Here's a headline that talked to me; except I'm not so stupid as to try to hide my knife. When we were in China I forgot to pack my Swiss Army knife in my luggage one time. When I admitted this to our guide, he recommeded leaving it behind. He even called a friend to come 'find' it. Well, it was a great way for the 'friend' to get a nice pocket knife but I figure it would probably found it's way to a landfill otherwise so I guess I'm ok with the friend having it. I've had two Swiss Amry knives: one from when I was about 21 and visited Switzerland for the first time; the other from my mid 40t's after the first started being kind of sloppy. Well, now I've got a third. Same version but just tighter. Too bad we can't get a new body like we get a new knife! LOL!
Things have been rather quiet around the homestead these days. We pulled out the over-the-stove microwave/vent hood and replaced it with a regular stove vent hood. The old one didn't do a very good job of venting the stove AND somehow grease found it's way into the thing to drip into the microwave. Weird but nasty. So now we have a dedicated vent hood. I'm really sorry to say it took us all day to change it out! Guess that we made almost every error known to humans. I even made a template which did help in positioning the screws but was a bit off. Gee, wish the maker had thought to give us one. $400 noisy POS!
We are waiting, impatiently, for a new double oven to replace the one we currently have. The new guy will have convection in both ovens and the self cleaning feature as well. The current ones are just a pain in the a55. We should get them next week and after the torture of installing them, I'll post a before and after photo.
Gotta wander off now. It's almost 22:00 and time for old guys to be in bed. Take care!
