My wife wasn’t expected to make it six months. The doctors don’t know, people don’t come with an expiration date stamped on their foot. It’s been over eight months for my wife. She isn’t getting better but she is hanging in there. She is getting better in one respect, her pain is pretty much gone now. I haven’t given her morphine in two months now.7 points

So, the GTI project, since It's in the yard not the garage, requires element protection. I keep a roll of that stretchy saran wrap tape stuff to wrap things up to keep stuff out. Sometimes I wad a bunch of it up and stuff it in a hole to keep stuff out. Did I mention I got the transmission back in without a jack? Yeah, don't want to do that again soon. On to last weekend putting the starter back in. All painted up shiny, a couple bolts, easy peasy. Right up front where it's easy to see - that - what's that? Something shiny in behind the pressure plate? Apparently I left a huge wad of that saran wrap stuff stuffed in a hole inside the transmission. Only took about a 2 hours worth of cussing condensed into the hour it took to fish it out.3 points

Abbott had a factory next to the Great Lakes naval Training center in Michigan. They collected urine from the recruits to make a clotting agent for hemophilia. If you were a recruit back in the sixties you did your share of guarding the head. They had to make sure nobody tampered with the urinals.3 points

Had a question about BobCAD, so I go to their support site. Pawing through the FAQs, I don't find what I'm looking for. I want to configure the postprocessor to include tool info in the header, so that I can look at a program on my machine and know what cutter the program was written for. It's a simple postprocessor tweak, but each post uses slightly different syntax. Then I notice the chat thingie, so I click that. The guy who does all their training videos responds. I ask, "How do I include tool information in the posted code?" I don't care if it's in the header or at the tool changes. Fagor 8055i and Centroid posts". Now I was expecting him to take a couple of minutes to get back to me or tell me he'll email me the info. Nope. "Call support".2 points

@Airehead That should be "12" slices of bacon. (Gotta allow for the ones you eat while you're making the eggs)2 points

So you don't like the egg white, seems indistinguishable from any other part of the egg white to me.2 points

I grew up in that part of the country. Sounds like Houston is getting ready for the hit. As I mentioned earlier, friend of mine here is from islands off the Louisiana Coast.2 points

I can't wait for the I have decided I don't like humanity parody. But I totally agree with you on humidity. Lack of humidity is one of autumn's many charms.2 points

I'm sure it was covered in Twilight, dude. Good on you, though, for not knowing the details.2 points
