Turkey phoned me today To tell me there was a problem with my social insurance number. Really, I am Canadian, not a Turk, the government communicates with me in French, not English, also the government does not know my cell phone number. Sigh, that was the second call this morning about that...

We always have this discussion with the Misses, I tell her it’s a cleaner we use with soap, every time we use it, why would we need to clean it? She is not convinced. What do you guys say? I know slow day, well...

We have older Christmas lights and newer. The newer have the “polarized” plug, the older not. I can’t connect the newer into the older. I am very tempted to take a file and make the polarized plug into a non-polarized one. Can someone explain to me why Christmas lights actually need a polarized...

I don’t have to go to the Nutcracker!

I was cold smoking cheese yesterday and this happened The smoke comes from the pellets which are supposed to smolder When I opened the Kamado there were flames in 2 spots in the pellet maze. Maybe the vents were opened too much giving too much air or an ember fell on the charcoal underneath...

Took the dog for a hike today to the top of a small mountain. We both really enjoyed it, she pulls like a tractor, like all sled dogs. Got to do it more often. We were on a hike last Saturday and took a side trail which ended up being too technical, too many big rocks to navigate over and...

Really, your algorithms can’t figure out that the Probability Of Success is Zero? Sigh, what do you expect for...

Ok, I am on a roll. After the shampoo rant this is the Apple rant. Let’s say I go to Costco, or Best Buy online or whatever. There is a window that pops up asking me if it can use my location. But it does NOT work, if I say yes I still have to enter my postal code or chose my location. It NEVER...
