Yeah, it's covered. You don't need to move it out of the elements and
no reason to move it into the elements, either. That's why you put it
where you did. :)

A 55 gal drum could weight 55 lbs. That would be cool. Mostly, a 55 gal drum is a metal container that has the capacity to hold 55 gallons. It's a iconic, ubiquitous, container used to hold dead bodies, nuclear waste, etc.

Filled with water it'd weigh close to 500 pounds... empty close to 40
pounds.

Imagine that. You're playing video games with your young nephew, you hear somebody outside, you take a look, and then you're shot dead.

Anyone can carry a gun, may not be legal, but people carry guns
everywhere. Anyway this Floyd was not shot, so the subject of guns is
moot. At this time I believe that the truth about the cause of his
death will surface after the autopsy, everyone needs to have patience.
There were several witnesses right there, no one intervened. I
watched that video, I don't believe he was suffocated, not if he could
clearly speak. Everyone should say "I can't breathe, I can't breathe"
everyone will realize that they couldn't speak those words if they
couldn't breathe.

I'm not going to search on line but I'd venture that there are more

everyone who regularly goes boating carries a firearm.

Wrong. There's police brutality wherever you find police. My daughter's friend's brother was killed by the cops using a choke hold.
 
The difference in my land is that you don't have half the people afraid of the other half. There's all kinds of people on this rock but we all share a common culture. We don't mind if you look different or have a heavy accent, we'll try to communicate/help/share with you anyway. The reality is that all you have to do to have a good time on this rock is to respect the Hawaiian/local culture.

I got the "You stopped me because I am black" line a few times. Truth
was I had no idea of his race when he was pulled over. He had been
pulled over because he drove for a company that was being audited and
they wanted time markers. His log book was 12 hours behind. He got a
ticket for failing to maintain his log, which he was sure he got because
he was black. I told him to make sure his log was caught up and showed
him at our location at the current time. .... just in case the company
got audited and his file would be pulled because of our contact. He
said he couldn't do that because the company would punish him.
 
As soon as he left I faxed everything to the guy who was doing the
audit. He had them pull that guy's file and his log showed him off duty
some place in Kentucky at the same time I had given him a ticket in
Ontario. He got charged again.

Lots of people are trying to work their way up and a lot of them are
qualified. Some people might be lucky that they blame their lack of
success on their race. There is nothing good to be said about a
qualified straight white man who complains about being passed over for
promotion in favour of a woman/black/ disabled.... person.

I used to see driving records and usually checked out conviction records
to see if a warning was in order. If I was dealing with someone who was
rude, obnoxious and aggressive his record would show several occasions
where he had multiple tickets, usually for minor things for which
warnings are usually given.... attitude adjustment. Obviously other
people thought they were assholes too.

It depends a lot on the region. I grew up near Toronto in a WASP town.
Toronto was almost exclusively white. China town was a couple blocks and
I remember seeing only about a half dozen black people when we went
through the city. It is entirely different know. It is an extremely
diverse city and the smaller cities and towns around it reflect that
diversity.
I don't hear much complaining about Indians.... until they do something
to leverage the government for more money. There are some issues there
that need to be dealt with. There is a lot of poverty that could be
addressed by getting an education and getting jobs, but that might
involved some degree of assimilation, which they seem to think is a form
of genocide.

Actually Bruce kind of has it right here.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States
 
Depending on how you slice-n-dice it, white people (includes several
hispanic groups) are 73% (or omiting latin american hispanic white'
54%). Black is 17%. Now look at the stats with that in mind.

You're not stupid Bruce, but you are very biased. You only
interpret things to fit your own agenda.
 
Your opinions are always the correct ones. Any other opinions
come from stupid people.

Sheldon, this is the first time you've ever revealed just how
serious your breathing issues are.
 
No wonder you insist on the best inside air filtration in
the universe. Also explains how even your tractor has closed
environment.
 
I wish you well.
 
note: have you ever used "Symbicort?" It's an inhaler only
to be used in severe cases of asthma and COPD after milder
medications don't work so well.
 
I was overprescribed that once and it sure did work well.

Maybe he don't need them. The meds didn't seem to do much for him.

Many times I've heard "I'm not working overtime because you pay too much
in taxes" It is not easy to explain to many people. Often the same ones
that want to borrow 5 bucks until payday.

I never ate spicy foods while growing up either. These days, I like food that has a little kick. Beats me why that is. Here's the real picture of a loco moco. The dish was invented by a little old Japanese lady that had a diner in Hawaii. She needed a cheap food item that the kids could afford after a day of surfing. She pretty much nailed that one. The rest is history.

Storing is storing. If they are not out during prep and cooking, they
cannot possibly break in the food.

Sur la Table lists them for $4-5, which is probably what I paid for mine.
 
There's some monkey business with Amazon's pricing. I've seen them do
that for stuff that is discontinued.

I use the smallest of those "storage" bowls to emulsify salad dressing
with a fork. I beat the hell out of that glass bowl with a dinner fork
every time.
 
I just can't find it in me to worry about that. If I ran a restaurant,
things would be different. (For one thing, I wouldn't make a single
serving of salad dressing.)

Ramekins are a specific type of ceramic bowl, usually meant for
something else. There are various small, durable glass bowls, or little
ceramic or metal saucers that can be used. I usually just set the
container out to remind me.
