Voltron Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 Progress, even smelly progress, is good Marc. 1
Augsburger Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 I would take smelly glue over staples on my gut any day. Even if it meant eating my sister in laws cooking. Speedy recovery Marc.
skullguise Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 Progress, even smelly progress, is good Marc. Indeed, this. And thumbs up for some nice pics Nate, though thumbs down to a failed test.....
Dreadhead Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 Indeed, this. And thumbs up for some nice pics Nate, though thumbs down to a failed test..... This too.
agile_one Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 Marc ... stinky progress is progress nonetheless. Swift recovery to the next, hopefully non stinky, milestone. Great pics of Old ironsides, Nate.
swt61 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 Hoping for a swift, if a little stinky recovery Marc!
Craig Sawyers Posted June 12, 2015 Report Posted June 12, 2015 This http://www.lfo.org.uk/tristan-und-isolde/. Awesome. 2
shellylh Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Notice that the trackpad on Tim's computer from 2010 wasn't working and figured out it was because of a swollen battery. I couldn't get a genius appointment until Monday so I went in and got someone to help me in 15 minutes. They took out the bad battery and recycled it for no charge. Luckily, it had no leaked (although I don't know how common it is for these batteries to leak or explode). WTF is up with Apple's batteries? This is the third one I've had (albeit over 10 years) that has swelled. At least you can get it fixed in the same day.
Voltron Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I didn't even make it to the parade! Lame of me. Going to the festival tomorrow at some point
skullguise Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 (edited) Took Andrew driving (he got his learner's permit a couple weeks ago), 3rd time and first in some minor traffic (side roads and grocery store parking lot). He's done alright on smaller, empty parking lot driving. This was pretty good, too.... Edited June 13, 2015 by skullguise 1
Dusty Chalk Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 I don't have a keyboard amp handy, so I plugged my Prophet 6 into my PRS MDT and made some noise. I have a stupid grin stuck on my face. 2
roadtonowhere08 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Main line drain blockage too far for a 35 foot snake to get to. When the washer floods your downstairs shower (and bathroom floor) with it's contents, alerting you of the blockage, cursing ensues. Contractor friend will come back tomorrow with big rooter, take off toilet, and run that sucker to the sea if need be. No flushing, kids get 30 second showers, and backlog of laundry will have to wait. Oh, and I used pretty much all the towels to clean up the flood. Fuck, fuck, and more fuck.
Voltron Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Sorry, man, been there, done that. Good luck. 1
n_maher Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Shit, piss and corruption. Quite literally. 1
roadtonowhere08 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I managed to get all five kids washed in under 5 minutes. But when I was toweling them off, one of the 1 year olds pulled the drain and I did not notice it. Apparently one downstairs shower full of soapy water = 1/4 upstairs tub water + 4" drain pipe capacity between the two. No flooding though. That was close

That was close Wow, so the water drained into the downstairs shower pan and didn't flow over? Good Luck there.
shellylh Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Sorry about the drainage issues, that's shitty. Cursing is definitely called for!
roadtonowhere08 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks for the empathy everyone. In other news, remember me mentioning getting an Amazon delivery from some guy in a red car? http://consumerist.com/2015/06/16/amazon-reportedly-working-on-new-shipping-service-that-turns-ordinary-people-into-couriers/ I KNEW it. Dear Amazon, No. NO. FUCK NO! How did this get past your lawyers? Sincerely, Common Sense
Hopstretch Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Got my eyes checked and I need glasses. Just for reading -- getting old I guess. Only ones I'd worn up to this point were the beer goggles, on a few occasions. 1
Grahame Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) Welcome to the club, Stretch. In (what seems like) no time, you'll be needing multiple task oriented pairs, getting used to progressive / varifocals, sitting on them and ultimately forgetting where you left them (hint: try the top of your head ). Enjoy the ride This does of course open up opportunities for Head-Case style consumption. No plebian frames for you. Something to match the new ride perhaps?http://www.porsche-design.us/Products/Eyewear/Reading-Tools/ Edited June 17, 2015 by Grahame 1
