  1. Went to see it today. IT WAS AWESOME . One of those rare sequel's that's as good if not better than the first movie. I would not be shocked if it beats Jurassic World Dominion next week. We might go see it again too. Went to the British invasion car show today. Was a few oddballs there this year. A '93 Rover 220 coupe that the owner recently imported to the USA. A Lotus Elite hatchback was there. The fellow that owns a 1930's Rolls Royce finally got it painted after years of showing it in it's original patina'd paint, it looks great again. Did pretty good garage saleing yesterday. Got a B&D hedge trimmer with battery and charger for $15 so that completes my B&D outdoor power tool set. Nice to know Walmart could give two about their employees and customers health. Overheard an employee telling one of their coworkers they have COVID and were forced to work because Walmart only gives them 4 days to recover otherwise they get fired on their 5th day off. It sounded like she was going to cough a lung out. On top of that before I overheard that conversation I was about 4 feet from her in the same aisle, I thought maybe she just had allergies because of all the pollen in the air here. Wife called Walmart when we got home and was told by that store's manager about Walmart's new COVID employee policy. Knock on wood that we hopefully don't come down with COVID now.
  2. Back is feeling a little better. Still sore in the one spot though and it doesn't help when I sleep I roll over to my left side which inflames it. I can't wait to be done with the muscle relaxers, they work good on the inflamed muscle but also on the rest of my body too, and I get exhausted from light work. At work we went to 4 10's schedule which gives us Friday's off. Started this week and I enjoyed getting today off and am looking forward to getting some stuff done I couldn't last weekend since my back is better. Hopefully the test goes well and we stay on this schedule for the foreseeable future.
  3. I bet Roger. It's been a long time since I've been through Cleveland but I've seen plenty of dashcam videos on YouTube and it seems like it is just as bad as Cincinnati traffic. I'll never forget the last trip coming back from Tennessee and that stupid idiot going 45mph on I-75 crossing over 4 lanes in front of us. Thank God the tanker truck driver behind us had good reflexes and brakes. There was a drive-by shooting in the neighborhood behind my Dad's Saturday night. Not 100% sure what happened as it didn't make the local news but according to neighbors an empty car parked on the street got shot up by a dark colored vehicle. A few weeks ago catalytic converter theives struck the neighborhood. A week before that police responded to reports of someone randomly shooting a gun. Last week some kids were going through people's mailboxes. That neighborhood is not as safe as it used to be.
  4. Not sure how or when but I jacked my back up some time this week. That killed our Memorial weekend plans since our boss gave everyone Friday off too, we were going to do some day tripping but I mostly laid in bed or on the couch till today. Since the pain wasn't going away the wife took me to an Urgent Care after we did a little grocery shopping this morning. I told the wife "you sure had this planned out this morning didn't you", she got me there just as they opened up lol. The Dr that was on staff this morning had me do a urine test just to make sure it wasn't a kidney stone and then he felt my back and felt my muscle was swollen and knotted up so gave me a shot and a couple of prescriptions and told me no heavy lifting for a while.
  5. Blue I caught and released an Eastern Bluebird at work a week and a half ago.
  6. Here's a fix https://www.androidpolice.com/how-to-fix-lg-phones-t-mobile-ims-issues/amp/ Another thing LG is getting out of the cell phone business so it might be a good idea to get a different brand such as Motorola, Samsung, Apple etc...

    NASCAR news

    I wish ESPN/ABC ran the race live instead of tape delay after the Indy 500 and before the Charlotte 600 like NBC did when they had F1 coverage. It was nice waking up Sunday morning and getting a quick racing fix.
  8. Was one of those days...my car was dead this morning, wouldn't turn over then it went dead, dash lights and all. Thinking it's either battery, battery cable or alternator. Then while at work I get a Ring notification and it's the neighbor's buddy who's banned from the property but they don't give a , and why should they as rules and laws don't apply to them they only apply to decent, God fearing, law abiding citizens. Have a good night y'all.
  9. On our anniversary the wife and I went to see The Lost City. It was hilarious. Speaking of the wife a coworker and I pranked her the other day by putting a bunch of empty boxes in her car . We took separate cars to work that day because I had to go mow a yard after work and I get out earlier than she does. The day before she went to Wendy's and got herself some lunch and didn't get me anything so the other guy that works in the assembly building said we should prank her for that lol. Her coworkers had a good laugh when they all got out. I hope in the next election Toledo can get a mayor that will actually do something about all the crazy that's going on instead of just forming committee's or hiring non police goobers and giving them fat paychecks for doing nothing. Shootings almost every single day. Hooligan gangs on ATV's and dirt bikes taking over city streets. Last night street racers shut down multiple intersections and caused accidents. It's sad when the highway patrol has to come in and try and clean up the city's mess. Can't wait to move out into the countryside.
  10. If these Gen Y Z or millennial's, or whatever they want to be called, don't get their act together the USA won't make it to 2100. Don't want to work or the ones that do think $15-20/ hr should be starting pay for entry level jobs. Giving them advice is like talking to a brick wall too as I found out earlier this week as they think they know everything.
  11. Happy belated Birthday. Hope it was a good one. Was going to do maintenance on the mowers yesterday but we had lunch with a friend and lost track of time. Didn't get home till 4:30. I'll just get to it next weekend, hopefully the weather will be warmer by then.
