February all-topic thread.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot to make a February all-topic thread. Sosumi.
I keep forgetting the end of the month comes faster now that I am older and more forgetful. That is my story, and I am sticking to it.
I did go to church yesterday but got lazy after. Just watched TV (Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime) all day until bedtime.
The truck is "supposedly" fixed. My niece's friend was here Friday and yesterday replacing the stoplight switch, and a small fuse. I have not tried it yet, but today I need to get the rent money order, and groceries, so I will go out to the truck and see if it will start and change gears like it is supposed to.

Howdy Tim.
Supposed to start raining around 9am according to the weather guessers. And stop around 1pm. We will see if that comes true.

Well, the weather guessers are just that. Guessing. It is 9:40am and not only is it not raining, but it's also sunny and bright with only a few light clouds in the sky.
I was told last night that the truck was fixed. Have not checked it out yet. Also was told the gear selector cable needs to be rerouted. So, I could take it back to the original repair shop, but I have no confidence in their ability to fix the issue. However, it is the only way to get the cable rerouted for free. I am guessing it is the zip ties they used that is causing the binding in the gear selector. I may take it to them, but I really don't want to as I know they will keep it for days and claim it is fixed.

Roll Call.
Is everyone okay with the storm? Flooding. Power Outage. Road Closure.
How many inches has Glue Guy got? Is Modoc watching bad drivers slide off the road? Did Fat Diesel fire up his fire truck to rescue anyone?
