    ...they aren't very smart. My favorite is when they refer to them as "Dr." on the weather channel. Even medical doctors have to be more than 50% correct to keep their jobs.

    I almost took a job out there. There's an old fish hatchery that was turned into a bird sanctuary. I didn't take that job.

    It is pretty cool. I was thinking just have lift cylinders and a water proof skirt between the top of the bed and the bottom of the topper.

    I set up my "office" out on the 3 season porch today. A little humid with the rain from Nate but temps are in the low 70s. Everyone left me alone which was nice.

    I know all about those gyroscopic inertial systems in both the plane and missile.

    Part of the reason I did that. Insurance agent explained “most companies only insure employees belongings to $250” If something happened I could see a $250 check and “you should be able to do your job with $250 in tools” I had over that in one Craftsman toolbox!

    $0 had multiple lines. Cars, homeowners, life, umbrella.:thumbsup:

    I did break a $4000 bench top multimeter at the hospital (reacted badly to hitting the floor) owned up to it, they couldn’t fix it, but the replacement unit is much better! Most of the tools at the hospital are adequate to do the job. Some are junk!

    I LOVE EGG NOG!! I could live on that shit!:woot::yes::yay:
    I don’t know about the chocolate milk part:notsure:
