    Busy day continues into the night with hvac repair. Heard a noise and smelt something burning through the air vent. Found two burnt wires at the heating coil. Replaced the wires and pulled the coil to replace it.

    Fun with pressurization. Had a door seal fail yesterday. Couple hours to replace it, 12 or so for sealant to cure, hour test flight, better but not quite right. More sealant to fill all the little gaps that add up to a big gap, and more cure time. Another quick test hop this evening and my medics get a sea level pressure cabin up to 12,000 ft.

    I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

    Put plastic cover in the doggie door to prevent the dogs from going outside and antagonizing the skunk that I smell out there. Luckily the dog that had already gone out there and barked her head off didn't get sprayed otherwise I'd be closing the barn doors after all the horses had gone.

    Troubleshoot a network issue at home where the Roku stopped streaming and the wireless Internet went down. Traced it to the cable modem box enabling it's internal, unused Wi-Fi networks which were stepping all over my own mesh wireless router. Just glad that I didn't spend a lot of time trying to trace down this annoying problem.

    Looks like break-up. Got your big rubber boots ready?

    One of my dogs cornered a skunk in the side yard and got sprayed tonight while I was vHerfing in the garage. Had to whip up a batch of de-skunkifying spray and take care of that mess. The living room is going to smell of skunk for a bit.

    You'd think they would learn. I had a dog once that loved to go to the beach and roll in rotting seagull. He'd come back intolerably redolent and proud of it. Maybe your dogs like the smell?

    Got called in at 1115 last nite (my on call stint didn’t start till midnite) to fix a pitot tube heat issue my “cow-orker” couldn’t figure out. Got into the hangar, no one here, no written turnover, no idea what he’d done or taken apart. Great way to start the day on 45 minutes of sleep. I basically started at step 1 and troubleshot it down to a bad relay. Took me a grand total of 4 hours to shoot, fix, close up & get the paperwork blessed. Gettin’ too old for this late night partying....

    Thanks....but it's not hard. Angry pixies in one side but not out the other when they oughta be is pretty telling. That and the wonderful aroma of fried electrical components. ..🤣🤣🤣

    Although I was compelled to put an "awesome" on this comment, I do have to admit that at times I find it overused, but, what the heck? We're just an awesome group.

    Which brings me to a boring thought, I often don't respond to what I see on the "What are you smoking..." threads. Everyone is putting awesome, and it may well be, but half the time I have to look up the cigars that y'all are smoking. If I know the cigar, and think it's awesome, I put "awesome", or "like". But, heck, I don't know if it's awesome.

    At this point many of you may think that this is the most awesome dry-beg ever, but it isn't. My cooler's full.

    I must say, though, that watching the what are you smoking threads have introduced me to some stuff I wouldn't have otherwise tried. Most notably, @Usaf06 's love for BLTC got me interested, then someone sent me a Bishop's Blend, and Zowie! Awesome!

    I notice people using the "awesome" button on not (my opinion) awesome cigars far to often.

    Perhaps it's the fact that said person is smoking a cigar that the viewer deemed to be awesome and had nothing to do with the cigar.

    I kind of agree with this, but obviously taste is subjective, so I assume they like it which means it’s awesome for them at least. Sometimes I’ll hold off though if it’s something I think is just not good under any circumstances.
