Just took these on my iPhone each with the phone rotated differently.



Both look right side up to me.

Her red heart shaped rabies tag looks like a broach in the right picture.

We went to the PCA breakfast this morning. The table next to us was all women and the table was reserved for the liars club. I stopped at their table and asked them were all the men were. One of the instantly replied the all the men had said they would be there, and likely were abducted by terrorists or maybe the CIA.

Sorry Richard, it's just a natural way to want to do it since I use the volume button for a shutter.



Hope you had fun at breakfast Glen, I do miss the PCA there. The group here is bigger and not as much fun from what I've seen.

It's snowing here. More motivation for me to get the heck out of this place.

Stijn!!

Good day to watch sports. The F1 qualifying and the Sebring 12 hours. Sebring is having rain so much like Petite Le Mans the 911s are doing good.

I had to stop watching the race so I could change the oil on the Elky and lube the front end. Then to have some fun I edged and mowed the yard. Golly what fun.

Right now I still have 9.5 hours of Sebring to watch. Since I can skip through and commercials and stupid interviews I can watch it much faster.

My wife is watching a bunch of goofy games. Mutant tall men trying to get a large round ball through a hoop. It looks pretty easy for them since most of them can easily just stuff it through by jumping up and shoving it through by hand. What is goofy is they stand at a line and toss it from a few feet away while everyone else just stands in a line waiting for him to toss it. They miss the shot as often as they make it. I would think they could practice just a little and get 99% of those shots.

It is just a silly game. The sport of racing is much more interesting.

30 minutes to go before the finish of Sebring. Interesting race.

Wow, after I posted the line above I noticed it was post #130,000.

I can't remember when I last put any fire water in the tojo, the guages looked like she was more empty than this.



She still had 28 litres' in her.

On all my other cars the Get Gas light and beep happens at 50 miles to go. On the Cayenne it starts bugging me at 72 miles. My Dad told me it is just as easy to keep the top half full, but this makes me feel like the gas tank is smaller than it actually is.

Only need to top it up once a month. Have been driving a week with the get gas light coming on and have only used 20 of those 70 miles.

Just finished watching F1. Think they change rules just to F with people.

Tha main tank in the tojo has a warning light at about 10 litres left. The sub-tank has nothing other than an analog guage. The warning light was on.

I watched the GP for a little while then when it got boring I went back outside and finished packing up the tojo with camping stuff. Forgot to come back in to see if it got exciting again. I think I got distracted by a Guinness or three.

Holey BeeGeeBus

Working on a proposal to implement user training where I work to train users to protect them from scams. Overall it looks good, but this training stuff gets expensive quick! Especially the ones that send random bogus emails to keep users alert.

It was cool to see Haas win 8 points on their debut. Some teams go years and get no points.

Don't understand the conversions very well, but looks like about $1.07US/gal.

Just put my monthly 20 gals in for $40.

But it's cents per liter, not gallon

Said I wasn't too good at this conversion stuff...

At current exchange rate. 140.9 c/L is $1.07 USD/L.
There are 3.785 liters in a gallon. $1.07 x 3.785 = $4.05 USD/gallon.

That better?

Jeff would have paid $140.18 USD for 34.6 Gallons.

Four months ago it was 1.89/L

Down/over in the big smoke its about 25-30 cents/litre cheaper than the boonies.

When we visit the fossils, they are always trying to tell us where the cheap fuel is. I keep telling them "it's all bloody cheap".
