Not here it isn't.

Snow and wind.

Shovelled the driveway, ran to the gas station a couple towns over to get kerosene for the garage heater.

Gotta go to the bank to sign some forms and stuff for the car refinance.

Was gonna go to the big RV show up in Rosemont today with the wife while boy's in school. But show doesn't open till noon and it's a little over an hour's drive to get there, likely longer to get back in the mid afternoon. Wouldn't be home in time for the boy to get off the bus. Show opens earlier on the weekends, but I will not go back there on a weekend again. So damn crowded. Thinking we'll pick boy up from school instead of waiting on the bus tomorrow and go up then. Don't have to worry about getting home on time since he doesn't have school the next day.

Morning, peoples. Day 2 in Seminar land. Boss last night was drunk, set on gambling, and wanted company. I repeated I can't afford to gamble, so he decided to bankroll me at blackjack. Proceeded to win about $500 for him and he gave me $100 bucks for it. Now I'm scared. This is how the gambling bug bites you

My Grandfather went to California and then Las Vegas with my parents to visit family. They flew home out of Las Vegas. My Dad was telling me about Gramps in the Casinos. He looked at all of that stuff like it was a rattlesnake and wanted nothing to do with any of it.

So they're coming home, and Gramps had a silver dollar he had gotten as change somewhere. So at the gate in the airport he told Mom, "What the heck" and shoved it in a slot machine. He hit for several hundred dollars.

He looked at Mom and asked her "Why didn't you tell me it was this easy? I would have played them!"

LOL. Dad said they didn't have the heart to tell him. Figured it was just better to let him be mad at them.

Just walk around like you own the joint and stuff one of the ashtrays down your pants. Pretty sure no one will notice.

Hey Drafter - did you have a color preference?

All the paperwork done and mailed in for car refinance.

Finished up taxes, worked enough overtime to get a return this year. I claim 6 on my W4, so usually I have to cut a check for a couple hundred. Getting $500 back this year.

After I shovel the driveway again, I'm done being a responsible adult for the day.

On to beer and videogames. Maybe a quick HUHC out in the garage.

Pork butt and potatoes.

Spending the day shorting 30k volts to ground every 30 seconds or so. Set up the power supply/HV line and a ground and can hear it arc every time it cycles.

Why would you do that Vic? I assume there's a practical application and you're not just doing it for fun.

HUHC in the garage with a few beers.

Taking a few more down to the basement couch for videogames and a nap.

One of our clients has a number of the systems tripping their GFCI circuits.
We can't seem to replicate the problem in the warehouse, but it's possible that a long icy winter could have caused the system to constantly short, and that may have damaged the GFCI circuit. I'm trying to replicate that scenario.
