First day of the speakeasy was quiet. But I did get the smart TV and the new satellite receiver hooked up and had a couple of beers with Lady Buckethead.

Back in the Shed-Bo for nightcaps.

Going down to 48 F tonight. Summer is slipping away.

It's really a walking city. The streets curve around,change names constantly etc. But walking the city is glorious, really. (3 seasons of the year anyway. In the winter, you don't want to walk OR drive.)

Very true about the Constitution 44 gun Frigate with 24 pounders and amazingly thick oak sides.

All I remember about Boston is what a biatch it was to drive through

Good News story of the day. Chase Bank had decided to enter the credit card market in Canada. Turns out that they weren't successful enough to continue operating in Canada and decided to just shut it all down and wipe out any debts of cardholders!

Fiddle your own stick

Well fiddleheads then.

Changed the battery on my Passport today, does that make you happy?

Sort of. I mean it’s better.

[grover5]

Try that with an iPhone.

That’s just not nice.

We’ll be in the mid 50s.

Amazing, if that's true!

Oh and 👋

You spelt it wrong

[Tim-ANC]

So one time when I went to Dominican Republic our return flight was delayed, problem with the aircraft. We sat in the airport for hours (nothing there in the small Dominican Republic airport) as we waited, for later we realize the next incoming flight from Montreal (AirTransat). On the flight, some of us figured out they sent an engine tech. So the incoming flight comes in, the engine tech gets off and goes out on the tarmac and starts to work on our plane. He opens up the engine (looked similar to your picture but the engine of course still in there) and fumbles around with something for 20 minutes, then he closes it up, then we board and off we go back to Canada. On the return flight he (the engine tech) was crashed out across the seats of the last row. They basically sent him off on a service call down to the Dominican Republic and back.

Yeah, been on those trips. Re-seat a connector on a ignitor box. Spin it, lift the fuel lever, hit the ignition, lightoff

I have never had a clean AirTransat trip. Another time on AirTransat we were hours late leaving Toronto because of a "mechanical problem". A few of us watched as they brought one of those stair-trucks up to the plane and then had a few guys start to screw around with the cockpit windshield. Then they told us it was going to be a few more minutes as they fixed the windshield but by now the guys with the truck had already packed up and left and it was obvious they weren't coming back. They kept telling us it would be a few more minutes as they fixed the mechanical problem (but it was obvious to those that were paying attention that no one was working on the plane). Finally a bunch of hours later, another AirTransat flight arrived from somewhere and de-planned and then they put us on that airplane to get us departed, while our plane just continued to sit there. I am convinced that sometimes the airlines specifically don't fully tell the the gate crew what's going on as a strategy to not have to fully deal with passengers for the real situation details.

Sounds like a window heat (for anti-ice) problem. I've worked for several Airlines. Most were badly mis-managed

I should do that too, though surprised it's it's holding up well after 4.5 years.

[Tim-ANC]

Blue Bombers beat the Stampeders tonight 26-24.

Nice! How they doing in the div?

[Tim-ANC]

Did they freeze Anita Bryant into the Floridian ice?

No ice in FL
