    Having to take a break every 1/2 hour after moderate exertion.

    Being told to expect a package on a specific day and not receiving it on said day. Then checking the tracking number and finding the USPS is still awaiting the package...

    If it’s being sent surepost put the tracking number into ups and see what they come up with. Surepost and another use UPS and then hand off at usps usually at your local post office

    Thanks Rusty, UPS says June 6th. It's a bummer, I'm really looking forward to what I ordered.

    Having to disable and re-enable a device in the device manager to get the battery indicator to show up in the taskbar.

    Trying to print out the manual for my stupid projection alarm clock, finding the manual online, telling it to print page 4, where it tells me how to set the time and time zone. Somehow, it decided to print all 24 pages of the manual, plus another 6 pages of the manual for the remote temp transmitter, and the same thing again but in Spanish. Too bad my printer is faster than me at figuring out how to cancel a print job. Talk about wasted paper and ink.

    My heart goes out to you, Peter. Printer ink isn't cheap.

    The best thing about this mess is that it's a laser printer.

    They're great, don't have to get up and put on your glasses to check the time.

    Cleaning gutters, my ancient gutter guards are not doing the job they were designed for. Any suggestions for replacements that don't cost a fortune?

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

    Probably cheaper to hire someone to clean them for you each year.

    I’m not sure I’d go that far…but the lack of punishment that’s went in for so long has let things get out of hand.

    True. Just a little emotionally driven hyperbole on my part.
