If anyone wants a set of long wrenches, Napa Auto has a good price on a set of Craftsman. Pretty good when you need a little extra reach and leverage. Real good price when compared to Amazon and Lowe's.

I think I am going to like helping this lady out. Yesterday she cooked four small chickens in a pot all morning. Then last night she made chicken tacos with lettuce, tomatoes, and avocadoes. Meat and veggies in one meal.

Jim, My guess is that if the breaks don't work or are in warning state the cruse control will not work. And you have a room mate now that cooks... That's great !!

The brake warning light has been on ever since I owned the truck. Most likely it is an issue with the instrument cluster. The CC working and not working is a mystery unless it blew a fuse. I have not checked that as I need to find the fuse block.

The oil change message is on the dash display of the van. Exactly 1 year from the last oil change. It only went 3,500 miles. I think I'll wait. The oil should have plenty of life left. Chicken drumsticks for dinner. 99 cents a pound. $3. The age old Asian method of cooking it in soy sauce.

In case anyone is keeping track, there have already been 3 attempts on Trump. The 1st was Crooks in July. In August, Syvrud was arrested before he could do anything. Now we have Routh in September. I can't believe how crazy this world has gotten. I'm shocked. Shocked that people are willing to go to such extremes over ideology. I guess this takes the attention away from the fiasco in Venezuela.


I remember Hinckley shooting Reagan. But that wasn't ideology. He did it over a girl. Not that I can relate to that either.

Seems to me that some people don't want Trump to be President again. I also notice nobody is trying to assassinate Kamala Harris. However, knowing that 90% of all mass shootings are done by registered Democrats both of these make sense now.
As for Hinckley, I have no clue why he did what he did. And neither did Jodie Foster.
Anyway, enough of that. I am enjoying this cooler weather. Makes going to church a lot more pleasant when I am not already sweating at 9am!
