Muddy what are your experiences with tunnels?

 

[Mudcat]

First thing that comes to mind is my song Diggin' which has the first line:

This is a tunnel - but it ain't the tunnel of love



Other than that, hmmm, not much.

No, I think that's it - just the song.

Big-ass circular bore.

They carve the rock with a huge borer and then they spray the tunnel with high strength concrete grout so pieces won't fall in from the top.

I have a semi-regular get together with a handful of guys from my old addictions recovery meeting. Very informal - we just hang out for a few coffees at a Tim Hortons some Saturday or Sunday mornings.

Here's my point: if you indicate by the group email that you are going to be there but then you miss it, it is not necessary to apologize. Or okay, maybe some sort of acknowledge of the situation makes sense and that might come out in the form of an apology. I don't need it or look for it but I guess it's something people might do.

But it is not necessary to phone me and repeatedly apologize and then send me a follow-up email 3 days later with yet another apology. If you were supposed to give me some money you owe me or something like that, then sure. An apology makes sense. But it is just some informal gabbing over coffee. You are not there for me.

If you are imagining your absence left me in tears --> no. If you are imagining I got all specially dressed up for you --> no. I just assumed something had happened and maybe I'll see you next time. Good enough. It's not that I don't care about you but WE ARE MEN.

How about if a woman does it then?

Depends how hot she is.

A month or two back, I stopped getting mail delivery to my door. They put in a big community box for my building. That meant I had to supply a pad lock.

Well I'm here to tell you, my padlock sucks.

Maybe I should have sprung for more than $1.79

And in a piece of completely unexpected news, door-to-door mail delivery within my building is resuming on Monday. That is a genie I never expected to go back in the bottle.

I am being requested to remove my $1.79 padlock from the community box and I have just tried and, lo and behold, I could not get it to open. Seems like it served its purpose and died.
