I'm down here now, the ticket is for Long Island. I've driven in worse, but what would be a shoulder shrug back home seems to be 'End Times' here. We shut down early yesterday and opened late today. All of us from the northern lats are here. Only about five locals made it in.

Have mercy on you, and them, if they piss you off right proper. Good luck. I hear it's a bit warmer down there.

This one should be easy. I recommended my company NOT do a project because it wouldn't work as spec'd. Not what they wanted to hear so they went to the parent company. An engineer there said I was wrong and it would work. It didn't work and because we contracted the job, we had to spend a boatload of money to make it work. I'm just going down to see what the final outcome was.

Now you need something new to go with the vest. I think a nice 50cc Chinamen scooter.

Picked up a knife from the local Harley dealer yesterday before the trip. Took a picture of most of my collection as it is now. Missing from the pic is another rescue type knife and a multi tool.
This is the knife i got itself..

A 40L dry bag and a Berkley filet kit from Sierra Trading. Twenty bucks. I figure at sixty two years old with grandkids, I better learn how to filet a fish. When I was a kid, the rule was "you caught it, you clean it'. As I couldn't catch a cold as a kid, I never needed to learn how.
As for the dry bag, I have grandkids.

a 2 TB external drive for $5 which was being sold as non working. Figured at worst the drive was shot but i could use the enclosure...turned out to be the other way around. Could not get the drive to read on my big tower...but i then plugged the drive itself into my old tower and what do ya know? It worked..and it turned out to be full of movies and music. Score! Also bought a Nintendo DS portable for $40.
