That would be the EPA

Lol. My dad bought one of those Alexa things from Amazon. I told him with as often as he goes on political rants he's going to end up getting a knock on the door because of that thing. I think he just got it to talk to since he's retired now and mom still works..lol

Installed and working. Moved up from the old thermostat location for reasons you can see here. I would love to know what the hell someone was thinking in the past. There are I think three 2x4s together behind the wall right there. They were drilled through to get the wires out but then someone dug about an inch or so into the first one for some damn reason. Drilled a new hole with a long spade bit and relocated...closer to eye height now anyway. Now I just gotta decide what to do with the hole. I'm thinking just some mesh and mud then paint, leave the hole behind it.

Probably bad lighting, gold paint must not show up well in photographs.

The walls are a yellow, but much more muted than that. Just the lighting and color balance on the phone camera

CFLs are murder on color balance.

After reading the reviews I bought this instead of the Yeti tumbler. $23 less and it's the exact same just Walmart brand. Not bad for under $10.

Nice. I have a yeti tumbler like that but only because I got it for like $20. My buddy has several of their tumblers and coozies and at least two coolers. No way in hell I can justify spending that much on coolers and crap.

My thoughts exactly... I don't ever spend a month at a time in the Alaskan wilderness without anything near me. Thorntons always has more ice.

The yeti coldster or whatever is awesome got one as a gift last week. Beer has never been colder.
