  1. Decidedly unsatisfying puzzle morning. The bird on Wordle was nice, but the double strikeout in Quordle was frustrating. Too many double letter options. And then connections was a tricksy little hobbit.

    Bidet Meta Threas

    I have a bio bidet 2000 in the master bath and Luxe Bidet Neo 85 on every other toilet in the house and guest house. The Luxe is basic, no frills, no heater, etc. I catch a lot of flak about being hoity-toity when we have guests, but that’s just an opportunity to evangelize about hygiene. As someone wiser than me said upthread (or maybe it was on the shag), when you step in dog crap in the yard, do you wipe it off with a paper towel and go on about your day? Of course not. You go to the hose and wash it off. I can’t believe I walked this earth for over 40 years with a poop-smeared backside before discovering the shag’s bidet thread. We’re not barbarians, people.
  3. This is the exact scenario in a scandal currently rocking ABQ PD. DWI squad was in cahoots with a local DWI defense lawyer. Apparently he would pay cops not to show up. Hundreds of pending cases have been dismissed. One of the cops had been MADD officer of the year. The best articles are from the ABQ Journal but they’re all behind a paywall. https://www.koat.com/article/albuquerque-dwi-officer-missed-court-dates/46914361

  9. I could care less. 😑
  10. Not so trivial and VERY surly. Fellow travelers who check their bags make me surly. I've been traveling heavily internationally for over 30 years. I know the drill. I can go a month, from boardroom to beach, with one carry-on bag plus my office backpack. We just finished up a week in Costa Rica. We had a great time. We rented a huge Air bnb on the beach in Santa Teresa, and had a wonderful time. Santa Teresa is one of my favorite places in the world. Before we left, I warned people not to check bags. I told them we were going to the beach, and minimal clothes are required, plus we could do laundry. I even sent them the clip from Up in the Air where Clooney tells Kendrick how idiotic she is for bringing a huge suitcase. Did they listen? No. Not any of them. Despite a lifetime of watching me effectively travel with no checked bags, my three adult kids, all three spouses, and my wife all checked bags. I give my oldest daughter a pass because they have a baby. Yesterday we get to Liberia airport and there's a small private plane crash on the runway. Nothing major, no injuries, but it shut the airport for 3 hours. No incoming or outgoing flights. There's only one runway, so all of the flights stacked up. My oldest and her husband and daughter were able to get out on SWA. My son and his wife were able to get out on SWA. But the flight to IAH for my wife, my daughter, SIL, and me was cancelled. I scrambled and got us on a flight today. And got a hotel for the night. And got a driver to take us to the hotel and back to the airport. The problem was that the other three (wife, daughter, and SIL) checked bags. I waited for 2 hours for them to get their bags before we could go to the hotel. The bags never came. I stayed on hold for an hour with United baggage services who told us they couldn't help us. We got here and I had to stay in line to check in and try to figure out where the bags are. They're not even my bags and, frankly, I hope they are lost forever. Untold anxiety from all, hours and hours of waiting. For absolutely no reason. There was no reason to check bags. I'm sitting here with my bags, wearing clean clothes. They're all miserable, wearing the dirty clothes from yesterday and super stressed about their stupid bags. And I'm the asshole.

  15. Saving documents on OneDrive. Unless you specifically tell it which subfolder to put it in, it goes into the ether. Somewhere, somehow it’s saved, but it’s sure as hell not in the root directory or the Documents folder.
