    Marveling at this parking job.  The most amazing thing is there is only about 1/8 mile of run up to the building after a 90 deg turn.  Not sure how he managed to get up enough speed to make it this far.

    Misplaced my clamps, so I had to improvise.  Wood mount split while putting leg in (my fault, used wrong screw), so gluing it back together.

    Is there a supply shortage of Claussen pickles? Haven't seen them at Publix in months. Made a pit stop by Walmart also and no luck.

    He falls asleep fast.  There is a 90 deg turn 1/8 mile before the building.  If he missed that turn he would have gone across 6 lanes of an Interstate.  If the building didn't slow him, the barbed wire definitely wouldn't have.

    I did like the nice touch of covering up the logo of the trucks owner.

    I did have a concrete truck driver suffer a seizure behind the wheel. Ended that career for him. He nearly ran over a guy on the site and ran over a concrete wall that had been previously poured and stripped but not backfilled. A bit scary to say the least. Luckily the wall stopped his progress by catching his axle. Highly unusual.

    So you're saying he made the 90 degree turn, then hit the building?

    Well, that’s secure.  :angry:
     
    Went to a seldom-visited website today on my newish iPad, and it said, “Please sign in or create an account”.  I looked up my password, signed in, and the site came back with “The password you provided is not the password we have on record.  Change it now?”  
    Say wha?
    I hit the button “Not now”, and it logged me in anyway!  Bizarre.

    Correct, made the turn which would have required speed below about 7 mph, the smashed into the building approximately 700 feet later.

    You sure that wasn't a phishing scam??  I'd log on via another device and change your password immediately.

    Tonight PBS reported that people/companies who use the “Sign in using Facebook” feature on so many websites/purchases/ home automation found, today, during the “farcebook blackout” they lost communications, access to funds, and couldn’t even adjust their thermostats or lock/unlock their homes.
    Everyone needs to think about this, very carefully.
    If you think that’s bad, wait until you hear about what happened to the folks on PornHub…

    Recovering from Saturday, we did serve a little over 250 people Brisket , Pork and Greek Chicken Sliders, smoked mac and cheese, greek tortellini salad, French Fries and Roasted Veggies .

    Started cooking on Wednesday finished all up Sat about noon for transport to the venue, cooked on site the fries and veggies, prepped about 375 sliders an hour before serving, the rest were prepped as others being served. 5 People on the serving line, 3 for prep and staging, did it all in about 45 minutes. Saturday was about an 18 hour day and all I got was a couple pictures of the serving table before starting LoL 

    This was my last wedding, I am sticking with community events and pop-ups moving forward





    that's what most don't see..

    Hey @lkapigian. All looks great. 

    Wanted to make sure you are aware you have a filter engaged in you camera settings. If you’d like to remove it just give your phone to a kid and they will correct the situation. 😜

    Yeah I got on a weird filter once and had to have one of my kids fix it. The eye roll from them is priceless!

    Just saw where Ford is releasing the maverick in 2022. Base price is right at $20k and the lariat trim is $25k.

    It will be interesting to see how the sell. The biggest downfall I think is the 4.5 foot bed. I'd love to see a 6' bed on one.

    That and the towing capacity.  2000 lbs unless you get the tow package and all wheel drive, then 4000 lbs.
