Sewing question
I want to make a sort of sleeve to cover something. It needs to be *very* flexible (floppy, even). But it also needs to maintain its length and not fold "in" on itself.

I've been needing to for months to use the "Farm Direct Nutrition" checks I get every year (6 checks for $4 each that they issue to "seniors). They expire on November 30th so I was cutting it a bit close.

Body disposal
I was reading something with the typical "put the body in the hole before they pour the concrete bit.
This is practically a cliche, and the void that will result in the concrete could cause the foundation to fail. Which gets things looked at. Not good.
Then I recalled a scene I've seen in downtown Portland several times over the years when they were ( Read more... )
