Open Bar: ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Looks like the gas and coke building is slated for demolition.

Are they going to salvage any of it? It's probably full of awesome old moldings and things.
Or are they just going to wreck it?

I'm guessing they'll probably just wreck it. After 50 years of abandonment, salvage would be a matter of picking through the disaster that the interior is for scraps that are still usable. Not that there aren't treasures, just that themotivation to find them might not be strong enough.

Aw.
That stove on flickr looks 50's vintage. It could probably be refurbished.

It's possible that they'll let an independent salvage company go in before demolition. I wouldn't count on it though.

I have Yaktrax, perhaps it's time for an upgrade.

Even on sheer ice they grip enough, and the metal bits are replacable.

Ketamine and heavy machinery seems like a perfect mix.

Yeah, that was kinda my thought too.

Really, I don't know why it isn't more of a thing.

I woke up full of rage, hate, and resentment, as is fairly typical this time of year when I have to do a bunch of COMPLETELY POINTLESS BULLSHIT like buy a fucking dead tree and stick it in my living room, and then somehow scrape together enough cash to buy the children some kind of non-shitty presents to put under it.

STUPIDEST FUCKING TRADITION EVER. FFS.

Oh, and then of course I didn't want to be the one asshole in my mom group to not do Secret Santa, so I spent money I don't have to buy some nice bullshit and now I have to spend more money I don't have to ship it.

Ah yes. The money thing. Where everyone deserves your cash in the form for MORE STUFF because TV internet 'tradition' says so. It is a fucking stupid thing. The designation of ONE SINGLE DAY OF THE YEAR when THIS ONE THING should happen. Along with all these bizarre now mostly meaningless symbols being slathered all over everything. The rest of the year - fuck everyone.

Actual tradition is probably more along the lines of clothespin dolls and fruit.

I approve.

Night spags.

Sleep well, safe trip.

[Cardinal Pizza Deliverance.]

Wheeeeee! I should so be asleep, myself, but I can't sleep for another hour or two. Blarget fargen.

Ethical Dilemma - Just had a huge tender in for enabling works to create a new supermax jail. I think I'll be making some "mistakes" on this one.

Unfortunately, not an option. The better option here is smiling, nodding and then giving them a crazy price. It's a good client, just has some unfortunate sides to their business. On the plus side, I'm going to end up at all sorts of events relating to this and I'm betting they're all going to love discussing the prison pipeline.
