If you search for the origin of the traditional toast “here’s mud in your eye”, there seem to be two competing explanations. One is that it comes from horse racing, where all the jockeys except the leader will get mud kicked in their eye. The other is that it comes from Jesus curing a

Eye protection is an employer responsibility. Calling a mans wife those words mitigates all that. If a random plane ticket were to show up here with a street address on a piece of paper, he could have his eyes examined. It's best to get the whole thing out so a guy can get a real good look at the

In utility pole world, those “sidewalk guys” are sometimes called Queen’s posts, super common, very strong. They’re normally anchored with 5-6 foot anchors you twist into the bottom of a hole and fill and compact with rocks. All cheap and plentiful to buy. Same concept used to rig sailboat

If you configure an ATA that will actually draw dial tone from a POTS line, then it will work with this paging adapter. I think that would be an FXS config. FXO would give you dial tone from the ATA. Been a very long time since I use the linksys/cisco spa products to extend dial tone over

Actually, the recipes that I’ve seen to make your own Thousand Island dressing all have ketchup in them. Maybe that’s actually the “secret” that McD’s sauce has vs Thousand Island is no ketchup? I’ve never bought fry sauce but we do occasionally mix mayo and ketchup and some of my kids love
