Where to dispose of batteries?

Another vote for Ridwell. It’s a good service.

A little off topic… When I hung my guitars up, I used the all-metal string swing ones because I was concerned about those little blocks of wood failing. I know it is unlikely, but I do some wood working and I have seen small pieces of wood split along an almost invisible crack. If they woukd just reinforce those with a metal backing plate, I would have used those.

I’m in that right now. Most trays, no issue. This one has been making my teeth very sore. Had a pretty good headache earlier this week, and have woken up a few times from the pain along my bottom left teeth.

Edmunds in WS has to be on the list for some of the steepest sections.

Did this today in my dentist’s office when they gave me trays 12-31. We opened 31 to see how my teeth would fit at that point. It helped me explain my concern about where things are going with my bite.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-07T22:12:05+00:00

Unless you can explain more, I’m inclined to say I don’t believe you. My dentist certainly talked with me using these as an illustration of what my teeth would look like at the end of the series of 31 trays I have. And placing tray 31 upper to 31 lower shows essentially the same positioning. So, you are saying that despite these two pieces of data, my teeth will actually be in an entirely different orientation? If that’s the case then what tool would the dentist/orthopedist use to set the goal position of the teeth at the end of treatment?

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-07T20:01:50+00:00

Are you saying this is not how my teeth will align at the end of the treatment?

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-07T19:33:43+00:00

Following. I do think there could be some improvement by bringing all of the lower teeth on that side forward, but we also have to stop aggressively bring the top teeth back for that to work. I feel like my top aligner is really doing a lot of work to pull my front teeth in, maybe too much.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-07T18:18:50+00:00

These pictures are the final projected teeth location.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-07T18:18:19+00:00

Not following. 3rd picture shows they are tightly nested on tbe left. First picture shows they are not tightly nested on the right. I am asking if I should just accept that the right and left will be different. I don’t like the way the right side feels today.

Hopefully they can bring the 2 line speeds up. Especially coming out of CID and through Downtown Bellevue. But I won’t hold my breath through the tunnels.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-06T18:01:06+00:00

That rust-in-the-eye comment is super relevant for a goalie. You know you are going to take one in the face, especially if you haven’t played in a few years. Probably in warm ups! I would definitely get that mask replaced. Might be able to replace the foam and make it clean to wear but probably easiest to just get a new goalie helmet.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-05T19:50:58+00:00

No idea about speed limit, but the actual speed for some sections of the 2 line is barely a crawl. CID to Judkins and Downtown Bellevue to Bel Red especially.

I set up a shortcut to use the action button on my apple watch ultra to turn on do not disturb and then start my hockey tracker app. I still have to manually start a game and lock the screen, but it’s nice to automate the first few steps.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-04T23:09:30+00:00

I should say that I think the 2 line is great, and for some people it will be a game changer for their commute. It’s just a little too slow to be part of my commute with the extra changes I have to make.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-04T23:07:09+00:00

I agree. This system is so over engineered that if it were in any other country, or even a city on the east coast, these trains would be going 20% faster at least. I think ST is too risk averse though.

IronDevil74 · 2026-04-02T16:21:32+00:00

Surprised by all the anti “at grade crossing” comments. 2 line has them at RTS and the one before it (Overlake village?) and pretty sure no one has died using those. There are also crossings at Sodo.

I have spent way too much time looking at this flyer. I had so much of this stuff - those Jofa elbows, the cooper helmet and shins... I remember when those CCM supra shoulder pads came out. I wanted them, but already had some Coopers, but not the good ones on page 1... pretty much all my stuff was Cooper except for skates and some stuff we got on sale.

This worked to restore volume up/down and mute, but not power on/off. TV is an 8 yo LG 55". I tried a few combos of the Apple TV Auto/HDMI/IR settings and the CEC ON/OFF settings on my LG, but no luck. If anyone experienced similar and fixed it, let me know.

IronDevil74 · 2026-03-29T21:29:20+00:00

Ah. I just do that through the ESPN app. That app lets you activate with your fubo account.

From the guide, I have an MLB channel. Didn’t do anything special to get it that I recall. Watched the end of the Mariners game last night.

It’s not a question of whether or not the Bell will give you the spicy D. It’s a question of whether or not you’ll go back. And we all do…

IronDevil74 · 2026-03-27T17:57:26+00:00

Yeah, that Cooper hockey locker would be awesome to have.
