Thanks for that. Turns out I can get 5tb for about $100 locally and they all seem to come with backup software. Perfect for my needs.

My laptop is getting wonky. I'd like to back it up, preferably online so that when it fails to light, I can get a new one and download my stuff on to it. Anyone have any recommendations on whose services I should use? It's an HP running Windows.

True Grit 10/10 I like westerns and this is a good 'un. Well acted, well written, well directed and photographed. Not overly dark, it has some lighter moments . I believe I will commence speaking as they did back then and will use no contractions in my speech

La Lollobrigida. RIP

My truck started to idle poorly. Every time the A/C compressor kicked in it would stumble almost to the point of dying. For 2 days, whenever I came to a stop I would shift into neutral, turn off the climate control and feather the gas pedal to keep it running. I'm thinking the worst because it...

I started taking at 62 because my clan are burn outs. My dad died when he was 55 and so did my sister. At 62 I felt I was on borrowed time, no way was I going to make it to 67.

A tap is how it will happen, too, cuz I'm a little hard of hearing.

My most recent AAA card My mom enrolled me when I left for college.

...your "dentist" gives you a small tube of Fixodent instead of a toothbrush as your exit gift.

It wasn't the drivers.

I was confused that the winning point was scored by the team hitting the ball 4 times. I thought 3 was the maximum allowed. A quick search and I learned that a block is not considered a hit. I learn so much coming here.

I have an appointment at Costco this morning for a hearing aid test.

If you had completed the border first, like everybody else does, you would have saved yourself a bunch of disappointment and time.

We were so bored during the "two weeks to flatten the curve" that turned into a year, my wife and I painted a court on our driveway. It was actually a lot of fun.

Destroying that shelf would be a good thing.

I read ‘The Inferno’ in Italian in college. I was going to major in Chemistry, but I grew up with my grandmother who was fresh off the boat from Italy (so was my mom, for that matter) and so I grew up also speaking Italian. I figured I would take some Italian lit classes for some easy As. That...

Google "riveting punch".

I would try a different saw. You've replaced the breakers, different circuits are affected and the only common denominator is the saw. It takes a pretty good meter to record instantaneous start-up draw. Most meters won't record that.

Saw this yesterday. Kinda quirky, a little long in the middle, made me sleepy, but a solid B. Damn, Margot Robbie is gorgeous.

Get a cane bolt for one side.

It was enacted in '74 by Nixon. I remember that. It was 55 when Carter was President, but not evenly enforced. Carter wanted increased compliance with the 55 mph limit.

I learned on several cars in Driver's Ed., but I only remember learning to drive a stick in a 71 Ford Torino with "3 on the tree".

It seems like a lifetime since I last heard the song of my people.

It’s been a holiday tradition in our house for years. YOU’RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!! How do they know where we’re going?

Or this

Have you talked to your neighbors to see what they do?

Some might consider that a bug. I think it’s a feature.

I've bought 2 Lifetime brand sheds from Lowes over the years. They seem to last. They're plastic and never need painting. The only downside is that shelving is more difficult than with a wooden shed. I made a simple platform out of wood. It rotted out after about 4 years. I built another and it...

Well, this guy passed away today. I figure he was over 10 years old. So long, little buddy.

I This is a view under my RV. That black thing on the left is a very sensitive, remote controlled motion sensor. If you wiggle the exhaust pipe any little bit you'll set it off and it's amazingly loud.

$200 will get you an electric HF mixer that you can sell for $100 when you're done. Harbor Freight Mixer

Out of my range, too. I just changed the oil on my 2003 Chevy Silverado w/150k miles on it. I hope it’s the last car I buy for myself so I’m not really up on what’s out there except I learned about the Rivian because a friend was going to get one. Good luck in your search.

Get a Rivian. Road Test

This is the "truth" for people my age and younger. If I was 10 years older, I would understand why Elvis was such a big deal but I grew up in the 60s and Elvis was a 50s phenom. I enjoyed the movie. I like Tom Hanks and he played Parker with just enough creepiness and the actor that played...

Exactly. I just paid $5000 to get my house painted not because I didn’t know how, but because I knew if I fell off a ladder I might never heal.

That would have been Wanda. Thanks for the photos.

I bought the Orbit several years ago and it has always worked well and because they keep improving the app, it works even better. When I was selling these things, the biggest problem people had with them was they were installing them where their wifi signal was weak. Usually this was in the...
