Confirmed tornadoes in the area!!!



To dam close..................... 🤦

Find low ground, Ram!!!

Or barring that just strap yourself to a pipe with your belt. Should be all good

If a tornado swept though SoCal... we'd be screwed, blued, and tattooed. Houses are made to withstand shaking ground... they'd be flying like Toto and Dorothy in a hurricane. There would be nothing left.

And it's 73 degrees outside... On September 1st... and the water is cold as f--k and the fish ain't biting. Sposta be back to 97 on Saturday. Not sure the water will warm up that fast. Hurricanes to the south of us off Baja usually push up warm water, but the water at the Coronado Islands is 62 fn degrees and it's usually 69/70+ this time of year.

73 degrees here. Coolest summer in the 6 years I’ve been here. My tomato garden hasn’t done anything because it’s not warm enough this year.

Global warming and stuff. 😰

Very cool this summer, so far. Water temps are crazy low and erratic as all hell. Last Monday the 23rd the water at the rock pile (10 miles south of the 'Nados) was 70 degrees and I limited on Yellowtail. 6 days later when we went on the following Sunday it was 61. Fish were not happy... and had moved off to warmer water.... wherever that was.

MACS, are you going to weigh in tomorrow ?

Before or after the gym? Meh... prolly gonna be 2-3 lbs heavier either way. Salty pizza gonna have me holding water.

That's why you should weigh in once a week.

Day 3 without power. Feel like I’m hanging out with Barbarino, Horshack and the gang. Going to take me a week to cleanup around here.

I’m down 3 lbs since Saturday. About 40 to go.

Anth is low...on food!

We should send him some hemp. It's the world premier food source after all.

I though camel toes were, seems like that's always on your mind. Do the hemp cause you miss it.👅

Hemp camel toe coverings?

-natural
-sustainable
-98.2% coverage

Hmmm. 😝

New day (Thursday) New Opportunity.

I'm a 100% fan of yoga pants... as long as they are worn buy the appropriate people.

My job at the circus would be much more bearable if there was more eye candy to watch. Sadly, it's like a 95% I need eye bleach, 5% I'd tap that.

Since I don't do much other than people watch, it's a mental game to pass the time.

Yep...
Nope...
God.... Nope...
Nope... but maybe...

What the Frank is that? Doesn't look human so nope...

Still waiting for an electric bike update. C’mon, Buckminster. Whachu got?

It's in the works still.

Mechanically all set. Electric motor front wheel was easy to swap out. The battery pack that I bought took a bit of time to fuch with since a shock absorber for the back triangle sits in the main triangle of the bike. It didn't fit in easy as advertised, was a c#nt hair too big and I needed to dremmel some of the mounting brackets. Been doing it in the living room (carpeted with a drop cloth underneath) Lost a little 4-40 pan head screw in the process somewhere. Had to just go with two mounting screws on the little bracket. Ended up finding the third this morning walking barefoot in the living room (like stepping on a tiny f-in tack). How it ended up 5 feet away from my assembly area, I have no clue but it found me.

I tried to go frugal when bought the battery pack, the controller, and the wheel motor - I kinda did it in a piece wise fashion so the wiring connectors were all different. Had to buy some different crimp connectors to mate them all together. Did that this past weekend. I get juice out of the battery (learned that by mistake, it makes a nice spark if you cross the + and - wires). Doesn't seem like it's getting juice to the motor though. I'm missing something that is probably obvious.

The hand breaks are supposed to cut out the motor. Then the motor should kick in when you twist the throttle but something electrical ain't engaging. What was supposed to be a 2 hour retrofit has turned into a on and off weekend project for the past couple weekends.

I probably see about half a dozen electric bikes buzzing around town each week. I'm thinking of taking it to the local bike shop downtown and dumping it off with all the parts. "Here ya' go. Make it work, and tell me what I owe you" type of thing.

Part of me says to back out and go back to human power. The bike is not my main mode of transportation and I don't really need it but I'm a dweeb for technology, I'm stubborn and refuse to punt.

At this point I'm about $500+ into the "upgrade." In for a penny, in for a pound. If it cost's me another $200 for the local mom and pop bike shop to get it going... well then... I'm supporting my local community along the way. They are good peeps, I don't mind giving them my money to keep their small business going.

Meybe they can put a little plow on the front and I can make some coin plowing sidewalks this winter.

Apple season is around the corner. Here in MA we have a bunch of apple farms all around me, the grocery stores will soon have a bunch of varieties to chose from.

Apple cider, homemade apple crisp and apple pies, and a variety of eating apples... that's one thing to look forward to in the fall.

Fittddy eight

Fiddy NINE! kinds of apples to choose from

Happy Thursday fellas
