Within about 5 minutes Saturday, we saw the new, electric Ford Mustang Mach-E and then on the highway passed a new Bronco Sport. I was rather surprised by how small it was, but I have to say it looked really good design-wise. I can't wait to see the actual big one in person.

Right? I saw one on the highway last week and was surprised at how tiny it is.

Bronco Sport is just an Escape clone. ;)
I saw one at the Bronco West gathering in Buena Vista. Not really impressed with it at all. Basically a "soccer mom" vehicle.

Put new tires on the bar hopper this weekend. It was more of a PITA than you'd think. Seems to be an excessive number of previous patches. Now all I need is bars to hop.

My office lady can't figure out how to maximize a window. She somehow shifted the whole window so half of it was off the screen, hiding the print button.

She didn't do any work for 2 hours because she thought quickbooks was broken...

I don't miss fixing computers
I'm from the era before personal computers, so the though of fixing one brings on the visual of tossing it off a building, or running the damn thing over with fork lift.

Good times are had destroying things with a Fork Lift, just sayin'.

I played the original Pong, and the Atari, my dad had one of the very first Texas Instruments calculators that had LED numbers, and after much begging, we finally got a Commodor 64, and a word processing cartridge... had to wire it into the TV....Printing you ask? Ha! That noisy ass dot matrix printer didn't make an appearance until I was nearly in college. Hell I had to go to a friends house to type my papers on his Apple computer just so I didn't have to go to the library to use the IBM Selectric II typewriter, because handing in a paper from a dot matrix printer wasn't acceptable.

Changed motor oil and diff fluid on the Bayou this evening. The engine oil was about like tar and the diff fluid was mostly water. Yuck.

We ran a couple quarts of multi-oil through the engine for a couple laps then put in some actual ATV 10w40 and changed the oil filter.

Also ordered $170 in parts for it, mainly steering related and some seals to get it to quit leaking.

Yeah. I'm trying not to put too much in it till we see if it's gonna put the rod through the top of the case.

Although, as hard as Kaylee has been running it, I think it's gonna hold up for a bit. Just gotta get it to steer and stop better. Got two bad TREs and the king pins are shot. /==\ :oops:

^^^^^^^ 100% I too had pong/super pong, Atari . One of them had the first computerized football game with about 8-10 different pre-programmed play's and the Tank battle game . Where did the time go ?? Anyway I'd be the first to say that I'm computer Illiterate, although I used electronic equipment on the boat I didn't grow up with a computer and I'm alway's asking question's or for help when I don't know how to do something. Right now I don't know how to HIGH-LIGHT ? someone's name when I mention them in a post but I can add/subtract or multiply without using a calculator or my finger's and I can tell time off a real clock ; I'd love to be in my late 20's/early 30's again and retain the common sense and knowledge that I've built up thru my 60 year's on this spinning sphere of land and water.

I have a cabinet in my kitchen that my dad keeps stocked w/ crap that nobody should eat. So I know about that life.

UFCK I need the basement to be finished so that they can get out of my house and into their apartment.

Want real fun? I had someone manage to move a window completely off the monitor (before multi-monitor was really a thing). And of course Windows wouldn't let the mouse move off the monitor to be able to drag it back... And Windows helpfully remembered that position so a reboot wouldn't bring it back into view...

In Windows 10, hover over the task bar icon. When you see the window preview, right click it. Select 'Move' and press an arrow key. Now you can use the mouse to relocate it on the viewable screen.
 

BEEFY

I Smile when Gasoline Can Freeze
Brought my sisters Aveo into the garage last night to start on changing the clutch. It has been sitting since Nov 2019, had the winters put on 2 weeks before the clutch let go. I went to pull the tires and 6 of the 8 lugs on the front snapped off way to easily so tried the rear and 5 of the 8 snapped. And this was just using a long handled ratchet. ufck tire shops and their impacts and lack of anti seize on stuff.
