Similar here. While in college I worked for a newspaper developing. Pretty cool as they let me use the facility for my own work as well. I just had to pay for the disposables. I didn’t completely switch util sensors got over 24mp. At that point the resolution was as good as film. I took one of my old enlargers and made it into a vertical camera mount for doing close up videos of products. The enlarger head is stowed away in the basement. Really dig working with the Adobe suite. So many possibilities!!!

Today we got some DHS assistance to pay our Gas and Electric bills for this month and part of next month. It’s sinking in, I’m officially retired. We were quite happy when we left the DHS office :smiley:

Being retired and actually getting assistance is awesome! :tada: I have seen way too many retired folk that get turned down, especially when they have social security, a mortgage, medicare, medicare supplement, and need more after medical bills.
It is wonderful to see that help is still there for the people who already worked their asses off!:+1:

I was beginning to lose hope.

We kept him after that, too. Kept him until he ran away and got picked up by the doggie po po and we couldn’t afford his bail.

Have you tried the peanut butter on the shower wall trick? I saw the ā€œlife hackā€ thing go around facebook, but my sister actually did it (dog-safe PB, no xylitol obviously). Her puggle hates baths, too, but she said this worked like a charm and he didn’t budge. Although, he’s a smaller dog. Big dog, you might have to use a whole jar of peanut butter. LOL.

This has to be the most bizarre thread on the internet. From humping table lamps to smearing peanut butter on walls within a single monitor screen. I beginning to worry. Maybe vaping isn’t safe. Maybe there are long term effects that science hasn’t stumbled across as of yet.

You may be right. I guess I’ll go back to life with chlorines, fluorines, herbicides, pesticides, genetically engineered crops, and lots of carcinogens mixed in our chemical stews. Oops, like a friend once said:ā€œtoo late, my (edit) already fell off.ā€ So I guess I’ll just keep vaping.

Lol, yup. Imagine if you will going to a vape convention. The first two people you meet you ask ā€œwhat do you do?ā€ to make conversation. One answers ā€œI like to smear peanut butter on walls and give my dog a bathā€ and the other answers " I hump table lamps". I’m not sure I would venture further.

But the peanut butter thing is a great idea and I’m definitely going to try it. Both dogs are 85 lbs each and hate baths. Maybe if my wife smears some Frank’s Hot Sauce on the wall she can get me in the tub too!
Edit: maybe some FA butter too.

OMG no! Back to table lamps, farm animals, boyfriends, girlfriends, sundry things I don’t even want to know about. Have mercy!

Whoops. Yes, I need to remember the rules. I still get confused (mostly because he does seem to soil himself just about anywhere…)
