It got up to 51F, so I took a couple of motorcycles out for rides. Stopped at the local dealership and bought a new pair of winter gloves to replace the 5-year old ones. I'm pretty happy with Olympia as a brand, and just about always buy Olympia gloves. Naturally, had to go riding some more to break them in! :D

I threw away my favourite small electric frying pan because I thought it had quit working. It was old, so I figured it just finally given up.

So.....a couple of days later I tried something else in the outlet....it did not work...so..I figured there must be something wrong with the outlet...

:roll: Krap...I threw away my frying pan for nothing.....

Tonight it occured to me to check the breaker.....well slap myself on the forehead....it was the breaker all along....

Spent the day wondering why Victory would make the Hammer 8-Ball available with only the 5-speed transmission instead of the 6-speed that comes standard on the Hammer and Hammer S. I guess that's a $5,000 option. Of course, it gets the same chrome exhaust on the blacked-out 8-Ball dress, but not the same 6-speed transmission. Thanks.

Dropped the kids off at school -
Spent one vigorous hour at the gym -
While still off-duty, responded to a "possible code 10" (dead person), which turned out to be a full cardiac arrest. Pumped a chest for several minutes, until chief officer determined to "call" the arrest. Watched as family members said their goodbyes... -
Back home to update online nonsense, take a shower, and get ready for my on-duty shift at firehouse.

It's only 12 PM...
FIRST RESPONDERS DO IT WITH LIGHTS AND SIRENS!! :smoke:
Find 'em hot, leave 'em wet...
