Friggin RiffTrax forum pages are taking F-O-R-E-V-E-R to load for some reason..
Been like this for weeks now :grr:

Yeah I've certainly noticed it being quite slow at times.

I'm a great uncle again, only this time it's from my Satanist nephew. The little demon spawn is called Lucien, which I just know was a compromise saving the kid from being called Lucifer.

My nephew is so bloody pedestrian, I really tried to encourage a bit more creativity but instead it's just lazy LaVeyism all the way (and not the clever bits either just the trite theatre)..

So I'm here at our boutique in Mexico and I have been trying for a few years now to get my immigration status changed from being just a tourist and each time I try, I'm missing something so I'm preparing once again to pay the immigration office a visit and need a scanned copy of my current tourist visa to present to them and the color cartridge for the printer isn't working right..
I had 3 cartridges here from the last trip and only 1 black cartridge remains and I didn't bring any more color cartridges with me :-[
*grumble* >:(

Just get a street artist to paint in the missing colors.....

Ugh. I am so goddamn sick of typing information in, only to find out I had the caps lock on (or in some cases not have it on when I needed it). Given how many useful keyboard shortcuts there are, you think that there'd be one of them to reverse the capitalization on text.

In word, at least, you can highlight text and hit Shift-F3 to cycle between all caps, all lower, and all initial-capped.

I got 2 of them refilled for $100 Pesos (about $7.70) and after a couple of maintenance cleans by the printer, they work ok.. :-\

Wow. Home Renovation is the worst. We're getting vinyl flooring to replace our carpets, and it looks AWESOME, but trying to fit all of our worldly posessions into the space they're NOT working on that day is as bad as moving. Maybe worse. And all of this also serves to remind me that I'm not quite the strapping young lad who moved in to this place a decade ago.. I'm aching from head to toe, right now.

A nephew helped me sell a laptop this morning but told his friend $3000 Pesos instead of $3500 Pesos..
Lost about $40 dollars on the deal but still made a slight profit :-\

Bought a projector (to replace the one that was stolen at our Red Wings Sports Bar in Mexico) for $100 and all it needed was a lamp based on the sellers description..
QuoteThis unit needs a bulb that is why Im selling it as is for parts.
It was listed under 'For parts or not working' so I ordered a new bulb and installed it.
It would run for about 15 seconds then turn off. Turns out it had a fan error code based on the troubleshooting guide and would need to be taken to a repair shop.
I asked for a partial refund (the exorbitant $30 shipping cost) be refunded to use towards repair costs and the seller refused.
I filed an ebay dispute because it was Not As Described and ebay ruled in favor of the seller because it was listed as Parts Not Working despite the deceptive description. And you are not allowed to leave feedback if you lose.

So I decide to tear into it just to see if I could find out what was causing the problem and found a loose connection at the lamp fan. Tightened it up and it appears to work fine now.
I think I got lucky on this one :o

Expected a package in the mail today. Mail was delivered around 10am (which is earlier than normal but fine with me) and no package..
Checked USPS.com for any updates and it showed 'Out for Delivery' at 8am. Kept checking their website off and on throughout the day, no change and still no package delivered..
Then I check after 5:30pm and the status changed and this message was posted:
QuoteWe attempted to deliver your item at 5:08 pm on July 17, 2014 and a notice was left because an authorized recipient was not available. You may arrange redelivery by visiting http://www.usps.com/redelivery or calling 800-ASK-USPS, or may pick up the item at the Post Office indicated on the notice. If this item is unclaimed after 15 days then it will be returned to the sender. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.
I was here then and Noone came by and no note was left ::)
They couldn't be honest and say "We apologize but your carrier forgot to deliver your package today so it will be delivered tomorrow."
Glad it wasn't something important..

I hope your arm is better!!   Those wrist skates are really dangerous.  I always get the kind you wear on the feet.
