jamespphotogenicness of course it is a word! Better than photogenicocity! If a word appears in print x number of times, the dictionary people consider it valid. English is alive and great!
Had to drive 90 miles yesterday for a root canal, which was a lot of fun. But I did get to go to my favorite pizza place...so it was worth it!
That pizza looks very good, but not quite worth a root canal good. Dental work has a whole new meaning now that I’m doing rocks. Is that a nova tip? What grit? Is it sc? Hey can I have some of that polish so my rocks can smell like bubblegum?

I forgot to ask him those questions, dangit!
Too much walking shoes worn thin Too much trippin' and my soul's worn thin _______________________________
Oven element melted down, only 2 years old. No big deal, ordered a new one and put it in. Wife says oven still cold, pizza not cooking. After kids in bed put on my troubleshoot hat. Found when the element failed it took out the bake relay. Attempted to solder. If she doesn’t find me handsome at least she may find me handy.
Ready for test now. If it goes boom, Menards has 11% sale lol.
James, is Pippa the puppy you coated in white kaolin clay?
She got in the clay. I would have never done such
Yesterday, when I asked if Pippa was the puppy James coated in white kaolin clay, he said, "She got in the clay. I would have never done such."
But when it went down three years ago , he had said, "My wife kicked my azz for coating in this puppy in kaolin clay a few days ago whilst she was out glavanting."
Here's the link to the post in question, the thread entitled Fire pits, rim top selling well
So James, what's the verdict? Is it too late to breed Pippa this year? She is quite the fireplug, and being a little older, birthing her first litter of pups should be a breeze.
Her progesterone was at .75 which is base line, 8.0 is about the peak number for breeding. She probably has a rapid progesterone increases being in her prime breeding age rockpickerforever. Next test will be Tuesday. We can usually tell when a female is ready by counting the days from start of bleeding and their behavior. Last year she apparently fooled us. The progesterone testing is the safest way to go.
I'm not sure how to say this, the vet was stunned at how 'tight' things were down there. Obviously Pippa is not sexually active ?? lol. Please be aware this is my wife's hobby... Vet predicting artificial insemination for this reason, sorry male dog.

We pay our dentists a crap load of money miketknave. They are the master lapidarians ! Next visit insist on having them show you their cad cam diamond crown machine for making crowns since you guys make cabs. They use metal alloys or zirconium oxide ceramic(as in tumbling ceramics except most rock tumblers use harder/cheaper aluminum oxide ceramic media).
They slap a disc of alloy or zirconium oxide ceramic in the machine and it cuts like 20 crowns at a time.

This is interesting Pat. The need for new words is on the rise. The increase in communication via texting and keyboards, modern trends, new technology.
I wish they would standardize 'icon language'. There should be one standardized symbol for say 'refresh' or 'print' or 'go back' !@#$%. Kids have incredible icon interpretive skills due to their mastery of cell phones and other tech devices.
The clay rub downs stem from a more devious past knave. I used to take dates to the kaolin pits in college.(Engineering school suffered a shortage of ladies). One trip down to giant pit of the finest body rub in the world and they were waiting in line for a return trip. Credits for creativity...

Love the chessman/chastity plug - kidding about the latter.
