This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Our budget is $2.9M and 20 years. We hope to send Kaiylleigh and Brngn to college with their own custom grown chairs.
