Long answer: Siberia.
Most of the time poles and wires don't carry near as much load as when ice builds up and wind starts blowing.
Building them to always handle that much load would be expensive.
We had an ice storm that even brought down the big metal transmission towers.

I can't find it right now but there is a thread on here somewhere about keeping other people from using your good sewing scissors for cutting paper and stuff.
The best/funniest idea I saw was putting a padlock through the scissor holes, locking them together.

Carla, now that you've found your good hair cutting scissors. That thread might come in handy.
Found it:

People can be very protective of their good scissors..

My hair cutters just say FORGED STEEL USA.

Since it settles to the bottom of the jar.

I like the way it tastes.

This is a great idea.

From my experience clay will stick to most anything solid, that isn't powdery like drywall plaster.
It's even hard to wipe off your leg when it dries.
The roughness of the plywood might even help it stick.

I vote for a manual transmission.
No matter what vehicle you get.
My dream truck would be an old 4x4 S10 with a TDI engine conversion.
But we won't find one on a salesroom floor.

Glad to hear people aren't having a problem with feeding them to chickens and encouraging them to eat eggs.
My grandma said to always roast them first.

I've heard the "skin" on the inside is high in collagen and might be easily separated with acid (maybe vinegar.)

Hey Michele, you are kind of new here.
Wondering if you know about the purple moosage system.
You click on the envelope at the top of the page and you can write a private message to someone,
which is then, I'm told, given to a purple moose who delivers it.
Or maybe the moose has delivered some to you.

 I'm not sure you should put your number on the internet, maybe someone can delete that for you.
