The post whore thread.

Just for my Post Whore Thread peeps.

Pretty good deal. How many you buy?

None, I bought a bunch when I was first starting to get into prepping and now they all just float around in different vehicles and bags. I just spent over an hour looking at all the commercial stuff. I want a paper towel dispenser for my garage. A lot of that stuff is super expensive for what you get though, like over $100 for a 13 gallon plastic trash can that is probably $25 at Wal-mart. I see a lot of stuff marketed to businesses that is marked way up because they know that companies will pay that price. For example, there are some "Adjuster tool belts" floating around that are over $100 for something that is probably $25 at Home Depot.

So apparently the front end of a Ford Explorer travelling at 40 mph takes a lot more damage than the bed and bumper of an F-250 super duty when the pick up pulls out in front of you to make a left turn when you have a green light. At least the other vehicle was a CDOT contractor that cleans up the accident scenes so he had equipment to clean up the coolant, glass and plastic all over the road.

Hope you're okay. Was he making a left across your lane of travel?

I bought a bike from izzy, filled up the tires and rode it around my neighborhood. 1) I'm out of shape. 2) I developed running muscles, but not bicycling muscles. 3) I feel GREAT. 4) I decided that a good future habit would be to only drink beer that I get by riding my bike to the liquor store, so that's what I did.

He did. I was going south on Wads and he was turning left on US 285 from the northbound lanes. I had a green and he had a flashing yellow arrow. I'll be going to urgent care in the morning, my lower and mid back have tightened up and gotten more sore throughout the day.
