Building furniture 
I turned these: Into this: When we bought this house, it had thick, blue carpet everywhere. The previous owners had cats, and all of us are allergic to some degree so we had to pull it all. We replaced the carpet on the main floor with Pergo XP flooring (because toddler and… Read More »
Short of it is that random person emailed Larry Correia telling him that he should push his publisher to pressure Amazon to stop selling books by a now dead member of Al Qaeda. Larry responds by going on a rant about the first amendment. I think it’s the proper response. By the way, if you… Read More »

Sadly, it appears it may have been due to natural causes. I can hope his medical condition was something that was long and painful, but I’m not optimistic.

For folks who can get more than one 28-hour-per-week part time job (that’s coming, too, you know), you’re going to find people that make up to $62,000 and people that make more than $77,000*.
