    Blood Pressure

    Wow, that’s some scary BP, I’m glad you’re doing OK now. Mine was up a bit and is regulated well with meds. Had double bypass early 2020 and have to use bandaids for nicks that used to clot up, due to the blood thinners. This is a really good warning post - I did a crazy hard work house...

    TV?

    Patience and consistency. It’s too easy to miss, forget, or let little things slide. He’s so good at seeing what’s going on in a dog’s brain, it’s amazing. ‘You gotta snap the brain outta it”.😂. The beauty of it is that if you establish the relationship, you “don’t gotta snap the brain outta...

    TV?

    Cesar saved us with our last dog. We’d had a couple of Lab/Springer mix pups and found them easy to train and socialize. Our last girl was a Pit/Lab mix. She was a high energy maniac until she was two, but when we “got” Cesar’s respect lessons, she turned out to be a sweet pup. She was always...

    How are you guys doing with the storms?

    To modify an old phrase “We’re from the government and we’re here to help you” to forget common sense 🤣. If there’s anything the government can’t get wrong, I haven’t seen it. I think about my grandparents - they never dreamed that they weren’t on their own to make their lives work and take...

    Are you back far enough from the beach? 😬

    How are you guys doing with the storms?

    It looks brutal. We’ve had a little of that along the Oregon coast, and the state has forbidden any riprap to stabilize the banks. Here, that would help, I don’t know about back there.

    How are you guys doing with the storms?

    We’re seeing houses falling into the ocean on YouTube weather channels. Are all you guys doing OK?

    Gas or electric

    Exactly, and when the key fob battery goes dead? How vulnerable do we want to be to tech stuff? I see ads for really rebuilt/restored Land Rovers and Land Cruisers - I wonder if there’ll be a business opportunity rebuilding the old units Step, Oteps, I and a bunch of us love from the past...

    Gas or electric

    I have NO interest in an electric car or a newer hi-tech gas vehicle. A buddy just swapped out his Expedition for a newer one. It has a 10 speed transmission, unlocks when you walk up to it with the key fob on you, must have 50 electric motors in it that work EVERYTHING, and tons of obnoxious...

    Well…. I’m done! Retired!

    You’re in a great place. I was waiting for an X-ray and picked up a Florida fishing magazine - what an amazing fishery. And I envy you living where a center console makes sense. Really glad you’re doing what you want to do.😎🎣

    Ignore

    Thank you. Replying was a waste of time - now there won’t be the temptation.

    Gas prices

    I’m not seeing an increase, and with turbulence in the world it wouldn’t be a surprise or a big deal if we did see a temporary increase.

    Putting hole in console

    The hole saw and squaring it up with down cutting blade in a jigsaw sounds pretty good to me. I don’t know all the considerations, but you could pick a spot and put a piece of blue tape the size and shape of the hole there and live with it for a while to see what you think.

    Oops - sorry about the political comment - didn’t notice the forum title.

    Putting hole in console

    If you use a jigsaw, get a down cutting blade. They’re made for cutting holes in Formica countertops without lifting chips. If you use your multitool, make a template from plywood or something, with the same size hole as you want, to guide the tool and keep it from wandering outside of where...

    I’ll explain inflationary impact

    And many thanks Joe Biden for his massive leap in inflation.

    Trump lies knowing people don’t check

    None of which confirms that he didn’t take any classes from Trump’s uncle, unless the uncle died or wasn’t teaching at MIT while Ted was a student at Harvard.
