Random Thoughts - Part III The Search for Spark (No Politics)
Quote:
I’ve had tons of issues with FedEx freight too. I can see their local hub from my office window. They would do things like delay shipments due to weather when it was fine out or say we were not open for delivery. When I would tell them that I can literally see their sign from where I am sitting I would usually get a call back from the terminal saying the actual reason was the trailer hadn’t been unloaded yet ![]()

I don't know about now but for the first couple decades after USSR, DHL was the only carrier that could be trusted with shipping anything of value to Hungary..

Why is the Dutch Marine knot considered inferior to the standard Bowline? It's my favorite go-to. I like the working end outside the loop.

I'm more of a round peg square hole kind of guy so for me it is opposing half hitches and done. Too tight? Cut with knife. I never have to retie my shoes.

Only difference is the rabbit goes around the tree the opposite direction before going back into its hole. I think there are knot snobs just like any other types of snob.

My favorite pair of tongs broke today
