We could use some rain here in Vegas...it's too damn hot!

It might be a gamble, but I wouldn't bet that will happen.

I saw what you did there! [emoji106] [emoji122] [emoji1]

That's St Swithin's day and it falls on the 15th. If it rains on that day, it will rain for forty days or repeat the weather of the 15th for forty days.

I am back to using my LG G3. A local shop fixed the screen issue I was having with the tearing and fading out. They also fixed my tablet and my mother's old laptop. Kept the tablet and repurposed the laptop for myself. The timing was perfect because I am going to Colorado with my family in a few weeks for a vacation.

We had this, too. Neighbor's kid couldn't figure out how to use it to feed our cats.

This is the only can opener I use.. Great for construction workers too. Ever try carrying a big ole can opener in your pocket all day? Irritating, so the P-38 is a blessing

Sometimes lo-tech is the best tech. I'll be you never had to open a support case for that thing malfunctioning.

Looks like I may need a new battery for Dngrswife's SUV... 13.7 volts when running, drops down to 10.6 volts when trying to start. This is after a "full" charge with the charger last night.

I doubt the new stereo persist is that heavy a load.


Meanwhile, I could use a decent OBD2 diagnostic for my phone... I have an ELM reader, and Torque Lite isn't quite there for me.

Sorry to hear that...having to buy a new battery sux.

At least it sounds like you are catching it before it completely dies.

 

[Dngrsone]

Yeah. I did find out what is wrong with the AC, at least... That's only $105 for parts.

The kid and his gf have been talking about getting a cat/kitten lately. He just sent this picture and the text said "we adopted a cat!". Only my kid, that's my boy. HAHA [emoji23] [emoji23]

It's still better than The worst cat...

Stupid dog... licking my hand, letting me pet him, and he's growling at me.

He's going to get a smack on the snout the next time around.

Went to urgent care today to get some medication for an ear problem.

Suddenly they don't like my heart rate and i'm now half-naked on a gourney hooked up to machines and IV's, getting ready for a cat scan. WTF. I was about 5 minutes from going through the machine when they decided I'd just been breathing weird due to bad posture combined with my weight, so they let me go.

 

[Dngrsone]

Overreact much?

 

[bjacks12]

Yeah, they turned that dial from 0-11 real fast.

It's like the president giving the launch order the moment a civilian aircraft takes off from Pyongyang.

Merry Christmas everyone!

It's been stood in the foreign teachers' common room for the last seven months, and someone finally decided to throw the thing outside.

Happy Friday y'all.

Sounds like a promo for Con Edison, or any local power company that digs to install pipe, cable, etc.
