This has got to be one of those “Boaty McBoatface” kinds of goofing with polls stories.

Oh, in case you’re wondering about the original pattern- I traced and taped it.

Now I need to go to the FedEx store and have them print me the top sticker part in the exact size I need, and laminate it. Phew!

There’s no chance I’m finding a spare, so…

Overhead projector acetate sheets, copper tape that’s conductive on both sides, a whole punch, a straight edge, an x-acto knife…. And my cheater (magnifying) glasses.

A couple of hunched hours later:

Why is my neck sore? It started by needing one of these:

(A busted keypad from a Big Trak)

I was thinking of Geddy Lee of Rush, and thought “What is Geddy short for?” Gedmonton?

I looked it up. It’s a nickname that derived from how his Polish Holocaust surviving mother pronounced his name, Gary.

I can just hear it. “Geddy, vy you no get haircut?” 😂

It’s lovely of course, but I know I can’t fit in it…. If you have a head installed above your shoulders, this isn’t the car for you.

Funny how none of his alleged victims are coming out to support this…. And “demand”?

Girlie is supposed to write her performance review at work, and I was giving her “false” areas for improvement (ones that sound absurdly positive, versus actual constructive and humble examples), and she’s resistant.

Then I suggest she have an AI write it, and she thinks her higher ups would catch on. I’m not so sure. Even if they did, so what? It’s a big waste of time anyway.

The new Bobby Fingers/Slow Mo Guys/Adam Savage collab project and resulting videos (on the topic of Fabio catching a Canada Goose to the face on a roller coaster) is simply brilliant.

I set out to look up the difference between blossom and bloom.

Forget it.

I have motion sensitive security cameras around d the outside of the house, and when they react to something it pops up an alert on my laptop with a hushed little “blurb” sound. My dog has associated that sound with someone being outside, and barks.

Today it’s windy as fuck, and inside it’s a chorus of “blorp WOOF!!” over and over. Sheesh.

Looks like someone at Apple wondered what that cable simply labeled “iMessages” does, and pulled it.

What ever were the odds that in 1966 Wilson Picket sang “Ride Sally Ride” (in Mustang Sally), and then twentyish years later a woman named Sally Ride would be the first US woman in space (and later understood to be the first LGBTQ astronaut)?

That still seems weird.

It’s a marvel how some artists just keep getting better as they age. Currently I’m thinking of/enjoying Tony Bennett, but he’s far from alone.

I don’t think I like my new dentist. I liked my old dentist, but he moved and sold his practice to this guy. *sigh*

Curious how everyone gets so worked up about a football kicker, simply because he’s a horrid anti-woman, anti-Jew, anti-LGBTQ+, anti-gun-control, intolerant piece of shit. Where is the surprise?

The NFL deserves this spokesperson.
