We all appreciate your selflessness. At any moment, the world could be on the brink of collapse. It's a shame more people don't realize the effect they have on the cosmic balance of the universe.

You're welcome.
Just doing my part to maintain the world as we know it.

That was a good race! I've been trying to watch more and take an interest since my sons are so into it.

It was a good race!

Yeah, in this case those both make some foods better and easier.

The air fryer is great, actually going to try a pot roast in it tonight.

Did that a week or two ago in the instapot... never thought of doing one in the air fryer. Huh!

So what you're saying is

And do you feel fine or not?

Turned out great.

Happy Tuesday All.

Looks like the Chief is have a great time at sea. Wish we were all with him.

Tired though... but that's normal.

Good afternoon from a drizzly and chilly (7/46) Deutschland.

That's about all I got.

Okay, not quite. Pick up my car tomorrow. Have insurance, have plates. Have to pick up and then have the German customs inspect it, which is kinda funny...it's a new car, so not quite sure what they have to inspect.

 

[pkondz]

Morning boys.
What does everyone think of the new boards?
Is it just me, or do the smileys not work for everyone else too?
(I mean, clicking on the smileys to select one. Using BB code still works.)

Gotta make sure you're not making shipments for the cartels!

I like that the quote boxes just showed up instead of the code when I put them into the reply window. But yes, I don't get any emoji's to choose from. It just says "loading".

I could understand that in Mexico...not sure how many cartels are here.

I had not noticed anything new until you said something. Can't say as I can remember that many emojis to type them in manually. I remember the ones I use more often, but have to look up many others. I got the same thing: Loading....
Maybe there are so many, it takes a long time to load them.
I think I prefer the old way for quoting....if I wanted to quote several things, I could just highlight the whole block, paste and then add more quote and /quote sections.

Speaking of old...
Anyone have any contact with Norm, Jeff or Dan? Haven't heard anything from them in a while. I knoe Dan had an issue with groupme and also got sick. Jeff often goes several weeks, but I think he's even past due for that and Norm has been vacant since the new house.

Mixed feelings about that one...

How useless would that be?
Good news! We have thousands of new emojis!
Bad news... you can't use them.

Yeah... that.

Nope to all.

Yeah... that.

I can just highlight the parts I want to quote and hit the "quote" button that shows up. It puts each little section right in order for me. I find that quicker than going back and adding the commands.

Haven't spoken to any of them recently. I felt like Dan was either swamped with work or down with the sickness over the last couple of months. Norm will post some photos of his grandson on FB once in a while. And Jeff pops up on FB every once in a while to "like" a post but again, I haven't really talked to him. I should probably reach out.

A lot easier to do that when not on a phone.
Without the more precise control of a mouse, it's easier to highlight a full block (at least foe me)

New boards?

 

[pkondz]

Indeed it has. Very busy day at work and more than usually exhausting when watchin a trainee all day like a hawk.

This would be correct.

New boards?

Hadn't noticed? It's not super obvious, but they changed servers last night.
Few differences.

Morning, Gents! Been kind of MIA the last few days, but I got a wicked sinus infection this past weekend, which laid me out, and have been feeling, well....not good. I been feeling better since Monday, but still not 100%, so been tired more than usual at the end of the day.

Well, guys, off to the screams of babies and children at pediatrics. Can always tell when a baby or young toddler get his/her shots.

TTFN

Quick.. Hide the rum. Steve is back.

Too late, I found it. Bwahahahahaha

Glad to hear.
Sorry about your travel challenges, though. Thanks, it was a great trip, and surprise for the parental units.

I had (or thought I had) quoted a couple other things, but knowing me, I didn't have anything useful to say anyway.

Despite the travel issues, glad you had a good time.

Yeah travel was a bit of a problem, but otherwise it was a good trip.

Glad you had a good time (except for the travel shenanigans). Bet the folks were thrilled.

Great time was had by all. And yes, the folks were thrilled.


On a side note, I love the new addition to the boards. No longer having to copy and paste when doing multiple quotes is quite nice.

 

[docsoliday1]

Got my car today.

Sorry to hear that. I hope it's behind you soon!

Morning, gents.

After not seeing any movies for ages, I've seen 3 in 2 weeks.
Spiderman
The Batman
The Lost City

Lost City was fun, but not the laugh-out-loud flic I thought it was going to be. More of a... enjoyable/fun movie rather than funny. And that's okay.

Nice work! I've only seen Spiderman, but that was a fun one.

Moon Knight on Disney+ was interesting. I have no idea what's going on, but I was entertained.
