Consider that a lesson learned. On the upside, your farts will stink like you wouldn't believe. Great for annoying strangers in elevators.

Found Heaven on Earth (or at least in my freezer)
For a limited time only, and only sold in pints.
If you don't already know about this, try Blue Bell Coffee ice cream with hot fudge sauce. Not recommended for diabetics or people with low self control (this is why JJ is only sold in pints...).

Local hardware store. I’ll just leave this here…
Today I got out of the rut. Went to the gun store to do my paperwork. Picking it up tomorrow. Then to Walmart. I had three things on the list. As soon as I walked in I remembered I need bird seed. 40lbs of it. It will last about 2 weeks. Got the cottage cheese, the marshmallows and a ham. That was all. Got cat food and 38lbs of litter. Did you know that cat litter goes for almost a dollar a pound. 38lbs would fill one cat box. We have two. Then to get out of the store you have to go through the bakery area. Got a dozen donuts and cookies. Came home, put the groceries away and then played with the cats. Watched more Ukraine and golf videos.
I almost forgot. More news on the what ever that landed it the peoples back yard in Vegas. The property looks like a couple of acres. The owner of the house has a security camera pointing into the back yard. While the craft and beings were on the ground the video is blank. The witnesses reported that when they were looking at the craft and beings it was like looking through a light fog. One guy said when he made eye contact with one of the beings his body froze. The news station has overhead video and you can clearly see a round indentation in the ground. Wish they would land across the street.

I don't think the USB port(s) work on that machine. It's already got linux on it, on one of the partitions.
I think I've got everything useful copied over. I've found some *amazing* stuff I'd forgotten about. I'll have to see what I can post.
Are they enabled in the bios?

Yeah, but this is a 24 year-old machine.
morning breathing treatment, I'm not getting any better. 
Spent all day yesterday trimming MTB trails. Doing it again today. Super awesome that my employer gives me paid time to volunteer.
Met with the breathing machine rep to discuss what's going on with my lungs so he is going to submit a report to my pulmonologist as he thinks that I need to go in and have them put me under, intubate me, and run a scope down in me to see what they can find
I believe that the hate filled zealots are a minority. It's just that the hate filled zealots are LOUD.

I concur, the minority screams the loudest and not necessarily for the right reasons (no politics or morals implied here, so don't take it as such please).
More fun than anything has a right to be.

Growing up in Houston, Blue Bell was the go-to ice cream. Even better when you drive to Brenham and pick it up straight from the dairy...
We finally got together with my son and his family for dinner so hopefully things are squared back up between us.
Didn't buy this:

I met my cigar buddies down at the gazebo, but only engaged in conversation as my lungs are too messed up to be around any smoke, so it may be a long time before i can do any cigar or pipe smoking, if I ever get to do it again.

The old girl earning her keep.
I see the roof rack is acting as a sacrificial anode for the Brumby...
Can we see it?
There's got to be some fishing pictures coming.
Went fishing this morning. For my 13mm gear wrench. Under the dock.
Was installing some eye bolts for new boat mooring. Fumbled the wrench. Usually I'm not lazy and tie a string to them when I'm on the dock which is then tied to me.
Keep old hard drive magnets. Very useful for picking up wrenches at the bottom of the lake.

Day 52...
Ah this one is simple.
Served court document at door. I am being sued for CC non-payment. Lovely. I don't have enough to worry about... any lawyers out there?

What's CC (in this context).
Added to my recovery tools. Family gave me a Ryobi pole saw for my 64th trip around the sun. Takes the same batteries as the pruning saw I got a few weeks ago and extends to 2.9 metres (9.5'). Should be quite the handy beast.
I once used a Ryobi 40 v. mower battery to launch two 7 motor cluster rockets successfully.
The thing I despise about pole and chain saws is the time I spend keeping the teeth grinded sharp. What a PITA.
