I heard about another way of showing your support for Chick-fil-A, if you didn't get by there today. Just turn on your headlights tonight as you drive.
I saw a BUNCH of people doing that last night, so I guess the word is getting out.

I'm going to show mine by flushing the toilet right after I use it. Such a small gesture can go a long way in achieving peace and harmony.

To avoid Olympics spoilers, I have stopped reading/watching the news, except around midnight after Bob Costas says goodnight to America. Apparently I missed something about Chic-fil-A? :?

Summer seems to have arrived in Oregon, finally. Temps will push 100 today. Time for a motorcycle ride.

Central A/C went out. I swapped the fuses and then had power and compressor fan, but the compressor wasn't compressing.

Called a guy at @5PM. He came out, swapped the capacitor (had it on his truck! :D ), and back on came the A/C!

Cool guy, cool air. Awesome!

My wife even worked in a "flux capacitor/Back-to-the-Future" joke... :lol:

Winding up a visit here in Richardson, Tx. Stopped here to visit some old high school band buds and to visit my nephew and his family. We'll be heading back home tomorrow after church.
