I nearly got t-boned and had to stop. First red of the day.
The technical folks on the project tried so hard over the last several weeks to sell something to the client and finally succeeded. What they neglected to mention and I only just uncovered is that this new way requires a technical person on their end to do infrastructure maintenance and troubleshooting. Basically, a person that they don't have. So now I'll have to go back with my tail between my legs and tell them we didn't give them all the facts before they made this decision.

Today is Friday, July 17, the 199th day of 2020. There are 167 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On July 17, 1944, during World War II, 320 men, two-thirds of them African-Americans, were killed when a pair of ammunition ships exploded at the Port Chicago Naval Magazine in California.
On this date:
In 1717, George Frideric Handel’s “Water Music” was first performed by an orchestra during a boating party on the River Thames (tehmz), with the musicians on one barge, and King George I listening from another.
In 1862, during the Civil War, Congress approved the Second Confiscation Act, which declared that all slaves taking refuge behind Union lines were to be set free.
In 1918, Russia’s Czar Nicholas II and his family were executed by the Bolsheviks.
In 1945, following Nazi Germany’s surrender, President Harry S. Truman, Soviet leader Josef Stalin and British Prime Minister Winston S. Churchill began meeting at Potsdam in the final Allied summit of World War II.
In 1962, the United States conducted its last atmospheric nuclear test to date, detonating a 20-kiloton device, codenamed Little Feller I, at the Nevada Test Site.
In 1975, an Apollo spaceship docked with a Soyuz spacecraft in orbit in the first superpower link-up of its kind.
In 1981, 114 people were killed when a pair of suspended walkways above the lobby of the Kansas City Hyatt Regency Hotel collapsed during a tea dance.
In 1996, TWA Flight 800, a Europe-bound Boeing 747, exploded and crashed off Long Island, New York, shortly after departing John F. Kennedy International Airport, killing all 230 people on board.
In 1997, Woolworth Corp. announced it was closing its 400 remaining five-and-dime stores across the country, ending 117 years in business.
In 2007, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was indicted by a federal grand jury in Richmond, Virginia, on charges related to competitive dogfighting. (Vick later admitted bankrolling the dogfighting operation and helping to kill six to eight dogs; he served 23 months in federal custody, the last 60 days in home confinement.)
In 2009, former CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite died in New York at 92.
In 2014, Eric Garner, an unarmed Black man accused of selling loose, untaxed cigarettes, died shortly after being wrestled to the ground by New York City police officers; a video of the takedown showed Garner repeatedly saying, “I can’t breathe.” (Garner’s family received $5.9 million from the city in 2015 to settle a wrongful death claim.) All 298 passengers and crew aboard Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 were killed when the Boeing 777 was shot down over rebel-held eastern Ukraine; both Ukraine’s government and pro-Russian separatists denied responsibility.
-
Ten years ago: Federal authorities in Puerto Rico arrested alleged drug kingpin Jose Figueroa Agosto after a decade-long chase through the Caribbean. Thousands of gays and lesbians from around Europe marched through Poland’s capital, Warsaw, to demand equal rights and more tolerance in the heavily Roman Catholic nation.
Five years ago: More than 1,000 people attended an interfaith service in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to mourn four Marines who had been shot to death at a reserve facility by a Kuwaiti-born gunman. A suicide bomber with the Islamic State group attacked a crowded marketplace in Iraq’s Diyala province, killing 115 people.
One year ago: Mexican drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was sentenced to life behind bars in a U.S. prison. Prosecutors in Massachusetts dropped a case accusing actor Kevin Spacey of groping a young man at a resort island bar in 2016; the accuser had refused to testify about a missing cellphone that defense lawyers said would support Spacey’s claims of innocence.

That's true. It's not a life and death situation. So maybe things are looking up after all.

Closest ones to you are in Raleigh or Outer Banks NC. Road trip?
They are also offering franchises. You could be the Crumblecookie King of the Northeast!

Rick, you like La Gran Llave? 10ers of both the maduro and connie offered up as weekly specials at the Sis. Price OK, not Cheapy-Cheapo.

I think the economy is really starting to bite. I'm watching gun auctions, and bid levels for serious collector pieces are pretty distinctly depressed. If I wasn't nearly $5K into various gun commitments right now, I'd be bidding. But I've got one 1911 in for restoration, just bought another, I have a rifle build and a handgun build in progress, a rifle having a new front sight put on, new sights for my carry gun that need to be installed, a bid in for a percussion revolver, money going away for hunting trips this fall, a trip to Front Sight coming in September. Then there's money going out for home improvement projects. I'm doing my part for the economy.
But damn, there are some deals out there right now on guns.

Neither can I. My #2 son has gotten quite good at it, but he's making pizza for himself 3-4 times a week.

Someone at our shop was looking for a Taurus Judge Public Defender for his wife, can't find one anywhere in stock. Guess it depends on the make/model/caliber. Ammo is still in short supply also.

I think the economy is really starting to bite. I'm watching gun auctions, and bid levels for serious collector pieces are pretty distinctly depressed. If I wasn't nearly $5K into various gun commitments right now, I'd be bidding. But I've got one 1911 in for restoration, just bought another, I have a rifle build and a handgun build in progress, a rifle having a new front sight put on, new sights for my carry gun that need to be installed, a bid in for a percussion revolver, money going away for hunting trips this fall, a trip to Front Sight coming in September. Then there's money going out for home improvement projects. I'm doing my part for the economy.
But damn, there are some deals out there right now on guns.
Someone at our shop was looking for a Taurus Judge Public Defender for his wife, can't find one anywhere in stock. Guess it depends on the make/model/caliber. Ammo is still in short supply also.
We're all stocked up here. Need to go on an ammo run myself.

I hate pizza dough, I can never get it round or thin enough. 😞
Neither can I. My #2 son has gotten quite good at it, but he's making pizza for himself 3-4 times a week.
fuck it. it'll eat.
It's roundish, that'd be close enough for me.

As a firearms collector, I'm always looking out for firearms of a type employed in historical events. Getting the actual firearm used in a historical event is for far better-heeled, or luckier, collectors than I. But getting the same type can be doable, even at a bargain, and that's more fun to because then I can shoot the weapons.
Take this example. Slide-action rifles are not terribly popular among American shooters, who tend to favor the accuracy and durability of bolt rifles for hunting and semi-automatic rifles for other shooting sports. So even though there aren't many Remington Gamemasters around, prices on them tend to be low. My interest in them? Well, I find slide action rifles interesting, and also, a Remington Gamemaster was used in a very, very famous assassination in April 1968. I know, it's a bit morbid. But history often is.
This one isn't original. It has a custom stock. But still, it interests me, and with 3 days to go on the auction, it's at $270.

Fortunately for me, I already own all - or at least most - of the current-production guns I'll likely ever want. Now I'm looking for specific pieces from specific eras, or related somehow to specific events.
Of course, in times like these, it does help to cultivate relationships with local gun dealers. If your local dealer likes you, you get phone calls when they have a line on something.

For carry? Speer Gold Dot or Hornady XTP. 124-grain in 9mm and 185-grain in .45 ACP. I don't like 230-grain for carry in .45 ACP because at standard loads it's too slow and too easily disrupted by clothing. Higher-pressure loads that will get the big bullet moving are hard on guns and hard to get back on target.

That's the kicker for me. The vanpool only costs me $150 a month, which given the distance of 54 miles one-way is a monumental savings in gas and maintenance. But it's still a total of 3 hours of commute time on the average day. That sucks, not just for the toll it takes on me personally, but on productivity for my employer.
