Do you prefer the Inkosi over the Sebbie 31 as well, (like WIC)?

My mom would serve them when we were kids. I think they were just canned ones. We were allowed to keep a list of three vegetables we didn't have to eat, and beets was #1. If it wasn't on the list, you were eating it, but you could change the list afterwards to apply in the future. As an adult I have grown them and prepared them properly and am still a bit meh but can tolerate them. My wife loves them though.

And no disrespect, but that isn't what they turn red

Wow. A truck stop. So now you have to watch out for piss bottles, syringes, and dead lot lizards on your fields. Not to mention idling diesels all day and night.

You better overbid by at least 30% otherwise you’ll lose this once in a lifetime opportunity.

It was the wrong one.

Well, at least it's clean in there for when the right one comes, and I got some yummy Indian food.

On the upside, you have another excuse to drive to the big city and pick up food you don’t normally get. Calculate your gas consumption and time then ask for a discount due to their mix up. I think 15% is reasonable to ask.

I had a sweet never summer snowboard. Inadvertently left it in a friends (his parents’) garage after coming back from a day trip. He claims someone stole it out of his garage. In a gated community with his house down a private lane - yeah. Uh huh. Lost my Hutch bmx bike the same way a a few years earlier in middle school.

Lol. I forget what food it was, but that would put hair on my chest if I ate it too. Always a story about something.  They used a pow-wow doctor when she was growing up, so she might have believed some of that stuff!

I was looking for a  F95 and stumbled upon this.  Had no idea what it was but I thought it looked great.  I see lots of F95s but rarely this ( although Arizona Custom Knives has one for $1800 right now) so I bought it instead.  I'm very glad I did.  It is beautifully made and finished.  The blade absolutely flies out...even for a Shiro.

It has been interesting hearing what stands out and what doesn’t. Nothing sounds bad, but some definitely sound better. Jazz, blues, some rock sound better. I thought Lana Del Rey would be great, it was just OK. It was also the first album I played so I will need to revisit that one now that the speakers are run in. Like I said, Metallica sounded great, bit of a surprise.

I love the White Stripes. Jack is a musical genius, but when left to his own devices kinda wanders around out there. I do not like the stuff he's done without Meg. Not as bluesy.

Specs say 3.35" but it feels bigger than that, I would have guessed 3.5" if I hadn't checked. I like it very much. As always with these guys, it feels amazing in the hand, and it looks very cool IMO.

I don’t recall your question.

The 2020 year mix is good. And it has that covid era nostalgia.
https://shop.armadamusic.com/collections/music/products/a-state-of-trance-year-mix-2020-mixed-by-armin-van-buuren-vinyl

Feel again is also excellent. I’d probably recommend feel again over the 2020 year mix. But both are good. The year mix is more what you’d hear in a mixed set whereas feel again is full tracks.

Agreed on all points. But it’s terotuff not micarta. I wouldn’t buy terotuff again. It feels like g10 and I like the micarta feel better.
