It sits on a tv stand shelf, which doesn't have a backing. It is in a corner right next to a window which is usually giving a nice breeze off the lake. The box has never felt abnormally hot or smelled of burning plastic.

Where do I find a SA 2015 rated helmet? The sooner the better, track day is coming up, and I don't want to leave this to the last minute. Tho it's starting to feel like it given the number things I need to do to my car and it's not ready.

^ you can order them directly from Simpson online, be sure to get them to ship with USPS though.

Motorcycle shops have some that are SA rated

Hi Chew from Japan, so much gooder.

What the fuck is it with dudes and their leaf blowers? I have yet to see someone actually use it properly. All they do is kick up dust and debris, including small pebbles and wreak havoc on cars parked or driving by. This one asian dumbass was clearing his driveway and pushing all the crap onto the road. Then, right now at the Superstore parking lot, this dude in a truck owned by a landscaping company goes from one island to the next, just bowing the dust around. He does this briefly and then takes off. The idea of a leaf blower is to help make a pile. Then you pick up the piles of leaves or dirt. Am I right? Am I missing something? I have a leaf blower that vacuums leaves and mulches it. So much gooder. Is there like a fucking leaf blower course out there that people can sign up for? This is right up there with people shoveling snow onto the road that’s been cleared. /rant

The only use for a leaf blower that I can see is loosening up the ones that are stuck in gravel or some other debris you don't want to risk sucking up with the vac. Otherwise they're completely worthless (just use the vac) unless you're a jerk who wants to dump their mess onto someone else.

Thanks, I ended up buying from a race shop in WA called Highline Performance. I drove down there so I can test fit, paid $50 over Amazon, but at least I got a good fit down and it came with great customer service. Still cheaper than local tho.
I drove around WA for about 3 hours, only to find out that each model/brand has different sizing. For future reference, Cycle Barn - the motorcycle gear store does not carry SA rated helmets. And try to buy earlier than May or go on a weekday, because around this time and by weekend, most places would have ran out of stock.

Wow, I finally decided to make this. Had it in the pantry for months. So simple to make. Next time, I'm gonna mix some Kirkland canned chicken breast in it. I think the Tikka Masala was on sale at Costco in Bellingham and I just purchased it on a whim. https://well.ca/products/tasty-bite-...SABEgKa7_D_BwE
Just the right spiciness for me. Old man can't take the spice no more........... not like younger days when eating jalapeños was, "no sweat."

do we have a meal prep thread?
wondering if there's any interest in one for us to share recipes, etc.
i'm having a hard time staying focused.
would be a mix of meat, vegetarian and vegan recipes.
i always say i'm gonna do it but i find it overwhelming to plan them and i just never do it.
i want to get serious about it because i spent almost 4 bills on dining out in the past 2 months and I want to kill myself for it (figuratively) lol.

Usually I stop off and waste 20 minutes at save on foods to go shopping for dinner ingredients when I'm on my way home from work. I can't commit to buying a weeks worth of groceries when my mind changes 10 times a day about what I want to eat for dinner.
Save on foods has the drive through lane with the little intercom thing there to pick up an online order. Has anyone ever used it and have opinions on it?
seems a lot easier to just select what I want and pick it up already waiting for me after work..
Reviews? Worth it?
