I have an old-style 12-cup drip maker, because I'll usually drink 3 or 4 cups right after each other in the morning, and then take the rest to work in a thermos. A couple times when I've been particularly groggy, I've forgotten to close the top before switching it on. Of course hot water goes everywhere but where it's supposed to...all over the counter and dripping down on the floor and into the drawers. OMG!!! OMG!!! THERE MUST BE A PROBLEM WITH THE MACHINE!!! I'LL HAVE TO GO ON REDDIT AND SEEK TRIBAL KNOWLEDGE ABOUT WHAT TO DO!!! OMG !!! OMG!!! OMG!!!

The YooToob comment section would be a far better example, slathering every imaginable topic in ignorant gibberish.

Ya just gotta wonder about clams sometimes...

"Retired" totally is looking more and more like what I should have done back in 2018, and just shrugged and walked away, like ol' Atlas.

And Photoshop to cover its mistakes and make everyone online oooooooh and aaaaaaaah.

Both my attention and my temper are engaged today with having to fix adult-baby messes I didn't make.

Hey guys, taking a break. Should be back in January 2025. Site is still open to view, but orders cannot be placed. Orders placed before this pause in operation will be fulfilled shortly. Thank you... Robert Bentley

It never ceases to amaze me...

Still just a little hangy. I have to wonder what is gained by these -------- constantly messing with things everywhere online. It's not like there's anything of financial value to steal from this site...

Just catching up with this one, nice work, and terrific color.

Career choices based on interests and aptitude make for more pleasant and satisfying lives.

Hands perpetually in one's own pockets can indicate a lack of self-confidence, while hands perpetually in someone else's indicate you're either a pickpocket or a politician.

Make some?

Not much size selection, but... https://www.tedsmodelingmarketplace.com/rod-ends-link-heim-kit-1-16/ EDIT: possibly 3D printable options?

I'm glad I don't have an Aunt Matilda.

Yeah, but "whirr whirr" (and silence when it's not moving) doesn't seem as much fun as "vroom vroom". And I want to hear a cam-lopey idle, even if it's just in my 8-year-old's imagination.

Yup, and a "pancake style" insert would have been just fine with me...just so I could pose the factory mess next to the way I'm going to build it, with a smallblock Ford V8, and underpinnings from the Revell old Bronco kit.

Your pro firefighter fans were probably considerably larger than the ones I use. However, I've been using an industrial fan (only 3' diameter, but moves a LOT of air and used to be in the wall of my fiberglass shop) to pull air through the house for over 15 years, in the last, much larger place too. I've tried it PUSHING into the house, and all it does is cool the one room. It also seems to add heat to the incoming air, which it would, as it's adding energy. Setting it up to PULL, with downstream windows open, it'll cool the entire house easily, in a relatively short time. EXAMPLE: It got up to 98 here today, and when I got in, the house was around 92. The outdoor temp has now dropped to 88, I've had the suck-fan running for about a 1/2 hour, and every room is down to 88 now. It'll be down to whatever the outdoor temp is by midnight when I hit the sheets, and I can sleep comfortably if it's low-80s and low humidity. I've been living without AC for all of those 15 years, in the hot-humid Southeast, as the summer AC bill at the last place was running $600/month. Nope. Not arguing, just passing along what I've experimented with, and what works for me.

Here's another thought. If a model has no engine, I can't really justify going "vroom vroom". It may as well be a Tesla.

History has a handy way of pointing out unpleasant realities that will bite people who don't learn from it.

Photograph a massive backside with something o-so-clever tattooed on it, or smeared in some disgusting bodily fluid, call it "Great Art", and you can't go wrong in today's art market.
