Never made it to the Social Security office. The truck pulled its "spoiled little brat" attitude on me and would not start in park. Then it finished up with "I said NO!" to me trying to force it into neutral to get it started. So, two problems I have already paid to have fixed (multiple times) are rearing their ugly heads and spoiling the reason for buying the truck in the first place. To go to appointments that are too far for the scooter to go. Can't sell it, can't afford to fix it. So, I have a 5-ton carport queen on my hands...

Ya gotta love modern technology.

On the signature line thing. I think things have changed over the years. It seems to me years ago there was a size option, even for just your standard replies.

I agree. I don't know why they would get rid of the font size option.

They keep changing the forecast. Originally it was supposed to rain from midnight last night until 7am this morning. Then, they changed it from 7am until 7pm. Then they changed it again from 11am until 8pm. However, it is 1pm and still no rain. So, I have no idea if it will ever rain.

Arizona got snow , we were supposed to get more rain than we received, I think the storm Peter’d out somewhere across the Cascades, all I know is the weather guessers were wrong again .

Typical. We didn't get any rain at all to speak of. Sprinkles only. Not even enough to get the chalk off the sidewalk that the 3-year-old around the corner marked up.

Interesting. i have been by Fresno State several times, that must have happened on a weekend as Fresno State's parking lot is always full. Fresno State is about 3 miles northwest of me, never heard about the shootout. Guess I should check my local news from time to time, eh?
