    I might go smelting on the North Shore (northern Minnesota).
    There for a second I thought you were talking about metallurgy, but context clues led me to learn of a fish called smelt.

    Skyrim is my extent of that kind of smelting. But yes, smelt are small little fish that you net. As a kid my mom would fry up smelt at least once a year.

    But Mr Brooks is decent.

    You think he went from MN to the Argentina's coast, in the middle of a pandemic, to get shrimp for NYs??
    Well, I always did picture Scar as one of the more hardcore members on this forum. The kind that don't jerk around when it comes to Shrimp.

    I had a few 50 dollar visa cards, so I bought the D&D essentials kit and 5e Players Handbook. Now I'm super excited to spin up some epic tales with the fambly.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    I can't remember the last time I used a 3/4 or 1/2 so I decided to buy for the rest of my life.

    Installing canless LED recessed lighting throughout the house, 3 per room minimum, so I'd say that's about 50 3/8s out of the 100 already.

    Stripped the carpet out of the bedroom above my office, removing some of the plywood to access the office ceiling, and running wire down to the 3-way switchs in the office. Need to get this done by Monday.

    I've been working from home since March, so I made some personal tech upgrades for the long haul regardless of how things with COVID go.
    A 2019 Macbook Pro 13"- refurb from Woot. They sent me one first that was a lemon but quickly dispatched a replacement unit when I contacted them. I desperately needed a boost from my 2014 Macbook Air (great machine, but my eyes are old and pixel count wasn't cutting it). I also got a 24" Acer display from my employer (couldn't resist for $50) after using an old NEC 19" 4:3 display most of the year that had a lower resolution than my Macbook Air.

    Pre-ordered this:



    It only costs 65 USD. Lol. Although it's a special edition with the ost included amongst other things. It's gonna look and sound amazing I'm sure. Blue Underground has been doing amazing work restoring older cult flicks like Zombie, Maniac, Amsterdamned.

    Contemplating buying these:

    I’d mount them near the ceiling as rears once the basement is finished.
