  1. So...this is kind of a weird question, but since Turner is a 501(c)3, is the cost of MCC tax deductible?
  2. I'd just like to remind folks that if you link hip dragging turns all the way down the hill, on perfect groom, in bluebird conditions, but you don't post about it in the rub-in thread, you're not having as much fun as you could be.
  3. ETF, good to see you; are you going to be at Schweitzer the full season?
  4. Trigger pulled on Lumber Liquidators flooring. The sample I got said "Country of origin: United States", which I assume means "made in the US". That makes me feel a little better about the likelihood of toxic off-gassing. Keenan, thanks for the Costco tip! I would have checked it out, but I didn't see your post until just now. Given the size of the room, it won't make much difference though.
  5. Ha! Pretty much, basically Atlantis here as far as humidity levels
  6. I'm looking to replace some old carpet in a small bedroom (approx 120 sq ft) with flooring, open to bamboo, engineered hardwood, or LVP. Given that Lumber Liquidators shipped a bunch of flooring with toxic levels of formaldehyde 4-5 years ago, what are your thoughts on sourcing flooring from them now?
  7. Jeeze, can we please keep Whitefish and Schweitzer secret? C'mon NYT, we don't write articles on ASB about secret NYC organic kale shops, or whatever other destination you guys would prefer not to see overrun.
  8. Disappointing that people are looking at this as an exercise in finding loopholes. JFC people, if the US could have distanced and masked as well as Japan, we'd be looking at under 10k deaths in the US right now. As it is, we've surpassed the number of dead in Vietnam, and I imagine we'll surpass the 320k US deaths in WW1 in the next few months. Just sad that we're so unwilling to do the minimum.
  9. Pshaw, milk? Here in Portland, you'll know it's an emergency when the store is out of oat milk and kale. This happens every time it snows more than 1/4"
  10. Yeah, I spent an afternoon on a Thias Easy Jungle (the leopard print board) years ago and it was pretty easy to pick up. I believe that particular model is on the softer / friendlier side, which probably helped. It made me knees feel funny though, and not in a good way.
  11. I read that last summer! It's great, I 100% agree that he's an amazing prose stylist. The characters and their dialogue are incredibly charming.
  12. I'd like to preface this by saying that I know almost nothing about snowboard manufacturing, but I am a low-key hobbyist woodworker. I'm curious about how the cores are stored; I would have assumed that you need airflow to all six sides to keep the moisture content consistent in the whole blank, like you would for lumber that's being stored. Does that not apply to cores?
  13. As a type O, I must admit I was happy to see this when it was first reported by Chinese researchers awhile back. Those results were preliminary, interesting to see there is another (albeit non peer reviewed) study showing the same results.
  14. I hope you're wrong, but I fear you might be right. Also, I'm starting to wonder about RAMROD being held in 2021.
