Can’t find any meaningful news. The very worst and biggest tax on Americans, being driven by the worst president of the United States in history (the criminal nancy Pelosi) sure to be signed by the worst circus monkey in history (Obama) was, at last I looked, still not a sure thing. Pick up the phone nad make some damned calls.
I sweated like a pig in pursuit of the elusive auto-opening lathe door. I received a mild sunburn to the head. I drove over three hundred miles in the Van hunting parts, and helped hang an 1100 lb chuck in yet another lathe. I spent the better part of an hour trying to explain N dimensional geometry to a customer. (in order to use machine tools, you need to understand N dimensional geometry, because it allows you to understand where tools are and what they do, and how they can interfere with other equipment) I might as well have been trying to explain Heisenberg to a wombat. I set myself on fire torching an access hole in an old electrical panel that is being dismantled. I used the ladies room in the customer’s facility because the mens room was occupied, and I made it unfit for human habitation for the next thirty-seven years. I also scratched and popped a zit on my leg while I was doing so, and bled like a stuck pig all down the side of the commode. Which meant i ended up having to get down on my hands and knees and wipe off a crapper in a factoryt bathroom. Nice. Then I arrived home to find a second ups notice on the door of my house, and call ups to discover it’s from a company that wants it’s erroneously shipped parts back, and I’m damned if I am going to ship them back until they send me the RIGHT stuff, and I have no time to do this anyway, and they never TOLD me they were arranging a pickup or I would have made some effort or shipped them myself, and I finished the air in the truck only to discover that the radiator cap has been loose for god knows how long, undoubtedly spraying collant all ovber hell as I drove, and I now need to monitor the damned thing to make sure that’s the source of the leakage and not some OTHER hole.
Today I expect the same thing, more or less. But at least I STARTED today with a splitting headache. That’ll make it all better.
