It really is a Ferrari experience at a quarter the price.

The first to mod is the first to find the weak links.  I know this, you know this, everyone knows this.  That’s the way the world turns

“Well, reduced traffic in general will reduce deaths, so why not add a few deaths back to the total by reducing truckers’ restrictions?”

That engine bay looks like a catfish pond in a drought. 

Shhhhh

And let’s not forget this one :

Okay I will use that excuse rather than damn it is cold outside and the dog is napping in front of the fireplace and that beer may expire if I dont drink it

I like most of you are worried about our current situation. I’m 73 and my wife is 75 so we are especially concerned. Having said that, in this particular post something bothers me even more. Precautions certainly. Shutting your life down should not be one of them. If you use just a bit of ingenuity I’m certain that…

I’m actually looking at this from the opposite perspective. I’m working from home until further notice and am planning on a much-needed wheel bearing replacement on my track car so I can drive it again now that it’s not snowy out anymore. I’m looking at this time at home as a way to work on things I haven’t been home…

I’m seeing a lot of this too. People basically saying, “Oh, yeah, it’s serious, but . . .” and only being willing to stop doing stuff they don’t care about and weren’t much doing anyway.

There’s a product called Liberty Mouse that’s a small turntable with walls. Put your mouse on it and you’re always active. Well worth the $24.

A former coworker of mine used to say that “Working from home is just napping and occasionally wiggling your mouse.”

I’ve worked from home for 20 years, I wouldn’t work in an office again. There are days where I work a lot of hours because there’s lots to take care of, other days not so much. Everything is measured, you either get the job done or you don’t => how you accomplish that is up to you.

Wasn’t there a Dilbert cartoon regarding working at home? IIRC, he asks if he owes the company 8 hours of work when at home. Dogbert reminds him that he only actually is productive for 2 hours... and since he’s not commuting, the environmental saving is worth an hour. So, ultimately, only one hour of work at home is…

My boss has been doing exactly as David describes for well over a decade and it works for him too. It’s not that he isn’t working, he is, he’s just doing it on a schedule that suits him and then remaining reachable.

One of the benefits of working from home is working sans pants.

If you have an analog watch with a seconds dial, place your mouse on top of it. The constant moving dial will trick the mouse as if it’s moving and stop your computer going into away mode.

Submarines are a lot like Batman, they are covered in rubber and are great fighters, but they are gadget toting stealth detectives at their core.
