    Home Depot could not even find a box before shipping this

    And live bees, IIRC. Imagine getting a package that goes BZZZZZZZ! when gently shaken.

    The Humor Thread

    I hate to be the Debbie Downer here....... but this *IS* a far more real problem than most people realize, and it doesn't take much. More and more municipalities are doing away with parking meters and going to online apps & kiosks. Short story is be careful about assuming QR codes are legit...

    As cooler weather approaches here is a fabulous chocolatier

    The premise alone makes it seem worthwhile to stop in.

    Video series or Movies

    We discovered that we quite enjoyed the 10 episode series _Nautilus_. Yes, it takes great liberties with the source material, get over it, it's a pretty well done production. If you're a SciFi type, _The Expanse_ was good. _Foundation_....... again, liberties taken with the source material...

    Interesting statistics, thanks! Speaking for me, I greatly prefer most of online activity on either a laptop or full size desktop/tower. Then again, I'm an 80+ wpm touch typist for at least 45 years, and I really dislike non-tactile keyboards.

    Any biscuit fans out there?

    I stopped buying tube biscuits decades ago. 30+ years ago, I was sharing an apartment with a college buddy (yes, we're still on speaking terms,) trying to sort out dinner one night. Lessee, leftover chicken. How about chicken a la king? He says I'll go get some tube biscuits...... no, no...

    Brisket in BigZ

    Larry, I've taken to husking fresh corn, and directly grilling over medium to medium high heat, until the kernel get some caramelization on them. Our favorite method these days.

    Any biscuit fans out there?

    I also make biscuits fairly regularly, based on buttermilk baking powder recipes. And use lard & butter...... Blueberry lemon biscuits are pretty darned good. If there's a dirty little secret about making biscuits, it's if you're working at it, you're doing it wrong.

    SLICING KNIFE. Mercer, Dexter, Messermeister or Victorinox?

    I have a Mercer slicer, albeit a slightly longer model: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/mercer-culinary-m13914-millennia-14-granton-edge-slicer-knife/470M13914.html Apparently a bit of a bargain at $34 each right now (watch out for S&H.) I am quite happy with mine.

    Well, fuses are generally considered to be consumable items. Personally, I don't expect vendors to supply replacement fuses, even under warranty. And if I don't have replacements on the shelf here, they're close by. The bigger question is just WHY did (or does) that fuse blow? Without...
