Walked up to the cliff, and jumped!

Posting here is part of the "personal accountability" motivation recommended for theclinically insaneIronman competitors.
Yesterday, I picked up my (first) electric car (a hybrid with the option to run on BEV mode for 25 miles).
Today, I floored it shortly after a green light. Because a modified, noisy Audi was trying to catch up.
Visited my surgeon and he is very happy about my shoulder reco. Me too. He is quite interested in rocketry so I gave him an Estes kit and a lend of the Stine book. Maybe he might be along to a club launch if his interest is piqued sufficiently.
Oh for pity's sake! If I remember right, you've mentioned grandkids. Your grown sons need to grow up!High Tension between my 2 kids who are mild enemies. Arguing over who is going to take me out to eat and when for fathers Day.
it is their spouses who hate each otherOh for pity's sake! If I remember right, you've mentioned grandkids. Your grown sons need to grow up!
Lock 'em in a room. 2 spouses enter, 1 spouse leaves!it is their spouses who hate each other
If it's your kids who make their argument your problem, then it's they who need to grow up. If that means standing up to their spouses (and maybe getting them to grow up) so be it.it is their spouses who hate each other
I got a steering wheel cover for my 2yo new car.
Hey look, I’ve been wanting an EV for decades now. And my previous one was 14 years old. I’m a little giddy. Still absorbing this. I’ll stop talking about it very soon now.
Sign the closing docs on our new place. Keys in the morning!
Rocket stuff is ready for the move…

America is not the greatest country in the world....again as we see that China is the leader and will be in the future.
But China's wages are also growing fairly rapidly. If multinationals are looking only for low wages, they might not go there anymore. And the stability brought by an authoritarian and pro-business regime is a double-edged sword as more people start looking at human rights abuses. And on a side note, an American banking executive was just jailed for intervening in what looked like a street fight but was actually an off-duty cop beating up a civilian. You get enough of that kind of incident and you won't have as many people excited about a tour of duty in China.manufacturing moves to follow cheap labour. its the only variable that can be easily altered.. Countries know & take advantage fo that fact, hence why: cloths in Bangladesh, car parts in Mexico, electronics in China.. China now, has their manuf. sector set to be teh cheapest / dominant labour pool to ensure their growth..
What did you buy and did you install a dedicated 240 volt line for it?I got a steering wheel cover for my 2yo new car.

I assume your trap is similar to the bucket/sock/beer bottle/cheese trap. The advantage of mine is that you have to drink the beer first .
