TORT: The ONSC Rant Thread (4 Viewers)

I'm a little odd, I confess, but I get high almost every day on the great bong of physics. What an f'ing rush. If it wasn't for continuous NC legislation sending us backwards 40 years I'd stay iindefinitely. As it stands I have 2 years til full retirement and walking.

After that?

You and Natalie will have a place to come crash quite shortly if you want....



PS: The snow caps are the Continental Divide.

PSS: My road is 5 miles of dirt before the driveway.

Hot tub ready....

IS THAT YOUR HOUSE?!?!!

 

[OGBeno]

Will be in September.

 

[GLTHFJ60]

Will be in September.

That's effing gorgeous. Congrats brother!!!

 

[OGBeno]

We'll see how gorgeous it is when the average snowfall in Nederland is about 25 inches per month during the winter months.

 

[GLTHFJ60]

At least it'll be dry snow, not wet sticky snow. Better buy a snowblower this summer when they're cheap!!

 

[Trollhole]

Sweet. Can't wait to come visit you.

I will have to learn how to use a Deuce and a Half as that is a communal snow plow truck for the 4 houses on this "road"... I guess we take turns with each snowfall.

Sweet. Can't wait to come visit you.

Yeah, this town would be RIGHT up your alley Marshall.

Way to go @beno - Nederland really took off in pricing the last few years and seems like an amazing town.

 

[slceso]

Yup. 5 years in a PhD program was a the biggest waste of my iife.

Didn't help that my dissertation director died in the middle of me writing my dissertation.

I will always be "ABD".

I'll call you Dr. Beno anyway if that is cool with you. You'd think they would do something to try to make it work for you.

 

[OGBeno]

Yes, housing for a 1900 person town is outrageous. Median home prices are about $395K in Nederland.

Luckily, this house was a bro deal. Good friend and MUD member's sister owns it and she travels 3 weeks out of the month all year long.

 

[JohnVee]

Good friend and MUD member's sister owns it and...

...she's single and open minded.

 

[CharlestonG8R]

Will be in September.

My god that's beautiful! Congratulations!

 

[OGBeno]

...she's single and open minded.

No.

Gawd Damn Onur that is pretty amazing. You just summed up my dream retirement home in one post.

Well no technically my dream retirement is to buy, run and live at this bar I went to in Switzerland, there is a picture of me at 1 year old standing in front of it. I've yet to go back but my brother has been a few times now.

But a set up like yours is a close second

I'm going to have to buy a another cruiser now just so I can come visit and be let on the property.

Should we start a thread called "Another BMW driver gave me the finger/cut me off/highbeamed me/yelled at me/honked at me/all of the above just because I was on the same road that he was"?

 

[uzj100]

We should and we could include the beltline people that can not move over for any reason when I am attempting to merge. Crazy. Middle lane and far lane completely empty for miles. Same person that has not figured out how to defog the windows. ;<)

 

[QsLC75]

Toyota service advisors not knowing what is included in a maintenance service, timing belt & H20 pump, which I asking for a quote. Then when I asked about the serpentine belt, telling me it was included. Then calling me after I left to tell me it was not included.
