So last night I am working at my side job, re-doing a series of multi-level decks for some people.....I am walking across open 2X10 joists on the walkout part of the deck, about 8' up, with a large piece of composite decking, and lost my balance. Luckily for me the owner had set a piece of plywood across a couple joists so he could water his flowers, and I managed to step onto that instead of stepping between the joists and really ******* myself up.
Tomorrow evening I am going to get a couple sheets of dunnage plywood here at the yard and set them across the joists so that doesn't happen again. Last thing I need is a bunch of RTT'ers showing up at my funeral to add to the eulogy.

Just contributing to the great Iowa/Minnesota debate (I'm technically a native Sconnie, so Belgium....)
We would be there to claim your stuff.Last thing I need is a bunch of RTT'ers showing up at my funeral to add to the eulogy.
ADORBS!Someone 'shopped my favorite spider Lucas and made him even more better with cardinal & gold dreds!
I always forget Gold beach (just had to look it up again.) For some reason, Omaha, Utah, Juno, and Sword are seared into my memory.Trivia question on MLB baseball game of the week tonight. Not sports related. Name the five beaches of the Normandy Invasion. I got only four.
I'm a bit of a WWII nerd.
That song has become popular again for some reason.The Toto reference gets you extra brownie points. @cyclones500 would be proud of you.
We had a get-together this past weekend with the families of DD's softball teammates/friends. Late in the evening, I could hear the sounds of "Africa" drifting down from the room they were camped out in.
Don't know if you're a movie buff, but have you ever seen "A Midnight Clear"?
I am a bit of a cinephile, but I must confess that I haven't seen that one. The most recent WWII movie I've seen was Battle for Sevastapol, which I absolutely loved.
I'll see about finding a way to watch the movie you suggested.
Mine listen to 80’s anyway, but it was also in The Goldbergs which we watch together.
Jerry Springer is on his way to Minnesota...

Hmm! I've never seen The Goldbergs before. I'll have to see what that's all about.
I did see "Africa" in an end-credits scene on Community once also. Troy and Abed were on a couch with Betty White singing the song. It was a little bizarre.
Quick, Erik, University of Maryland has a new opening right in your wheelhouse.
Yeah, I know, too soon. But do keep an eye open...
Think a sitcom Wonder Years set in the 80's. The actual main writer/narrator has all these home videos he made as a kid and most episodes are based off of his real life experiences. It was something the older two and I enjoyed watching together on DVD, now you can catch episodes on Nick in the morning.
The Goldbergs is pretty hilarious. As a child of the 80s I relate to a lot of it.

Well, sorta. They'll look for someone, probably distinguished already, who focuses more on African-American history.
Sadly, being from Iowa State doesn't do wonders for a school like Maryland. They'll go get an Ivy Leaguer or someone from a top-tier state program. Berlin went to Wisconsin. That's the kind of top-tier state program they'll look for.
We'll just show up for the wake for the free food.So last night I am working at my side job, re-doing a series of multi-level decks for some people.....I am walking across open 2X10 joists on the walkout part of the deck, about 8' up, with a large piece of composite decking, and lost my balance.

I call dibs on the whiskey.
I gave you a "like" for using "dibs", which I have not used or heard for a long time. I'm going to have to look up the etymology for that.
