I often wish that we had radiant cooling.

My family would all huddle around the wood burner at my grandparent's house (a few miles down the road) and ride out the bad weather there. I only remember once or twice having to spend more than a day or two there because of weather.
Plus my grampa was an electronics genius. He kept his house running with car batteries in super bad weather (He had an array of car batteries that would charge while utilities were on. I remember him switching to battery power during bad thunderstorms and stuff (he ran his ham radio and the house lights off of them).
Funny - That is about what I do. can go quite a while on batteries,.. just don't have enough. I'm fine without all the lights and such... nice to have that down time.
ETA: Being a HAM has it's perks.

Here we huddle around the pool trying not to sweat.
-
Actually it is nice today, with the fans on it isn't bad at all.
-
Doing some testing here, guys, so don't be surprised if the site changes a bit. Just testing something out to see how things look, so don't freak out
-
Okay, that image is way too big. But we can put up ads on the sidebar, which is what we are testing. xByte just provided us some sample images to put up for a few minutes to see how things would look.

Wow, that image is huge. Pushed the entire column over a bit.

I just shrank it a bit.

Found out that Greyhound lost @thanksajdotcom luggage. They think that it went on to San Francisco when he got off of the bus early. So hopefully they will find it soon.

Still a bit big but I think I would just have to get used to it. I liked the text being on the center of the screen before.
-
Looking at that new ad on ML.... yuck. I already know Xbyte exists.
-
Trying a real add now, not just a logo. Looks a little bit more normal

Eh, just have to get used to it. I don't mind the ads just wish the thread was in the middle of the screen and the ads were offset to one side.

Almost lvl up on SW, 16 whole points to Thai. Unsure if I care enough to try and bump it.

There is tweaking to be done. This is a very first test of just popping up an ad-like image.
-
Latest ad does not seem too bad. Mostly unobtrusive.

Not in the mood for coffee this morning. I am craving a right proper cuppa and a digestif.

Greyhound lost nothing. The traveler got off the bus prior to the ticketed location. It is up to the traveler to ensure that their luggage gets off with them in that instance.

He did, they had already lost it and it was no longer on the bus with him. The passengers were not allowed to manage their own luggage on this trip and they sent the luggage with a different bus to San Fran rather than letting him move it from bus to bus with him. But did so without notification so he didn't get to know that until he got off the bus and his luggage was gone.
-
They are hoping that the luggage arrives in San Francisco. My understanding is that it is not tracked at this time and the stated rules on Greyhound's site were not followed by Greyhound and so the system is not operating as intended so there is some question as where the luggage is.
