Tundras live: A Bunch of Idiots And A Bunch of BS- Resume discussion group

I don't think any of ours have stopped running since April. Except when they broke, of course.

 

Was Boris OK?

 

Always feels good when a fellow Tundra driver gives you the hang loose sign on the way home from work.

 

The Shaka?

 

Yup! I’ve never heard it called that.

 

However, according to the Honolulu Star-Bulletin, the prevailing origin story goes back about a century to Hawaiian plantation worker Hamana Kalili. His job was to feed sugar cane stalks into the rollers of a machine that would squeeze out the cane’s sweet juice. One day, Kalili’s hand got caught in the rollers and he ended up losing his three middle fingers. The company, the Kahuku Sugar Mill, gave him a new job as a security guard; every time he waved, he’d make what’s now known as the shaka hand. From there, local children mimicked and spread the gesture.

The more you know!

 

You don’t have one of those self deploying car umbrellas yet?

 

Ah, so he's putting a rush on it. Good to know.

 

Why is @French Avocado going through and liking all my posts from 3 weeks ago?

 

Because this is the best thread ever with tons of fun although I do not have time to follow it during the week!! I catch up on the weekends when I get a chance.

 

I’ve got 2 wasp nest that I have to get today before a home inspection on Monday. Should be fun.

 

I love that their choice of music was the 'conference screen saver' music, and not something from [insert angry band name]

 

That’s a good idea. Mine are on the eves of the house. I can get on the roof and reach over the edge to get them and knock the nest off then climb down and kill all of them!

 

Would working at night be better, since they're largely inactive at night? And to decrease the chances of getting stung even further, using soap and water from a super-soaker, which you pay the kid next door to use?

 

Early morning and evening are the best times. I just use the foaming commercial spray.

Douse their door with a steady stream so there's enough to kill those that come out angry, then saturate the nest so it soaks in and kills the ones inside. Redo the doorway spray, and let it sit overnight so any stragglers come back to the nest and die as well.
