Boarded up a window at 2 AM with duct tape and a pizza box, it held for 3 days

Man that is some MacGyver level stuff right there, hats off to you. Been there with the late night fixes and honestly half of mine are STILL holding up way past when they should have quit. Sorry about the window though, neighbor kids and baseballs are a rough combo.

Wait, doesn't cutting the bulk ferment less affect sourness than changing your starter ratio does?

My trash can scarecrow lost his head in a storm on Tuesday and the squirrels have zero fear now

Wait, a headless trash can actually scares squirrels off? Pretty sure they just like the perch.

The EPA fine I nearly got hit with over a cubic yard of old sediment

A cubic yard over the line and that's a 12k fine? That's insane. You can't even eyeball that slack, a dump truck could settle and push you over. I figured they left a few feet of wiggle room, not measure the exact pile edge. Florida really does not play around with that sediment stuff.
