I'm somehow masochistically drawn to those magnetic door latchesI'm curious as to how they're held closed. (I have a related issue here and am looking for solutions.)
Not at allS-fox is ducking as Gary throws the screwdriver down.

Sorry, those last two lines are two funny, at least you were able to help someone in horrible circumstances. He probably thought you were Santa!!Well, Christmas day here was a bit of a bust.
My lovely lady came down with a cold a few days ago
Drippy runny nose and a developing cough
She knows all the home remedies and then some
But
as this day approached, she let our son know it'll be delayed until New Years.
I let my bud know but had him come over for his gift.
Soooo, we took the day for ourselves
No dinner prep
Thought, hey let's just grab a bucket of KFC and head to the lake.
Looked on line
KFC site for our town showed 'OPEN'
Zipped over there
Not looking open
Drove up to the speaker anyway
Voice sez 'We'll be with you in a moment'
We sit there several minutes
Nothing
Drive up to the window
'Closed for Christmas'
Too funny
Jokes on us
So, we venture to a 365 days a year deli for our chicken fix
My woman loves wings
They just have a boneless Cajun wings and fries basket
She can't do spicy
She opted for em' anyway
Couldn't finish hers
I felt real bad
Pissed at myself
Actually, I didn't care to finish mine either
Drove to the lake
Really socked in
Couldn't even see the lake
Eerily attractive
Shoulda took pics, but just wanted to take it in together
Drove up to the pioneer cemetery behind our place
Good view up there
Drove the little lane
Saw what looked like a huge clump of dirty snow, right in the middle of the lane
Almost drove over it
My lady sez 'IT'S A BODY!!'
There's a guy lying there, on his back
I get out
He struggles to his feet
apologizes
I make sure he's OK
sez he's OK
Wife and I look at each other
Give him what's left of our chicken baskets
(of which was quite a bit)
He devours it
Profusely thanked us
and went his way
Not sure if he'd fainted or what
Sometimes things work that way
If we'd have had KFC, there woulda been nothing left
Well it appears that old Murphy has made it into 2023 in good fettle. Good luck with the monkey wrenchin'.Well now
Jan 1
Starter quit on the truck
No prob, I'll use the Wrangler
battery dead
Hapless New Year!
Hey
Could be worse
Starter is under warranty
and it's stock in town
Battery, well it was 7 years old (Costco)
Couple hundred bucks
Gonna snow
Guess who gets to crawl under the truck....
Yeah, just glad I'm not still living in the mountains.Well it appears that old Murphy has made it into 2023 in good fettle. Good luck with the monkey wrenchin'.
What a remarkable story, @Gary O' ! Particularly when you found the man on his back, helped him up and gave him food. God bless you!Well, Christmas day here was a bit of a bust.
