Wow: salut.

Tim, do you know of any companies that do ground shipping (or otherwise *affordable* shipping for heavy packages) from the U.S. to Canada? I need to get a whack of books from the Chicago to Vancouver, doesn't matter if it takes a month, but no one does ground shipping across the border anymore. I don't need to put the GD books on a jet plane.

Also, my right eye produces a lot of snot that gets worked into a little ball at the inside (nose-side) of the socket. Left eye: doesn't make jack. Is this related to my sinuses? Is it best if I or my ladyfriend digs it out routinely (as is her wont) or can we let my snot-eye alone?

Thx.

I am not 'Humankind's Greatest Musical Genius', but I am in the west coast of Canada and bring shipments in weekly from Chicago. Please define 'a whack of books'. Are you talking a couple boxes, or a pallet of boxes?

Like 6-10 boxes, if the boxes were liquor-box sized.

Ok, estimating a shipping weight of 175lbs, with my rate it would be approx. $75 plus duty/brokerage. If the rates you find are way different then let me know and I'd be happy to help.

How do you feel about people calling your band The 'Pit?

It makes me think of an armpit when they do so.

Me too.

I'm fine with it.

Here's the conversation about calling the band Bottomless Pit.

Me: Hey Co I think we should call our thing Bottomless Pit.

Andy: That's funny!

So it is fine. And it makes me think of an armpit.

Evidently, you have been advised by others. Which is great, b/c I have no good ideas.

Also, my right eye produces a lot of snot that gets worked into a little ball at the inside (nose-side) of the socket. Left eye: doesn't make jack. Is this related to my sinuses? Is it best if I or my ladyfriend digs it out routinely (as is her wont) or can we let my snot-eye alone?

You probably have an odd tear duct over there or an odd tube-that-feeds-the-tear-duct thingy.

It's like when the jets in a carb or fuel injector get a little clogged. The more restricted they get, the more easily they are clogged, b/c they are not passing enough fluid to clean out the gunk.

At least that is my theory.

I would clean that shit out. If you can get your ladyfriend to do it, and she enjoys it, then by all means let her do it.

If you would have to choose between never riding a bike again in your life or never going to a cinema, what would you choose?

I take bicycling over the cinema. If it was never watch a movie in any format, it might be different, but I have a pretty big TV.

I thought it might have been because of that song on California.

No. I dimly remember the one you're talking about, but no.

You know what the best Bob Marley song is? Redemption Song. I've been sort of obsessed with it for a couple decades. It means an improbable lot to me.

I used to sing it to my daughter every night, when I was putting her to bed.

This is purely beautiful.

Hey Tim,

I also have been persuaded to buy a Merkur Futur based on this thread, and--holy not crap--best shave I've ever had. It's like a whole new day for my face. So thanks!

Not to be creepy or anything, but I also had my first Futur shave this morning and you can believe the hype.

The thought of so many people suddenly changing their shaving habits based on the PRF is proving to be a source of great mirth for me. What a country!
