Dude. How old is that keyboard and where is your spacebar?
The keyboard is eight years old. The ends of the spacebar kept getting pinned under the alt keys so I swapped out the long key cap for one of the "gaming caps". Works fine once you get used to it being the size of a regular key. Cherry blue: click, click, click. It could probably use a bit of cleaning.

I would rather remember this. One of the best movies right next to Duel for car movies. Ok maybe original Vanishing Point.

I had no idea this one had a official music video.
Yup, always loved that movie, the soundtrack song selections were perfect and the physical special effects were great. Nice job by all the actors involved too, since the treated Arnie like shit it had you rooting for Christine as revenge was meted out.
Interesting side note, the Fury (s) brought in for the movie didn't have the engine sound Carpenter wanted so the used a Ford super Cobra Jet 428.

Nothing beats when she is on fire running him down.

Well i had a Bang energy and then i went to work, i vacuumed entire carpet in the house 3x over and everything in my room except walls and ceiling got Lysol, i did a 3 parts lysol to water dilute in lysol spray bottle and JUST went to town on everything. My room i just moved back into at another house friend owns and it was a bit dusty. Even the contents of the wallet got lysoled and well why not. 200+ people touched my debit/id since i got it. Outside of entire pc case got it too. EVERYTHING but the walls and ceilings got it not kidding. My entire bathroom from ceiling to floor got lysoled as well. Remote to tv, all my tools even got it as anything else constantly handled, touched or picked up. All door frames,handles you name it.

I eventually pulled my back pulling this dang vacuum up and down the stairs. Hurt so bad i crashed with 20mg of indica like 3 hours later after a few Rick N Morty episodes hosting with friend.

I'm in Italy and have been in a "Work from Home" situation since Feb 24 and basically the "LockDown" since March 8. 5 people basically occupying a 50sq meter space (main floor of apartment) since Feb 24. Kitchen table is the "office" for me and my wife, my older son in the middle for his online classes and then the twins at a smaller table on opposite side of the room for homework sent by teachers.

What am I doing? Going F-ing crazy.

I went for a hike today at Saguaro National Park. I've never seen it so mobbed. So much for social distancing.

Now I have a Ruckus purring in my lap as I type. Ruckus doesn't do social distancing.

I've got one like that, if he adheres to his typical schedule, he'll look just like that in about an hour, rubbing his head on my chin.

Nope, he was early, already here.

The laptop is warm.

I got a cat named Mischief who keeps parking his ass right in front of my fridge. He actually slides on the floor instead of moving with the fridge getting opened, the door pushes him and he gives no shits its funny. I had a kitten at the other house who knocked over my mouse every morning like a alarm,i wake up and its on my pc tower staring and daring me almost. I get up out of bed and it just takes off like Mario Andretti.

In the book yes ... I think they changed it slightly in the movie.

Yeah i had my own Arnie moment,i saw a slightly overpriced 65 GT Dart 2 door with a v8 badge and bucket seats and some side wide open tailpip hanging out the side like max mad. They want $2,500 and while it needs front end work and comestic mainly i felt like Arnie compelled to get it. Kinda still but still looking till summer, i want something i could drop a 383 big block or 360 magnum crate from summit racing into.

I think i could talk the dude down to $1,800 , it ran when parked and well having tooled on these, it takes so little to get one moving again.

I had a cat named Mischief when I was a kid ... light beige Tabby female... awesome kitty. She had a particular fondness for the artificial (at the time) blueberries in Pillsbury Toaster cakes. Crazy cat would open the latched bread-box, pull out the sealed toaster cake plastic bag, rip it open on the floor and consume ONLY the fake berries leaving a giant pile of crumbs! Ultimately had to keep them in the fridge to prevent this.

She also lived to be 22!

LOL i had a kitten who would not eat anything, the thing was sick but when i dropped a cheeto it raced for it. Me and a friend mixed a cheeto up with wet food and nursed it back to health.For the longest time,it would only eat wet food if it had cheetos crushed and mixed in. Named the kitty Chester after that.

Ripping my record collection to MP3 so I can move the records out of the office. Finding some gems. Can't really work as I'm in real estate and nobody is selling or buying homes right now.

Aren't they? I've had four showings in the last week at my house, from what I could tell looking to see if I was going to be boned, people didn't seem to think there was much impact on it.

Actually quite a sobering process. Having been through the death of my parents, and the wife's parents, and the task of sorting everything out afterward for insurance, accounts, safety deposit boxes, etc., I have decided in the worst case scenario to at least make that easier for those that hopefully will survive me.

I've been working on a spreadsheet with all account numbers, contacts both local and corporate for investments, etc. for family, even sign-on's for utility accounts, banking, as most of these are in my name. Will provided hardcopy and electronic copy when I get it fleshed out to wife, daughter, and adult grandsons.

Think about it, if you have your family on your cell phone plan, they need to be able to at least pickup the payments so they still have a working phone. Or little things, like where are the titles to vehicles, deeds, etc. Being a veteran the wife and I can be burried in the state veterans cemetery, free for me, $200 for wife. Completed that today, and detailing where the info about this is.

The absolute hardest thing I have had to do is ask the grandsons not to come to the house. The oldest is a firefighter/EMT, so he on on the front lines, and the youngest is a volunteer firefighter, still in high school, but will become a firefighter/EMT within a year. They are very loving boys, and always have a big hug and "love you" every time they visit.

Then I see the fucking orange turd spew his unbelievable stupidity and I rage..............
