I’ve heard of them but haven’t seen one… I suspect that they are good if you have back issues….

Geek Leak. Fisherman’s Pal. Bucket under the desk...

Were I so inclined, there are options.

“A flash of inspiration” is the only way to describe it.

Nice work.

I once had a flash of inspiration to do some work. I killed it before it could take hold.

Good morning. Happy Friday Eve!

Help! I’ve fallen and my teeth are stuck!

It was 46 fs when I walked The Princess this morning. I actually like this kind of weather but I’m a little concerned about the other shoe dropping. I also think the trees are fooled as I’m seeing some leaves turn color. It is still August, right?

Yesterday we took the estate 40” TV over to Best Buy. They wanted $30 to recycle it, which the estate paid for. That’s New York for you. It’s illegal to NOT recycle an old TV but you have to pay to do it. I’m glad we’re leaving soon.

Today’s Wordle was another “stare for a long time, then an obvious solution finally pops into my brain.” I wonder how it might have gone if I hadn’t chosen a word 2 that didn’t have one of the letters I had found in word 1.

Good Morning!

They are staying with guesses for cooler weather and some rain for the weekend... it sounds like a nice break if it materializes...

Today was another use of a ‘sacrificial’ (already won) word for row two... it paid off...

Good Morning all...

Hhhmmm... not much to say at this point. Started getting some of the pneumatics in for a Halloween prop I’m building. Worked on the code for it for the controller I bought. Will probably break out the Halloween decorations and start getting things set up on Monday... If they can already have Christmas stuff for sale... I can put up Halloween stuff.

Yeah, Monday is not too early…. at least it is the next one up, I’ve seen Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas stuff out for sale for weeks now…

Project sounds intriguing….

Last year the local Home Depot had Halloween decorations about 20 feet from Christmas decorations.

I’m not a big fan of celebrating the night evil holds full sway, even “in good fun”, but having both sets of decorations in the store at the same time was really disheartening.

That’s a pretty cool prop! Do you control it from your phone or laptop?
