    My uncle has been a snowbird down here for several years and I've done a lot of works with him but he came over for dinner and had a chance to just sit and talk, a lot of family history that I never would have known, was a good visit

    One of my Dads cousins came for a visit shortly before he died. Turned he had all the family secrets we never knew. Very interesting.

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

    I hope you both feel better soon. There are 4 or 5 viral diseases going around, so be careful, hope it isn't the puking one you have.

    Don't these hucksters ever take a day off. My wife got a call from Lea County Court to inform her he was putting out an arrest warrant since she didn't show up for jury duty last week. We haven't lived in Lea County for over 15 years. He insisted she stay on the line while we drove to the Pima County Sheriffs office to turn herself in. She thought she was having a heart attack. I hung up on the dude

    Only a judge can issue a warrant. I find it really hard to believe a judge called her today lol. It could have possibly been someone from a district attorney’s office, still unlikely today, but they can only request warrants not issue them.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    Sorry, Randy. I won't do that anymore.

    I'm sure he was phishing for info, I just had to laugh when he wanted her to turn herself in to the sheriff. Originally he wanted her to drive to Lea County, an 11 hour drive

    In hindsight its funny but when she thought she was having a heart attack, not so much

    Went through this with my sister a few weeks ago. I advised her to call the actual county sheriff, (she's never lived in that county) and ask him about it. The huckster hung up.

    Correct. Just nibbled on the housing, though. No effect of the operation of the pump. That rubber elbow can cost anywhere from $40 to $200. I'm going to remove it and cobble something together with a comparable ID and length. Hopefully, I don't have to just bite the bullet, pay $40 and wait a week for shipment. Ugh.

    This same thing happened to me a couple months ago. My neighbor is a deputy for an adjacent county. Asked him to assist and they've not called back. I'm not an official resident of California; here on orders.

    We caught the rat already. We did use peanut butter, lol, magical stuff. Now we are dealing with the aftermath.
