When SNS wasn’t showing up at 8pm my time I went off to listen to opera and rest, so that’s why this is showing up so late.

Well bless his heart.
I have a chocolate-chocolate-chip-pecan recipe that creates some brownie flavor goodness but without the need for a deep baking dish. It’s on the bottom of a cookie jar (or rather, “biscuit barrel”— it’s from the UK) I have...
... yes?
They look pretty good-sized for their age. Is mom a largish cat?
Found a replacement cutting wheel for a pipe cutter I found in Dad’s old toolboxes... the thing had no brand name so it really was kind of a crapshoot. Also, this feels less like a brag and more like serendipity, but I got a nifty mason jar straw-lid, with a glass straw, for 99c (normally, the straw, lid and jar sold…
Still taking steps to prep— picked up some good Rustoleum paint for the beat-up red toolbox I want to restore (I’m wondering if I should pick up some metallic for the handles and clasps, which work fine but have a bit of a surface rust discoloration), as well as some dry-rub transfer letters for the preamp (good idea…
Sounds like a TV-B-Gone would be nice.

At the very least, restaurants and other food service types ought to know what they’re getting into.
Hey now, it’s quite possible that there’s some very old coat-hanger/knitting needle scars under that bad combover...
I didn’t know they made a LEGO ship-in-a-bottle. That’s cute!
A linen tester-type magnifer really helped, as well as good strong lighting. Annoyingly, some of the paint stripes were thin or chipped, so eventually I broke out the multimeter to test ones that were dubious, but mostly it was a matter of just eyeballing everything. A magnetic mat like this one from iFixit helped…
Getting more of the components for the preamp project— which turned rather sour. See, normally when you order large quantities of resistors, they’re on tapes, like this:
Well, Daylight Savings Time does start tomorrow...
It is kind of annoying, but I wonder if the bomb cyclone aggravated things— quite a few power and network outages were being reported in the East...
Ha ha. Try finding CD versions of stuff like Basil Rathbone reading Edgar Allan Poe stories, or anything by Wendy Carlos whose price hasn’t gone through the fucking roof.
