yes. I thought the same and then I read that a lot of them were doing it. I wrote to Smoant and they asked for an arm and a leg (receipt, serial number, pic of the box, pic of the screen at its worst, etc.) so I never pursued it. I should though. Was just not in the mood at the time.

Well you can send them pics or just eat it, but if they are willing to fix it for little to no cost to you then I say do it.

What do you suggest move to Fort Worth and deal with that horrendous traffic no thanks

Better traffic in Fort Worth than Dallas, better-paid police department, better response time police department, less crime, a better class of people, and the best less vegan places.

Sweet dreams, insomniacs if you can get there.

I spent an interesting night in Texas on the way to the grand canyon when I drove to the Grand Canyon one time. My car was breaking down and we had to like, stay the night somewhere, we chose the motel that was like 20 dollars below everywhere else because there was some crazy storm and the pipes had burst or something? IRCC?

In any case, I coped by drinking a lot of beer. LOL.

I have worked for decades in restaurants making every kind of food. It is hard to pin it down to a few dishes. I was a chef in an Italian restaurant for 10 years. Some of my favorite specials were Steak Au Poivre, Braised Short ribs, Osso Buco, Seared Scallops with maple cream sauce along with the usual Italian dishes. Lately it's been Lollipop lamb with Chimichurri, Chicken Satay and increasingly more Asian food. My favorite thing to cook is probably Mexican food. I have learned a lot of good recipes from the people I have worked with, and it's fun to make.

Edit: Can't vape while I work. Gotta go outside..
There is a seafood restaurant in the city next to mine that has a seafood alfredo. It has scallops, crab, and shrimp in a fire roasted tomato alfredo sauce. Best seafood pasta I've had so far.

It is 2300 and I have no intentions on sleeping tonight. I usually get my sleep on vacations in the morning and sleep from about 600 to 1300 then start my day. I am usually walking around my neighborhood at night up till an hour before the crack of sunrise. Dangerous maybe but boy it makes me feel good.

The best thing about 3rd shift is getting off in the morning. It's so cool and relaxing to be up in the early morning with nowhere I have to go. If I change schedules I will miss that.

I think the best thing about the night besides the yellow ball of death is on the other side of the world is all the extra interesting people running around.

Man I wish falling asleep were as easy as waking up.

I forgot my alarm and slept til 9. I view such days as "spa" days but they also make me nervous. I'm also gonna get a backup alarm and put a battery in it too before I like, start work. Although, I am equally great at a) forgetting 2 things as easily as 1 thing b) I haven't purchased an alarm clock since college and like, I bet I am going to have to figure out how to work it. Yes, even with such a simple thing.

There is nothing worse than the "I missed my alarm" to work. I mean, it makes you look like the flakiest of the flakiest. I'm also going to purchase one of those HUGE like lugnut crosses prior to work, and untighten them from "factory tight" given my commute. I know how to change a tire but without the leverage strength to do it, well, I don't see how anyone changes a tire with the lugnuts on that tight, and I used to, all the time, with the right tools and not every single auto mechanic using one million pounds of pressurized air to like, reinsert the lugnuts.

And it wasn't like we were having an "epidemic of lugnuts" falling off" EITHER before that time, I think they're all in league with AAA.

Oh Sleep, my one true enemy!
Know that I hate you and shall fight you with my every breath.

I wrestle with you at sunset,
I fight you when it is sunrise.

I cast ye into the most bottomless pits of Tartarus
and quench my thirst with your tears.

Oh Sleep!
Suffer you abominable fiend!

For you hath robbed man of work
and forsaken us when we slumber.
Our dreams go unrecounted and our lust goes unsatisfied.
The thrall of suffering you are.

Enemy to human endeavor! Sleep!
Know I swear by gods of whiskey: Jack, Jim, James, and Johnnie.
To toss you into a hell fit for your sins.
I plea unto the Gods of vapedom: Kanger, Joy, and Geek to answer my prayers.

KNOW I hold no love for the listlessness you give me and the unproductiveness you create!
My books go unread and my anime goes unwatched.
For it is you Sleep who hath taken these joys from me.

Robber!
Demon!
Scoundrel!
Insufferable thrall of SMOK!

I grit my teeth and gnash at my drip tip.
I await your demise, I await your comeuppance.

Foe of Marcus Aurelius!
Enemy of Plato!
Demon of Descartes!
Scoundrel of The VGOD!

SLEEP!
I raise my mod!
For I am blessed by the VGOD!
I strike your head!
Lest I hit your nether-area 'stead!
Fight you I will!
For I am ready to kill!

Hear me VGOD!
For Sleep is a fraud!
Tainted our hearts!
Just like a Taco Bell fart!

O' Sleep!
Close your eyes you shall
. . . for you are not my ****ing pal.
