Getting ready for the cruise, I left my daily carry knife at home...

Which explains your alias here!

Are you doing a Nile river cruise? Just curious why you'd need a knife for it.

I have carried a pocket-knife regularly for most of my adult life. My daily "carver" is actually a Leatherman mini, and I'm surprised how I often I use the other features of it. The little screwdriver fits many eyeglass screws, for example. The knife is short, but it is stout, and it handles most of the stuff I need. If not I have others.

I really miss having my mini tool when I fly somewhere. I always try to book on a carrier where I can check a bag for free, so I can bring my mini tool with me.

Shop called ... it's fixed ! ! !

I ok'd some recommended maintenance and should be getting it back next week ! ! !

Microsoft is a lost cause. Heck NOTEPAD and PAINT now have Copilot embedded in them! S24 Ultra and content to patiently wait for Samsung to innovate again (not holding my breath).

It is supposed to warm into the upper eighties but it is to get very windy. I've already logged a 24mph gust this morning. It will make for a miserable day to be outside.
With the watering restrictions and the lack of rain, compounded by the warm temps and drying winds, the yards about town are burning up. I've seen grass this distressed in mid August but never in early May.

I grabbed a takeout Chinese dinner tonight. Pork Lo mein with fried rice.

This isn't a risk... this is suicide!

I filled up my big mower this morning but I failed to check the price of the premium I was buying. I had to have it. I'm guessing it was around $4.60

This is the latest from these bozos.
I let the eBay seller know about it and they apologized and refunded my money, which was quite decent of them.

Thanks for replying.

I had little understanding of them. However, all four of them have all disappeared now. No idea why!

Anything if y0u delete fr0m G00gle ph0t0s it will permanently delete them 0ff y0ur device... Try t0 usb plug in his device 0n a c0mp, then d0 file transfer selecti0n 0n the 0nscreen menu, wait f0r the wind0w t0 p0p up and it sh0uld add int0 wind0ws 10 0r whatever y0ur 0s is then... after that will have y0u all0wed t0 file transfer the ph0t0s t0 the wind0ws ten, it is the l0ngest walk ar0und but tbh much safer then that then having g00gle ph0t0s erase them.

Bobby Cox, the former manager of the Atlanta Braves, has died at 84. He had a stroke in 2019 and had some cardiac issues.

Cox's legacy is impressive; in June 1990 he took the helm of a team in last place and led them to the World Series that year, though they lost to the Twins in seven games. But that began a record 14 consecutive division titles, five NL pennants, and a WS win in 1995.

RIP, Mr. Cox, and thanks adding so much to baseball's heritage. Condolences to your fans, friends, family and loved ones.

I smoked some bacon wrapped chicken livers for dinner. I like them fried better but it was a mother's day meal request. They are plenty easy to smoke but wrapping them proves difficult. I smoked them at 260° for an hour and forty five minutes. Internal temp was 170° but I wouldn't have minded the bacon being a bit crisper. There are enough left over for my dinner tomorrow. If I decide to heat them up, I'll bake them at 350° until I have crispy bacon. I'll likely eat them cold. I like them just as well hot or cold.

I'm trying to shed my winter hibernation fat. I always gain a few pounds across the winter with the idleness the cold weather creates. This year it was over ten pounds and I'm finding it alarmingly difficult to work it off.
