LOL. I just want to try it once, too many rubbish carbs and crap to be
eaten regularly.

>You're not American so maybe you can travel soon.
 
Technically, we can both travel to and from Thailand, but few flights
available plus quarantine B.S and too many other hoops to jump
through. So, we're better off here for now, plus my wife may have to
stay longer until her marriage/partner visa is properly submitted.
It's been interesting to see how my wife has adapted to and embraced
the lifestyle here, even enjoying the winter.

I bought a lrg can of Peanut Patch boiled peanuts.
 
Not too bad, but iffy. A lot of them hadda be tossed cuz the nut-meat
jes wouldn't come outta the shell. Too swollen by most stds (the can
was fulla water), so apparently they had been pressure cooked.
 
I recall doing boiled peanuts on my cheapO electric stove, with a person-
from-here's recipe. Now, I have a 2 qt Crock-Pot to cook boiled
peanuts in. Can anyone help me?
 
I've seen everything from 18 hrs on "hi" to 4-6 hrs on "low". Spicy,
Cajun, salted, plain, start-with-green (I didn't), yadda, yadda. I
don't wanna have the nuts so cooked, I can't get 'em outta the shell,
but I got "geezer teeth". It's all I can do to chew off "al dente"
strands of pasta. ;)

What do you know about that? Yoose got no heart nor soul. You is a cold fish. My guess is some kind of haddock. I'm a yellowfin tuna myself - a warm blooded fish.

Why so many insults lately? And not just to me. Are you nearing a
melt-down?

You don't seem interested in other people - no heart. You don't seem to relish your life - no soul. Indeed, you are a cold fish man.

I called the number that Ross gave me. The man gave me a headache! He
started by saying very flatly. "This is not a recording!" Then he launched
into Shakespeare because he thought I said my name was Juliette. Then
something about a guy called him to put the mailbox in. He put it in and we
have to pay the guy. He wants me to send him a pic of the mailbox. Why? I
don't know.
 
When I told him that it wasn't the right mailbox, he said the guy ordered a
10 slot. They don't make them that way. They never did. Ours was in fact a 9
slot. The closest thing they had was a 12 slot but for some reason he
convinced the guy to take a 13 slot. Something about the slots were bigger
so maybe we didn't need package lockers. Pretty sure this unit has one
package locker. Said if we wanted package lockers, we'd have to pay for and
put another unit in.
 
So... I'm still just a confused. I still have no key. But Ross is messaging
me. He sent me a scan of the invoice. Not sure how he got that. Said he
thought the keys were not done yet and the guy would contact us when they
were done. Sometime this week. He too said we each owe $200. Hmmm...

I can't say what you should do but I'd just tell him that I no contract or verbal agreement with him but $100 would be agreeable to me. If it was agreeable with him, I'd give him the hundred bucks in cash when he gave me the key - preferably at the box so the key can be verified to work. Easy as pie.

They shouldn't be allowed to vote until they can show they know how to
change a car tire.  The dipshit Millennial next door - who still lives
with his mother - couldn't get into his car.  I showed him where the key
was hidden in the fob and opened the door for him. Everything lit up
inside - the dome light, dashboard, and radio but it wouldn't start.  I
had to tell the idiot to change the battery in his remote.  He went
inside and got the spare and, like freaking magic, the car started.  Of
course he said he was going to take the dead remote to the dealer.  I
suggested a quick YouTube search and a trip to Home Depot for the $.99
battery.  I had a CR2025 at home but I wasn't going to hand it to him.
 
The old joke about asking the neighbor kid to stop your VCR from
blinking 12:00 has turned on them.

True that, but it probably doesn't make much difference in Kuthetopia.

Looks good, as usual. I notice that the cucumbers have about half the
peel removed.
 
Some people do not like the texture / taste of the peel. Some people are
okay with it. But why remove only half?

I would believe the Polder and get a new smoker thermometer.  My Egg
thermometer lasted three or four uses before it was off.
