  1. Heading out to someplace new in the morning. Antelope Butte in the bighorn range ( actually in Shell, WY where Kanye just bought another, larger ranch)

    https://www.antelopebuttefoundation.org/
     

    it’s another nonprofit hill where, currently I understand there is none but a yurt there as they renovate the lodge, so byo everything and no reason to stop.

    first trip of the year since the place we bought season passes still doesnt have enough snow to not fuck up your skis.

     

  2. Fun little issue today with the f150. Got in and the touchscreen is dead, not even a solid glow. Which meant no radio and no auto climate control and no blue tooth. 
    get home and do some YouTubing, find several videos discussing various infotainment interface issues from wont connect to phone to some buttons don’t work. All of them were resolved with a sync reboot accomplished by pulling the appropriate fuse for a few seconds and reinstalling, so I tried that and it worked. Yay, no embarrassing trip to the dealer to be told about some $500 fix as the techs and csas laugh behind my back. 

    but I’ll be damned if they didn’t put the fuses in a shit location to get to, behind the passenger door hinges. Had the seat rail digging into my back as I struggled to get eyes on the box to pull the correct fuse.

    Jaylen Garth (despite the fact Garth missed most of his senior year) 

    hmm i feel like i have seen him bitching about Demas losing spots due to missing his entire Sr year but sure...

    He did better than that. He said to ignore King’s senior year in favor of his better junior year.

  4. You ran an angle grinder on Christmas Eve night in your garage/driveway?  Lol. 
     

    I took mine to the wife’s office space and a couple days prior, put the pole on the base and the rim on the backboard.  Then  after the kids went to bed, retrieved the two parts and put them together along with the slide adjustor.  Even then, bolt assembly outdoors in Wyoming in late December is a pain in the ass because either you have gloves and no tactile sensation, or your hands are numb from the cold...and you have no tactile sensation.

    Just caught this.

    I copied the article and put it in an email to her, but just before I hit send I started shaking and sweating.   There is no fucking way in hell I'm sending that to her.  It will somehow be my fault, I just know it.  I will be called the Killer of Dreams, among other things.

    Believe it or not she's still working on the fucking prototype with some firm in the Bay Area.  Let them tell her about it.

    So send it to them under the guise of “hey make sure you work around any patents from this”
