I don't like getting called 3 minutes after waking up in the morning telling me my shift was cancelled. No sir. I don't like it.

Just me, but I wouldn't have let that person do anything else to me after they backed in to me.

I'm kind of annoyed at having to chase both a hornet and a Japanese Beetle around in my house due to an unseen hole in the window screen. I hate buzzing bugs. The hornet sounds like a fighter plane and the beetle sounds like a bomber.

Got a **** haircut, now I'm just buzzing it all off in the morning.

About every 3rd summer I buzz my hair off. I have a trimmer more or less like this:

https://jet.com/product/detail/7d010c9e201e486a8a83daeba82dbf55?jcmp=pla:ggl:cwin_health_beauty_a3:personal_care_shaving_grooming_a3_other:na:PLA_348434340_24222168900_pla-172953733740:na:na:na:2&code=PLA15&ds_c=cwin_health_beauty_a3&ds_cid&ds_ag=personal_care_shaving_grooming_a3_other&product_id=7d010c9e201e486a8a83daeba82dbf55&product_partition_id=172953733740&gclid=CM3MyLSy2M0CFUElgQodiV4OhQ&gclsrc=aw.ds

(for about the price of not very many haircuts at all, so it is a good "tool investment") and I use about the 3rd from the thinnest guard. It is great and easy and particularly nice here in "Hotlanta" but the wife and daughter hate it.

"makes you look like a middle-aged cop"

Buzz it about every 2 weeks from May/June until about September, and I don't really need an actual "regular" haircut until nearly Thanksgiving.

The other day, I posted about people misusing the word "experience." Here's another one that tends to be abused: "considered".

If you say, "x is y", you're making a claim about what x actually is.

If you say, "x is considered y", you're making a claim about what people think about x.

One of the best things of living in an area surrounded by immigrants (Santa Ana represent!) is that they have zero regard for the artificial and unnecessary guidelines put out by local administrative entities regarding fireworks. Translation: they will fire their illegally obtained mortars and good fireworks in spite of what 'safe and sane' laws dictate. The local fire department gave up trying to stop it, they have 3 engines parked at the largest local concrete parking lot in case there is a fire, not to issue citations or complete removals.

Only thing that is bothering me at the moment is all the trees in my 'hood are blocking the view of the shenanigans.

I was installing onto an SSD. But the first time I was getting black screens when logging in, and it would take actually 10 minutes before my computer was responsive to my inputs at the login screen.

Then the second time I had to reinstall a couple of times because of file integrity failures which basically ended up shafting my SSD because I had reinstalled my OS about 12 times in total I worked out.

So hopefully now all the bugs are worked out

If I may...

His insurance company is going to send an adjuster to look at the damage and cut you a check for the damages, or mail you one, or give it directly to the body shop handling the repairs..

You more than likely wont be able to negotiate with the adjuster, but make sure you negotiate with his insurance company so you get all of your expenses, rental car, ect covered.

I worked extensively with adjusters and insurance claims, if you have any questions hit me up..

That is certainly the best way to install in my experience.

Having said that, I upgraded approx 15 systems at work using the desktop upgrade option from Win7, and I had two catastrophic failures. The 13 that upgraded properly worked better with Win10 than Win7 *unless* they were low RAM PCs. Which should have never been offered the upgrade in the first place.
