en480c4 Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 Installed a Nest E. I had to relocate where the wire came out of the wall, patch/clean up the drywall and paint before it could go in. That said, it was a very easy install. I definitely prefer the clean look to the original Nest... It fits in well with the white in-wall speakers and wood work and is more subtle/less techy looking. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellylh Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Whole city (and University) was shut down because of freezing rain - this is the coldest/wettest weather I’ve experience in my 17 years in Houston. We had a job candidate here that I was in charge of. I managed to find a way for the interviews to happen and a place to eat lunch and dinner but it wasn’t easy. It was like a ghost town (which is better than every out driving around and getting into accidents). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdipisReks1 Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 So, I did lots of things today, but the thing that really stood out was my going "what the fuck?" One of my speakers was off its base. It happens to be the speaker that is next to where the cats get catnip. Could cats really move a 70+ pound speaker? I know that it isn't that hard to move, given that it's on spikes on a polished granite (I've knocked it off the base a couple times myself), but really? Cats? I'm 99.99% sure that no human touched the speaker today, until I put it back where it belonged. Speaker undamaged, but really. Cats? Cats. CATS!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsavitsk Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Nope. They are claiming to have delivered them. But I am skeptical as I was home, and it seems highly unlikely that in the 20 minutes between delivery and my checking that someone, in broad daylight, in front of a busy elementary school, picked up three large boxes containing 50lbs of steel plates* and walked off. The overnight was from Mouser. UPS rescheduled for Monday, but Mouser seems to have stepped in to move it up to Saturday. * I'm taking a welding class! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdipisReks1 Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 That sounds like a "I couldn't be bothered to carry the boxes," rather than a phantom welder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swt61 Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Myself as well. The combination of welding and woodworking opens up lots of furniture building options. But now I can get Doug to teach me! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Sawyers Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Shit - we were in London today, to (a) The Cezanne Exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery (b) eat lunch and (c) go to a first rate play with Juliet Stevenson. But we only live an hour away. Seriously - if you are in the UK and have some spare time - come visit. Near Oxford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have an office in London now, so it was an easy stop over for a couple of days. On my way to Monte Carlo in the morning for more meetings on Monday and Tuesday. The human circus was quite good. They could all be Olympic athletes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
