You're right, 18' vs 18". D'oh!

Good catch!

An 18 inch cord won't get you very far.

And earlier today I was tying up a long electrical cord with a zip tie and when I snipped the excess tie with the scissor, I somehow managed to also snip off a good chunk of flesh from my index finger knuckle. I'm so dangerous with any tool at all in my hands.

At least you know/remember how you cut yourself

Hey, that's a new gash. Did I already clean it? That why I started with merthiolate solution. Leaves a very red indication that I did clean it

Don't I know it. Went to a wedding yesterday. Did the car ride. Muscles felt tight. Lot's of standing there. Everything hurts. Just about managed to shower and dropped into bed. Like my legs ran a marathon. Go to the gym but these long events require a different level of endurance.

Yay! I remembered my list and my bags today!

You're kidding, then you must have bad seats.

I never have liked the MB seats, but these days it doesn't seem to matter where I'm sitting. My hip joints just tighten up an make it hard to walk when I first stand up.

In my last car a C-class sport komp the seats were very stiff and the suspension rock hard so I know where you're coming from some of the way.

The side bolsters are what bother my hips. It's better if I take my wallet out of my back pocket, but a long (1hr+) ride still leaves me sore.

I did a tear-down and reinstall of our front door smart deadbolt lock on Friday afternoon, which was enough standing/labor to put me into cramping pain Friday night into Saturday. My Apple Watch's exercise tracker reported that I was walking/standing for at least a minute for 24 hours straight trying to walk the cramps out!

I just saw a mid-late 1990's Trans Am with *historic* NY State license plates on it! Geez, am I getting old.....

I feel ya! That's why I sold my Cayman S and bought the E9x M3 - Comfort.

At least that's the excuse I gave my wife. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Yes. One of the well-off farmers in our town bought one as a 16th birthday gift for his punk son.

Eastbound and down, loaded up and trucking. We're gonna do what they say can't be done. We've got a long way to go, and a short time to get there. I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run.....
