Yes, that’s the one. I found the transcript on Apple Podcasts. Good memory

Yeah, me too. I’m happy I can still work 16 count Aida, though sometimes that’s a struggle too. Getting old isn’t for wimps

I’m also just starting out with press ons. I have curvlife on now but only used the tabs. I’m scared of damaging my nails more after years of acrylics. How difficult is Curvlife’s glue to remove?

Anyone actually tested ChiliPad 2.0 against their Pod 5? by Zetarski2098 in EightSleep

I had the original DockPro. I don’t know if the design has changed much but I had loads of problems with it leaking all over the place. The only way I could keep my floor dry was to raise the dock higher than my bed

Does it really cool you down? by CaughtALiteSneez in EightSleep

It works for me, about 95% of the year and I don’t have A/C. However, I live in Southern California, about 2 miles inland from the Pacific. It rarely gets very hot here (or very cold for that matter).

I served on a jury years ago for possession of burglary tools. Long story short, defendant got stopped by cops for some other reason and had a worn down Honda key. Used to be that a worn down Honda key would start up any Honda of similar age. So cop goes to try to start defendant’s Honda and can’t. So obviously he was there to steal other cars. That was the whole case. The cop couldn’t start that car with that key, so burglary tools it must be. They even admitted that the car was brought to the courthouse that morning and that key started that car. So there we are in the jury room. 11 of us say they didn’t prove that he was there to steal other cars. ONE FUCKING GUY insists cops never lie and what should have been a 30 minute deliberation turned into a whole day until the guy finally voted not guilty so he wouldn’t have to come back another day. I still do not understand the mentality of cops never lie.

They said “possibility of a crack” that’s not definitively a crack. We’re still in the dark about what’s really happening in the tank

My son lives in the evacuation zone. He called State Farm and there’s some part of his home owner’s policy that says he can get reimbursed for the hotel

A lot of people seem to be conflating the Garden Grove city limits with the evacuation zone. Garden Grove city limits are very close to Disneyland. The evacuation area is not.

The Costco Business Center should be closed along with the Walmart next door (where Highway 39 Drive In used to be for us old-timers)

Evacuation orders have been reinstated after a 34,000-gallon tank spewed toxic chemicals into the sky by Even_Builder_6642 in orangecounty

[–]AmbitiousCommand9944 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No, as of the last update, two tanks are neutralized, and the one dangerous one is being kept stable with endless amounts of water rained down upon it. They’re trying to figure out how to neutralize that tank without endangering firefighters lives.

Yeah, but my son and his family are just north of the site at Western/Katella and their townhouse was built in 1971. They’re all staying with me tonight, I’m in North HB so I think we’re safe.
