An older, but still useful, book detailing various types of edible foods that grow in the wild in North America, with illustrations.

For years the Tattoo industry was shrouded in secrecy. Artists didn't want others in their area, which they assumed they owned because they were established. What they forgot is how they got there and that they were not born tattooists. So the big question was, where do I obtain the knowledge...

We'll be out near Hayfork, CA. We're out on some random property working, but we've got the RV and our cat. We dont know this dude well enough to leave our home and pet there, and we also have to be in Portland on the 29th. So I don't know if it can work out. I'm crazy bummed, but we we need...

Matt! One of my best friend's here in Oak works at a screen-printing shop. He dislikes his job immensely, and is a huge supporter of these kind of projects, so I'm sure we could a decent discount. lol If not, I do have a few other friends and acquaintances who work at other shops in the bay...

Deinitely *not* driving down in the RV :/ I cut off the mechanic friend who was helping me (not a great friend), and found a new one. Turns out, I've been driving around with an unbolted radiator, rusted-through mufflers, cracked leaf springs, and more. Also, the DMV is trying to fuck me out of...

Welcome! You should definitely try to come to slabs with us. I'm sure youll meet a ton of rad peoples :)

Play in the West Coast!

{I'm sleep-deprived and curious, so what the hell... } Who here is on a dating site? How's that working out for you? Where are the dating sites for non-squares/vegetables?! Should STP have a "hook up/dating" section... ? ~ soenke { via tapatalk }

Hey all, sorry I've been mia a lot lately. I've been wracking my time with Omni projects helping to get it open and ready for the insepctions. I've been working on ways to make my ip static for private trackers like MAM, so I can get more quality books. I'm still uploading my library to mega -...

Welcome to the glory of STP membership, Rob! Behold it's crusty wonder.

Welcome to STP, Siphran! Hope you find some good conversation and info here :) Keep us updated with your travels! p.s. What part of Reddit mentioned us? I'm on there all the time but never thought to look for STP on there.

Loops are really good. I stick to side streets that loop along the freeway. Very little traffic. Also, if you don't have solar/batts yet, and use a generator: if you park in the middle of the block, along the freeway side of the loop road, with the gen on the sidewalk bewteeen your and the...

Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!

True, that an aspect you have to watch out for. The acting crazy tactic is hit or miss and should used in appropriate situations. Most would-be ne'ev-do-wells are opportunists and usually won't try anything if it seems like it wouldn't be easy. With certain people, the weapon-defense-offense...

Exactly. Well put.

Awesome, I can't wait. Link it here or pm me, either one is fine. No worries, I didn't notice any weirdness. I agree with you both about Calibre; as a dual-booter, yea, it definitely helps not having to use multiple apps for each os). Also, it's pretty and I love the mazzanine style UI - I...

@dmac66 It was a joke on how something that can "open most doors in the united states" only costs $9.99 - The same price as most things 'As Seen on TV'. And like many things in TV-land (my favorite land o the completely incompetent humans), they often caption "Now with 20% more fiber!"

No, I haven't. I haven't even been anywhere in Canada yet. I lost my passport a while back and have been too lazy to get a new one, lol. I know that there are ways to cross in and back without one, but I'd rather have one when traveling across country lines - better safe than sorry, right? I...

I second what everyone said about having something to defend yourself. A good rule of thumb, I've found, is to act like you're completely and utterly bat shit insane. Talk to invisible people and walk around like a drunk, angry vietnam vet. That coupled with a good knife, some pepper spray, and...

Welcome to the site, humanguy! If you're serious about traveling, be sure to post some of your questions on the other forum sections and when you're ready, head over to the Ride Board and Meet Up sections! Good luck!

What is the fucking point of you?

Only 9.99? Does it now have more fiber?

If you were a manager at Greyhound, then you would know about the Homeward Bound program, and would be offering that information, rather than trying to get all of arrested. In almost every state, even walking into a store with any money on your person is considered intent to steal, and is in...

Yea, what is this site anyway? Homeless Assistance Coalition?

Nice! I'll take it all! It'd probably be easier for you to upload the folders to your own mega account - or I can give you the log in creds to the one I already made for the library. It'll probably take me a while to organize and edit everything together - a whole 'nother 30+GB! :D but I should...

Some states/counties are easier than others. Denver was a cinch. No meetings, just 3 months automatically after all the paperwork and intake. Here in Oakland, I think it's easier than anywhere else. They made the work help meeting optional a few years back and the quarterly reports are now...

Yea of course, I have my days. I stay up all night a lot and after a certain hour I get a little washbrained, lol. It happens to everyone!

Lol. Liars... I complete feel you on that ::facepalm:: I've traveled to some places that were just ripe shite. I've never been to Florida though, thanks for the heads up! Matt started the crustsurfing section a few months back and replete with people going to and fro. You should definitely check...

Thanks for not taking it personally and going off about it :) I think you've got a good idea there with getting one now and letting it get used to bike life. One really good thing you can do now, is get yourself food stamps. It's good to have that extra biut of income set aside just for food...

I noticed there's almost nothing on here about locks, security, or even safety, really. I think it's important for everyone to remember that one of the most valuable things you can do for your mobile home on the road, is to make sure it's safe and secured. Not only for the safety of itself, but...

Another good thing to do with leather/boots is bees wax! Along with a few essential oils, and a couple other secret ingredients (found easily if you know what to search for). Anti-bacterial oils are best, but best not to start out with abrasive ones like tee tree, especially on older leather...

This is actually hundreds of years old. Nice post on here! Way to bring back 18th century recipes!

Yea, congrats! Welcome to the site! We always appreciate another brain full of info and stories on here!

Welcome! Glad you finally made the jump :) Your version of travel sounds brilliant. I've spent a lot of time alone the coast, living off the hidden beaches and coves. It's grand. What made you finally make an account? Besides the site being awesome, of course.

What's that?

Yea, uploading each book here would be so aggravating. There are literally thousands! I made a Mega account, I think I'm just going to go that route. It's way better than 4shared, thanks for the suggestion! I'll let you know when I've got a few folders uploaded.

H̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶f̶u̶n̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶P̶o̶r̶t̶l̶a̶n̶d̶!̶ ̶:̶)̶ Screw Portland. That place sucks anyway.

Sounds rad! Bike touring is way fun. I did it a little bit (two bikes and a portable bike rack, with one carshare on the way) between Austin and Nola a few summers back. No matter where you travel, if you don't have couches lined up, I highly suggest making sure you've got a really good, light...

No, CA as in California. I haven't been to Canada yet, but I hope to vitisit some summer soon. What do you mean by 'alternative travel'? As in trains and such? Yeas, a bit, but I haven't caught out for years now. I'm mostly a "car-pooler" now, lol. There are a few train hoppers on here that...

Man! I haven't hopped a train in years, I could give you a few pointers but I'm not first person I'd choose to do it. There are a few others on here that are far more active with the rails than I am now. I mostly hitch and grab rideshares. I'm a bit lazy when it comes to travel these days; I've...

Hey! You guys piled into the coffee shop near Jack London, downtown Oakland, earlier this year. I chatted with two of you for a bit and then you all took off. I ran into a friend who reminded me of you. Did you make it to wherever you were going? Are you still in the US?

Ugh, that site was a mess. I'd thrash my laptop if STP was like that. Yea, most of the site is 404. Very lame. When you go to the 'profiles page', it looks like there's only two members, which is weird. I didn't sign up though, maybe they're guest protected? And spam? Is that spam? I think I...

This is amazing :)

Welcome to STP, I hope you fin what/who you're looking for :) If you ever find yourself in the bay area, send me a pm!
