I don't think anyone is going to be able to help with this. Have any of the Shivs landed yet?

I'm glad I'm old enough to remember a time when the internet didn't yet exist

We had ATT outage at 0100 hrs for less than an hr. Over 7000 still without power though. Freaky windstorm with gusts up to 80mph- linemen working hard through hurricane force wind and blizzard conditions now that snow started back up.

Where is this at?
I have an employee in Ohio that didn't call or show today. Wondering if this may be why

The internet has clearly demonstrated that it was not the access to information that was the problem.

It was better before. At least everybody was getting the same information from at least somewhat reasonable respectable journalists and we could at least have a discussion with the same facts. Now we can't even agree on the facts.

Although there is one fact I think we can all agree upon. People really have gotten stupider.

Flexibility is healthy. In theory, everyone should be far healthier with all the mental gymnastics that seem so popular nowadays 😅

Well, Trudeau is #1 on the list, but he'll finally be gone soon enough, which will take care of most of the issues up here. Otherwise, there's a lot to love about the great white north. :)

well. I agree and gotta ask...
When will Trudon't be gone and why?

Do you really think the next WEF darling they install will be any better?

When? Either the next election, or when his fellow party members have finally had enough of their sinking poll numbers and possibility of losing their own jobs. So anytime between now and November 2025. Sooner the better though...

I don't care much for the WEF, but I'm not looking to get into some sort of conspiracy theory convo here. But most likely the next PM will be Poilievre, which I'm ok with as he's a lot more closer to center than Trudeau, not 80+ years old, suffering from dementia, or a scrupulous/ classless and aspiring dictator.
 
My buddies do not take very good care of their knives. If you have a knife with a small amount of rust and some very minor pitting on the grip, how do you remove that?
I have a few methods I use, but was wondering if anyone knew of anything easier than what I do

I don't get fancy. I use the same method that I do when cleaning surface rust from guns - Rem Oil and #0000 steel wool. It doesn't do anything for more extensive pitting but it cleans off all the red stuff and removes anything that can be felt by touch.

I think my DEK3 got put away dirty awhile back. I can't recall if it was my fault or my son's but it is my problem regardless. It got some nice peppering on the swedge that I had to clean up - it's just added character now.

Does the previous pre-order list hold any weight with the upcoming pre-order or is it another free-for-all? I was close last time!

What about those of us that officially said we’d be in when you were gauging interest to decide if you’d even make the run in the first place, and then didn’t make it into that crazy pre-order? (One week… 🤣) And have been begging for another ever since?

(Yes, talking about myself here.)

ETA - Here’s the interest poll thread. It is a VERY interesting read now in hindsight, given some of the “not in” responses, then some of those same folks ordered 2 in the pre-order! 😆:rolleyes:

I like transparency. I was not "in" on the original preorder (therefore, not missing out) and had no plans to deviate. That said, the enthusiasm, including Nathan's for this project, is awfully compelling and I've been considering getting in on the second preorder (should it happen).

However, I will happily step aside to make way for the folks that did indeed miss out on the first one.
