One of the two happiest days in a man's life, the day he gets his boat. The other happiest? The day he gets rid of it.

My dads boat doesn't have that setup, but every time I borrow his boat on Lake Erie, it sucks about 40-45 gallons of expensive marina E0 to be out on the water.
I know a guy with 3xF350’s … he’s invited me to go fishing a couple times - but I’m weary that his 550 gallon tank needs my Exxon card 😜 … so I always have other plans …

Boats are hard on gas.
My Hewescraft Ocean Pro 240 only has a single Honda 250 on it, and eats plenty of gas.
A typical fishing trip is over 200 gallons.
 
No amount of renovations can resuscitate a dead mall. Sears closed and a couple stores about to close out. Majority of the spaces is being converted to office space and having furniture places (ugh mattress places) and inflatable jump houses to fill space just reeks of death.

The bronze koi inside the former Sears is still there though.

Something super random: Microwave antenna 20+ years still standing. History time:

Back in the late 90's telephone companies were trying to compete in the cable television market. They can't piggyback wired coax cable infrastructure so they used microwave frequencies to transmit digital cable over the air. A receiver 'cable box' receives the signal then outputs to a TV.

Story time:

This antenna hanging the top of the mall was used for a demo television setup in the former telephone store. We would go to the mall to pay our telephone bill in-person and they would have a CRT TV hooked up to a Zenith set-top box with banners and flyers stating crystal-clear TV, all digital picture and whatnot. We had a system installed at our place. Didn't last long and the cable competitor was coming out with digital cable later on. You could tell who had this system installed with the antenna overhanging the roof with it pointing west for some reason. I guess they had the transmitter up in the mountains up West. We took down our antenna it looked like an eyesore. Cool piece of history tech, didn't last long.
