What are you doing right now?

Tacoma maintenance day got postponed... kicked my own ass timing and mowing (Front/Side of the house is a wicked hill). Truck work will have to wait until tomorrow... Currently; almost done with beer #3, finished off half a pizza and watching Trailer Park Boys
I love the Trailer Park Boys! I have watched every episode at least 3 times 🤣 I was at a Blue Jays game about ten years ago and was sitting just a few rows back from two of the three guys from the show (Mike Smith and John Paul Tremblay) who were there watching the game too. 🤓
 
Riding down the road in my monthly cash paid Accord 😆 on my way to Popeyes. A blonde woman shows up on the screen and the car asks me if I want it to play out loud.. yes...

It was a massive reaming job via text and the infotainment voice sounded just like her... 😆

The screen asked me if I wanted to reply....yes and it says start.....
I respond... " tell me you love me "
😁 😀 😃 the car asks if I really want to send it....yes.....

No reply after that ...
 
Doing another wine tasting, it’s 85 degrees right now in Niagara on the Lake! Amazingly warm for October

I’m watching the Toronto Blue Jays absolutely destroy the Yankees 11-0 in the 4th. Go Blue Jays. Also I had a Toronto Blue Jays hat on sale on eBay and sold immediately when they were up 9-0 it’s going to Ohio. They got a good deal genuine on field cap that retails for $45. My friend gave it to me because he ordered it and couldn’t wear it so he said so whatever I want with it.

Was able to get a used remote for my old late 90's Philips Magnavox VRZ255 VCR. Been in the family since my dad won it in a company party but lost the original remote in a move somewhere. Hooked up to it's 5th TV, an LG OLED that still has composite inputs.
Had a universal remote programmed to this VCR but most of the cool VCR features were tied to the factory remote only.

Re-Synced the time to internet time.

Went through unlabeled recorded tapes. Some were home videos taken with those honkin' camcorders, some TV recordings, some video game footage.
I'm surprised how well the A/V quality still held up with these 30 year old Maxell tapes. With poorer quality tapes the picture would totally blank out vs. a staticky picture since the VCR is hooked up to an LG OLED TV which does not make for good reviewing of certain tapes.

One of the few home VCR's to have an Eject button on the remote.

I had my dad over to help with the first coat of stain on the fence I recently put up. Tried out the new Wagner spray gun - it took some getting used to but made quick work of it once I got going. It's getting late in the season so I want to get the last coat on asap but work always seems to get in the way.

I listened to the first 4 innings of the Jays game and then watched the rest inside - I'm still sitting around re-watching highlights!
 
Eating breakfast in a hotel near the Quad Cities International Airport before I head to the auction site this morning to inspect trucks and trailers. First road trip with the Transit and it was flawless for roughly 450 miles yesterday. The in dash MPG display settled around 33.7-33.8 once I got on open road where I could set the cruise at 68-70. By my hand calculations it's within .2 MPG on every tank since I've owned it. This will cut my fuel expenses in half or better for my monthly trip up here. I'll be headed home this afternoon and will rack up another 450 miles on it.
