Benm

Been waiting for them to update, finally happened. https://kslresorts.com/our-properties/blue-mountain-resort/

i scaled my garden back a bit from last year. kind of let it go until a few days ago...

national discomfort. how far are you to Bensalem. can you tell if it's getting power or have you checked breakers?

no but send a photo of this bizarre a/c. i'm curious.

the vista lodge one? i've been watching it (or at least had been). it wasn't even close to being at risk of dropping.

wow, way more guests than i expected. stop starting fights in the pool.

We had actually debated going but decided against it. Figured it would be out of control. I'm curious -- how many people are usually day-passers as opposed to members?

ah ok i thought it was just a crazy coincidence. (i believe) first time this year that beltzville hit capacity was last weekend. will likely happen again this weekend if weather cooperates.

lol at 'molten zinc hot' near palmerton.

In effect until min Oct. Wedding keeps getting postponed.

my happy place

for as beat up as it looks, its done pretty well. this fella was standing/walking/laying on top of it for over 45sec, gnawing on the edge from the top. i almost wish he'd have fallen into the bin...

someone needs to tell these mf bears that wood aint cheap right now.

when i moved, my boss added half of the cost to my pay. so we essentially split that and the landline. cable isn't part of the deal. i'm sure if i asked her to foot the whole thing she would but that's not really fair since i'm using it for personal stuff too. she's a great boss.

@JFskiDan we have been debating removing the cable service. it was only recently that the ABC affiliate here became available for streaming, i think they might have been holding out. that channel (the news anyway) is the only thing i watch so i didnt really want to get rid of it. a couple months and i'll likely go to streaming. my wife is on board, i'm just lazy. @GrilledSteezeSandwich yes, mainly for work but i use it almost exclusively. if i tell someone to call me, i give them that number. if i'm away, it'll bounce to my cell anyway. voip sucks. i have never had a good experience with it.

yeah all three, maybe it's a normal price for super high speed + super channel lineup, but neither the cable nor the internet is anything spectacular. 150mb down / 10mb up, capped at 1.5TB (i've never had an issue with those speeds, though i wish the upload rate was higher). i love the landline more than i should. oh and if you have tivo, you've probably recently noticed what are called preroll ads when you are viewing dvr content. call your cable provider and demand that they remove them. they will definitely put up a fight, but they can remove them. there's no reason they should profit and you not get a discount. i got so irritated having to fast forward through them i called (hammered) and 'furious' that my young children were exposed to scantily dressed people twerking in the ads. they promptly removed them (the second time i called at least).

i'd kill for xfinity or fios. i always get a kick out of ppl complaining about the two, they really don't know how good they have it. i don't have anything obnoxious and my bill is around $260/mo. i'll echo jfdan tho and say that blue ridge has unreal customer service. i have called and someone came out within an hour or two on more than one occasion. i dont like that they drive up my god damned driveway unannounced though. they do it every quarter for testing or something. at least they respect my stop signs.

i'm not MVNO, but i've done prepaid for major carriers for almost 10 years. i'm on ATT prepaid now and it's $40/mo for everything. int'l phone off ebay unlocked for dirt cheap add a $99 square warranty, good to go. was in a contract with sprint before that and hated it. so i forced my phone to roam 100% of the time (with the help of a $3 app roam control). sprint sent me an airave (like a cell hotspot) thinking i was in a serious dead zone that i never unboxed. they likely figured it out and politely asked me to stop roaming when it continued. i didn't. they said i had a week or something to find a new carrier and they would waive contractual obligations.

well the bear box finally suffered its first L ...

There was a t-bar in 2017? I also used to work with Peter, good dude.

@JFskiDan I'm almost certain it was steel. On 115 near the racetrack they always have huge pieces of pipeline that look identical, these are just much smaller diameter. I also said the same thing to myself about toast and mowing...

i just watched a couple vids, those poles definitely weren't there last season. i can't remember if the banner about vista lodge was there either. also, dabbin on slow sign. what about it.

I mean it could mean nothing but new telephone poles and piping. Can't remember if the poles were there. Someone cross ref with Jeff's vid

I dunno, I'll have to check the class. Even then, I'm worried about a metronome / swaying effect.
