9:00 PM
@Sue It's just another brand of ice tea maker.. wasn't sure how national they were, but they're the only competition around here.
 
Sue
@Frank Favorite flavor?
 
@LynnCrumbling In what section is that?
 
Sue
@Frank Must be local. I haven't seen that around here.
 
@Sue blueberry
 
9:02 PM
@Mooseman 11.3.3/11.3.4 (search for IFrame)
 
Sue
@bjb568 Yum!
 
@Sue hmm. idk.
that's a hard question.
 
Sue
Did you know that Ben & Gerry's has a graveyard with stones for each of their discontinued flavors? It's fun.
 
@Mooseman 11.2 says frameset/noframe/frame: "Either use iframe and CSS instead, or use server-side includes to generate complete pages with the various invariant parts merged in."
@Sue I've heard that.
 
@Sue no Ben & Gerry's here :P
 
9:04 PM
@Frank Sure there is! (Ben & Jerry's)
 
where?
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Their factory in Vermont is fun, but the Turkey Hill place offers more stuff to do.
 
I love Phish Food!
 
lel
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Us too.
 
9:05 PM
@LynnCrumbling This is going to create a new quirks mode.
 
Dark choc + ice cream = WIN.
@Mooseman Ref?
 
Sue
Oooops, mis-spelled Jerry's.
For me it has to have nuts in it. And not peach.
 
@LynnCrumbling Just my 2¢
 
I don't like pistachio ice cream
It's green...
Also don't like egg nog ice cream
 
Sue
@Frank I forgot - you don't like green stuff!
 
9:09 PM
:p
 
Sue
Funny, I love pistachios but not ice cream or any other artificial version.
And definitely no eggnog of any kind. Ick!
 
I don't like green mint ice cream either. I always get white.
@Sue exactly.
 
Sue
We don't have white mint ice cream. Sounds good. I like green mint choc chip, but I add almonds.
 
:/
weird
 
Sue
Says the man who likes to watch cats fall down all day!
:D
 
9:12 PM
isn't breyers mint choc chip ice cream, and TH philadelphia style white?
@Sue lol.
 
@Frank I know Breyers is white.
 
Sue
Now that you mention it, I think breyer's is white.
 
@Sue believe it or not... I sometimes do other things during the day.
 
Sue
Probably to eliminate food coloring, which is good.
 
@Frank Try ice cream from Mr. Milkman sometime.
 
9:13 PM
also looks more appetizing, and less pond-scummy...
 
Sue
@Frank You do about 100 things during the day!
 
@LynnCrumbling hmm. How many retailers do they have?
@Sue or 99
 
Sue
And are probably thinking about 100 more!
 
@Frank It is AMAZING. mrmilkman.com/mm2
@Frank It's home delivery.
 
Ah!
 
Sue
9:14 PM
@LynnCrumbling Mr. Milkman sounds cool!
 
I sometimes make my own, which tastes awesome.
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Cool website!
 
The best Ice cream I've ever had, though, comes from Pine View dairy (local to my area)
 
@Frank You can get milk, ice cream, and multitude of other products. Try them.. everything is great. And local.
 
Sue
You guys live in dairy country, probably why there's lots of good ice cream.
 
9:16 PM
yup.
 
@Sue Yeah.. and snack food.
Sheesh.
 
Sue
We have a few dairy farms around that make their own stuff, but, as with most things, the big guys are stomping all over them.
@LynnCrumbling Like...
 
over 50% of my neighbors are amish dairy farmers with 30+ acres each.
See more horse and buggies than cars sometimes.
It's so primitive...
but cool
 
UTZ.. Martins.. Sturgis...
 
Sue
@Frank Awesome. We visited once, and it was really hard not to take pix. But needed to be respectful.
 
9:17 PM
It's out of control, the number of chip/pretzel/snack mix vendors in this area.
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling We have Utz. Haven't heard of the others.
 
@LynnCrumbling There's Herr's snack foods... I knew Jim Herr before he died
 
Sue
@Frank We thought the buggies were way cool!
 
@Frank Right - Herrs, Bickels, G&S, Smittees Pretzels...
 
Sue
And we took a tour of an Amish farm, and ate in someone's home with no power, etc. Tourist-y stuff but was awesome. Great food! And the B&B we stayed in was owned by Mennonites - very nice people.
I wish we had had a huge truck to bring home Amish furniture.
 
9:21 PM
@Sue Yeah. also teams of mules instead of tractors - much more peaceful for the neighbors. I've actually seen a huge John Deere hopelessly stuck in mud, easily pulled out by a team of 6 huge mules.
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Never heard of any of these. Local stuff I guess...
 
@Sue was that in strasburg?
 
@Sue Snyder's ... Annie Anne's... @Frank - do we get to count Pepperidge Farms?
 
Sue
@Frank Can't remember. It was about 15 minutes from Sight and Sound.
 
@Sue Sounds about right. That's up 896.
 
Sue
9:22 PM
@LynnCrumbling We have Snyder's pretzels. Very popular around here, but I don't like pretzels!
 
@Sue Yeah, I'm not a fan either (unless I'm dipping the pretzel rods in my MINT CHOC CHIP ice cream ;)
^ See what I did there?
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling We wandered all around. Then we got in a car accident, had to leave the car there and go back, so we visited twice! Praise God, no injuries in that accident.
@LynnCrumbling Clever!
 
Sue
@Frank Funny! The mule teams were so gorgeous! I love those, and work horses.
 
This one guy trained his mule team to run home, so when he was making hay, and the 2 or 3 hay wagons were full, he'd hitch them all into a train, and the mules could take it down the road to the home farm unmanned. Illegal, but funny
 
Sue
9:25 PM
@LynnCrumbling Auntie Annie's started in PA?
 
It was a train like 70-80' long...
 
@Sue Lancaster...
 
really wide turns
 
Sue
@Frank Awesome!
 
@LynnCrumbling didn't know that...
 
Sue
9:27 PM
We got to go on a horse and buggy ride too, at a farm stand someplace. Again, tourist-y but fun. Such a peaceful area.
 
don't tell me they are planing to bring marquee back
 
@Sue o_O
 
@Sue yeah, I think that's in Strasburg.
 
@Braiam nah, actually - the opposite - it's gone.
 
Sue
@bjb568 Cool shades!
2
 
9:28 PM
I go up there for gasoline for the work trucks.
 
@Sue meh
 
Sue
@Frank Probably. We did a lot of driving around the small towns.
 
@Braiam Section 11 is "Obsolete Features"
 
Sue
@Frank How far away from you?
 
@Sue less than half an hour
 
9:30 PM
@bjb568 are you "meh"ing my shades?! HOW YOU DARE!
 
They have a station up there, that sells 0% ethanol gasoline. Much better for the engines.
 
:P
 
but costs like $2.45/gal :(
 
@Frank Are you west or east of 222?
 
They sell up to 110 octane gas...
@LynnCrumbling does it matter? :P
 
9:32 PM
@Frank Nope :)
 
atm, I'm east of 222
 
@Frank We had our son at Birth Care.. if you are east of it, figured you'd know where it was.
 
nope :)
never been there
 
Sue
I just clicked on that link about Marquee and it crashed my whole browser! Funny cuz this is Firefox on our decent computer, rather than Safari on my Ipad which is what I usually use.
@Frank Is that a lot or little for gas?
 
@Frank It's on 896, in Bart I believe.
 
9:34 PM
I used to do lawn care for Lancaster General hospitals/health campuses, but now smeone else does it (tree of life services, iirc)
the contract ended
@Sue a lot, here.
Normally don't have to pay more than $2.10 for 87 octane here.
 
Sue
@Frank Was curious because that's significantly lower than here. Although we did just go under $3.00 for the first time in years.
 
and $2.30 for 89 octane, which I always use.
 
Sue
For your truck?
 
@Sue Down in Louisiana they went under $1/gal
@Sue for everything.
 
Sue
@Frank D has relatives in Shreveport. They live on an army base, but apparently it's not a really nice area. I guess it's a good thing gas is low, since the people around there can't afford much.
 
9:38 PM
yeah
 
Sue
Are they closer to the refineries or something?
Shows you my lack of knowledge of such matters...
 
I'm in a wealthy area.
 
Sue
I didn't realize Amish country was wealthy.
Or only certain sections, I imagine. That was a dumb generalization!
@LynnCrumbling You live near Frank?
 
@Sue The average income here is quite high, and even the less wealthy can afford things like landscaping/lawn care services. Good for me, but the competition is pretty steep. Especially against the tycoons.
 
Sue
9:45 PM
@Frank I like watching the smoke detector stuff! I'm glad people can afford to pay you, but the whole tycoon thing is annoying. Like Walmart (though I do shop there!).
I don't like watching individuals put out of business. Happens a lot around here.
 
I don't shop at walmart, for just that reason. I try to budget high enough that I can patronize local companies with good ethics...

@Frank WINTERBASH IS OVER! :(
 
Sue
@Frank Definitely admire you for that. We have very few choices any more.
 
9:49 PM
@Sue :(
 
Sue
We always shop at local merchants when we can. Restaurants too.
 
!!/status
 
@Frank Running since 21:02:22 UTC
 
@Sue :)
@Sue, lots of funny/cute cat gifs
 
Sue
@Frank Shopping at local merchants is better too, because you meet nice people who really care about what they do.
 
9:54 PM
@Sue Yep, we're on opposite sides of Lancaster.. he's south of the city, I'm north of it.
 
@Sue yea.
 
Sue
@Frank Are they al falling down?
 
@LynnCrumbling South is better.
@Sue nope
some of them do, but most of them are just goofing off
 
@Frank If I didn't have to get to 30 on a regular basis, I'd definitely consider joining you.
 
or get a smartcar
:/
those things are a mess when you hit a deer
 
9:56 PM
Soon time to head to Oregon Dairy.. wife and kids are doing a GS Cookie booth there right now.
 
Ah!
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Thin mints?
 
^^ what happens when a smartcar meets a deer
 
@Sue Definitely the most popular...
 
always drive a truck in Pennsylvania.
Or a Hummer.
 
Sue
9:57 PM
@Frank Wow-who died? Driver, deer or both?
 
@Sue idek
looks like the deer did.
 
@Frank I hate deer. Dumb things. Had one slam into my rear passenger-side door when I as 17.
 
They sure taste good...
I never hunt though
 
@Frank YES they do.
 
I saw a deer farm the other day. Big slow deer that didn't run... so unnatural.
 
Sue
10:01 PM
@LynnCrumbling Must have been very scary. I love deer, though, because I love every animal.
 
@Sue even snakes?
I hate snakes
especially diamondbacks.
I had to dispatch one once - almost was bit
 
Sue
@Frank You mean deer being raised for meat?
 
@Sue yeah
they need quite the fence...
 
Sue
@Frank Sad.
 
Is cattle rasied for meat sad?
 
Sue
10:03 PM
@Frank I'll bet they do.
@Frank If not allowed to roam free and have a happy life!
 
@Sue I shouldn't say I hate deer. I should instead say I hate it when my car interacts with deer.
 
@Sue around here there are almost no animal concentration camps (like they have in the west), so that's nice.
 
@Sue They're incredibly common around here.. and when full moon hits, they come out looking for food in deep winter months, due to the lack of supply.
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Definitely get that. They can be very dangerous. One hit us once but we were fine. It went off into the woods but I cried for days worrying that it was injured.
 
@Sue Which translates into them being much braver than they ought to be. Especially around automobiles.
 
Sue
10:06 PM
@Frank I like that term! And yes I love snakes.
 
A friend just totaled his 2012 Mercedes-Benz c-300 4matic sport sedan... on a deer.
 
@Frank Ouch.
 
@LynnCrumbling don't know why he had it out in this weather anyway, but...
I guess 4matic is awesome on snow, but still.
 
@Frank Perhaps his Porsche was in the shop.
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling I was hoping deer in your area would have more natural feeding areas and not run out into the street as much.
@Frank Yikes! Was he/she ok?
 
10:08 PM
@Sue Yeah, they're getting pretty desperate at this point. Not much to eat.
 
@Sue We have about 6 deer living in our 3 acre woods. No hunting permitted.
 
Sue
@LynnCrumbling Sad.
 
@Sue The deer?
no, it died instantly
 
Sue
@Frank Is that called fallow deer? Yay for no hunting!
 
@Sue no, they're white tails
 
10:10 PM
I gotta scoot.. time for a commute. Have a good weekend all..
 
@LynnCrumbling ok, cya!
 
Sue
You too-happy cookie time!
 
@Sue Thanks :)
 
... and he floats from the shelf...
 
Sue
@Frank I found an old question of yours where you said you shot a raccoon in your yard! :(
 
10:12 PM
@Sue We've had a couple rabid raccons/skunks around in the past.
They're a safety issue imo
 
Sue
I was just going to ask that.
It was just funny the way you worded it in the question!
 
I think it's better to shoot them than leave them be, but that's just imo
@Sue which question?
 
Sue
Was afraid you'd ask. I think I saved the link. Was from 2012, about tree stumps.
I think it was in the comments.
 
hmm.
 
Sue
Actually I think you asked the question, but the raccoon part was a comment you made.
Checking to see if I saved it...
 
10:19 PM
@Sue Am doing an sql query...
 
Sue
Guess not. I think I was searching something by tabs and it came up.
 
ok, the query says there is only one comment on GL containing 'raccoon':
I use the same trap, and I caught a thirty pound raccoon that was eating my corn. Be careful to bait it with something they like better than corn. — J. Musser Dec 25 '11 at 2:26
 
flagged ^
 
Sue
Nope. It was something about shooting a raccoon and burying it in a tree stump?
 
10:21 PM
@Sue ew. Never done that.

@bummi Just figured that out, thanks.

yes

8:00 AM GMT is usual Meta and Drupal spam time :/
 
Sue
I'll have to join more, especially the tech-y sites, which seem to attract a lot.
 
so you could make accounts there ;)
 
Drupal and MSE get the most
idk why
 
meanwhile SU too
 
So I have the deputy badge at both places
 
Sue
10:32 PM
Cool! I have Meta so will go to Drupal right now.
 
and SU
 
Sue
What's SU?
 
superuser
askubuntu is comming up too
 
@bummi huh, didn't notice.
I appear to have only 56 helpful flags there...
 
Sue
Drupal done-will do the others...
 
10:35 PM
@Frank 298 / 47 spam
 
Must be coming in at night here...
 
@Frank no same time as SU short after Meta and Drupal
 
ah.
What time UTC?
 
Sue
All done! Now have to learn what Ubuntu and Drupal are!
 
@Frank 8:00 to 11:00 (about)
 
Sue
10:39 PM
@Frank That's why I don't like the helpful flags part of the new profile. Makes lots of us look unhelpful.
 
I usually end up going to bed when drupal/mse spam starts coming in full strength.
@bummi That's 3-6 am here
:P
 
Sue
@Frank You sleep? Could've fooled me! :)
 
@Frank ups, but I did calculate the wrong direction subtract 2 hours, blame on me
 
@Sue I usually sleep from 12:30 am or so until 5 - 5:30 am
@bummi ok, smack in the middle of my daily nightly sleep period.

We have a cat who throws up almost every day. We call her "eat and puke" cuz that's what she does! She's been doing it for 12 years, so it's not an illness, just annoying! Sounds gross and is usually on the bed or furniture! With that, I leave you. Good night one and all!
@Frank Weird!
 
@Sue lol, that's terrible!
Night @Sue!
