life and be happy.



    The other 25% would still be split between running shoes, cycling shoes, sandals, and slippers.
