What are you doing right now?

[Zee09]

Lightening just blew out my modem. No internet!

Did you have it on a surge protector including the cable.... sucks

 

[walterjay]

The cable is not on a surge protector as far as i can tell. Power surge protected but it blew out the small 12v transformer. Put another transformer on that i had. Modem lights up but lights not flashing and no signal. Waiting to talk to Armstrong but they are all backed up with problems

You can usually drive them to Rising Sun and get a new one... But I went non cable 5 years ago... T-MOBILE

Hope you’re feeling better soon.

Appreciate it! I'm really hoping to get lined out and then get back to work...I'll be honest, this sitting around home is really getting to me.

I was thinking of going to see that. Thanks for the heads up about it starting slow. I might wait for it to be available on disc.

It's an ok movie, but you can tell it didn't have a huge budget and the script was a little weak in places. It's a good movie to watch at home

Thumbs up from @AutoMechanic ?? Let his internet blow out and see how he feels. Was watching a really good show when it happened.

He needs a wife to tell him how to better spend his time than watching TV.

Only a couple of us know where Rising Sun is. Everyone else thinks it's Japan.

If the surge burned out the transformer, it probably popped a few caps or burned a resister too. Belay that. @walterjay proved me wrong.

Internet back on. Got it sorted out with Armstrong.

I’m getting ready to eat some tacos from Taco Bell. Man I don’t want to work tomorrow lol. But tomorrow is when I’ll pay off all my credit cards because that loan is coming in tomorrow.

It's always great to eat at midnight

Lol. I know not my preferred dinner time but most likely if I ate dinner too early I’d need a midnight snack anyways.

Watching European news. It surprised me that many of the EU countries put on red white and blue lighting displays on buildings in recognition of Independence Day as a precursor to their own becoming Democracies or Republics. The UK ambassador to the UN was explaining why the UK Flight Demo Team (like our Thunderbirds or BAs) are putting on shows in the US this Summer with Red, White, and Blue smoke streams to highlight our alliance.
France is our oldest ally in the world, so it's kind of funny that we always have little disagreements with them over stuff. When I was working FMS before I retired, the French Navy officers took part in our 4th cookouts and invited us to their Bastille Day parties. They were always saying how they loved the US as their best ally.

You need to go to sleep. Groggy mechanics are dead heads you know

Been getting blasted by storms
Electric on and off... I'm glad I got a fresh whole house surge protector as the old one was about 30 years old.

 

[AutoMechanic]

I’m listening to fireworks off in the distance and can see them pretty faintly. I don’t mind but it maybe late for some people so hopefully they don’t carry on all night.

My sisters up near Frederick are texting the same. It looked like it might rain here, but nothing happened this far South.
Brother's power has been out since about 9pm Sat. and they say the downed poles won't be fixed until Monday night. He's in Glen Burnie. He complained he has to disconnect the AC from the genny to make coffee. LOL. I told him we grew up camping, where's his camp stove and percolator?

How hot?

She has a nice tight body with a nice butt, 5'7", but has stupid tattoos however. She is a social drinker and frequents pubs. Divorced, made $145k in management last year. Wants a BF but is old fashioned and only wants a man that makes more money than her. Ever since her DUI she wants to go with us everywhere being she has limited driving privileges.

 

[Zee09]

No longer watching those YouTube videos with Europeans eating like pigs....really and the youngsters have foulest mouths ever....

Yeah stereotypes for sure but what goes around, comes around...
The women are just as foul mouthed as the men...

Yes many are good folks too
