Golly I love bureaucrats.

We are trying to get set up as a vendor for the State of Oklahoma. Any state agency by law now has to pay on-line. That is fine with me. BUT....

I filled out a two page long document with the agency we are scheduled to do a project with soon. They did their part and now the state sends me a link to a web site to download a PDF to fill out. I get it filled out and signed and I have to take it to our bank for them to sign and the bank has to fax the form to the state. In the meantime I have to set up an account with yet another user name and password to then go through several pages of stuff. I had to enter the same address on each page. Why not just have a button, you the same address for everything? That would be logical. Enter the FEI number and enter the vendor number and on and on.

As a taxpayer I am glad it is a pain and documented who is doing what, but what a pain as a vendor. Oh well, that is why I make the big paycheck.

We had a temp of 66 degrees at 9:20 AM and a total of .81 inches of rain. It is only 71 degrees at 1:00 PM on August first. Astonishing. Wonderful.



This is in the garage now. The Panamara is a long vehicle. The rear seats have huge leg room. Mrs Carrera had to take her Macan in for a factory recall. It is something to do with a flange on the gas tank that the part supplier to Porsche had some possible leaks under the right conditions. They are going to fix it and it takes some time so they let her have a Panamara as a loaner.
