LOL, that's an idea lol. I duno, I at least want to try the shock collar out first...a sort of hidden fun potential exists. I have one handy w/remote..fully adjustable.

 

A friend of mine that is tracking the Utah COVID numbers by percentage just showed that by percentage, Utah has gone down 3 days in a row.

Also, if you've ever heard of Qualtrics, they just announced today that they've developed a survey for COVID patients so we can better understand how it's contracted, health statuses, rate of transmission, hot spots, and lots of other metrics. They are a "Silicone Valley" company headquartered in Utah. I've felt pretty strongly this whole time that Utah will play a part in resolving and preventing this from being an issue in the future. There is a lot of good going on here with medical technologies. The U has a stellar program, and I hadn't even thought about our computer technology.

BTW, Buck0, I don't know if you are doing remote sessions for employees right now, but it was just announced that Zoom has some pretty serious exploit issues, revealing usernames and passwords. It affects MAC and PC platforms:

Grandson #2 finally made his appearance this morning..naturally. She didn't need to be induced after all.

She was aloud one person in the room, which is more less normal. However, that individual couldn't leave until discharged with patient or wouldn't be aloud back in the hospital. They'll be released tomorrow sometime.

Everything great, no problems. Colson Jbrew ...... has arrived .

 

Congrats grandpa.

 

Congratulations Grampa Brew.

Thanks White, we use 3cx for many of our clients. No Zoom for us. We tried Teams since our Office 365 clients already have access to it but their system was overwhelmed. Participants were up to 2 minutes behind real time. Can't run a meeting like that.

 

Congrats Brewster...

I thought you fellers may get a kick out of this. Matt posted this pic from a fan that made a "Yellow Banana" out of an RC car.

 

Man, I must have missed a notification!

Whitey: I'm sorry to hear about your friend, and hope they can recover quickly and well. Glad to hear about the U's research. Cool stuff. And I just scratched an itch on my cheek (dammit!). Hands kept in pockets while out of the house helps.

​​​​​​Pawpaw Brew: Congrats on the little one!

In other news: Awoke to 6" of snow this morning. I really hope that's Old Man Winter's last hurrah, but it *is* only April 4.

Due to the above, I drove the truck for the first time in a couple weeks. Ummmm it doesn't stop quite the same as the TLX.


Stay safe, thinkers!

P. S. Love the RC 'Nanner.

 

I had about 3 inches on Thursday morning. Most of it is gone, but I still have a small patch in the back yard. It's supposed to get close to 60 degrees today, and I really want to mow the lawn. I was going to on Wednesday night, but I remembered that I still needed to change the oil in the mower.... and by the time I was done changing the oil, I swear the temp dropped 20 degrees.

 

Seeking more help with the 08 Edge. I had a Dr's appointment yesterday and had to drive about 40 miles round trip. The Edge started making a noise that could be best described sounding like a trumpet blowing out a steady, almost non-stop note. Tapping the brakes would make the note go away. It didn't take anywhere near enough pressure on the pedal to cause braking for the noise to go away. During one of the occasions where the noise wasn't happening I was going over a RR crossing with two sets of tracks. The tracks are rough and each time I hit a track with the front tires, the noise would blow. It was like four quick trumpet notes blaring. A few places of rough road it let out with a kind of flutter blowing of the note. First thought was it had something to do with the horn but no, not that I can find. The note of the noise is no where near the same as the horn. It's also not as loud as the horn but it is loud enough that it can cause some to turn their heads to see what's coming. Any experience or thoughts with something like this would be appreciated. I haven't taken any tools to it yet but nothing obvious sticks out including with the booster.
