I'm sitting around and hoping it warms up and clears off soon. There is a weather system moving East just South of here. It is wet here from an over night rain and it continues to lightly sprinkle or heavily mist since. A little sunshine would make a world of difference.

The sun did break through the clouds and has peaked out a number of times. It's still cloudy but there is some sun and it has warmed up. I went riding but the South wind beat me up. I rode two loops South and put the bike up. If it calms down, I'll try to ride again later. Otherwise... I'm done for the day with only twenty five miles to my credit.

Chicken fried steaks and a veggie are on the menu for tonight. If I have my way, it will be fried okra.

So glad your problem was resolved. What was the suggestion that lead to the restoration of you lost calendar events?

He sent me a TM and I clicked on the link. He joined my phone, took control, and it was so fast I may not recall all he did. Clear cache, then synch. Then we did the same to the second phone. Wonderful experience.

I did not have to wait on hold. Guess why.

Stick figure joke...

In spite of having a sorry day of golf today, Rory McIlroy is tied for 1st going into tomorrow's final day of play. Rory won the Masters last year and has a chance to join an elite group that have repeat wins in the tournament history. Jack Nicklaus (1965–1966), Nick Faldo (1989–1990), and Tiger Woods (2001–2002) are the only repeat winners though there are other players that have multiple wins. Rory had a significant lead going into today but his one stroke over par today let everyone catch up to him. My favorite golfer is Scottie Scheffler. He started the day at par after two days play. He shot seven under par today which puts him just four strokes off of the lead.

When you consider the weight and leverage if that weight is away from the wall, that was a pure failure by design. Not to mention the lack of a handrail that has grabability and balusters spaced close enough together to not allow a 5" diameter sphere to pass between them at any point. At least it failed close to the floor.

Seems to me that ethanol-free gas would be more effective in your small engines than premium with ethanol... even if it's Top Tier gas.

I'm no gas or engine expert. I'm just doing what the boys at the mower dealership told me to do. I'm buying the gas they recommended and from the establishment they recommend. I'm into my 12th year without an engine problem. (knocking on wood) Maybe I used up all my bad mower luck with that Walker. It was always in the shop.

I did see it on tv last evening.. manage to get a few photographs...

could i replace my ankle with a proper one...

also, battery cycles are measured by 0% to 100% being one full cycle.

if you charge from 50% to 100%, that is half of one cycle and you would have to do that twice to get one full cycle.

likewise if you were to charge from 20% to 80%, then you have completed 60% of one cycle.

that is why the store told you numbers that did not equal your charging numbers.

The best childhood toy we had was a set of army men lead mold. We would melt down our disfigured army guys and pour the lead into the mold. We'd set them up and plink them with our bb guns. Melt them down and do it again. It wasn't entirely safe... but loads of fun. We also had a wood burning set. A set of wooden disks about the size of a coaster and a soldering iron with different decorative tips. It was an arts crafty toy that we used to customize models and fry ants and basically burn most everything half close to a power source.

Dash Crofts, of 1970s music duo Seals & Crofts, dead at 85​

Sadly, I report that Crofts of Seals and Crofts has passed away. The two made some great music that wasn't rock but fit right in to the music scene of the early seventies. Summer Breeze, Diamond Girl, Hummingbird, and so many more tunes are burned into my soul. Thanks you so very much for touching me with your music.

I listened to a lot of their music as well. RIP and thanks for so many great tunes.
