Check out this streak
- After some schmucks stole our car’s catalytic converter I took the car to a local mechanic to see what it’d cost to fix. They quoted me over $4k. I’m much too cheap for that nonsense. So I bought the parts myself, and just completed the work tonight. All in, it cost me about $400 and a couple hours wrenchin’ with my dad. Not a bad deal!
- Relatedly, I’ll be installing a couple security cameras outside the house. Just acquired a spool of cat 6 cable, some reolink cameras, and will be trying a proper PoE setup after my current wifi cameras failed spectacularly.
- Oh yea. An election happened. And… what an indictment that is of us Americans. We are a stupid, angry, hateful bunch of people. We need help.
- We binge watched Disclaimer this week. It was really good. My only gripe is that it was maybe a bit too graphic at times. It took me a bit to recognize Kevin Kline, who’s less hilarious than in his usual roles.
- I went to a bar that had live music. The artist started singing a song with the lyrics “who put PCP in the lobster chowder?”. It was a catchy little tune, so I had to look it up, and was shocked to discover that this was a real story that happened while filming The Titanic in 1999.
