Yeah, it's still purple-flagged last I looked. It's been that way for quite a while now, sigh.

Doesn’t seem any more dangerous than the normal jellyfish that I got stung by here as a kid.
@schiit what species is causing the purple flags in Corpus? This one or others?

It was just sea nettles, then Man o War, now maybe this. I'm in CA at the moment, I hope it clears up by the time we're back. Water was beautiful for a while.

People who’s not new to this hobby already know about the SW51 via word of mouth. They come here to read about impressions. If they like to share theirs they can sign up to do that.

SW51 is a SBAF beast, and ordering any for now is a pain in the ass. I'd only open a thread there when things in Putin-land start to be less crazy.

I think Zampotech NA still has SW51+ stock here in the States for order

Love it! Meowy Christmas!

At least you don't have to worry about the cat(s) knocking the ornaments off the tree.

This artist has a lot of skills too, I've been following her music... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9lAIvLosyg

Yes, I love this track!

Awesome track!

Shiiiiiiite. RIP.

Alan White too, as well as Andy Fletch from Depeche Mode. Ugh.

What I want to know is if the bag was stolen or Aer Lingus just figured 2 out of 3 bags was fine. Given their rep, 2 out of 3 was probably good enough and it was just sitting in a bin.

A few years ago, my wife flew from Newark to Heathrow. Her bag didn't arrive with her. The airline had no idea where it was. When she got back to Newark, on a whim, she went up to the check-in counter to ask about it. They tried to put her off, at first, but she persisted. Lo and behold, it had been right there the whole bloody time.

And some mushrooms even get people to join in the conversation!

TIL mushrooms are more social than me :( .

Consider this. If you were looking to spread your existence to other planets, what is more effective: Sending adults of your species to space in big, expensive, difficult to navigate and maintain rockets, or sending unborn members of your species in swarms of tiny, hardy, incredibly opportunistic spores?

I don't think you could do that in modern gaming as the house can boot you out (and does) if you start to win even a moderate amount of money, at least that's what they do in USA I think.

I'm sure you're right, and I'm sure the platters are much less worn overall, especially in the top casinos.

Amazing. What a genius.

All the best to you and yours as well. Enjoy, and stay safe.

Looking forward to it! Still mad about Game of Thrones, he really needs to finish those damn books.

I'm hoping somebody will finally do Dune (the book) justice.

That's amazing.

weird... I can only exhale thru mine

The list of things I wish I'd never learned from SBAF continues to grow ...

I have certainly been accused (often justifiably) of talking out of my ass.

My UPS store told me the same thing. However they also said if I show them it was packed in the original box with the original packing material that would also be accepted and insurable.

It just sounds scammy to me. I've had a similar problem before: Package shipped by UPS to me, try to ship it back in the same package was denied. FedEx gives me no problem. Maybe a local thing.

Also, UPS stores won't ship items with declared value above (i think) $2000 - has to be shipped through a UPS regional distribution center.
