I’d like to see some citations on that. They’re are several scholarly theories about the what the tree represents, but I’ve never heard this one.


Look at apps. There used to be some free apps that showed the knots with nice animations of how it is tied.
Practice with a larger rope that feels good in your hand, not fishing line. Some soft double braided nylon ropes just don’t hold knots very well and will come loose easily. That not good for actually using the rope but it’s kind of good for practicing knots. You don’t want to spend more time untying than tying. But if you really want to be a knot guy, this is a good excuse to buy a marlinespike.
Another fun thing to learn is splicing. If interested, Samson Ropes (great rope manufacturer but probably overkill for use around the house) has good fids (splicing tools) online guides and they have a splicing guide book you can buy too.

"I’ll weigh in a little bit here, I guess. At this point, I’d rather not implement something like this and don’t see the point of the legislation as written (other than, more than likely, get a foot in the door.) But my code is my speech. I doubt these laws would survive a challenge, as it’s pretty clearly government compelled speech.
Any lawyers looking for a test case? :-)"
I can’t find anything concrete from Fedora but the Fedora leader was thinking of ways to comply in some manner a month ago and had more ideas recently

He even shot him before pulling over. Being handi-capable isn’t enough for him, he’s multitasking handi-capable

I like a little spice but don’t get the people who are like “I’m ordering the flaming asshole wings. Boy, my asshole is going to be on fire tomorrow.”
You know what I like? Not having a flaming asshole. We live in a world where food has a neverending variety of flavors. Get one of the many delicious flavors that don’t involve scorching your asshole.


It’s not about quality.
Don’t be offended, I realize I’m the weirdo here, but they seem so pointless to be so time consuming. Entertainment in general is pointless, but I don’t spend hundreds of hours watching a movie.
I’m not into TV either though, so maybe it’s sitting still that I don’t like.


Is it something we need to do? I’ve never felt like it’s a big deal. I like the sunrise/sunset times in the summer and it would effect my life if that changed. I don’t like them in the winter but there’s no great alternative.


Video games. They were fun as a kid on a rainy day but they’re completely lost on me now

Revelation is vague enough they can get anything from it
Jesus thought he was coming back in a few years.
Matthew 16:27-28 “For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay everyone for what has been done. Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”

Get a $250 printer and start using it. It may be all you’ll ever need, but after a year or so it’s likely you’ll start seeing other printers with different functions that you think would be useful and will decide to upgrade. Hopefully you’ll know what you want by then.


Big tires don’t really help for that though, and lifts like that often have a tighter suspension and a rougher ride. The vehicle you want to drive fast over bumps would be some kind of luxury car that puts a lot of emphasis on having a smooth ride.
I don’t get how anybody can be into enormous children
