I was like:  "btw, don't use the L Tech plasma cutter if you don't want a plasma arc cutting through your hand..."

Arguing with a client. They want a tech onsite tomorrow to help with some networking stuff. Wouldn't be me, but a co-worker. I asked for their essential business letter that they have prepared for our records.....They aren't considered essential, I know this..... It's a travel agency

Now they're really mad.

They can suck it

Everyone likes to justify to themselves why they are essential. Pisses me off.

We had a couple meals worth of tri tip leftover from the other night. Yesterday was quesadillas on the Blackstone. Which we ended up using the last of the tortillas. So we had to improvise a little tonight. We made jalapeño tri tip grill cheese sandwiches. Once you add meat is that still considered a grill cheese sandwich? Here's a few pics of not sure what to do with leftover tri tip.

If any of you have ever wondered what your Yeti (or any rotomolded cooler) look like before it was a cooler. Well here it is my friends.

Getting creative. Spaetzle, sauerkraut, chicken, chili garlic paste, and hot sauce.
Heated/sauted  in butter...

Lunch for two from 1 egg, 1/2 cup flour and a few tablespoons of milk. Have lots of fermented sauerkraut...
SWMBO gave a nod of reserved approval. 

Now is a good time to try out new flavors and techniques, right?

So SWMBO went to Publix for our weekly trip while I worked from home watching our daughter (thank God for Disney+ btw), they have their Maple Bourbon Hams on sale for Easter. Asked to pick one up for the 3 of us as we’re probably just doing Easter at home this year and she came home with an 10.5 lber. 

Who’s got a good leftover ham recipe I can try the week after Easter?

I love Yankee bean and ham soup with the leftovers from a honey baked.

Potato soup is great with some diced ham, too (as are breakfast omelettes).

Hot ham and cheese sandwiches with barbecue sauce, mustard based by preference. Toast the bread and assemble the sandwich then nuke it about 20 seconds. I guess it could be done in a skillet ala grilled cheese.

Slept most of the day unfortunately.  Pretty exhausted after the last round of shifts. Got up and started hand planning the high spots on my table...tomorrow I plan on cutting the mortises for the leg tenons, and then flip and smooth the bottom for level fit.

Hat's off to you Sir, for hand-planing a table-top (I should do the same, my workbench has about an 1/8" dip in the center).

This kind of project is why I have about 60 clamps.

ps - f little RSKL 56 micrometer tool.  Just thought I'd throw that in because, as he says, I'm probably drunk right now, and really crazy and stuff.  Unstable genius.  Yadda yadda.

@Botch. 
I had plans to fabricate a router sled to make life easier.  However my spooling motor on my wire welder gave up the ghost...
So old school I went ..its been relaxing. And it's nice to have the shavings vs the dust; as I'll use the shavings for nest material in my wood duck boxes

Years ago we used them to gauge Rectum thickness.

Assumed alcohol infused rants were the cause, but the history on your black RAM shows “confiscated in drug raid”, and sold at auction.  Just sayin....

Well, it's a 2 wheel drive 6 cylinder, so I think you are a pretty lousy PI.  Got the year right at least.  And the country.  Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then.

Also, if you want to start a war with a seasoned hacker, you probably don't know what you're in for.  Just giving you fair warning.  If I were you, I would not want to go there.  Just a fair warning, but do what you will.

Hi Carey How do you like that chutney? It's South African and pretty much a staple in our house.. Great with curry.

Just replaced a water intake valve on a 10+ year old refrigerator....

Covid just saves me about $220 by doing it myself.
